When you read the discussion on here, it really opens your eyes to how lazy the national level analysis is. It’s always the same room temperature IQ bullshit.
The more local level analysis is better for sure, but not great. The national level seems to keep things as simple as possible to bring more causal fans (who don’t specifically watch these two teams) up to speed. [Reply]

Travis is great but Goedert is way better than a mid level TE. [Reply]

I felt okay against SF.
I knew we were fucked against TB.
I feel good about this matchup. [Reply]

I feel really good about the way we match up. Like we win by 10 or 11 pts good. Like we push them around for most of the day kind of good.
I haven't felt this good about how we match up before. The first time I was nervous because, well, first time. Second time my hate for Brady clouded my judgement. I thought we could win but was worried.
I'm not worried at all about this one. We have the better QB, better HC, and we're solid all around. No glaring weak spots. Solid like a Wisconsin farm girl... [Reply]

I think the thing that’s starting to piss me off about you is the complete lack of knowledge or respect for the Chiefs. Everything thing you say, even your compliments, comes off as condescending. You say we’re a “great team” and you “like the enthusiasm”, as if we’re an up and coming team that’s put together a nice little run.
Despite what happens tomorrow, we’re the mother ****ing KANSAS CITY CHIEFS, with future Hall of Famer Patrick Mahomes! We wreck people’s shit, we’ve been the best team in the NFL for the last five years! You honestly should be terrified about tomorrow, but you talk like it’s a nice consolation that the Chiefs are in it. Either you’re trolling a bit or you have no earthly idea how great and scary our team is. Either way I think you’re in for a rude awaking. [Reply]

I've been looking for a solid Wisconsin farm girl to drive me to parties tomorrow. Strange that you said that. [Reply]

I think it depends on what you call a “mid level TE”. Does that mean middle of the pack starter? Because he’s better than that for sure.
I think tiers are normally the best way to rank players. It normally isn't to accurately ranks players in a list.
Right now, I put Kelce in the top tier alone. He’s really separated from the pack.
Second tier for me is Mark Andrews, Hockenson, and Kittle.
Goedert, for me, is at the top of the third tier and working his way into the second (as Kittle slips). I’d put him with Friermuth and Engram.
Fair enough, I disagree with all but Kittle. With the other eagles skill players Goedert doesn't get the volume of touches he would have on another team. He does block well, catches pretty much anything around him and will gain some good yac. Travis is definitely up there with Gronk as all time great.

Man, the Cheifs are a great team as I said. Will they win? Maybe. Is PM a future hall of famer? Looks like it for sure. Best QB in the league the last 5 years? Probably, but 1 SB win so sometimes it takes more than having the best QB in the world which I would not argue you have. [Reply]
