Mahomes is going to bring home the win. They will all change their tune. All of a sudden we are the darlings to beat the Pats/Chargers.
First part, maybe.
Second part, no way. Both have beaten us, and that will be the storyline. [Reply]
The Chiefs deserve every ounce of doubt they are receiving.
I think the Chiefs will handle the Colts, and give us a slight heart attack at the end. But, I wouldn’t be the least surprised if Indy comes in and physically abuses our soft team and pulls off the upset. [Reply]

The thing about Luck is there is no hesitation. When he decides to run, he's gone. Makes him even faster cuz he doesnt think about it. He knows exactly where the sticks are and takes off. He's also grown as a runner, where in years past, if he needed XXX yards he would run and try to get all of it, and took lots of hits in the process. Now, he'll take what you give him and try and get the rest on the next play. [Reply]

My main goal here is not to troll but to learn more about the Chiefs so, as I watch, I'll know things like "Oh hey, there's Chris Jones, I've heard he is pretty good" or "Damien Williams is someone to pay attention to".
I'd also like to return the favor so you guys know a few things about the Colts. Like, the Colts run a fast, 4-3 Tampa 2, effort-based Defense that includes many unknown players. WLB Darius Leonard (all-pro rookie) and Kenny Moore have been studs for us. Andrew Luck is weirdly athletic despite his size and goofy demeanor and having his best year. TY Hilton is having a huge season even though he hasn't practiced in over a month due to a severe ankle injury. LG Quenton Nelson (all-pro rookie) is a mean and nasty lineman and the main reason we've gone from the worst O-Line to the best this year. RB Marlon Mack is a top 10 back in the league with an average of 75.7 yards a game and 9 TDs.
If the Chiefs win, I'll likely cheer for them throughout the playoffs. A Chiefs vs Saints Super Bowl would be fun but a Colts vs Saints Super Bowl would be even better. [Reply]
That defense is completely devoid of talent. Playing zone all game with a lack of talent reminds me of Pittsburgh...not good for you. Chargers have way more talent and yeah they "held" us to 28 the second time, got their shit packed in good week one. [Reply]

Sure, they are a top 10 Defense that is devoid of talent. I don't think they will shut down the Chiefs Offense but I do think they can force a few punts and that's all the Colts need. [Reply]
They are. Hiding in Tampa 2 works against poor QBs. Has for DECADES. You faced nothing but inaccurate and poor QBs boosting up a bad defense. That shit will get shredded by a guy like Pat. You don't have the pass rush horses yet.
Good scheme for your very untalented defense though... [Reply]
