Panic will ensue all over this place but Mahomes is here and he’s ready to end this curse. Against the ultimate Chiefs heartbreaker.
The Texans have shown some things this half that KC can carry into their game plan on defense. We’re gonna get this done. Won’t be easy, but we’re going to win this motherfucker. [Reply]
1) Colts pass-rush is bad. If the OL has a decent game, it's almost unfathomable that Mahomes doesn't sit back and pick them apart all game long. Their secondary isn't much at all.
2) Colts OL is elite. We have the most sacks in the league. We HAVE to show up in this regard. If not, Luck can match Mahomes for sure.
3) Luck WILL throw some gimme INTs, we have to TAKE them. We've dropped too many in recent games and years. This could be a deciding factor.
4) The crowd has to show up. HOU has one of the most pathetic home crowds in the league. Colts offense played like it was a home game. The noise has to be our 12th defender. [Reply]

From my vantage point, with the coverages Indy was playing, Mahomes could easily throw 5 or 6. Watson fist-fucked that Texans team with his inability to make reads under pressure and make basic NFL throws. Mahomes doesn't miss a thing out there, it's going to be an entirely different animal. I think this offense is going to rape that defense, really. The only question is does the defense step up. I think they do. I think they are good enough to hold that team in check. 42-21 Chiefs.
