Upgraded Chiefs wide receiver corps primed to succeed in 2015 from Chiefs Digest

The Chiefs coaching staff spent the past two seasons scheming ways to create explosive plays and get wide receivers open.

The 2015 receiver corps looks like it has a chance to break that trend to create an offense that can beat a defense one-on-one, as well as get in the end zone.

It's hard to find a louder place in America than Arrowhead Stadium when the Chiefs are rocking and rolling.

Like with every team, the Chiefs have question marks going into camp, but on paper, they have a club that should challenge for the AFC West championship. The West is a tough division, but if the Chiefs stay healthy they have just as good a chance as any of their rivals.
