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.

So instead of punching it in from the 1 with Pacheco, they should’ve thrown it? Probably should’ve told Worthy not to take it to the house either. That’s not how we should be scoring points, dammit!
Smith-Schuster’s dropped TD was definitely Mahomes’ fault.
Meanwhile, Joey B continues to earn hero worship for never coming through when needed.
Btw, since you've suddenly become "you are what the stats say you are" guy...
Joe Burrow in 7 postseason games: 9 TDs, 4 INTs, 260.9 ypg, 93.8 rating
Alex Smith in 7 postseason games: 14 TDs, 2 INTs, 264 ypg, 97.4 rating
It appears that Burrow is a pretty good regular season QB who performs at a sub-Alex Smith level when it matters most, yes? [Reply]

Ohh. Now do Joey Jumpball 4th quarter playoff TDs. Can you find 1? [Reply]
No worries though. If the defense doesn't bail you out, special teams will.
9 and uh oh!
You have to be a special kind of stupid to be a fan of a team that won't make the playoffs to come to the fan board of the back-to-back Super Bowl champions, who are 9-0 to talk shit. [Reply]

Go see what happened in '03 and '13 when you started off 9-0. [Reply]

Like… wear a helmet for his own safety type stupid.
Like we care about stats. Only reason we care about the regular season this year is because the Chiefs are undefeated. Otherwise, talk to me when the Chiefs miss the AFCCG. [Reply]

The one conversation I remember around here in '13 were people blowing their load on beating the Jaguars in the opener... of course, after '12, the bar was set really low, but of course as fans do, some took it to the extreme and thought they were playoff contender after that one game.
Looking at that 9-0 start, their SoS was .361, beating one team with a winning record (one that finished 8-8, and two others 7-9). In the remaining 8 games, their SoS was .554, playing 5 teams with winning records (offset a bit by a 3-13 and 4-12 teams).
Overall, giving them a SoV of .335.
For reference, the Bengals' current SoV is .237, which is the lowest in the league including the Panthers (.241). [Reply]
