Miyagi-Do Karate

they can do what the browns did last week. Maybe not run as well— but run well enough and then do better in the play action pass game. The more I think about this game— I think we will see a very browns’ like personnel package out there.

yup. Minkah played and Josh made him look silly. Not sure you remember— but that corner TD pass to Gabe Davis in the Steelers game. Minkah was basically dating Josh to throw it and I think grossly underestimated Josh’s arm strength. He zipped the ball in and minkah couldn’t even get near it. that’s why I am less concerned with Honey Badger. Josh has made a lot of elite DB’s this year look really bad. If guys like Minkah, Howard, Sherman, and Jackson were getting schooled, I am Not sure there is true shutdown-type DB that can stop Allen and Diggs.

People thought I was kidding when I said that I was predicting Lee Smith to be the biggest difference maker this week. I think we will see more of him and a Knox out there. They are going to pound it at times— not necessarily a lot— and get sneaky with the TE’s in the pass game. sort of what they did to Miami in the week 17 game.

Honey Badger is a baller. But I would put Minkah ahead of him re best safety in the league today.

I still think EB ends up there.

We are out of town and so I missed the game. Appreciate the summary. Glad to hear Griffin played better. When Pitt smoked us, he was probably the weakest link— get crushed on the boards and on D and forcing a lot of shots. I assume Edwards went back into the abyss? Was hoping he would be a regular part of the rotation.

Not sure I am following you here. Are you saying the Chiefs were playing off and soft in the 4th quarter of the week 6 game?

I totally forgot about DHGate until someone on here reminded me. I got an old takeo off there, and it was great. Got my Josh Allen off there, and it’s great— high-quality stitching. It’s better than my NFL store old Bruce Smith jersey. If you are worried about quality, these jerseys are solid. But I get it if you want to get something local or official, or want a bigger size.

not sure if DHGate has 4x. But they are so cheap there that you may want to spring for a 3x even if it’s not the best fit. It’s like $20 for a jersey. They are Chinese knockoffs, but the quality is outstanding.

Agreed. To be honest, if JA can figure out NE and Miami— both of which scheme and disguise better than KC— he will have ways to minimize confusion. also, Matthieu is a solid safety, but JA has done pretty well against some of the best ball hawking DB’s this year. He made Minkah Fitzpatrick look silly a few times— and Minkah is in a different category than any other safety in the league, IMO. Not saying KC won’t get us on some plays. But the notion that JA will be befuddled all game may be a little much.

You try DHgate.com?

I am about to go down a major David Hasselhoff internet rabbit hole now.

Even in the first game With these guys, JA had 42 yards rushing. I think we need some of those QB runs. But more importantly— the little dump-off passes to TE and RB will be there all game. Need to just quickly take the 5-yarders.

Are you looking at hourly? Every hourly I am seeing shows little chance of rain until 9 pm. Even then, the chances are slim (though percentages vary between the websites). Also, don’t forget that times to look at are in central time.

I dropped this in the big thread. But will re-post. I have had “one day more” from les Mis running through my head all morning. one day more. Another day, another destiny. This never-ending road to Calvary! ... One day to a new beginning Raise the flag of freedom high Every man will be a king There's a new world for the winning There's a new world to be won... Tomorrow we'll discover What our God in Heaven has in store One more dawn. One more day. One day more.

if there are any changes, I am sure you, me, or one of the other armchair meteorologists will update us. It is amazing how much I have learned about the weather in the last 2 weeks. 😀

This was fantastic! But a raw egg in that drink though...

It’s actually looking pretty good now during game time. No rain. Wind at 8 MPH. Weather.com, accuweather, and nflweather.com all reporting the same.

When I was kid during the Bills SB runs, I would get so mad at our pastor on super bowl Sunday. He would only pray for the “safety of the players.” I was always thinking, “come on— you can’t just pray for a win one of these years?”

One Day More Another Day, Another Destiny!

Watching the weather radar.

I have seen chiefs fans this week brag about how their defense has been the best against WR’s— I guess least number of yards by WR’s. What do you all make of that? Something about that stat seems fishy, but I can’t put my finger on it. If you look at their games, some of the better receivers have had really good games against them (Allen, Ridley).

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/mission-impossible-buffalo-bills-might-165031845.html good analysis here re defending Kelce. The take-away is have to jam him at the LOS; if you give him a free release, PM will go to him right away and you are dead.

Congrats! Nothing like a Super Bowl baby. He/she will be such a spoiled fan.

This is so dumb that it’s hilarious. 😀
