I hope Rivers enjoys his garbage time stats when we were ahead 18 points with 10 mins left

During preseason it was “but but half our defensive player aren’t out there!” “We’re playing very vanilla!” “It’s just preseason, get a grip!” Game day happens, same ole shit!!!!

They played Nathan ****ing Peterman LMAO

There's going to be plenty of passes to catch and TDs to score. Kelce can decide for himself if he wants to be a part of it.

Chargers WRs gave the Chiefs that win.

Dude do you not see the difference between the Chargers offense and the Bills?

This.

Rivers is gonna make some throws.

We know to get on top of the them early and keep it close because they always **** it up for themselves in the end.

Nathan Peterman, that's not fair man.

No one here was more negative in preseason than me about this defense, and nothing has changed, but if you're being a negative nelly right now you have NO CLUE how the NFL currently works.

Mahomes playing like that is everything we hoped. We knew the D was bad, but we couldn't be 100% sure about Mahomes. But the offense is legit and we will be in EVERY SINGLE GAME WE PLAY - all because of that.

Would you rather be us or the Jags going forward? If you say the Jags, you're truly just a dumb mother****er.

Garbage time lasted 2 quarters this outing.

Let's tell Scanlon to scram, though.

Oh ... and Fuller needs to learn how to stay on his feets.

FAX

Don't get alarmed at garbage time numbers, it was hot as **** out there today and when it mattered the defense had given up 12 points.

The Chargers are talented but underachieving; the Bills have the least talented roster in the NFL and it's possible that they go 0-16?

So it doesn't happen all the time that teams up big give up 500+ yds on D? This D is embarrassing and inept.

Nice win

The defense isn't very good but I'm glad we won in dominate fashion

Chargers dropped 5 big passes, dude fumbles punt on 1 leading to our TD that we almost blew with a penalty, our D looked like Swiss Cheese all game, their kicker shanks the most important kick at the end, Tyreek has a 91 TD punt return and another 50+ TD catch and run yet we had to get down to the last 2 minutes to know our fate.

We play like this next week and we lose by 20. No way I see Pittsburgh being sloppy like SD. Add in the fact that we suck balls in that Stadium winning like once in 15 tries.

Defense is what it is.

On a positive note Dee Ford was beasting most of the day.

Yeppers.

This

Pittsburgh tied with Cleveland today broski.

We get Berry back and we should be able to punch Pitt right in the mouff.

Meanwhile, the Stellas tied CLEVELAND.

****ING CLEVELAND.

Shut your fat ass up, bitch.

So much this.

This

AND THIS.

You said it always happens. :)

You think this d is going to be at least average?

I hope so. Big Ben played like shit today.

Water is wet and the Chiefs are who we thought they were. They have holes but they have the talent to make up for it. I love it. We have such a higher ceiling on offense and the defensive performance was as expected. This season is going to be amazing.

Nelson made some nice plays today

Scandrick is ****in trash. Just like Amerson.

Great analysis of that punt return here.

My ass is always shut when you're around turd burglar!

For the record I'm no longer close to fat down 80 lbs.

Are you guys blind dumb or trolls.

The chargers played the exact same way they have for the last five seasons. They took advantage of prevent defense for a shit ton of yards and can’t actually produce. 0-9 in. E last five seasons. But yeah, keep bitching.

Patrick Mahomes just had one of the most beautiful, crazy looking debuts of any NFL QB

And all anyone can talk about is the defense, gaaah

Wut? Had a Bills fan tell me two weeks ago that they were going back to the playoffs this year.

Oh man, that pass to Sherman was a thing of beauty!

Amerson was Bartee-level trash.

It wasn't his debut.

It was his encore, and it was even better.

Oh, and big congratulations are in order for FAX, for it's first victory of a game thread.

The Peterman Reality Tour.

I HEREBY NOMINATE FAX THE OFFICIAL GAME DAY THREAD STARTER FOR THE SEASON

Yep. I'm super excited about Mahomes, and that makes my hatred for Bob Sutton and his merry band of bundle of stickss all the more intense. It's the worst goddamn feeling in the world to never feel good about a victory until the clock reads 0:00 because this defense is horrendous.

I can’t wait until we beat the ****ing brakes off Pittsburgh next week. Chiefs 34-17.

We finally get over the hump. Arrowhead is going to be INSANE for Jimmy G and company.

Say your peace to Lonewolf Ed, and we can be friends

Because you nailed it here

I often hate how its accomplished, but how is anyone gonna argue with Suttons results against the Chargers?

His franchise QB debut

Hot as hell in LA and the game started with the defense playing 31 of the first 43 snaps.

They got really ****ing tired after the offense wasn’t on the field at all in the first half and t showed.

Don’t care though. This game was over in the 4th when it was 38-20. I don’t give a **** about yards. Rivers got 8 points and like 150 yards of garbage time confetti.

I think there’s a lot of truth to this. :shrug:

Scandrick worries me a little but overall I can see why things unfolded the way they did. That game was the hottest game of the year probably by far, and it was the first one too with the whole unit playing. They were visibly tired for much of the contest.

If we’re lucky enough to get Berry back, I think we’ll be in business. But make no mistake, this team will be made by its offense and special teams.

The greatness of Patrick Mahomes three makes the loins in the nether regions of my holy groin tickle with great pleasure / Daru

Veach should be drug over hot coals for Amerson and Scandrick. ****ing dumbass went dumpster diving for arguably the most important position on D.

Ed would have LOVED today's game.

My beer got kinda warm in the 3rd quarter.

FAX

It hasn’t worked too well thus far BUT I will say that Fuller and Nelson seemed to do quite well today. Nothing flashy, just kept their names out of the broadcasters’ mouths.

Nope

With Amerson we would've given up 2 more touchdowns

Amerson makes Gaines look like Peters

You are the Apostle Paul.

Ragland went out in second half, I wonder if his knee flaired up?

Who was available via FA?

This game by Mahomes and Co has brought so much hope to this battered fandom. Holy shit... this win felt GOOD.

Yup.

I have to admit the CB and Oline did not get enough attention this offseason, one of our 1st two picks should have been a CB/S. Definitely a black mark on Veach on those two. The Watkins signing was also just unnecessary and that money should have gone somewhere else. IMO Andy has his hands heavily into the personnel side regardless of what they say about separation of duties. Hoping for the best with Veach but I am a little concerned already.

According to writings in the New Testament and prior to his conversion, Paul was dedicated to persecuting the early disciples of Chiefs QBs in the area of Kansas City.

In the narrative of the Acts of the Apostles, Paul was traveling on the road from Kansas City to San Francisco on a mission to "arrest them and bring them back to Kansas City" when a newly drafted Chiefs QB appeared to him in a great light.

He was struck blind, but after three days his sight was restored by Pestilence of Chiefsplanet and Paul began to preach that Patrick of Lubbock is the Midwest Messiah and the Son of Pat.

This is amazing.

Had to get that 50 million dollar decoy!

To cap off his day Mahomes should line up all DB's and drill spirals into their nuts.

ROFL

LMAO

Fax is starting week 2 thread

Didn’t need him.

We only had so many draft picks and not many FA CB's were available with limited funds.

YES!!

This is great news.

Can he just do the season?

I wasn't able to participate much in the game thread, but my takeaways are...

A. Tyreek is a top-ten player in the NFL. He can do it all.
B. Patrick Mahomes II is a legit franchise quarterback. This is his second game in the NFL, and the first was only against the first string of the Broncos. That's a fantastic debut.
C. The running backs all played very well today. And Sherman on the bomb? That was awesome. On Tyreek's bomb, I was also amused that Sherman was booking downfield right behind him to block.
D. The OL played well in the first half, less well in the second half. And say what you will about Cam Erving, but the guy plays to the whistle and he hustles. He made a couple of good plays today helping to push an RB forward.
E. Great special teams play today in all phases. Tyreek's return was as much about good blocking as it was a good return.
F. The later long pass to Tyreek illustrates the difference between Patrick Mahomes II and other quarterbacks. I was watching the play and thought, "Oh, dang. He really overthrew Kel- OH MY GOD! There's another receiver further downfield!"
G. I've been picking on Dee Ford a lot, but he hustles. If he had any moves other than a speed move outside, he'd be a good player. It didn't surprise me that his sack came on an inside rush, because the offensive tackle never expects that.
H. Ragland needs to play better. He was the weakest link on defense today. Hitchens made a couple of great plays on screens, but he made more bad plays.
I. Steven Nelson was the MVP of the defense today. He played well.

Think you mean Ron Parker not Steve Nelson.
Posted via Mobile Device

Scandick was the weakest link rainman not Ragland.

That's because they spent money on a decoy WR. Bad priorities.

Actually, I meant Steven Nelson. Parker had a couple of good plays, but Nelson made several pass breakups.

I'm noting that Tyreek Hill had 267 total yards today on 11 touches. That's nice.

It's like Hill turned out the way we dreamed Hall would.

It’s amazing how people always miss the good with Nelson.

He was our best CB today. Not saying much, but he wasn’t bad at all.

I don't have any issues with Nelson or Fuller. They played as well as one can. I have major issues with Scandrick and the safety play.

Agreed there.

Your creativity knows no bounds. Well played.

Fuller got abused today, quite a bit actually. Scandrick made a couple of really bad plays but he also made a couple of really good plays too. They’ll figure it out. The safeties are a much bigger issue. When Ron Parker looks like your best player, there’s a big problem.

Nope. The invisible Man, Justin Houston, was the weakest link.

He was awful today. Completely absent.

Ragland and Hitchens were missing a ****ton of tackles, the Chargers were going through the A gap with too much ease.
