I meant go to four consecutively, not necessarily losing four consecutively. And of course if the Chiefs did get to a fourth in a row, Theirs would be better than Ours because they won at least two. And honestly, they would be right I think.

How long before the narrative for next year is can the Chiefs tie the Bills as the only team to go to 4 consecutive Super bowls? Or is it already out there and I haven't heard it.

It seems like Brown realized he could over commit to any kind of rush move to outside by the edge rusher because if he does get beat on a reverse or spin to an inside move, Allen recognizes the defense has lost contain and will drift or flat out break the pocket to his right and he is deadly outside the pocket on that side. So Brown now has a real advantage on any outside move and can get away with getting beat inside to the extent that it almost seems like they are baiting defenders into taking an inside rush so Allen can do his thing. Maybe this was happening before but I really noticed it this year.

Yikes! That man is a beast.

I am hoping he becomes the quirky character you often see on the great teams.

The last word I heard was snow arriving in the third quarter according to the experts. But who really knows.

At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if somehow the Chiefs get a terrible call against them next week. Not because someone is making a conscious decision to "script" it that way but because the humans that referees the game have to hear this stuff and maybe, just maybe, those 50/50 calls don't go the "face of the league's" way by default.

I have always assumed the refs talked to players between plays when they were pushing the limit so to speak, a warning that next time there could be a flag. Haven't been to enough live games to know what happens between media timeouts to know that a sideline conversation was so unusual but the consensus seems to be it is.

Snap-shotting what I am wearing for next week. Luckily it will be appropriate for a Super Bowl party.

Oh I meant the talking heads as scripted... they figure the Bills will be there next week, use the Broncos stuff this week.

Rawr! LFG!

Reality show scripting... whoever gets all the face time in the first episode always gets eliminated. Here you go, these guys are great... oh wait they are gone."

And for Rasul Douglas it seems to have been the reverse. Traded on the cheap by GB and now a solid starter.

I just wish people would put Barkley's season in the proper perspective. It has been an amazing year and while he may get the most yards ever in a single season, his 124.8 YPG puts him just outside the top 10 in single game average over a season. If he averages 150 yards a game the rest of the way (4 games) he would average 130.8 YPG. If he averages 200 yards a game the rest of the way (4 games) he still wouldn't reach O.J.'s average. Barkley would still be at "only" 142.5 YPG.

I keep hearing "Most yards in a season." If Barkley has 250 yards this week and 250 yards next week he would have 4 yards less than O.J. after 14 games. Certainly a Roger Maris style asterisk would be warranted.
