The Chiefs are generally a matchup to avoid for quarterbacks. They're 11th in EPA per dropback and ninth in YPA allowed. Only four teams are giving up fewer fantasy points per game. Penix's slump is also becoming hard to ignore. After a few bad games, he's down to 17th in EPA per dropback and a staggering 27th in CPOE.
