You're a bunch of superstitious children. Enjoy the Lamar Hunt trophy game from Arrowhead Stadium 2 weeks from today. Their Luck ran out. Our time is now. [Reply]

What is one supposed to think?
It's a coping mechanism maybe?
EDIT: And by the way, I was being largely facetious until just now. FWIW.
It pisses me off that this defense STILL can’t stop people after and entire ****ing offseason of trying to fix it. Hell they are WORSE. This is what has ruined our season over and over and over again and Andy won’t fix it bc of his dumbass loyalty.
Kareem Hunt is gone. Is Sammy Watkins going to play?

It’s just more pressure put on Pat.
Andy isn't going to fire anybody mid-season. Not sure why you'd still be angry over something that likely wasn't going to change until next year.
They TRIED to fix it. They failed. Unless you're going to get rid of Andy Reid, which has a direct impact on the guy that just threw for 50 TDs, I don't think any of it is worth fretting over honestly. He is what he is. [Reply]
It now seems clear that one of the consequences of starting the gameday thread multiple days early is it provides more of an opportunity to load it up with skepticism, vitriol, and the general self-loathing that Chiefs fans embrace.
If it soothes your bleeding vagina at all I do think the collapse against the Chargers forced some much needed changes on the defense that I think will make a very real difference going forward. Reid is what he is as a coach. He'll never significantly change. Luckily for him he's got the league MVP at QB this time around instead of a painfully mediocre miltequost QB so it shouldn't matter.

Marlon Mack averaged 76 ypg and only had 4 games with 100 or more yards rushing. It seems people are acting like this one good game is what he did all year and thats just not true.
You are manipulating the stats to fit your argument. Marlon Mack didn't come back from injury and play full time until week 6. You should probably redo those averages before and after week 6 and see what you come up with. I never said they were the Ravens but their numbers were certainly much better when Mack came back.

WE HAVE FOUND THE MAGIC ELIXIR.
It has the side benefit of making the thread so massive that it's impossible to navigate or follow any specific topics of discussion around the upcoming game. It's a mega-mega thread which mega-mega sucks. [Reply]

We give up 5 YPC avg against the run.
You don’t think that’s cause for concern?
Well the original point I was arguing is that the Colts arent some crazy good running team that controls the ball well. Lets not use 1 game as proof theyre good because if were gonna do that then we can say the Chiefs are decent because they held 6 teams to 102 yards or less.
No im not concerned about the Colts run game. Theyre going to have to score TDs every drive or we will blow then out. [Reply]

That’s the thing. He’s had 6 seasons to fix it and the defense falls apart when it matters. Every. Single. Time.
If they show up and play some defense and beat these guys I’m in, but do you really expect that to happen?
Andy and his dumbass loyalty could ruin a season with an MVP QB. [Reply]
