That looks like horseradish root, even worse! Good find!

Beating KC today would be a big step in the right direction. I looked at the Pats, Chiefs and Bucs as the 3 headed dragon Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills must defeat. Head one has been severed. 

 

Head two awaits us... 

 

i think a big part of it is a Sunday 6pm start.

My maturity level is not very high and at 57 it probably won’t change. I promised myself that I wasn’t going to get wound up about this game, but it didn’t work. I will be crushed as a Chiefs fan if we lose, but after watching those games yesterday I am grateful for what we have for a quarterback. Tannehill just sucks, and Rodgers is a weirdo without a champions heart. Neither Mahomes or Allen fall in either of those categories. Both have talent and immense heart. It will all be left on the field today regardless of the outcome.

Agreed. Whichever team loses today (because someone has to lose) isn't going away anytime soon.

Everyone seems pumped. The pizza delivery guy gave me a "Go Bills" on his way out the door having no idea whether or not I was a Bills fan.

I love listening to the talking heads when they're explaining the Chiefs and how good they've been since we hammered them there.

 

Ignoring:

1.  Their schedule.  They've played 3 good teams (outside of their division).  Beat the Packers (who were without Rogers) 13-7, beat the Cowboys 19-9, and lost to the Bengals in a game they needed to win to be the Number 1 seed.

2.  Their improved defense...which has faced just about no one all year.  They gave up 34 to the Bengals and 28 to the Chargers - who are the only truly strong offenses they've faced.

 

This is not an indictment of the Chiefs but rather how bad these "analysts" really are.

But the same could be said of the guys going on about the Bills defense. How were those Qb’s you faced this year? The only decent one was Brady and he did pretty well. The rest are bums. Bottom line none of us know shit about how it will end up. Neither do the coaches or players. I was really surprised last night as were many packers fans I know. They are barely hanging on this morning packing up their cheeseheads for another year. 😂

You're preaching to the choir.  I've contended more than often enough that our defense is mostly a mirage.  There are at least 10 defenses that regularly play better than we do, especially against the elite QBs.

I was thinking this yesterday watching the Titans sack Burrow at will and the Niners basically shutting out Rodgers for the last 55 minutes.  What were those defensed ranked?

[Alaska Darin]

Green Bay's defense is legit too - they lost a game where they allowed 12 first downs, 4.1 YPP, 212 yards of TOTAL offense, and six points.

 

I keep going back to the RB not going outta bounds at the end of the first half, which basically let the Niners off the hook and let them regroup.  What a dumb &#%$ing "great" play that was.

The thing I didn’t get at the end of the titans game was WTF were they doing before Tannehill threw the last interception? Seems they weren’t trying to get into position for a field goal, kind of running the clock out with over a minute left and timeouts. Then he throws a contested pass for the INT. Very weird way to play for sure. They obviously had no confidence in him. Mind boggling for sure.

That drive felt like Tennessee was playing for OT rather than to win

A blast from the past while we wait.

A lot of familiar names in that one.

Dr. Sack, Kenny Davis, Leonard Smith.  These are guys I loved that you don’t hear mentioned anymore.

 

[Foxx]

He is correct, that rule that allowed the offense to claim it was too loud for them to run a play was probably the worst rule ever devised.
