ChiefsPlanet - View Single Post - Chiefs Ten Things About Tonight's Game Week 6: NE 43 KC 40

I'm no fan of Grandpa Bob at all....but he's working with nothing out there. No Justin Houston, no Eric Berry, no Earl Thomas (lol), no Daniel Sorenson (you may laugh, but he's better than what was out there tonight). Part of me wants Berry to shit or get off the pot, but I know if we rush it then he'll be out for another year and a half....so I trust the Chiefs medical staff to make a sound decision. I'm sorry, I can't put this all on Grandpa Bob tonight. He was trying to make chicken salad out of chicken shit. It's no cure-all by any means, but I'm hoping KC is calling up Arizona to see about Patrick Peterson right now. This is a Super Bowl caliber team held back by a Pop-Warner defense, but it CAN improve through getting healthy and giving up future assets to make one big trade.

We came in shorthanded defensively and Mahomes was looking like the Mahomes of Weeks 1-4 in the second half. I know moral victories don't count in the standings, but I'm not too upset about losing on a last second field goal in Foxboro in primetime. The schedule gets considerably easier after next week's duel with Cincinnati and we have a fantastic opportunity to come out of the hellish part of our schedule at 6-1 with an easier road ahead of us (vs DEN, at CLE, vs ARI, OAK (x2)) There are a few landmines in there (at LAR, vs BAL, at SEA). With Mahomes in tow though, I firmly believe that for the first time since I became a Chiefs fan in 1993 that we are the ones to be feared and not the other way around.

We'll get back on track next Sunday night and Mahomes will lead the way (even if the defense won't).

EDIT: Jordan Lucas looked good. I hope he sticks and doesn't go "Marcus Cooper" on us.
