Best suggestion so far

Pretty sure the Germans invented that

Their best chance against us is if mahomes doesn't play. They have a great defense that is highly effective against most of the league (personally I love aggressive DCs like Wink and Spags) so I don't think they change it up, but it could not be constructed worse against a team like ours. On a side note, "Wink and Spags" sounds like a great buddy cop movie. That, or a really dirty sexual euphemism.

Yep. 1% of the time, that works every time on us.

Contract tracing might kill this game. Guess we'll see. Per the NFL, here’s how they handle the return of players after a positive COVID test. Following a positive test, if the player is asymptomatic, he can return once: 10 days have passed since the initial positive test; OR Five days have passed since the initial positive test and the player receives two consecutive negative PCR virus tests at least 24 hours apart within that five-day period Following a positive test, if the player demonstrates symptoms, he can return once: At least 10 days have passed since symptoms first appeared; AND At least 72 hours have passed since he last experienced symptoms All players must get clearance from the club’s Head Physician in both cases.

Well that sucks. I hate night games. As others have said, if they do it Tuesday I call fowl. That's too many games in a short amount of time. They might reschedule the byes like with the Tits game.

Would it surprise anyone if the pats keep it close though? KC without 2 of their top 4 corners and a 3rd is playing with a broken hand. You just never know with the Pats. I am hopeful that CEH is a big part of the gameplan as I can see him, Sammy and Mecole doing a ton of damage if they concentrate on taking away Tyreek and Kelce like BB usually does.

Breeland pleads guilty in spring incident. Gets off with just a $200 fine. Any further discipline from league now that it's over? https://www.kansascity.com/sports/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs/article246186400.html

The only times we should be playing ball control is with a big lead or to give the defense a rest. Just much more efficient to let mahomes wing it. But yeah, sure is nice to know we can play whatever type of game is required.

Final injury reports. Jones questionable. Rest are a go.

yeah people are dumb. I think social media has probably put this debate to bed.

The Mahomes Effect Fear of Mahomes will get you out of a gameplan fast. Belichick is less susceptible to that than most though as he won't panic like the ravens. That said, he'll run it til we prove we can stop it. If we stop the run this game is over as they can't hang with us in a track meet.

Remember last time when they beat us in the AFCCG they used a healthy dose of ball control strategy to keep us off the field and it worked. But this is a much different team than that one, with more ways to beat you. I dont think that D can hang with us now so I think we'll see mahomes and co get up on them enough that ball control may not be an option. But hell its belichick. The strategy will probably be some crazy MacGyver shit involving paperclips and chewing gum, with a subplot where they sneak into Arrowhead and plant landmines under the field.

yeah I would agree on both points. Though TB has a lot of time to get it together before we face them. They certainly do have some impressive skill players in Tompa.

Thats not what I said. I said IF they run all over us. I think we'd win anyway but it is a formula to try and keep it close (assuming you can slow us down with your D as well) and you never know what will happen in a close game. Hell they gotta try something. Frankly i don't think there exists a strategy to consistently hang with KC.

If the pats run all over us it will be a long day for sure.

They need to make a documentary about that

Andy's Chiefs are 3-3 vs Pats. Taking out the 2 playoff losses to them, Andy's KC teams are 3-1 in the regular season vs Belichick. In the regular season here are your final scores: 2014 W 41 - 14 at KC 2017 W 42 - 27 at NE 2018 L 40 - 43 at NE 2019 W 23 - 16 at NE Cam Newton has an 0-2 career record vs KC Defensive DVOA NE is 25th in team defense DVOA through 3 weeks. KC is 13th. NE is 27th in pass defense DVOA and 19th in rush defense DVOA. KC is 5th in pass defense DVOA and 30th in rush defense DVOA. Offensive DVOA NE 4th overall, KC 5th overall NE is 1st in rushing DVOA and 10th in passing DVOA KC is 1st in passing offense DVOA (by a fairly wide margin over Buffalo at 2 and Seattle at 3) and 27th in rushing offense DVOA. There's a pretty good chance this is a blowout if our passing game is on point.

We're on to the Pats. Day 1 injury charts

Yeah but its belichick. I mean, dude can scheme up some crazy shit just like Andy so who knows. our secondary is really thin, but yeah that wr corp couldn't hit us at a better time.

6 weeks looks like average with surgery. Could be less if surgery not needed.

Former Chiefs QB's save lives. Current Chiefs QB crushes souls. Good week.

you mean that wasn't spontaneous?
