The best way to negate their running game is for our offense to come out crisp and put points up early.

I welcome a shootout. Let’s see if a running game can match up with our passing offense in a high scoring game. I’m fine with this looking like the 2003 Colts vs Chiefs

After winning in Houston, Ravens won't have to play outside eastern time zone the rest of the regular season.

Ravens won't have to board another flight until Nov. 8 game at Indy.

Over next 6 weeks, Baltimore plays 3 home games, travels to Philly and Washington, and has a bye.

Every game is important with the new playoff setup. Baltimore is a powerhouse with an easier schedule than KC. I don’t see the Ravens losing more than 2-3 games in the regular season.

Chiefs will need to be a lot sharper moving forward if they want to be the #1 seed. 3 of their next 4 games are against teams that are very capable of winning the conference. Gotta play a hell of a lot better than yesterday or it will be 3 quick losses.

You’re right on all points but I disagree on Buffalo.

The AFC is officially a three horse race IMHO. And New England really doesn’t have the weapons I doubt either.

That bye is critical...
[Reply]

If the Chiefs beat Baltimore, they can probably finish 13-3 and still get the bye.

If the Chiefs lose to Baltimore, they probably have to win out to get the bye.
[Reply]

This is obviously the most likely loss on the schedule for us.

Cam Newton isn’t winning a shootout with Mahomes. Russell Wilson cooked their defense, and we have better weapons.

We just won the most difficult divisional game on our schedule. I’m assuming 6-0 in the Division.

Jets, Panthers, @ Dolphins, and Falcons should all be wins.

That leaves @ Buf, @ TB, and @ NO. We’re better than all 3. Significantly better at QB especially.

Win on Monday and I bet we go at least 13-3.
[Reply]

That’s why it’s going to be critical for the Chiefs offense to start fast. Baltimore is night and day different when they are playing from behind vs playing with a lead.
[Reply]

Pretty much how I see it. Baltimore's schedule is really soft. Maybe they lose one to Pittsburgh, and another to either the Patriots or Titans, but that's about it. No other winning teams on their schedule. Best guess is they'll either be 14-2 and own the tie-breaker with us, or be 13-3 and we own it.

Need a Reid masterpiece next Monday.

Yes I know the whole comeback thing has worked well for the Chiefs going back to last season, but it would be nice to jump out to a fast start and seize control of the game early for a change.
[Reply]

There's almost zero chance Baltimore goes 14-2 again, even if they beat the Chiefs. That kind of stuff just doesn't happen in the modern NFL.

The Chargers defense is better than the Ravens at pretty much every level. Their front is much tougher than the Ravens.

If the Chiefs get up early, it looks like last year's game. If they start slow, it looks more like the game from 2 years ago.

This is encouraging from Sammy...

Doing well we all know football is a physical sport and we all are playing pretty fast things happen pretty quickly just happy I came out healthy on the next we will not be denied..! Great team win..! #LIMITLESS14 #SOLAR14

Hell yeah!
[Reply]

Ravens seem to have that "chip on their shoulder" kinda thing the Chiefs did last year.

Chiefs will have to play well or they'll get boat raced.
[Reply]

i know we have a running back now. but we need to do what we do best. passing more to our reiever. look what happened with sd.we started to pass late in the game. reid cannt be so conservitive. do what we do the best pass.
[Reply]

Being conservative early is what opened up those passes. In case you didn't notice, the Chargers were getting pressure on nearly every down only rushing four. Going air raid against that is just asking for trouble.
