I think it's going to be a tough game for the Chiefs. They have to contain Lamar Jackson, as well as stop the other rushers. If the pass defense is adequate and Jackson is contained the Chiefs have a real good chance. It just depends on which defense shows up at the game: porous or swarming.
I've been wrong so often this season I'll just NOT predict anything but a very close game. [Reply]
Ravens have been playing great, but do they have enough on offense outside of Lamar He's their top runner, Gus scores a lot of TDs and also had about 800 yards, Zay Flowers had similar numbers to Rashee Rice.
So they have a better run game, and we have a better passing game.
Bolton spies Lamar and we try to take away his feet. [Reply]

Would give the Lions or 49ers that much more to prep for, too.
Can you imagine the tightness of Kyle Shanahan's a-hole if he has to prep for the Chiefs in the Super Bowl?
He might choke before the game starts this time.
Big task in front of KC, though. Baltimore is a complete team. Going to have to have a special day to pull that one out. [Reply]

That's not a good use of Bolton's strengths and weaknesses. Him vs. Jackson in space is a nightmare matchup for Bolton.
KC needs to use Willie Gay or DBs to spy Jackson.
I'd like to see Conner get some spy looks in the 3-safety sets. [Reply]

He runs as much as he did that game, he’s gonna not make it to the end. And almost 3 seasons ago. Weren’t you complaining about this very thing? [Reply]
Pretty crazy convo going on in the Ravens forum: Some inside source is saying Zay Flowers is in some hot water and its going to come down soon... Probably BS, but interesting:

and Sorenson was getting significant snaps [Reply]

I'll assume BS unless we see more.
Same here, but you never know. Young guys make dumb decisions, especially around women. Also, Sneed said he was drug tested after the game, so who knows. Weird for a long time contributor to go out on a limb like this... cough cough Clay... [Reply]

...I dunno, maybe scoring 13 on the wonderlic and not being able to put together sentences and calling plays off his wrist like he's in college :-) [Reply]
What is all this weak ass talk claiming Mahomes cant catch Brady at 7 rings? If the Chiefs win their next two games, at 28 years old, Mahomes will have:
6 Straight Division Titles
6 Straight AFCCG Appearances
4 SB Appearances
3 SB Titles
3 SB MVPs (likely if we win it)
2 Regular Season MVPs
Correct me if I am wrong, but that surpasses what Brady accomplished by age 28, yes? Not to mention, Mahomes would far surpass Brady at this stage in stats such as yardage, TDs, etc...
Brady went 10 years without winning a SB in the middle of his career. Folks, Mahomes isn't going 10 freaking years without winning a SB I can promise you that.
Now, I understand Mahomes isn't going to play until he is 45 years old. If he plays until he is 40-41 though his career is only a third over. He has 12 seasons left. With the way the NFL protects QBs in today's game and Mahomes' style of play (isn't playing RB like Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson) combined with a little luck you hope and pray he won't have any season ending injuries.
Win the next two games and he is well ahead of pace. Win the next two!
If Mahomes wins THREE in the first THIRD of his career I for one am sure as hell not going to put it past him that he could win FOUR in the last TWO THIRDS of his career. Dude is literally entering his prime as a QB at 28 years old. [Reply]
