Chiefs gave me PTSD that lasted until midway through the 2019 season. As I noted before the half this team puts up 3 scores in a quarter every other game so even when you're down two scores that can be overcome in 1 minute with Patrick. And he did it again today. [Reply]
holy shit, our defense got knocked around hard. I know we were down a few people. and I know they withstood a really really good OL and running game. hopefully they can get their wits about them and bounce back, as every week isn't going to be the OL/run game of Cleveland. [Reply]

There's a difference between 'writing everything off' and being sober about not being where we need to be, or expected to be.
That said, hopefully getting early sidelined starters back will help, and as always hopefully no important injuries to turn the complexion of the season.
The D started off the game back on their heels and had zero swagger.
What's so awesome about Mahomes is that he inspires the shit out of the other guys. I think the D picked it up nicely and made some plays once our offense started scoring TD's. [Reply]
I think the defense really missed TM today. He's been the guy the last couple of years that got everyone in the right spot. It seemed like that was a problem today although you expect the d to have some mistakes. Just not that many. [Reply]

Cleveland is very clearly a good team. We beat them without some of our starters. I'm honestly not sure what folks were expecting. [Reply]

It's also not that difficult to understand the importance of practice during game prep/installation. People like to act like the NFL is simply plug and play when it's clearly not. [Reply]
