Pride often goeth before a fall, so I'm not putting much stock in the whole THE CHIEFS ARE BACK, BABY! thing.

Yes, they had a good week ... against a banged-up 2-5 Raiders squad.

Yes, they seem to be clicking on offense now that they have Xavier Worthy and Rashee Rice back, with some newer players having picked up valuable experience and field time during their absences.

Yes, Travis Kelce and Isaiah Pacheco both seem to be back in form and Mahomes is showing the improv/scramble panache he's known for.

But we're still less than halfway through the season and there's plenty of time for the wheels to come off.
