I just feel like everyone is going to spend all week talking about Mahomes' ankle or Burrow being a Demigod or Chase against this young secondary or Lou Anarumo being a psychopath...and then in the end it's just going to Samaje Perine bludgeoning Bolton and Gay to death.

No chance you believe this. I understand your emotions at this time. I really do. We used to be a fan like you. Some day you might feel like us.
Reality is I'm playing with house money. 2 more super bowls than I ever thought I would see in my lifetime. And more yet to come. It really is something. [Reply]

I expect at some point he will blame the shoulder for his shit production. [Reply]

Man, you’re really taking this hard.
Where can I find last February’s Super Bowl on VHS? This ain’t 1985, McFly. [Reply]

You’re shook. You know that KC’s one WR away from these games not even being competitive. The Bengals, meanwhile, are moving in the wrong direction. They don’t even have a defense anymore, and they’ve never had an offense that produced in the playoffs.
Did the Chiefs just slam your window shut? :-) [Reply]

This postseason, i do. You have too many issues to compete for a SB this year. They didn't just get magically fixed because you beat the Bengals at home.
This isn't just taking a shot because my team lost, or taking a shot because i don't like a team but the facts are, if you paid attention to the game, the deep shots you hit were single coverage with the CB playing trail technique only they didn't have decent safety help. That was just plain stupid. The running game was good because the Bengals have been terrible at tackling this year--probably because they have a penchant for stripping the ball--and they didn't get the same results this year that they did the previous 2 and the LB play has been much worse this year. Wilson and Pratt have been out of position way too often this year and were easily wiped out of plays, unable to get off blocks consistently.
On offense, it's starts with the QB and Burrow was once again unable to even practice during TC, no preseason snaps and they decided to run him out there as a statue and let him play to health, which i didn't have a problem with and which he eventually did, but then he fucked up his wrist by simply bracing himself after a hit. Now the very legitimate question is, is Burrow physically able to play in the NFL, with how many injuries and dings he's accumulate over the first 4 years. Tee injured again and again and Ja'Marr checks out if doesn't get the ball early, especially with Burrow out. I won't even bother going into the running game and how the trench guys seem to be physically weaker than most teams because they get knocked off the LoS so easily and aren't able to sustain or shed blocks for very long/easily.
I know you all think things are going to magically fall into place, but it's not going to happen this year but like you said, you've been able to enjoy the last 5 years, so the end of the line doesn't hurt as much. I get that and i'd rather be there than here. [Reply]
