Because of all the interest in this thread, I've place all of the video content of Patrick Mahomes II's college career, and draft day goodness into a single post that can be found here. Enjoy! [Reply]

I know I'm starting Sammy and I suggest everybody else does as well.
He's the only Chief I don't have on my team. When we have a bye I'll just write that week off. But it won't matter, by then I'll be the clear #1 seed. [Reply]

Even then you can only hope to do that for so long. Can’t get pressure there every play. Jags could only do that for one half in the AFCCG.
Man that Jags game is going to be the litmus test. Broncos, Bengals and Browns defense will be a nice test as well.

Yeah the Rams don’t have a Dante Fowler or Yannick Ngakoue on the edge or a Telivn Smith/Myles Jack in the middle or a Taven Bryan coming off the bench.
Thats why when we play the Rams, the Jax, or the Broncos, we need to extablish the run and use a little play action. The Chiefs have the rare ability of offense to adapt to the type of defense they are playing in a given week. And with guys like Hill and Watkins, I don't think you ever stop throwing the deep ball.

Jags defense has more sheer talent than LAR. But Phillips is a good coach.
I think Jacksonville is tougher, though. It’d be one thing if LA had even decent edge rushers or ILB play. They’re actually pretty poor at those spots and a coach like Reid with the weapons at his disposal will take advantage of that. [Reply]
