Chiefs season long game thread
-
Oh it kind of sucks that this is the “season long game thread” and I locked it. On second thought im unlocking it. Please consider separating out a thread where appropriate.
-
So record predictions for the team this year?
-
Go Chiefs! Thx @approxinfinity for keeping our game thread active.
-
Finally CBS switched to the Chiefs!
-
Come on secondary!
-
Come on D linemen and linebackers, too!
-
Mahomes with a pick. Couldn’t follow thru. Was that the first pass to Mecole?
The way things were going before the pick, I was thinking the D will need to at least once keep ‘em from scoring.
Now maybe twice.
-
Hmm, Rice is a good YACer.
-
Dang Kelce, death grip! D much better!
-
@rockchalkjayhawk ?? YACer. Didn’t see mecole go in.

Ha. YAC=yards after catch.
I’m getting excited about Rice’s potential. Seems to have a spark.

I like Justin Reid

I
️ the Chiefs! I’m becoming a Swiftie🥰
fan. I don’t listen to her music, but I love her bf! He’s playing great!
-
Good team win today. D really stepped up huge in the 2nd half.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk Kelce counted as TE, Rice has become WR1 which is extraordinary for a rookie in this offense.
-
How about a big shoutout to Butker, he has been really solid.
-
I get a feeling that Chiefs vs Dolphins in Germany will become a key factor in AFC #1 seeding.
-
MVS saying the receivers stepped up this game and put up 31 points. Umm the receivers had 13 receptions for 178 yards. Kelce had 12 receptions for 179.
Kelce is the man!
-
Bolton out for 2 months. Needs surgery on the dislocated wrist. Boo! hiss!
-
oh man. that sucks. he’s great.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk I wish we could re-name this team. It’s offensive and degrading.
Charger is the name of a horse trained for battle. As in the calvary. Do we really need to glorify these angry, war hungry, bloodthirsty animals by slapping their name across a football jersey? Of course, a charger could also be a plate. Don’t even get me started on how we’ve abused plates over the centuries…
Lighten up people.
-
Justyn Ross arrested on felony criminal damage charge over $25,000. No details I could find but I can’t see the KC Star any more. This stuff seems to follow our teams around lately…
-
Unfortunately most of these young men have not had good role models.
-
Even worse, sounds like a domestic violence situation.
-
From a comment to the article in The Athletic:
The headline is wrong. The Johnson County Sheriff’s Office booking report states that he was arrested by the Shawnee Police Department on a charge of criminal damage to property of more than $1000 but less than $25,000. (Someone did not know how to read the > and < symbols.)
-
@mayjay This hurts although Chiefs are deep at LB and Tranquill played well in his absence. He will have to shoulder the responsibility.

Another source says the statute cited deals with damage to an ATM or similar “dispensing” equipment.
-
-
New court documents released Tuesday show he’s being charged with domestic battery and criminal damage.
Both charges are misdemeanors. The first report was that Ross was arrested and could face felony charges. The original police records also say his criminal damage amounted to over $1,000 and under $25,000. That has been adjusted to under $1,000 in criminal damage. Ross’ arraignment was previously set for 1:30 p.m. That was pushed back an hour to 2:30 p.m. Tuesday.

It’s a pattern https://x.com/sammcdowell11/status/1716846328976695360?s=46&t=c0LiaNrxev6XfT7LIH8dAQ
What’s a pattern?
-
Whatever happens in court, do the Chiefs part ways with him?
If so, anybody out there we can sign?

This Chiefs team could end up being historically good.
For those without twitter
Kansas City Chiefs are the first team to be top 5 in all three phases as of Week 7 since the 1999 Rams!
No 4 offense No 5 defense No 2 special teams
Others: 1984 Redskins, 1985 Bears, 1990 Giants, 1991 Redskins, 1996 Packers.
Every one of those teams except the 84 Redskins won the superbowl.
-
Looks like Justyn Ross is out for awhile. Basically suspended with pay on the exempt list.
-
I do not see this impacting Chiefs much if any at all.
On a brighter note, Watson is back practicing.
-
nope, me neither.
-
Ross was practicing today.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I believe he can practice but not play in, or attend, games. The descriptions in various articles are all over the place. Since everything is still pending and he is still paid, that arrangement seems logical.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Scratch my last comment. Apparently he cannot practice either. I do believe he can work out and get medical/trainer care.
Not sure how this fits in with your info! Maybe he practiced Fri before it was announced.
-
I’d like to know Ross’ side of the story, but “dragging” someone thru your house isn’t the best look. - I’d cut him if there isn’t more to the story and probably even if there is. Zero tolerance for Domestic Violence.

Exempt list rules
What Can You Do While on Commissioner’s Exempt List?
The rules while being on the Commissioner’s Exempt List are set and clear. An NFL player who is on the Exempt List cannot participate in any football activities during that time.
Although the player cannot participate in practice or attend games, they are allowed to be present at the facility for meetings, and workouts and receive treatment if needed.
The players are also paid while on the list. It’s not considered a punishment that comes with a financial loss and is used more as a placeholder for the league to gather further information before they absolve or slap down punishment on a player.
-
Anyone else think Denver might be a close game today? Mahomes is recovering from the flu and for Denver this is their super bowl game. After today, the Chiefs travel to Germany to play the Dolphins, then play the Eagles. I sure hope our guys don’t forget Denver has just enough talent and energy to upset an unfocused Chiefs’ team.
-
I expect a close boring game
-
Well shit. Maybe literally about Mahomes! Sucks.
If by chance he doesn’t play, think the Chiefs can still win games?
-
Yes, Denver.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk It will be challenging but possible, D will need to step up even bigger.
-
Just read that Mahomes will play, he has been getting IVs
-
What a poor start. Jeez. Townsend had the flu and had to try to tackle the runnner. Not a good start
-
Butker had the flu
-
Mahomes flu game; so far not so good.
