NFL Season - 2023

@Crimsonorblue22 I was! The compromise in my grandparents marriage way back when was they’d raise Bears football and Cardinals baseball fans (they were married before the Chiefs or Royals were a thing) and it’s carried on since. The Super Bowl was before I was born but thankful for YouTube

@FarmerJayhawk Super Bowl shuffle!

@kjayhawks said in NFL Season - 2023:
No idea why Fields had some MVP talk in the offseason. His passer rating was trash last season and is this season.
Amen. I’m wondering why on earth I drafted Fields in my fantasy football league. I benched him for Geno and just picked up Stroud…Two very middle of the road QBs. Hard to believe Fields is my 2 or 3rd choice among those three.
-
99 yards passing last game. Youch Not sure if he’s salvageable or not at this point. Too bad.
-
@bskeet Many analysts have been praising him and his talent.
-
@AsadZ Analyst have garbage takes most the time. The same analysts saying the chiefs weren’t making the playoffs last season and the broncos were going to roll. I’m a numbers guy and there are flat out zero statistics that suggest he’s even a top 20 QB in the nfl right now. He’s a good runner, that’s it.
-
The way the dolphins v bills game started I was hoping for a no punt game!
-
Whew, are the Jets that good or did the Chiefs nearly lay another egg? (Lions)
Mahomes with an unusual amount of unforced errors yesterday.
I stand firmly by my preseason rant that the Chiefs are in a Super Bowl window with Mahomes, but they are seemingly intentionally sandbagging him with no serviceable wide receivers. Why??? I don’t get it.

That’s spot on, that’s what I been telling my friend, I am just not impressed with their receivers. Other then Kelce, none of them if I was the opponent, would scare me.- If they don’t make it - -that’s gonna be why
-
Jets D is legit
Their scheme was excellent to slow down PM
Mahomes made couple of bad decisions, should have thrown it away, he gets greedy at times.
I concur that Chiefs don’t have an alpha receiver but I still believe they can be really good with experience and if they avoid costly mistakes.
-
Good chance we have the top 2 picks let’s goooo
-
Fields and co looking salty early (again)!
-
@FarmerJayhawk Fingers crossed. It’d be nice to close one out.
-
@wissox Butkus’s ghost won’t let us lose this one (I think)
-
@FarmerJayhawk sorry! RIP
-
@FarmerJayhawk Him and Gayle Sayers are the two Bear players that I wish I could have watched. You tube videos are amazing. He was such a great ambassador for the game.
-
@wissox Mike Singletary was amazing.
-
@wissox same! Sayers is my favorite player of all time. From tiny, tiny Speed, Kansas which is about 45 minutes from where I grew up.
-
@mayjay Agreed, but I’m old enough to have seen Singletary, never saw Butkus or Sayers. From everything I’ve read Butkus was probably the GOAT linebacker.
-
Chiefs D is playing better than O.
Hopefully O can figure things out as season goes along.
How about niners smacking C Boys.
-
@AsadZ Yeah. The wr are young and not the best.
-
@AsadZ mahomes looked better, got sacked more though, not good. Trav looked good and was it Watson that had that sweet catch? I think our receivers are getting better. Need BellDozer for those short yardage plays, something needs to change there!
-
How much impact is caused by new O coordinator
Reid is still calling shots and Nagy has been around but the style is very different than EB.
Are players taking time to adjust
-
Yea, the O still seems a bit disjointed.
I do like the way Pacheco is running hard.
Other than a few drops yesterday, at least the WRs were involved in the game plan. We can’t seem to do much with them deep yet.
We had a K. Toney sighting! He runs hard after the catch, too.
Is it the inability to get open in mid to deep routes? Mahomes sits back there and looks and looks sometimes.
-
MVS needs to step up for deep balls.

Pretty much what he was brought in to do!
