***OFFICIAL Chiefs vs Chargers Game Day Thread***

[FAX]

At long last, an incomparable and unparalleled day is upon us, Planeteers.

The Patrick Mahomes II Era begins with this game. May the Bolts fizzle and sputter as expected and may the New Chiefs begin their rise to greatness in dramatic fashion.

In lieu of a bunch of secret spoiler deals, I have composed a brief poetism in honor of the occasion. May it meet with your approval. Ahem ...

There once was a kid named Mahomes
Who had truly unique chromosomes
The Bolts were aghast
When the Chiefs scored so fast
And Mahomes incapacitated their ohms

There you have it, Planeteers. Go Chiefs!

(Sorry if re-post.)

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.

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.

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.

Hitchens was streaky. He played well in spurts. Ragland played poorly most of the game, IMO.

Dante Hall had a great career with us and I'm grateful for him, but Tyreek = Dante + 4 miles per hour. If he keeps it up, Tyreek may let us finally demote Stephone Paige from the all-time Chiefs team.

So, Brady threw for 500 yards and lost the super bowl.

That's what I was seeing as well.

The only time I recall Fuller got abused was the one where Keenan Allen made him look bad on the out route from the slot. But other than that, I don't recall much of him getting abused much.

Other than Scandrick making the great tackle on the first half, I just remember that he got torched several times as the game progressed.

Either way, the safety play is a big problem. If the Chargers receivers didn't had Vaseline on their gloves, Rivers would have gotten close to 500 passing yards.
