I’ll be shocked if the Chiefs don’t keep this very close, especially after last week’s scare.
Predicting otherwise seems totally silly. |

Of course, he's really good escaping that pressure, so if we can somehow keep him somewhat contained and in the pocket, but with hands in his face, I don't think he can beat us. Of course, this assumes we do a reasonable job stopping the run. All of this is easier said than done, but we don't need a dominant defensive effort, we really only need a few stops along the way. And while history isn't indicative of the here and now, we have plenty of evidence that Lamar folds in the biggest moments. Maybe that's changed with a little more experience, but who knows (hell, it was only three games and a long offseason with no preseason ago - not sure how you fix "mental" in three games). The one thing I do know is the Chiefs have a guy that elevates the team at the most critical and crucial moments...It's a proven commodity. Regular seasons wins are great, and Lamar Jackson is a great talent, but mental toughness is hard to teach. You either have it or you don't, and while I think Lamar is definitely better with his experience now v. 1.5 years ago, He still reverts back to who he is when facing immense pressure: a very talented runner with very inaccurate and flawed throwing mechanics. |

Mentally preparing myself for the Peters interception that feels likely.
Also prepared to watch him give up 150+ yards. |

Thanks for posting.
Those 2019 highlights are telling. Yeah, the Ravens closed to within 5 points with 2 minutes to go... but they trailed 30-13 entering the 4th and scored 9 of their final 16 points on two drives that were extended by literal jump balls on 3rd and forever and 4th down. Game wasn't as close as the final, and KC will be lining up with much better offensive personnel in this one (Clyde Edwards-Helaire is a major upgrade from Darrel Williams/Darwin Thompson, which the Chiefs were forced to roll with in the second half, will have Eric Fisher and Tyreek Hill, non-gimpy Mahomes).
