Chiefs have been to 3 AFCCG in 50 years. Ravens have been to 4 AFCCG in 24 with 2 SB's. Enjoy your win Your goading is understandable. It happens when a fan of an excellent and powerful team with a great young quarterback is faced with the prospect that it may all be for naught because another deep team has a quarterback who is simply out of this world and is guided by the best offensive coach and the most speed and targets for that otherworldly QB to throw to. Your comments are based on frustration and fear of becomng, going forward, what the Chiefs once were...a team that could get to the dance but not win the big one. The teams that win the big one are almost always the ones who have the best QB. It is like Manning or Elway or Brady or Farvre or Marino, or Montana. Lamar Jackson will be a fine QB who will lead the birds to many playoffs. But in the absence of odd fumbles or interceptions or injury to Mahomes, they will never get past him or the Chiefs. We all know that. Ravens fans will learn it and hope for an occasional championship whenever Mahomes is hurt. I've been watching football for about 65 years, and I have never seen a QB like Mahomes. Never. He truly floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee, is mentally brilliant, has perfect vision, a cannon for an arm that can throw at any angle with great accuracy, and is a perfect team leader. And he works harder and spends more time in the film room than any player around. He plays under the guidance and close friendship with one of the greatest offensive coaches of all time. He is rabidly competitive and is a friend of every teammate. They would all walk over hot coals for him. He misdirects and alters defenses with a glance or shift of his eyes and processes information like a quantum computer. Every game he does one or two things that are simply astonishing, that leaves my mouth agape. azchief21, Mloe68, xen and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because at 13-10, Mahomes threw an INT. 6 plays later its 20-10 Next possession, Mahomes throws another pick. 49ers can't capitalize, punt it back. Thats the defense Mahomes wouldn't have had to 'comeback' if he didn't 'set them back' with the back to back INT's As Peyton Manning once said "Comeback? If I had done my job right, we wouldn't have had to comeback" JMO Lots of people go from being the goat to the MVP, all that matters is who made the plays to win the game and it was 15. It's not like Williams was the one keeping us in the game while Mahomes 'struggled'. Imagine if LJ responded to winning the Titans game after his 2 picks' he threw, yet he did not...

My guess is you probably have no one on your roster who's been to the AFCCG but go ahead and brag about being there in the past!!! 🤣 Hey but if you want to talk about historical facts, your QB has choked in his two playoff games putting up a whopping 3 points through 3 quarters in the Chargers game and 6 points through 3 quarters in the Titans game. So I wouldn't go down the route of using history to define future success.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have edited that into "open" or something. Agape sounds more intense. I think of it kinda like when your jaw drops. It actually does. Some of his plays are jaw dropping. mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaches panicked in that game calling for 70 passes when the running game was working. As far as his INTs, i heard slot if people defending Mahomes deep int.

Vick had a better arm but had a hard time handling NFL offensive systems. I remember Andy scaled back his offense back quite a bit for him. Man did he have a day at GB in the playoffs though. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHard 2,061 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 If your a running team, never quit running. If you are a passing team, never quit passing. I hate when a running team gets behind and quits running and I hate when a passing team gets a lead and quits passing. Dance with the one that brung ya, daddy.
