MNF: Chiefs and Eagles

[Cuttinedge]

I use to halfway like KC but they’ve become the old Brady patriots with all the calls they get

and another drop lol. Chiefs really blowing their elite D by not giving Mahomes a single weapon. They definitely should've traded for a WR at the deadline, plenty of futures they could've traded. Also Kelce has not been the same player this year, whether that's because of his girlfriend or injuries piling up, idk, but definitely a concern for the Chiefs. Would be much less of one if they didn't have WRs as bad as ours.

Kelce is 34. It's normal.

I really don't understand how KC didn't find a way to keep Tyreek and pay him. If you can pair Mahomes and Tyreek for the foreseeable future you do it. Because if Kelce retires what do they have for weapons? Rice looks like something to work with for the future but what else?

I just saw where this one was headed when KC was absolutely dominating the game but only up 17-7. It felt like they should've been up by three TDs. Seems like that often comes back to bite you in the ass and it but then tonight.

That stat they showed were KC has scored the fewest 2nd half points of everyone in the league, 53, was crazy to see. Teams are eating Kelce alive in the 2nd half of games and challenging the other receivers to beat them, and they can't. Reid also still falls back on his tendency to abandon the run game, which is not a great plan this season.

Their wrs and running backs are bottom of the league. I'd honestly take our groups over theirs and ours suck

[Bear Hands]

KC learned they really should have traded for one of our amazing WRs.  We've got the speed and hands you want! /s  

Still really like Rice but they've got nothing else reliable outside of him and Kelce.

Eventually QB's will learn the lesson Brady tried to teach them.  If you want to win multiple championships, you have to take less money so the team can surround you with weapons.  As great as Mahomes is - and he's a far more talented QB that Brady - he can't do it alone.

They are bad, but Pacheco would be our best skill player by a mile.

Yea, Pacheco can play. I think Rice shows potential. But they definitely need significant WR help this off-season.

Disagree. He runs hard but he isn't more talented then Hubbard or sanders

Brady had a wife far outpacing his earnings anyway so it didn't matter. Maybe kelci can take a pay cut next year but I don't think Mahomes wife can offset his lack of income

You missed the point.  Brady could be single and never work another day in his life.  His wife's earning potential was irrelevant.  Brady wanted to win championships.  He took less money to facilitate that.

We hear players talk all the time about how they want to win championships, compete at the highest level, etc.  All the talking points you expect.  The difference is that most of them don't really mean it.

Nah he ain't doing that without his wife having a damn near billion in the bank
