Trust me, you’d rather have the Chiefs defense than the Seattle D ! (Aside from the last game.)
-
Off to my nightcap. If I don’t catch y’all during the Gonzaga game, everybody have a good (and safe) Thanksgiving !
-
@nwhawkfan back at ya!
-
I am so grateful to have Mahomes as Chiefs QB.
-
@AsadZ and Kelce, hill, big red and … now for the D kinda mad at them! Mahomes can’t pull them out all the time, or can he?‍️ Did like dirty dans pick! that was our circling the field!
-
Gruden and Carr have us figured out. Multiple TE sets to force us to have a shitty LB in, run the ball, and dump it off on a blitz to a mismatch.
-
I’m old school. I think the NFL & Super Bowl MVP should be able to throw further than 5 yards. Oh wait - he makes too much money now. All he has to do is hand the ball off to the running backs.
-
@nuleafjhawk what are you even talking about?
-
@Kcmatt7 I don’t know. You have to have a point to say something?
What I’m talking about is that the Chiefs offense is completely different (as in boring) from last year. Mahomes never throws a long ball any more. He’s got two good running backs that are making him less spectacular as a QB. In my opinion.
-
@nuleafjhawk I think every single Chief would prefer less excitement if it comes with a 90% winning percentage. PM got hurt twice last year being more spectacular.
But, in any event, I think it is damned exciting to see the LSU guy running–yet another weapon! As for PM, if you find him boring you may have missed the last 3 games. 11 TDs, 1136 yards passing, 122+ rating… Averaging over 300 yards per game this year: doesn’t seem too pedestrian to me.
-
@mayjay Don’t get me wrong, I’m a huge fan of his. But, you cannot tell me, if you watch every game, that he is fun to watch this year. It’s not that hard to get 300 yards per game (I’m not looking at stats - but I saw that he attempted 45 passes against LV) when you complete 35 passes per game. Thirty-five short passes.
I’m happy that they’re winning, but what happens when one of the running backs gets hurt?
-
Watching mahomes in that last series was pretty dang fun! Game is never over with him. Plus he didn’t need to leave much time for Carr.
-
Literally if anyone else were having this same season we’d be in awe.
But because Pat did what he did two years ago we want more.

He has taken over as the front runner for the MVP and it’s kinda blasé for some people lol.

Raiders hungover af after losing their superbowl.

They were awful against the Falcons
-
I was, literally, thinking the same thing - they (especially Carr) looked hungover. With that in mind, is Vegas even a city - given the penchant that some NFL players have for partying, gambling and going to strip joints - where you can win consistently?

Was this week up to your standard?
-
@Kcmatt7 I missed the game (4 hrs on I-95 to go 135 miles…), but it sure sounded boring. Hope Mahomes doesn’t regress further.
-
How fun is watching a surgeon operate? Gross!
-
@Kcmatt7 LOL - I wasn’t going to say anything, BUT - since you mentioned it. I was WAAAY happy in the 1st quarter. Then they went into Andy Reid’s patented “wait and see” mode. Overall, I was pretty disappointed (discouraged?) that they had - what - 600 yards of offense and only won by 3.
They’ve got some work to do. But - honestly, wasnt that fun to watch him throw down the field ?? It sure was for me!
-
@nuleafjhawk They came out playing single-high safety M2M. Which is why the first quarter was so electric.
Then they were forced to go cover two, and with the Chiefs it is basically cover 4 when you see how far off the CBs are lol.
Which is where you get the dink and dunk offense.
I was mostly mad at Andy for not going for it 4th and one the first drive. Pat had the fumble in the redzone too. The game could have been over in the first half if not for those two plays.
-
@Kcmatt7 You think more than I do. (most people do!) I was totally perplexed about the 4th and one call.
-
Don’t forget the 90-yard TD that should have been to Mecole Hardman that Mahomes mis-fired on. This game really should have not been close. I think the Chiefs get bored sometimes.
-
@tis4tim I totally forgot about that. Yea I told a buddy that this was one of the most dominating 3 point wins you will ever see.
-
@tis4tim Spot on with the “bored” comment. When we’re down 10-14 points is when I feel the most confident. Truly.
-
Agreed. Watching that game you never felt like Tampa had a chance yet the scoreboard said otherwise.
-
I’ll tell you what: it’s nice to have the world-beater QB on our side for once and a team that is not only built to win championships, but oozes with confidence. So much so that they are never out of it and, as evidenced by their SB run last year, never think they are out of it no matter how dire the circumstances.
I can’t tell you how crushing it was for several decades watching us score 40 points and lose or watching a late scoring drive by the Chiefs to take the lead only to know how the movie ends with Elway or Manning or (fill-in-the-blank) on the other side of the ball, or needing a single first-down to ice the game and seeing us go 3-and-out, punt and lose.
The scenario we have with Mahomes and the Chiefs is sooooo refreshing. I hope the next 10-12 years go the way the past 3 years have gone.
-
@tis4tim Don’t forget the inspiring Elvis Grbac two-minute drills, needing 40 yards to get into FG range with no timeouts and throwing passes over the middle for 3 yards.
-
I had forgotten. Thanks for the reminder.
Seriously, the only thing I really recall of Elvis Grbage was the season he got injured and missed something like 9 games. Rich Gannon filled in and won 7 or 8 in a row to get us into the playoffs. Grbage promptly returns from injury and Schottenheimer starts him that first playoff game insisting that he is the starter and you don’t lose your status due to injury.
So instead of going with the hot hand you play a guy whose been out for 9 weeks. Predictably, we lose that game and we’re out of the playoffs. I liked Marty but that was one of the most inexcusably bad decisions I can recall him making in his time with the Chiefs.

I remember people saying it was damned lucky for Lou Gehrig that Marty wasn’t his manager.

Would have been Wally Pipp-ed for sure!
