I like how you included the pass that was batted 5000 ft into the air. Yes, that was most definitely a fluke "reception," but I'm not sure how it belongs in this list. :-)
The funniest thing about all this is that you're making excuses about injuries (like clockwork), and yet you think the team is going to magically overcome their "bad luck" when they start facing real teams. :-)
9ers are gonna absolutely blast these turds. [Reply]
You know things are bad when you argue for your team by bringing up stats like yards per play and other QBs having dropped INTs. Simply put KC is 2-0 by beating a playoff team last year (Arizona) and a Top 5 across the board team in the LAC. [Reply]
Imagine if KC were 1-1, beating the Jets by one score at home, and losing at Carolina...averaging 16 ppg...and we were on their forums bragging about stats.
Sweet Jesus. Their standards continue to plummet every year...:-) [Reply]

Yes, KC has Mahomes and Reid, but they also have OBJ and Wylie at tackle and a bunch of JAGs at WR. They're not the same explosive team they've been in the past. They don't have Hill drawing the attention of a defense, opening up massive passing windows for everyone else. The Chiefs' receivers are going to be well covered, Mahomes is going to throw more picks this year. This isn't 2018-2021 anymore. KC doesn't have this thing wrapped up before the season has been played out.
Those "JAGs" at WR would start for Denver. JuJu, Marquez, and Hardman would all get significant playing time for Denver. Sutton is the only WR Denver has that would get playing time with KC. [Reply]
Yeah but those yards per play. Also he doesn’t have as many dropped INTs as Mahomes. Clearly he and the Broncos are as elite if not better that Mahomes and KC./Knowmo [Reply]
...and Denver played 2 bottom 5 teams while KC obliterated a solid Arizona team and about killed Herbert with that pass rush. If not for a few miracle throws Denver gave up more points against far worse teams. [Reply]
