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.

This ankle isn't as gimply as that one but he's not getting any younger. [Reply]

The Chiefs have won 19 of 20 games.
That's better than 2018 Pat.
Is this what you do in the doldrums of a lost season? Desperately grasp for straws on a message board for the team with the best record in the NFL in the darkest hours of the night? Sad. [Reply]

No. I'm just keeping my fingers limber for when Pat and Andy aren't around anymore and i get to comment on what's left over.

Yep. You'll be just like Steelers fans. 10 years later you're reclining in your duct taped chairs with crumbs on your greasy tees and a natty light in your hand talking about the good ole days while your current team struggles to stay above 500. [Reply]

At least we'll have the memories of one of the greatest dynasties to ever exist. Meanwhile in Cincinnati... well, you'll always have shitty chilli [Reply]
Yeah. Let's take a look at those 7 gunslinger mahomes gwds this year.
Bengals - 1 incomplete and 2 runs before gwfg.
Chargers - 1 down field completion, 1 shovel pass. Everything else was on the ground. Rushing TD for the "gwd" with 6 minutes left in the game.
Bucs - Everything was a quick pass or checkdown. Add in some rushes and QB runs. Rushing TD for the win.
Denver - go ahead FG with 6 minutes left in the game. Gets credit for "gwd" on a blocked Den FG.
Carolina - Quick passes and a long QB run. FG to win.
Raiders - Credit for "gwd" on go ahead FG with 9:55 left in the 4th qtr.
Chargers - Quick passes/checkdowns. 1 down field completion. Add in rushes and QB run. FG to win.
In all of those "game winning drives" Pat completed 2 passes that traveled more than 10 yards down field. TWO. And both traveled barely more than 10 yards.
I give him credit all the time for being deadly at the end, but it cracks me up that all you guys that actually watch the Chiefs don't even realize why he's so successful on those drives. You're all over there arguing about 'what's wrong with pat--but good thing he's still clutch'. The reason he's so clutch is because he's smart enough to completely change his game at the end. He ALWAYS goes with quick passes and checkdowns, while getting some help from the RBs and popping a run himself from time to time--because that's the SMART way to do it. He doesn't try to play hero ball and throw lower percentage passes that could end drives or result in turnovers. He gets it out quick or takes off running, even if the pocket isn't dirty, because that's the way to win games.
But don't get it twisted (because i know you will), he's not out there carving defenses up and turning into SuperPat at the end of games. He's simply playing it smart. [Reply]
