Hate them. Want Allen to get hit hard.

One advantage KC has is they know what the Chargers do...not a lot has changed about them. They have had months to prepare for this early season quick turn around.
Conversely, Chiefs have 4 new WRs and a revamped running game....LA has essentially 2 1/2 days to watch what KC did vs. Arizona. It took an uncharacteristic 4 KC turnovers...most of which happened in Charger territory and a late 4th down game saving bailout call for them to barely win last year. Anyone who is somewhat honest... knows last years loss could have been a blow-out. Chiefs lost that game more than the Chargers won it...without the 4th down flag, the game was over. |

Definitely agree that the challenges with the Chargers are:
1. They can get good, quick pressure with 4... 2. Alongside a decent secondary 3. James is probably the only safety that can limit Kelce But if they've got Allen out that's a big plus, and likely a bigger loss for them than our walking wounded. I was pleasantly surprised by our running game. Not sure it'll be that easy on Thursday but it'll be important. We REALLY need to get some pressure with the DL. I know our secondary is going to get torched on occasion and it'll definitely be a tougher test but it was pretty encouraging seeing the overall defensive performance. OK it was a banged up and useless Cards team but still, didn't expect it to look that cohesive so soon. |

My only concern is injuries. Really, my only concern for the whole season, but especially Thursday, on a short week.
If Smith can't go, that's okay; I like Alegretti just fine. McDuffie and Gay are a concern. And Butker. |

Smith may be fine, so it might not be a concern anyway. I think Gay went back into the game almost immediately. Right? McDuffie is the biggest concern. If the Chargers are without Allen, then I’d rest him if he’s at any risk of making it worse.

McDuffie's injury concerns me. Hamstrings can be a lingering issue. He may need to rest this week.

Bosa and Mack against Brown and Wylie is a major ****ing problem. I see a lot of two and three TE sets to help mitigate

Last year the Chiefs used multiple TE sets (12 or 13 personnel) only 30% of the time. Yesterday the Chiefs used multiple TE’s over half of their snaps. I really hope this is our new offense bc it’s way better long term. Every RB combined for 125 rush yards and over 5 YPC and a major part of that was having 3 good TE’s on the field. Really really hope Andy keeps this offense as the staple hold bc it’s made for beating defenses like the Chargers

Using more 12 personnel is a thing I’ve been hoping to see since the Chiefs lost Super Bowl LV. I’d like to see them have two well-rounded TEs who can do everything, and I’m not sure either Gray or Fortson really do that, but Reid has found a way to make it work.

At least we rested starters in the 4th.

The KC Chiefs are my favorite team, The homeless Chargers are my least favorite team. I want Pat and Co. to beat them like a rented mule!

The chargers secondary in the fader game was pushed back for a large part of the game to negate the big play and they were succesful at doing so.
It will be interesting to see how they perform against a completely different Chiefs offense that emphasizes longer drivers by throwing in shorter distances. They also applied plenty of pressure on Carr thanks in part to the attrocious fader offensive line. Losing Allen is going to be huge for them. He is the motor of that offense. Without him, Herbert won't be as productive. Mike Williams was invisible in the game. They struggled to score against a pathetic fader secondary. We should win this game by double digits. It's a different Chiefs animal San Diego is facing.
