The defensive story was more or less the same, fairly mediocre defense overall but the offense made a large jump. Here are the same rankings but prior to the bye week. 

1. Passing Efficiency Allowed (EPA per attempt) - 20th
2. Rushing Efficiency Allowed (EPA per attempt) - 10th
3. Passing Efficiency (EPA per attempt) - 13th
4. Rushing Efficiency (EPA per attempt) - 25th
   

I would not say that the defense held up well against the Chiefs in the regular season. Mahomes dropped a 113 rating on their head with 31 points. They did do a good job in the AFCCG and SB, however. The biggest change after the bye was the offense, there is no doubt about that. 

I think we talked about this before, but I feel like we said the turnovers were the main thing that propelled this team after the bye and especially in the playoffs. Less turnovers by the offense (Burrow) and more turnovers produced by the defense.
