11.Today is November 11th. 100 years ago today at 11AM, The Armistice ending World War One was signed. Bells tolled across the nation to mark the end of the Great War. 100 years to the minute, they tolled again.

We celebrated the men and women who keep us safe as they serve the nation. My Dad and Mrs. B’s Dad were both Army Vets from Korea. Here’s a salute today to all the men and women on the CP who either served or have family members who served. God Bless America.

Nice start to your column this week and God Bless your family for their sacrifice.

9. Kudos to Mahomes for tying and then breaking a 55 year old Len Dawson record for most TD’s in a season, and we still have six more games to go! That’s truly shattering a record.

When you consider how football was played back then, it truly was an amazing record by Lenny the Cool. Way to go Mahomes! Many more records will fall for sure.

8. David Johnson WAS the Arizona offense. Fitzgerald was relegated to picking up third downs on slants, and only had fifty yards.

I'm not positive but I thought the last time we played them Johnson had a huge game. He is a good player for sure. Also our run D is still pretty porous.
I don't understand what has happened to Fitz. Guy is HOF worthy with his talent but they seem to not be featuring him in their offense, which was fine by me! Puzzling but helpful for us.


7. Both QBs were sacked five times. Fisher had an especially bad day. Not Patty’s best day, but it was enough.

I don't think Fisher has had a very good season. If you look at the prior games, he seems to be getting beat more and more but worse yet is he seems to be having a LOT of penalties this year. I don't remember him having so many last year.
The opponents game plan is clearly gang-rushing Mahomes and giving him little to no time to throw. Cardinals sent 6-7 guys often and Mahomes had a tough time trying to get a pass off. Our OLine needs to play better.


6. Defense played well only giving up 14 points, but remember who we are playing.

Having Houston and Dirty Dan back gave our D some better talent and a spark. I think the rest of our guys played just a little better and I think the D was better this week with penalties. I think they had 3 and the offense/ST had 5 or 6. I'll take any improvement at this point.

4. Penalties! Is it just me, or does Bruce Arians look like a Jazz Musician from 1961???

It's hard not to think that we are going to lose a game when one of the many stupid penalties we are getting costs us at the end of a game and that scares the shit out of me. On EVERY great play we make on either side of the ball, my first inclination is to look for the yellow flag, not celebrate the play. That's sad!
If you think Bruce Arians is hard to look at, you should try listening to that jackass! He is the WORST and that's hard to believe considering we get stuck with Dan Fouts 25-33% of the time doing OUR games.


3. Kareem Hunt has to back off on the high hurdles. I’m afraid he’s going to hurt himself trying to leap tall buildings in a single bound.

I'm less concerned about that than I was watching Tyreek leap into the stands. While it was funny, he risked twisting his ankle or getting hurt doing that shit with his cleats onto concrete and steel. Guys got to stop trying to out-do each other with these TD celebrations as they are getting stupid.

1. Mexico City here we come. The extra day of rest to prepare for the Rams will be beneficial. The altitude and shitty stadium turf will not.
Stopping Gurley will be a chore.
If KC can win, they’ll be 10-1 at the bye.
Tennessee did us a big favor by putting it on the Hoodie, so now it looks like if we can keep going and do Phyllis like we normally do in December, we could actually, FINALLY get an AFC Championship game at Arrowhead.

Great to get ANOTHER prime time game and I'm psyched for this. They were showing how horrible the field condition is right now so hopefully, which I'm sure is the case, the NFL will re-sod the whole field and it will NOT be an issue. I do not want either team to suffer field condition injuries.
If we can key on Gurley, hopefully we can slow them down without one of their top WR's, who got hurt yesterday.
I was SOOOOOO wrong about where the Chiefs record would be at this point and for the year. I love being wrong about that!
Thank you Tennessee! Pushing the Pats back another game from us is great and we need to keep the Chargers from squeaking by us. Home Field is SO important for this team at this point, more so than the past. Gotta just keep winning.
Nice write-up this week GBlowfish and hard to disagree.

One VERY POSITIVE point you didn't touch on was that we came out of the game with NO INJURIES. At this time of year and just one more game before the bye, this is a good thing for the last push of games to close the season.

This was a very strange game for me as I had a real hard time getting into the spirit of the game. Maybe it was everyone saying we would win or blow them out, or that we play the Cards so infrequently that they don't inspire any hatred or passion like other teams. Whatever it was, I didn't feel the normal highs and lows but whatever, I know Monday Night's matchup against the Rams will be exciting for sure.

Thanks for the 1,000 time and the extra touch of WWI tribute was nice!

NOW LET'S GO KICK THE RAMS ASS!
