Must be strange...Lock growing up a Chiefs fan then playing for the Donks.
I wonder if his childhood indoctrination was strong enough that he still roots for them...
Speaking of which...what ever happened to Shane Ray? Must have been weird to walk around the Denver LR with a Chiefs arrowhead tattooed on your back.
*edit* After the Donks refused to pick up his 5th year option...Ray signed with the Ravens...only to be cut before the season. He hasn't played since. Strange career to be a 1st round pick...then never play again after 4 years. I dont remember him being great...but he seemed serviceable enough to have a role with a team. Another Horseface 1st round pick that didn't get an extension...he just declined Bolles this year. How many is that?...that's the recipe for a last place roster.
Game will probably be closer than last year's tilt....they've been hyping up the 10 straight narrative for motivation. Let's hope the streak of having a TD removed for ticky-tack holding doesn't extend to 3 straight games. Refs haven't been kind in both division games so far...
I want to see Bell and CEH in the same backfield...in the snow. [Reply]
I look for Harris to have a solid showing, he’s probably highly motivated given that he hasn’t gotten a chance to dress out this year. I expect good things there. [Reply]

Think we're going to run a lot again in this game. Not 65% carries, but not going to be shocked if we run more than pass again.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see the pass used heavily.
Recent history shows that Mahomes throws insanely well in the snow, and his weapons are even harder to cover due to the footing issues that come with it.
It’s also harder to rush the passer. I wouldn’t be shocked by anything. It’ll ultimately come down to the looks the Denver defense gives. [Reply]

Anything is possible. But I do know it's hard to use your hands after just a few minutes when the temp drops down to single digits. I can see throwing being an issue, as well as catching. I see that they aren't expecting much wind, so that's mitigating, but 8 degrees is going to be tough to play through. [Reply]

I’m confused on the temp part, on NFL Live today they were saying it would be 21 degrees. Same on the basic google search. :-) [Reply]
