Awesome AFC West victory but, DAMN I hated seeing Rice go down. I hope to God it is not as serious as it looked. 4 - 0 guys.

Our games are grind out.
That helps in the last weeks of the season and playoffs.

Yeah, it's bittersweet for sure.

They'll need to acquire someone. None of the current WRs is capable of doing what Rice did for this team last season. Worthy is a different type of WR. The others are just collecting a paycheck.

They may have to run even more now. And rely more on the defense and Mahomes magic when the opportunity arises. Doesn't matter how they win except it only gets tougher with injuries. I'll take 17-10 wins from here to the SB. Don't know how tenable that is though.

Yeah, I’m in that weird “so glad we won, but pretty depressed about Rice” kind of mood. That guy was going to have a monster season. I guess that’s life in the NFL.

Should have been obvious after what they did last year but we've got people still panicking here after bad quarters in late September and calling the best QB who ever lived trash.

Kelce owns the Chargers

Several huge plays kept the Chargers from getting blown out:

*Steele fumble cost KC 3-7 points
*Mahomes INT gave 3 points to Chargers
*Herbert threw a Pick 6 but they dropped it.

Swing of at least 13 points on those 3 plays. And the Chiefs still won despite the sloppy mistakes.

Not to mention Gus Edwards fumbling the ball and it bouncing right back to him on a bad handoff.

Defense is nails

Offense keeps having huge setbacks but Worthy is stepping up. Kelce will make shit happen when he needs to but our TEs need to help Kelce save something for the postseason. But I'm not worried

If Rice is out for a few weeks, we still have the horses to scheme around it for a while with Juju, Hardman and Watson

If he's out a few weeks, we're beyond lucky.

He is going to be out for the year. Brace yourselves.

Chief fans need to be better. 2 consecutive games at SoFi where they did the tomahawk chop on a down Charger player. Kelce and Mahomes was telling the crowd to simmer down.

Do better

them today . It was a good day- but I think "owned" is a bit of a reach..

Yep - that's how teams lose is turnovers and missed opportunities.. We could have just as easily lost this game.
