Chiefs playoffs thread

@mayjay How does a lack of playoff success affect what people think about Barry Sanders? Or Champ Bailey? Tony Gonzalez? Randy Moss? Calvin Johnson? Junior Seau? Bruce Smith? The reality is that if you’re not a QB, no one puts wins and losses into that discussion. I’m not naive in thinking the QB plays a role that is different, but it’s not the only position that produces excellence in leadership.

Precisely as it should be. QB is the leader of the offense, which on a win must have more points than the other team. QB handles 95 to 99% of snaps, is charged with reading the defense and adjusting play calls if needed, and has long been considered the general on the field. RBs and the other positions do not handle the ball or make decisions on virtually every play.
Would you prefer QB reputations to be divorced from whether they win games or not? I can hear those discussions in my nightmares… “Allen threw more TDs in the games they played, so he was greater than Mahomes.” “But Mahomes led the Chiefs further in the playoffs!” “That doesn’t matter–the QB does not deserve to be considered the winner, so Allen can’t be the loser.”

All I know this game is hyped about being one of the ages. We couldn’t have done it w/out Kelce, cheetah, Hartman and even buttkicker, lol! It would’ve been easier w/the honey badger! The 2 qb’s broke records, but we need our receivers to help. Gonna be a fun couple of years watching these new young guns.

Jeff George. Incredible arm. Does that jersey have all of the grass stains on the back from the million times he was sacked due to his horrid O line?

I had a conversation with a 10 year old boy once (circa 1991-2) who just idolized Vinny despite … well, despite Vinny. No stats, no team records, no miserable performances could break that allegiance. Vinny looked cool, and that was that.
If you had a Vinny TBay jersey, well, now you’re talking…

It’s more stressful to be a spectator. I relate.

@tundrahok dang, mine was just the opposite! 3 nights in a row. Non-stop spiking.

@Crimsonorblue22 You should have been on the field. Less stressful to play than watch!

I saw that stat earlier today. Had to reread it several times to make sure It said what I thought it said. Absolutely mind-blowing. Grim Reaper indeed.
-
We should know! Jayhawks and Chiefs!
-
@focojayhawk Jeff George? You mean the guy who got hurt his freshmen year at Purdue and his mom ran onto the field?
-
Can Chiefs contain Burrow and stud wide receivers. Last time Chiefs were torched. How will KC respond today.
Burrow made some comments earlier in the week with regards to noise level a non factor inside Arrowhead compared to SEC.
I expect decibel level to be a bit higher today.

Go Chiefs
