Problems do not get magically fixed in the postseason.

They get exposed.

And the offense - shit, what more can be said. None of them are playing well. Literally not a single guy on offense is playing at even 80% of what he's capable of.

They need to be embarrassed.

I'd say the Broncos knocking them out of the playoffs should cover it.

It wouldn't bother me a bit.


The Broncos would be brutal. But reality is we have a really good chance of losing to a terrible QB such as a backup, Flacco, or Wilson in the first round. I’m just hoping we get past round one so our inevitable loss is at least somewhat respectable.

In your heart of hearts, you knew. And the big games during the regular season always ended almost exactly the same way.

We know how this season ends.

It won't get easier for our shit-****ing WRs or sorry-ass run defense in the playoffs and definitely not on the road.

Every playoff team is capable of scoring 20 points and that's unfortunately all it takes to beat the Chiefs in 2023.

RIP

Who is your pick to win the AFC then? Let's hear it. Call your shot.

I've been telling myself it's execution and they'll get it cleaned up.

It's not. Its desire. It's focus. It's coaching.

They don't have it, man. They're not going to just clean that up. They're going to keep doing this same shit. They aren't hungry enough.

The problem is that the players and coaches realize it as well.

But I don't think this is a team that can flip a switch. Again - they're not as good as they think they are.

I think they'll make the playoffs. But I genuinely wonder if they wouldn't be better served missing them. They're gonna sneak in, hit the nitrous button in the post-season and be surprised to find that they're still just a running a stick Civic out there.

The only time I remember it lately was the Raiders game and it flipped in a big way... it was like Mahomes and Kelce told each other, **** it, we're doing this and immediately got on the same page, Mahomes started flinging it like days of old (uh, last year), Rice ended with 100 yards.

And I thought, sweet... yeah, it's just the Raiders, but if that's what they can look like, they can flip that switch come playoff time (and was figuring they'd do it today, too).

Besides the Mahomes-Kelce connection, it obviously doesn't seme like they're cohesive enough to **** around and then confidently strut into the playoffs and do their thing. They only needed one warmup game last year heading into the playoffs, and that made sense.

They should probably use the rest of the month this year.

Baltimore.

They’re a team on a mission.

The winner of MIA-BAL.

Today proved plus talent at WR can give the Ravens defense a lot of problems.

Whoever wins that game, goes to Las Vegas.

To get curb stomped.

Too many players seem to have gotten complacent after getting a ring. This is a huge reason why it’s so hard to repeat as SB Champions.

It's reality people held out as long as the could but the proof is in the pudding when teams of the past came thru in these situations this team doesn't have that. Also no one is stepping up being a leader and getting into players asses!!! Some one needs to coach or player!!! Players need to be benched if they are not getting it done bottom line!!! If you keep doing the same thing you get the same results and that is insane!!!

Dolphins.

We emptied the tank defensively on them and still had to hang on like grim death to win that game after getting a massive lead.

Miami will beat us by 17 if we play them again.

From the opening snap last year this team looked like it had something to prove. They had a fire in them that showed through the year. They were hungry and had the right demeanor. A team on a mission.

This year they look like they got cocky. They are eating too much of their own shit and things got out of hand. The HC who is notoriously out of the loop starts doing more commercials, Taylor Swift comes to town.

The leaders of this team haven't been as focused this season. They'll still win this division IMO and they'll likely win the first WC game but they'll play the Jags or Dolphins in the divisional rd and get beat. And they'll deserve it.

Hoover 12-10-2023 09:31 PM

Look, Veach has some work to do.

Chris Jones is gone.
MVS is gone.

Skyy Moore and Toney are nothing more than WRs 3 4 or 5. We can't expect those guys to bee dependable WRs. Especially knowing that they are going to get minimal targets.

Miami???

This Miami team...

The combined winning percentage of teams defeated by the Dolphins this season is .303, which is the lowest rate in the AFC and the third-lowest mark in the league
They've yet to defeat a team with a winning record
Their three losses have all come against high-quality AFC contenders
Their overall strength of schedule has been the easiest in the entire league

Won't matter if we get Diggs and Toney can't identify a line of scrimmage...

Let's face it folks, it's almost a blessing this is happening.

None of us can stomach getting another 31-9 sphincter wrench in the big one.

And today guaranteed we won't be doing the walk of sadness through the Truman Sports Complex in 5 degree weather, which I've done three times now and it never gets easier.

We'll get a nice consolation WC prize, a little playoff experience for the rookies, and watch the Chiefs get eliminated in Baltimore or Miami in front of our TVs, warm in our robes, draft guide at the ready.

Good show, Chiefs. You played hard. You got as far as you deserved and didn't embarrass yourselves that much.

We'll more than likely still be able to laugh at Philly, Tyreek, Buffalo and/or Cincy.

It's better this way.
