They need him to keep playing for the Taylor swift ratings boost I guess 

nah that ratings boost has completely worn off and is irrelevant 

Kelce should retire, dude is totally washed

Dude that first Chiefs play from scrimmage was fuging beautiful. God I wish we fired Rivera to hire Reid back in the day

by the rules it's a penalty, but pretty soft

this scoreboard is incredibly stupid lol who the fug made that decision

I got it 30-27 KC.

Philly runs for over 200, turns it over once. Philly kicker misses a FG at some point.

KC turns it over twice.

KC wins the penalty battle slightly(angering conspiracy theorists that don't realize the last time a SB winner was more penalized than the loser was the 2013 season).

 

 

The Chiefs haven't allowed a 100 yard rusher in their last 18 playoff games. Sure Barkley is better than most but that does include several matchup against Henry, and McCaffrey coming off a OPOY season. Could see the Eagles winning but I don't think they run for anywhere near 200. The Bills and Texans were able to run for a lot because the Chiefs had to adjust to stop those passing attacks -- the Eagles are much more limited passing the ball so the Chiefs can load up against the run. Also, Barkley is a big run guy, not someone who grinds out 10 yards on every play -- Chiefs are the best tackling D in the league so if they can limit the big runs I don't think Barkley will do much compared to his last few games.

Nothing will surprise me with this game but my guess is the Chiefs win a SB handily for the first time, 31-13 KC.

Regardless of what you think of the Chiefs at least if they keep winning while we suck then all the other teams will have nothing to show for it either. I want us to be the ones to take those guys down not some other team

Wilson is a fine player but not worth #8 to us, not even close. Grab a young BPA (ideally defense) on rookie contract with 5th year option. We need impact players and long term core pieces, NOT guys like Wilson.

Not a fan mainly due to his injury history, but he’d be a legit wr1 for Bryce if healthy

He’s going to catch flack for that comment of all 11 guys doing their job to win a SB. Because he didn’t jump on that loose ball.

I wonder if that also was a slight dig at Remmers. His breakdowns in protection was the biggest factor in that superbowl outcome.

doubtful it's a dig at Remmers, Cam was never one to blame his teammates. and honestly the real fug up wasn't Remmers, it was the coaching staff for putting him in that position and not adjusting play calling and blocking schemes

Flashy headline but what he said in the full context of what he said isn't wrong. winning a SB is a team accomplishment and requires multiple players, coaches, etc. doing their jobs. Cam did his job in 2015 and the MVP is evidence of that (no he wasn't perfect in the SB but the OL and refs fuged him, he didn't lose us that game by any means). I've said the same thing too -- to judge an individual player in a team sport like this, awards like MVP, all pro, etc. are more important and say a lot more than SB rings.

Glass houses and all

Willis didn’t win DPOY and had one less All-pro selection. 

Yep, both of which should be enough to sway Luke to 1st ballot, especially the DPOY which is significant. Willis got in but I believe it was like his 3rd year of eligibility

To me, Luke is the prototypical first-ballot hall of famer and it would be an absolute shame for Canton if he has to wait. DROY, DPOY, 5x first team all-pro, 2x second team all-pro in 8 seasons, record for most tackles in a game and elite play in a SB run (no ring but that's hardly his fault, the D dominated that SB).

He's hurt by the Carolina factor but I do think he gets in this year.

Smitty I think is unfortunately going to be hurt by timing again. Voters are probably hesitant to vote for 2 Panthers in one induction class and Pep got the Panther slot last year and Luke probably gets it this year. I think Smitty will get in eventually (he absolutely should, what he accomplished despite the QBs he had throwing him the ball compared to other hall of fame WRs' QBs is absolutely insane). Not sure what next year's class looks like but he could get in next year.

Would actually be pretty cool to have 3 straight years with Carolina-drafted players getting into the HoF. But also kinda sad that those elite players are that far in the past for us and under Tepper we haven't even come close to sniffing a future hall of famer (McCaffrey was drafted under Richardson and he'll be borderline depending on how the rest of his career plays out).

I’ve said it a million times but will keep saying it. Victor Cruz 2.0, except hopefully staying healthy his whole career unlike Cruz. People forget how good Cruz was and these guys profile very similarly skill set wise

I think specifically, Joe Brady not figuring out the short yardage game.  I think the rest of it was fine.  KC clearly figured out the their short yardage play from the jump of that game.   Buffalo seemed so sure it was their own auto yard getter they had no adjustment in the back pocket. 

almost feel like playcallers should just have the national broadcast running.  Romo from the jump was like yep, KC figured that out on film and made adjustment. 

all that being said, I think the refs still tilted the final result to the Bills more so than Brady costing them the game if I had to pick between the 2. 

The lack of play action was Buffalo's downfall. They were running all over the Chiefs for several drives, then the Chiefs adjusted and the Bills thought running it would just keep working. I didn't see a single play action play in the 2nd half, when it easily would've converted those 3rd and 4th and shorts that they got stuffed on. Also, on the final drive, they completely abandoned the run and called 4 straight passes, all telegraphed. 

Joe Brady really did a great job with the Bills' O all year, but man he fell flat on his face when it mattered most. That said, Reid and Spags have made a million coaches look stupid over the years, as much as some may want to blame McDermott/Brady, Andy and his crew are just better and there really aren't many (any?) who can keep up with them.

and so on and so on and so on

 

Im tired of seeing him and his buddies (and his buddys girlfriend) every fuging time the TV is on.  The machine has shoved the Kelses and Mahomes down our throats so long they make me sick.

 

If I saw them half as much when I wasnt watching them play I'd hate them 90% less

your issue is watching advertisements in 2025. of course the 2x reigning champs will be featured in a bunch of ads lol, they sell. same with swift, I don't like her either but they show her for like a grand total of 25 seconds in these games, just ignore it dude

He got there because Clete wasn't the ref until the super bowl.

Allen was unfortunate enough to get Clete to job him in the championship game (Allen got the first and there is no way in Hell that Worthy caught the jump ball).

lame excuses

Don't really care who wins in a few weeks now. Only 364 more days until Carolina wins the NFC again. Can't wait.

Yep in 2 weeks none of this poo matters and every single team is in offseason mode and we can focus on that

43 minutes ago, WhoKnows said:

Me too. I saw the top ref and thought they got it but then he backs off as soon as the bottom ref ran up.

I forgot about the Worthy play. If Worthy was given the catch then the ground touch made it incomplete. Made no sense. Either you rule an interception and Buffalo QB touched and down before the ball is pulled out or call it an incompletion because the ball touched the ground before Worthy got possession. That was likely an additional 4 points that KC got instead of having to kick a FG.

There was a defensive penalty on that play anyways and the Chiefs were moving the ball at will. 

Cam may not have won a SB but at least he got there

What the prospects of a Chiefs threepeat does to a MFer

I want Buffalo to fire McDermott for the offseason lols 

we could then fire EE and bring McD back as DC again lol

IDK about winning more than 7 necessarily. Depends on the situations. 

Long way from having that discussion yet.

honestly if the Chiefs win it this year and then both Reid and Mahomes decided to retire (they won't), I'd say they are the GOATs. Brady's longevity is crazy but he and Belichick never dominated the league quite like this.

Idk I don't see Hurts successfully going toe to toe with Mahomes.

Agreed, but the Eagles' D is pretty damn legit though. On paper Chiefs should be favorites but it's the SB and anything can happen. I thought the Chiefs would blow the Bucs out and it was the opposite. Also Chiefs' run D has really really struggled lately and Saquon has been insane.
