The Bills, Ravens, and 49ers I completely understand.

They all sort of beat up on weak teams to an extent during the season, but that's kind of how you build up your DVOA in this league that high as it is.

In any case, there's a decent argument this is the toughest road any team has ever faced to win a SB.

KC doesn’t really blowout other teams for the most part. Funny enough they did it to this Niners team in San Francisco (ahem…Santa Clara) last year after spotting the Niners a 10 point lead.

We beat them once, we WILL do it again! Get ready for ANOTHER CHIEFS SB merch purchased thread!

[Gary Cooper]

This is unfinished business. Mahomes, Kelce, Jones remember the SB loss from three years ago. This is a chance to win back-to-back and cement the dynasty.

He was just fine in the first half. It was the 3rd quarter and early 4th quarter where he had the two interceptions. Will obviously need to play clean football to win. He has done it in the last 6 Playoff games for 2022 and 2023 seasons. Keep avoiding the mistakes and KC has a strong chance to win.

Yeah we don't blow anyone out and I'm not going to expect that here, but you have to like the QB matchup and how Mahomes does against zone defenses. Our defense is on fire, just need to find a way to keep McCaffrey and Deebo from going off because they are beasts.

And stats/metrics will never be able to fully account for games tightening or getting out of hand in garbage time.

We’ve seen it enough times with Reid to just know this is how he does things. He’s never afraid to take his foot off the gas and let a game look closer than it was. It’s happened too many times.

So many teams like Buffalo, Miami, Baltimore love to pour it on bad teams.

The dude hates showing more from his playbook than he needs to.

He’s the best in the game. More coaches should follow his example.

He is the most annoying sound in the world.

He is trying his best to immitate the legendary Bill King. R.I.P.

I always think that saying Reid gets conservative is overblown, teams adjust, but it felt like he definitely dialed it back a bit today. I'm joking but it felt a little like the Waterboy when the coach started kneeling it to take Bobby Boucher out of the game.

Basically said you have an all-time great defense statistically and Lamar, so here you go Lamar, go win it.

I think Reid did it right today.

Lamar was completely lost. The only way he was really figuring us out was if he got momentum from a turnover.

I wouldn’t want to play the Chiefs right now.

**** that shit. Best QB in the league is playing like it again with the best defense in the league and the best coach in the league coming off a bye with major momentum.

Nope. No thanks.
