Could the Chiefs’ defensive line coach actually play a bigger part in this week’s game plan? Cullen came to Kansas City from the Jaguars, where he was the defensive coordinator in 2021. Most people scoffed at that fact when the Chiefs brought him in, but for all the poor performance that occurred in Jacksonville, they had a remarkable performance against one key opponent. That opponent, of course, was Josh Allen and the Bills.
Fun fact. #Chiefs DL coach Joe Cullen was the Jaguars defensive coordinator last year that held Buffalo to six points, 6 of 15 on 3rd down, 229 passing, 72 rushing, forced 3 turnovers and 4 sacks. pic.twitter.com/6CiAbAw62N

Allen was held to 31-of-47 for 246 yards and two interceptions in that game. Allen was sacked four times for 35 yards, he fumbled twice and he lost one of the fumbles. Cullen’s defense had him playing the most disjointed football that he has played since his rookie season. That’s the type of performance that the defense needs to force in Week 6 to give the Chiefs the best shot at winning the game. Will Steve Spagnuolo be able to draw anything from Cullen’s game plan to help slow down Buffalo’s offense? Maybe a specific game up front or an effective blitz that they used. It’s definitely worth keeping an eye on.
