This is a scary unit, but I think it needs to be put in perspective. There is one team that had Hunt and the current team that doesn't. They are 2 very different offenses.
PPG with Hunt (11 games) - 36.7, PPG without Hunt (including playoffs) 32 PPG
Mahomes with Hunt - 264/391 67.5% 3628 yards 9.3YPA 37 TDs 10 Ints 117.9 Passer Rating
Mahomes without Hunt - 146/230 63.5% 1747 yards 7.6YPA 13 TDs 2 Ints 102 Passer Rating
Also just for reference the average PPG defense KC faced in the first 11 games was 16.9th overall. In the last six games it was 15.8th overall. So they have faced on average a slightly better D in the last 6 games than the first 11, but it is virtually the same caliber of defense on the whole.
Going by the numbers ever since they lost hunt this O has come back down to earth a bit. Before Hunt got left they were held at or under 31 PPGs only 4 times in 11 games. Since losing Hunt they have been held at or under 4 times in the last 6 games.
3 of the 4 games they were held at or under 31 points were at Arrowhead. So it isn't like they get a huge offense boost playing at home. Full disclosure. 4 of their last 6 games were at home. So that may be slightly misleading.
Perhaps most important of all. With Hunt a record of 9-2. Without Hunt a record of 4-2 that also features an overtime win.
