Discuss. and don't forget...

I was pretty pissed we were losing deep into the 3rd quarter to ****ing Brock Purdy and that the supposed "weak Niners defense" was stone-walling us. Obviously that changed when we got back into the game, but I didn't like how wrong I was about the Niners defense after hearing from a ton of sources I trusted that we'd put up points on them.
So yeah, I don't really predict blowouts anymore because it puts me in a foul mood if we don't meet that expectation. |

Seems pretty common around here... we set really high expectations and then for a lack of a better word, "settle" when those expectations that we completely made up aren't met. Just like the Jordan video posted last night, really.
And it could be for perfectly good, rational reasons... like they're playing against a quarterback who looks like a little kid who dressed up as an NFL quarterback for Halloween, in his first ever Super Bowl. I was trying real hard not to be pissed off while sitting at Arrowhead against the Texans in the first half of that game... didn't think they'd lose, but goddamnit it's the playoffs and it's the ****ing Texans.

That's one way I've kind of removed myself from losing sleep over losses... externalize that shit, because it's external. No need to go through the stages of grief on behalf of the team (granted, lots of people don't get past denial, as you said).

Not sure I agree here. Hurts has not been the same QB since Steichen left.

I would love for us to win like that this time around just to shut the media and fans up about the rest of the bullshit. Leave no doubt about who the king of the mountain is... but that will likely never be a reality.

Really? So you’d take Jimmy G. Over Hurts in some game situations? Would love to read your reasoning on that. Because for me I’d never take G in any football game if I could get Hurts instead.

The Chiefs have been waiting for this game for an entire year.
They want this badly. They’re locked in. And I think they’re gonna come out on ****ing fire like they did vs the Bills.

I assume some people bet on games and then have conflicting feelings of losing money on the spread and the Chiefs still winning (one guy next to me during the Texans game had some prop bets for a Kelce touchdown and was pissed every time Pacheco was in because he needed Hunt to do well).
