2024 NFL Season

@nuleafjhawk mahomes is trying to heal up his bad ankle. You did know he was injured? Most of the guys that sat out were injured.

@kjayhawks I’m not convinced that sitting the starters Sunday was a great idea. They get out of sync, out of rhythm. Plus they get a bye game. Chiefs lose big in their next game. Take it to the bank. Like Mahomes’ paycheck
The Chiefs won the Super Bowl resting Mahomes last season and went to the Super Bowl in 2023 after resting starters the final week.

Nuttin wrong with resting the players IMO. Long ass season. Mahomes hurt, etc. Rest will be a good thing. However, that Broncos score was painful regardless. I would have hoped for more from the team, however many backups were playing. an NFL shutout? Practically unheard of.
-
@Kcmatt7 it’s just my opinion. They’re going to have 3 weeks (?) off. Practice is not like full contact, game situation football. I don’t know that I’m the Patrick Mahomes of what I do, but I’m really good at my job. After a two week vacation, I’m worthless for a while. It takes time to get back into “game mode”.
I hope I’m wrong. I hope they’re rested and healthy and kick butt. But I won’t be surprised if they don’t.

Okay but using your own analogy they aren’t even off of work. They didn’t all go vacation in Cancun for 3 weeks. There is still structure they are adhering to.

I trust Andy Reid to keep team together and ready to play in the playoffs
-
The fact that we are catching flak for resting our starters in a meaningless (for us) week 17 game proves two things
-
We live rent free in other fanbases heads to an unprecedented degree
-
NFL fans are VERY stupid.
Resting your starters on the last week when you have nothing to play for is standard practice and has NEVER been controversial. I don’t even think the nationally hated Patriots were ever criticized for it in the 2010s. I guess we are now the greatest villains in football history BWAHAHA

@Jhawk69 Bengal’s tears are nearly as tasty as Tiger tears! Certainly very salty!!!

Every team in the league has more or less done this historically as well. Very selective outrage and/or people have short memories.

-
@BShark The Bengals are resting all their players this week! Hypocrites!!!
-
I listened to the New Heights podcast the other day and all the people yaking about the chiefs throwing the game has pissed off Kelce pretty hardcore. If yall remember the great playoffs he had last season after a very average regular season. It’s about to happen again I think. He has been saving himself for big games in this stage of his career. Everyone just keep talking and adding fuel to the fire. The chiefs are about ready to be rested and healthier than they been all year.
-
I think the Steelers are silly for benching Fields I’m sorry but Wilson is way past his prime and made some very silly decisions tonight. A guy has to wonder if he has played his final game as a starter in the NFL
-
How about Chargers melting down in Houston.
4 INTs for Herbert.
-
Well unfortunately I think my boys Season comes to the end today.- -We got the task of playing Philly in Philly ( 14- 3 ) @ 3:30 .
We played them the 1st game of the year and lost 34 --29, just a bad match up- -Hurts is playing- And the stud RB more then anything, just don’t think we are stopping him- -I think he finished right at 2,000 yards rushing didn’t he ?
Think it would just have to be out scoring them in a slug fest even though Josh Jacobs has been really good for us I just don’t feel without Watson & not sure about Dobbs - -two key receivers - -Watson for sure ACL -Afraid I’m going to have to say we probably get beat by two TD’S- -Welp there is always next year lol
-
Good one going in Buffalo.
Denver has found its QB in Bo Nix.

2025 AFC West offseason champs! I’m declaring it now to get ahead of the media. lol the hype is real!!!
-
Great game in Philly, Stafford almost pulled out magic but a sack sealed his fate
-
Maybe the Bears have a coach at long last. @FarmerJayhawk What do you think?
-
@wissox Good hire.
-
@dylans I think Caleb Williams hired him actually from what it appears.
-
@wissox He was the hottest offensive coordinator option. I believe he will help Caleb immensely. How he manages the rest of the team? His coordinator hires will be telling.
-
To elaborate a bit. Both risky and smart to not go the retread route. McCarthy isn’t winning in the playoffs. Carol is good, but a pretty short term option. Other known options were less appealing. I’d say it was a good hire.
-
Kelce went out and bought a 3.3 million dollar house to help for homeless kids have a place to stay - - this coming off his 46 million contract extension --Some people DO STILL CARE Thank you Travis
-
@SlimShaddy54 if he really cared, he’d buy ME a 3.3 million dollar house. Somewhere warm
Jk - that’s great
-
@nuleafjhawk ya I wish someone could or would do that for me also lol. Yes it’s good to see we as a people some anyways do still have some compassion

I’m stoked! Dennis Allen as DC is a really smart play as well. He flamed out as a HC but is a really good coordinator.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Yeah, I think we can start to dream of better days.
