Then & Now...Week 6 vs. AFCCG
There are some significant differences between the 2 games that are largely favoring the Chiefs imo.
1. Obviously it is at Arrowhead not Gillete + Chiefs 2. Josh Gordon will not be running around in the secondary + Chiefs 3. Kareem Hunt will not be pwning the NE D + Pats 4. Shaw (WHO?) will not be covering Gronk + Chiefs 5. Speaks will not be starting for Houston + Chiefs 6. Wylie will be starting for LDT - Wash 7. Ward will be playing at CB instead of whoever did in Week 6 + Chiefs 8. Lucas will be starting at Safety instead of ???? + Chiefs 9. (Edit) The Pats will not go with 0 penalties accepted + Chiefs Those are some very significant differences for this game and primarily on the defensive side of the ball. Take away a couple of offensive mistakes in week 6 and we still win. Now bring it to our house with an improved defense, at least personnel wise. Last edited by petegz28; 01-14-2019 at 03:49 PM.. |

All good points, Mr. peterz28. And valid ones, too.
It's also going to be -15 degrees Celsius. It was a little warmer in October. They say the Cheaters like the cold. Somebody pull the plug on their bench warmers and let's find out. FAX |

I really don't think the cold will play a huge factor against them in and of itself. Now, we start punching them in the mouth and suddenly freezing your ass off while losing a game starts getting in your head....

In my past experience at Arrowhead when it gets that cold it starts to sap the energy out of the Arrowhead crowd. Hopefully Mahomes keeps us warm with his nuclear-powered arm.

Gonna guess that the people who brave the weather for this showdown will tend to be the more relentless of our ilk.

But, we cant control the weather. Its still Arrowhead. The Pats have lose 3 straight on the road in the AFCCG. It's our time.

Overall i'm optimistic.
My one worry is the slow drives NE was putting on the bolts. Time consuming, wearing out the defense, keeping PM2 off the field. But, again, overall optimistic.

The Chargers invited that by running out 6 & 7 DB defenses. Brady saw that and they pounded the ball on the ground as they should have. Then again, I was saying during the Ravens\Chargers game that Brady was going to carve the Chargers defense apart. So what he did was expected for the most part.

Then again, wasn't that what we were told before the Greatest O-Line In NFL History took the field on Saturday? The Cheaters won't like our man-to-man coverage. NAMBLA Guy will want the run game and the dink & dunk, for sure. We'll focus on taking away the slant/flat game and that will be big. If we can also stop the run on 1st and 2nd downs, we'll be just fine. The other thing to remember is that NAMBLA Guy hates (I mean, hates) interior pressure. If #95 has a game and Sutton continues to scheme up some sweet stunts with Fiddy and #87, he will fold. Those hits in frigid weather hurt old bones. On the other side, I don't see how their defense can stop us with Sammy "Feets" Watkins in the game. They might not even slow us down much. FAX |

Biggest change has to come from how KC opens the game...
FG, INT, FG, FG, INT... halftime That's just not the way to do it vs the Patriots and while fighting back from that deficit of 24-9 was valiant, the defense has to own the first half. At the end of the day, Brady and that team are hell for anyone... they're not as great as they have been, but they're far from terrible. Lost @ NEP on a late FG... if KC gets a TD on one of those first 5 drives, it's a different ending most likely. This is Brady's 8th consecutive AFCCG... Mahomes was in the 8th grade the last time Brady wasn't playing for the right to go to the SB. But, the history is of little importance to him and for good reason. I think KC wins it by 13 on Sunday. I think it will be close early in the 4th, but something breaks with about 5 minutes left and a 6 point KC lead grows to 13 with the game ending on a Brady INT late. There you go.

Why is Wylie starting for LDT a negative for the Redskins?
