I definitely think the comment you’re replying to went overboard but idk that mahomes was really good yesterday either lol they were efficient when they got down to the red zone but their offense sputtered most of the game and it cost them. Chiefs offense got roughed up in the second half

This Sunday kind of proved everything wrong with Lamar and everything right with Josh imo. Lamar plays amazing until they hit a huge game down the stretch then he does a vanishing act. Josh might not dunk on abysmal teams to the extent that he could and usually hits a bit of a rough patch midseason but he is pretty much always on fire against the great teams later in the season

A bit hyperbolic on point 2 but if he’s talking about only somewhat recent games he’s not really wrong. Josh had an awful game against the chiefs a few years back. AFC championship he wasn’t great either but he wasn’t the problem

Even if it was no Bernard and we were down to someone other than aj klein I think we win pretty easily. Benford missed the game too we seem to always be out our best corner against them in the playoffs it is bizarre

Reid said he benched worthy? Haha I have to see this because he certainly didn’t bench him for any meaningful amount of time and a rewatch of the game/ snap count sheet is immediate proof it was just as much a bad throw by mahomes as it was a bad play by worthy…he really shouldn’t have been forced into dragging his feet on an absolutely wide open completion to begin with which im sure Reid knows

I think he still got around 60% of the snaps and led the wrs in snap count percentage so that cannot possibly be the case lol the wrs were pretty ineffective across the board so the chiefs tried a lot of different things Worthy is on the field a good amount and really isn’t contributing much

Samuel is a proven commodity in the league so I’d think so…he definitely deserves benefit of the doubt this isn’t like a Deonte harty expecting him to take off when playing with Josh type situation

Coleman was making plays in tight coverage against the opponents top cb without cooper even being on the field so it’s a bit of a different vibe for me at least. We’re also a lot more rational with Coleman around here than people are with worthy/the chiefs it seems lol so the standards are different. Nobody is saying Coleman is going to be the next elite wr in the league yet but some are talking up worthy like that after last night despite him completely disappearing after defensive adjustments pretty interested to see the all 22, seemed like we played a lot of man which mcd rarely does if he doesn’t like the wr matchups so that’s pretty telling if true

It’s so ironic lol people have been begging him to make smarter decisions with his body and when throwing the football for years and now he’s doing both and people still complain 🤣

Slowing down enough to slide without taking a hit is pretty tough when you’re running full speed…he hasn’t physically lost anything lol he’s just picking his spots better for the most part to avoid taking hits on plays like what you’re describing with a late slide the defender is very likely getting a big free shot in where Josh can’t really protect himself so the slide comes earlier than it seems like it has to I really think this is a good thing and the hand injury in week 1 finally got through to him. With huge games on the line you’ll still see vintage Josh like his big time run at the end of the game

I’m pretty unimpressed still…the guy had a chance to be the feature wr before they brought in Hopkins and pretty much failed the test. It felt like the bills played a lot more man than usual and no way they’re able to do that if worthy was any kind of serious threat especially with Hamlin in one of the safety spots since he’s not the fastest guy worthy was mostly just the beneficiary of the bills defense focusing on other guys and was pretty easily taken out of the game when we adjusted.

Completely independent of the bills I really don’t know if the chiefs are gonna pull off the divisional round win if we end up the 2 seed and they’re the 1 so it’s hypothetical in both directions lol that chiefs Steelers Christmas game should be really interesting. Coin toss win over an ok bucs team followed by that walk off blocked fg win against Denver followed by getting outplayed by a pretty banged up bills team is not feelin the same to me as years past for them but you never know. Really felt like the bills left a good amount of points on the field in this one and only briefly trailed by the smallest possible amount

They were the healthiest team by a long shot in the playoffs and it showed. Perfect timing because they were suddenly not a tier above the competition anymore lol having to play wildcard weekend didn’t even affect them much because that dolphins defense was so comically injured that there was no way they were losing that game. Their path to the afc championship was kind of ridiculous I don’t think the bills and dolphins combined could’ve fielded a good defense with all those injuries

They really lucked out with that onslaught of linebacker injuries for the bills down the stretch last year or they would very likely be 1-5 against the bills since their afc championship win with the only win being that freak 13 seconds occurrence. The story is just the bills won’t ever win the playoff game now though 🤣. Like the chiefs don’t take these ridiculously important afc matchups seriously in the regular season or something. you can maybe sell me on them overlooking the raiders or something like that but they’re not phoning it in in games against the bills and ravens in the regular season lol there’s just no way

That Texans game cooled some of the lions hype for me…Goff looked like an absolute potato. They didn’t look particularly great on offense against GB recently either not that they really had to but Detroit does basically everything they can to run up the score so it’s worth mentioning. I think this is a situation where they’re great but still somehow overrated. Reminds me of a better version of last years dolphins where all their real damage is done blowing out bad teams and they look like a good football team and not some unbelievable world beater against the better teams in the league I think that ravens offense with their bunch of threats at tight end and qb that can run on top of Derrick Henry was a tougher matchup for us. If we weren’t comically injured in that one that’s probably a one score loss

I think we’d drop 50 on them this year but they are gonna avoid us by missing the playoffs luckily for them 🤣. They remind me of the jets a bit where people hype them up because they’ve got all these offensive weapons and their defensive is good historically but in reality this season the defense is actually dogsh*t lol

Living off that aka not winning a Super Bowl lol if lost Superbowls were worth anything the bills would be in great shape there 🤣 if the bengals finished the job I’m all for hypin them up for sneaking past the chiefs in the playoffs but they didn’t

I’ve been saying that for a couple weeks now let’s see if I’m right 😂. I really think the cardinals are the better team and the dolphins won’t be an easy out and they’re got Buffalo and Detroit too

The media in their never ending quest to hype up the jets and dolphins lol. The national media seems to never really know what’s going on with Buffalo. For example they probably saw Gabe Davis and Poyer/Hyde leaving as huge losses but none of those guys were great last year What’s gonna happen if the bills are in the afc championship and the chiefs don’t make it that far 🤣 that’s definitely seeming possible.. and a team like the bengals who have beaten mahomes in the playoffs is likely not even gonna make it to the playoffs this year…does that make them better than the chiefs still? Lol

His offensive weapons have dwindled a bunch over time due to parity(and age in kelces case). The chiefs of a couple years ago would’ve dropped 50+ on a bills defense starting very late stage aj klein at pretty much the most important position on the field. Idk why people are intent on claiming this is the same mahomes/chiefs offense of 2020 just because they won the superbowl last year. They haven’t been that over a big sample size. idk that we got his best shot but the rematch will likely be even tougher for them because we’re getting a lot of important pieces back and they arent. The Chiefs are kind of paying the piper for being the healthiest team in the playoffs last year…the universe is balancing it out. The last two-three regular season games are a lot better indicator of where these teams are at than the playoff game with aj klein imo. To each their own though you’re certainly entitled to your opinion if you took Bolton off the chiefs and subbed in aj Klein we would’ve absolutely demolished them in that game

Not even full health but getting knocked down the depth chart so far that aj klein has to cancel a family vacation is wild and was hugely consequential lol I mean if aj klein was getting victimized at mlb in this one the chiefs offense would’ve looked like it did in the playoffs last year. I don’t think people really understand what a crazy situation that was. Everyone complains about Hamlin not being starter caliber but Klein is probably 10 times further from being an nfl starter 😂. Its honestly kind of embarrassing on the chiefs part that that game was even close

Very very unlikely to return from Reid’s own words (lightly paraphrased)

There really wasn’t any reason to try to take single coverage shots in this one once they made that switch. Even on the 3rd and long plays we missed it seems like guys were mostly wide open

Watching Herbert lower his shoulder on a scramble and promptly fumbling was a nice reminder of how good we have it 😂

I respectfully disagree lol but we’ll see. Clearly there’s a line somewhere because the 1 seed qb in the afc sure ain’t gettin it and we just disagree on where it is you’d get sick odds for a futures bet on Goff right now id absolutely go for it if you feel that strongly
