I guess you'll see next week but don't be surprised if forced to throw he'll go off. Even the other day he had 3tds to Henry's 1.
He’s not “going off” chap. He’s ****ed, congrats getting this far but exit stage left. Enjoy the moment because your time is coming and there’s nothing you can do about it. You’re merely a speed bump on the way to a title. It’s our turn. [Reply]

It's going to be tough coming back against a run-first team that Mahomes torched for 450+ earlier in the season?
I don't want to start out slowly either, but this is an odd statement. [Reply]
I think it's funny that Titans fans are on here laughing at the overconfidence of the Chiefs fans, yet go to their message board and read and EVERYONE there expects the Titans to dominate the Chiefs in Arrowhead and roll into the Super Bowl. :-)
Yeah, cause the Titans just 'dominated' the Chiefs in Week 10. Lol. Chiefs put up, what, 500+ total yards offense? Couldn't stop them then. Chiefs were missing several key players and it still took two fluky special teams gaffes in the last 5 minutes of the game for them to pull it out.
So, again, lol. More power to you all if you really believe you're gonna come in here and roll us next Sunday.

We’ve seen it happen. They have the offensive line and Henry to keep it out of Mahomes hands. I’m not saying it’s guaranteed but I’d rather they start out strong. [Reply]

I was actually thinking that when we were down 21-0 and they picked up that 3rd down near our 20.
I'm standing there thinking "okay, hold them to a FG here, get a score, get a stop, get a score. Go into half down 24-14, score on the opening possession and at 24-21, they'll be heeled and we've got a good shot. But man, if this were the Titans, we'd probably be in a world of shit right now..."
Because yeah, you spot TN a 21 point lead and they can do a lot to bleed the clock on you.
I agree 100% with Andy to defer to the 2nd half precisely because it allows you to do what KC did yesterday. And I think I'd do it if the Chiefs win the toss next week. Buuuuuut....against TN I'd think a little harder. There's a real advantage to getting out in front of them early and as much as a 10-0 lead against them might be more valuable than a chance to double-dip over the halves. [Reply]

It's NOT gonna happen, but I would agree that IF the Chiefs got down 24-0 against the Titans, like they did the Texans, they would probably be screwed.
Now that being said, there's NO ****ING WAY that happens.
The first quarter against the Texans was every bit fluky. The final 3 quarters proved that out.
The week 10 4th quarter against the Titans was fluky. The Chiefs dominated the majority of that game. Even with injuries and it just being Mahomes first game back from the knee injury.
If both teams show up and play their 'A' game, Chiefs win walking away. It would take a C- effort from the Chiefs and some other fluky shit to lose this game. Not saying it's not ENTIRELY IMPOSSIBLE, but, yeah, it's not happening.
Chiefs will be in the Super Bowl in 3 weeks. Mark it down. [Reply]
If anything, they'd be better served to come out playing with a bit of confidence and moxie. That first quarter was an abomination of scared, anxious, and desperate football from the coaching staff on down, with the surprising exceptions of Mahomes and Reid. [Reply]

"We're gonna run the ball and be physical with our game manager QB and play good defense" how many years did we do that shit and get beat by the team with the elite QB? [Reply]
