Then & Now...Week 6 vs. AFCCG

[petegz28]

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.

Will he play? he was out last week.

Good thing that KC squad won't be motivated at all. This is really a look-ahead. Classic trap game...

Note I didn't say anything about the Chiefs D. Just the NEP.

Right but you still haven't acknowledged that the pass D improved right in line with the weakness of their opponents' passing offenses.

Their pass defense HAD to improve - they feasted on the Bills, Jets, Titans, and Dolphins.

Mahomes. Can we talk about how much his footwork improved since the Pats game? Pretty choppy on the quick stuff, even threw off his back foot on the short stuff. His footwork vs indy was superb. Watch the two games side by side.

But he's also seen a hell of a lot of blitz looks. Mahomes had to carry a limping offense during a brutal defense stretch. He's a hell of a lot more prepared for new England's blitz looks than he was early in the season.

Appreciate the intel Mr. Weatherman. But you would need a living god to lead them into arctic cold arrowhead, the loudest recorded stadium in the world, filled with 10's of thousands of people who despise and hate the patriots organization. Not to mention a Chiefs defense that will be licking their chops to get after Tom Brady who will need to go stride for stride against Mahomes. I don't think Tom Brady is a living god.

I've been taking one for the team the past 2 weeks with KC's historically bad playoff mojo. Just took another hit tonight. We got this shit.

I'm not playing this game. If you want to come out and say the Pats' pass D is overrated feel free. You won't hurt my feelings.

Is this trash talk?

I was just commenting on at his age, Tom finds motivation in unlikely sources.

[Chris Meck]

this is the worthiest opponent. If we win, we ****ing deserve it. We'll have beat the best of all time to get there.

I can imagine how KC sees playing NE as a pit stop to the Super Bowl. We've had a tough year. Tom's a year older, maligned run defense, shallow depth at WR and LB and Gronk pretty much retired.

Check your sarcasm meter...may need recalibration.
