The Chiefs, however, are capable of shutting down NE. Their secondary is completely different than in the first game. No picking on Scandrick or Shaw this time around. Plus Houston is back and in form. If KC continues getting pressure as they’ve been, they could make it a long night for Brady, as they did for Luck and his quick pass attack.

Your secondary isn't shutting down anything. Congrats on holding Luck to a 78 passer rating, even though his career playoff passer rating was only 72 coming into that game, but this offense is a completely different beast. You've got the best head coach of all-time and the best offensive coordinator in the league currently devising the gameplan, and the GOAT QB executing it.
We will have the vastly superior secondary on Sunday. Any objective person who understands football knows this. Our secondary has a guy who is 1st Team All-Pro this season, a guy who has been 2nd Team All-Pro 3 times in his career (and as recent as 2016), a CB who has the lowest passer rating allowed since becoming the starter, and a guy who has been in on shutting down Travis Kelce everytime they match up. Here is a list of the receivers we have shut down this season: Davante Adams, Adam Thielen, Stefon Diggs, Antonio Brown, JuJu, Sammy Watkins, Travis Kelce.
