There is no denying the Kansas City Chiefs were put in their place by the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX.

Jalen Hurts and his side came out 40-22 winners, but even that score is flattering, as at one point Philadelphia found themselves up 40-6.

The heavy defeat showed that while the Chiefs had success this past season, more is needed if they want to add another trophy to their cabinet.

Despite that, the Chiefs haven’t made any big splashes so far during free agency. In fact, they decided to trade two-time First-Team All-Pro guard Joe Thuney to the Chicago Bears – a move many feel weakens what was already a poor offensive line.

While there is still plenty of time to reshape the roster, especially with the NFL Draft a little over a month away, Dominique Foxworth doesn’t think the Chiefs are making the right moves so far.

In fact, he went so far as to state that the moves the Chiefs have made so far are hurting Patrick Mahomes.

“I watched the Super Bowl. That man looked like a victim to me. I assumed that it was obvious, like the Bears, it was obvious what they had to address. O-line. The Bears went and did it. The Chiefs lost their best o-lineman,” Foxworth said while speaking with Molly Qerim.

“Their guard, who was also their best tackle, left, and the way they answered it was by getting a backup tackle from the 49ers to be… his blind side protection. It does feel like they’ve failed him.”

Not everyone hates what the Chiefs are doing

Along with trading Thuney, the Chiefs have brought in Jaylon Moore on a two-year contract despite the fact he’s only made 12 starts in his four-year NFL career.

It’s a sign that the Chiefs continue to tinker with their offensive line ever since Mahomes was chased around by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in their Super Bowl LV defeat.

While the moves have raised some eyebrows, Jason McCourty believes that what the Chiefs are going through is simply part of the game.

“When you’re building a dynasty you’re going to lose players. That’s just the fact of the matter… Tyreek Hill, they watched him walk out of the door. Orlando Brown was another guy. Last year, L’Jarius Sneed left, and we talked about the hole that left in the secondary,” said McCourty.

“All season long we talked about how they need to find a replacement at cornerback. They never did, and this was still a team playing in the Super Bowl. I think part of building this dynasty is you have to find ways. “
