With RB Isiah Pacheco expected to be sideliend 6-8 weeks, the Chiefs are bringing their former RB Kareem Hunt back to Kansas City for a Tuesday visit, per league sources. Hunt could help fill the Chiefs’ running back void. pic.twitter.com/nDzNGlrcuH

3:1 is a great trade off.
Sutton would've been subtly encouraged to 'retire'.
We were making moves towards a 4-3 defense the year before we actually made the transition. They'd already decided to move on from Bob. [Reply]

That's precisely what is happening. One of the most significant subplots of Super Bowl LIX is being written right now. [Reply]

I realize the issues. Our shiny new WR toy was broken out of the box. Starting RB is out. Offensive line is a work in progress. Kelce has clearly lost a step. Worthy is raw and still learning. All of it has taken a toll on Pat's play. And two of our first three opponents are rivals who passionately hate us and play out of the minds against us. And even if they weren't, we always get everybody's best game because everybody wants to knock us off the mountaintop.
31-14 would be a welcome change from this weekly gut-wrenching, down to the wire slog. That's frankly the sort of score one would expect from a back to back defending Super Bowl champion. It really isn't too much to ask to at least get it ONCE IN A WHILE.
Ummm, we totally do it on purpose because it furthers the narrative that the Chiefs are the unbeatable boogeyman. Blowing teams out can be written off to what’s expected, but these type of wins, combined with almost always capitalizing on a few timely and questionable penalties in our favor really sets the story.
What the league sees now is that even when the Chiefs look their most vulnerable, we’re still inevitable. You can take us down to the wire and you will still lose every time. Andy and Pat are sewing doubt into the minds of every GM, coach, and player. When playoffs come around, we’ve beaten these teams before we even take the field. Any given Sunday doesn’t apply to this team. There are no fluke wins. There is no 19-1 Patriots.
