*Mahomes at 81 TDs through 33 games

I mean at this point, is it not a foregone conclusion?

He's currently averaging 2.5 TD's per game over 33 games. He needs to average just 1.75 per game over the next 11 games to tie Marino.

Normally I hate predicting stuff like this, particularly for the Chiefs or Chiefs players because I feel like I could somehow jinx it, but I think Mahomes mojo is far stronger than my jinx. I think he crushes this record.

I think Mahomes will clear 100 TDs by 37 games.

If he simply maintains his current pace, he hits 100 in 8 games basically.

Yeah, but that's the easy prediction. Anyone can predict "if he just maintains his pace . . ."

I'm going "if Mahomes goes full-on 'Mahomes'" at least twice over the next 4 games, throws for at least 4 TDs in those games (feeling like it might happen next Monday), he could eclipse the mark in half the games. I realize it's a tough slate of games over the next six or so weeks, but I feel like what's when Mahomes performs at his best, so i feel reasonably confident that he can get there in just 4 games.

If the Chiefs defense is as shaky as it appears so far, he will need those type of 4+ TD games to have a shot at winning against Baltimore, New England, and Buffalo.

A "shaky" defense that has allowed 20 points in both games (with 13 real garbage time points).

Defense will be fine. This isn't 2018.

To an extent I agree. I think the Chiefs will need to score 35 points to beat the Ravens, partly because the defense will still be missing at least one starting CB, possibly two, and the LBs are still not playing even as well as they were mid-way through last season. We do get Pennel back this week, but Okafor probably won't play, and Saunders won't be back for at least two or three more weeks, and Thornhill is still nursing his knee. So I figure the Ravens will score at least 30.

Of course, I'm hoping I'm wrong. Taking a cursory look at the stats from the BAL/HOU game, the Ravens offense doesn't look that impressive, other than their total rushing yards, but their scoring efficiency is nothing to write home about. In a nutshell, only two offensive TDs, and 4 FGs against a HOU defense that we shellacked in week 1, torching them for 4 TDs and a pair of FGs.

Our offensive efficiency against similar opponents is still far and away superior. But we're going to give them opportunities, and our defense will give up some points.

Guys on suspension.. injuries, Clark sick, and we still hold them to 20pts and stop them in OT.. We'll be ok..

It helps when the other team limits their own scoring chances by running 10 minutes of clock on a field goal drive.

I don't expect NE to be as much trouble,, nor Buffalo. Buffalo in particular hasn't shown the kind of offensive efficiency yet that makes me think they're going to be able to keep up.
