lol well, he's certainly no Grey Zabel.

Honestly, I'd be a little worried about the Chiefs myself. Their defense got pushed around & bullied last week. :wink:

Gave up 270 yards on the ground.

The defense won't need to be as good as it has been the past 2 seasons. Chiefs are going back to the 2019 and 2020 days when Tyreek Hill was there. Showtime is going back to airing it out and throwing downfield all the time.

If that's the case, then I'd be even less enthusiastic about their chances this year.

No, I just think trying to copy the Bengals model, is not a winning recipe. :wink:

Mahomes can throw for 5K. But if they're not a balanced team, they won't win. That's pretty much a given.

Pacheco missed a lot of time and played hurt all year. Did you forget he broke his leg last year. He's healthy now. They will be fine. You know how that works. You guys can't keep Walker or any of your RB's healthy over the years so we know how that works out for you guys.

You've got to be able to run the ball & be solid defensively if you want a chance to really compete. That's what wins at the end of the day. The good teams are able to do both (Eagles).

If not, then you end up going 9-8 & miss out on the playoffs (Cincinnati).

It's really that simple.

Chiefs have been in 5 of the last 6 Super Bowls. Its that simple. There is a reason for it. :rolleyes: You need another cup of coffee first.

The Chiefs won because they we're balanced offensively & their defense was very good on top of it. It's a simple formula.

lol you know I'm right.

Hard for any team to win when you get away with 18 holding calls. Seattle paid the officials off.

Well, most seem to forget it wasn't just poor O-lineman play and some injuries, but Rice was also out all year with a knee injury and Pacheco missed time and was hurt all year with a broken leg. In the past most team get somewhat of a pass when they lose their top WR and RB the whole year. But not the Chiefs.

I didn't forget but certain people forgot when they bet $2000 on the Chiefs to win the SB.
