This will be a fun thread to bump after the game next week.

redemption week.

Say, didn't KC just have a similar 1st quarter output against a much better defense?

if you think Houston will be going solely against their RT, then you haven't been paying attention. With Hali, Houston, and Ford they keep the attack point deceptively different play to play.

Houston is also elite because of the length of time between struggles. He may have a rough game, as he is human, but that doesn't mean jack shit in regards to it being replicated.

Nut up, or shut up!!

Haley returns

What a waste of money.

I think Houston has been shelved in recent weeks to ensure he's 100% fresh. He could have played. Don't be shocked if we see the Justin Houston from Denver #1. Dude is going to be FRESH.

Bucs and Titans say Hi.:)

:rolleyes:

We are not only going to win, KC is going to destroy Pittsburgh.

Bitch slap in KC.... watch.

Pitt looks like dog shit on the road and they are gonna run into a team full of players that got embarrassed the last time they played.

Recipe for an Ass Beating.

We should know too. It happened to us in week 4.

1) Those were close games that we should have won 100%. Most on here think we're going to be blown out.

2) Home national audience/prime time games this year have been won relatively easily.

#14 again.

Dolphins are gonna win LMAO

Oops Moore fumbles

Certainly not saying we're going to lose. If I thought that, I wouldn't be spending money to drive 7 hours RT for the game.

But to ignore that Pittsburgh's strengths being our weaknesses is foolish.

Going to need their best effort of the season on Sunday.

I don't think we will be looking past this one.

take our last 20 home games - do the math - then come back w/ the percentile - Hi right back to ya!

Will you sell your tickets to a PIT fan? Jesus, man.

Who here has said we're going to get blown out?

Maybe I missed it, but I haven't seen a single post saying that.

SR, it may have been awhile since I've told you, but I love you. No homo

Well, we beat PITT in the last home playoff meeting between the two teams.

Keith Cash to Freddie Jones to Joe to Tim Barnett.

It's not the specific words, but the idea that we should be scared of Pittsburgh. F**king why? Yeah they've got a couple really great players on offense. So do we. And we're rested and at home.

I just think it's a game to be excited about, not to fear.

By the way, props to OTWP58 for making a great reference of the title to the thread that is currently in the Hall of Classics, started by Crime Fighter.

That was our last home playoff win.

1993.

:clap: This.

I will say this, with almost any NFL caliber starting QB this is a tie game

Hey I'm glad that Steeler offense is firing on all cylinders today. And sure glad we don't have to play them in their place.

No one is ignoring anything. There's just no point in fans trembling with fear before, during, or after the game next week.

Over the last 6 games Chiefs have averaged 25.5 points per game. I think they can beat anyone that comes to Arrowhead. Bring on the Steelers!

id rather face the Texans next week than the Steelers but either way, we win. Now going into NE and beating Belicheck/Brady, that is going to have to be our biggest win since Lenny the cool Was under center.

Yep, was all about the callback to that thread - not an indication that I thought we're going to get killed.

for o'brien and crennel as well

Never forget it. I wanted to kill Lowery for missing the game winner in regulation.

BTW stop giving up on the team/#toughfans

**** em. Let's tee it uo, see what happens.

He's beaten much better teams. Falcons this year, broncos last year, pats and Seahawks in 2014. I still think the Raiders with Carr are better than these Steelers

Pittsburgh doesn't have anyone who can cover Kelce, or Hill, and probably not even Maclin.

Will the media say that? No, but that's the facts.

You have to remember the caliber of poster that doesn't understand CP history.

I think some of you are more preoccupied with who is doing the posting, rather than what they are actually posting.

Kyle should really just pack up shop and start saving himself some cash. You can't even have a football discussion around here without people getting their panties in a bunch.

No one is "scared" of Pittsburgh. But some of us are smart enough to recognize that they are a damn good team, and a bad matchup for us.

I can only speak for myself, but that makes me more excited for the game, not less.

Going to be a huge test. Hope we're up for it.

Not like we have a choice. Let's go Chiefs!

Shaziers pretty good

What Pittsburgh is doing to Miami today is what the Chiefs will be doing to Pittsburgh next week. Think about it. Miami destroyed Pitt early in the year at Miami and now the Steelers are exacting revenge at their place. Also, someone mentioned a mediocre defense. I just looked it up and Miami is ranked #29 in total defense and #18 in points allowed. Not a good defense at all. I'm really not sure how they managed to win 10 games.

Let's go get it. Make the win even better! I live for shit like that. :thumb:

OTW would get hammered by the true fans if he says we won't win so I'll say it for him. Pittsburgh is going to beat us.

Yeah, sadly the majority of the board now.

i don't think they have looked that good in the 2nd half so far. They are clearly the better team but we already knew that.

I wouldn't be spending hundreds of dollars and driving 7 hours RT if I didn't think we had a good chance.

We're certainly going to need our best effort, but we can win this game.

The more I see of this game, the better I am starting to feel. As someone pointed out, the Dolphins have 1 win against a winning team this year and it was against the Steelers with a hurt Ben.

And yet, if the Dolphins had gotten even average QB play, this is a game.

Seriously? Shazier can probably cover Kelce.

Definitely, it's definitely a big test and a tough matchup. But what are Steelers fans saying about us?

I'm sure they love the matchup, and that's fine, but they should realize by now that this Chiefs team is far different than it was week 4. Like way different.

ROFL

That's a good one

Shazier is very good.

Steelers play alot of zone anyway

Truth is they're going to play zone defenses for most of the game as they always do. But if you ask Shazier to 'man up' Kelce for most of the game, he'll get f**king torched.

No one thought we would run the table on our division..... Beat Atlanta and Carolina on the road with some luck.... Anything is possible..

Good point. And the Steelers average 24.9 ppg on offense. Despite the fear in some Chiefs fans on here, the fact of the matter is that they are not some juggernaut.

Mike Tomlin = overrated

Thanks Terry.

Gotta limit that counter. That is their bread and butter.

Of course we CAN win but I've always respected your takes. I find it hard to believe you don't think Bell is going to expose our make shift ILBERS. Combine that with our leaky run defense you're going to be asking Smith to do alot on offense.

29th in the league.

Ha ha, I forgot about that guy. That was in about 2003, IIRC. And then the Chiefs whooped the Steelers. :) I don't believe that guy ever came back after that.

Sure its gonna be a tough game, stopping Bell and Brown is a yuge test... but just like others have said, if we cant beat them in Arrowhead after 2 weeks preparation and rest, then we werent gonna beat the Pats anyway

Bring on the Steel Men

That's why I said earlier that the game depends on the right arm of Alex Smith.

He's going to have to have a great day, because I don't see our defense shutting down the run AND the pass. They may limit one or the other, but I struggle to see where they'll shut down both. Bend but don't break against an elite offense typically leads to "break".

Andy needs to be aggressive the ENTIRE game. Any let down, and I think we could be in trouble.

And like this entire season, some help from the special teams/defense in the form of turnovers/TD's will certainly help as well. I expect a tight game.

Optimistic
Worried
Chiefs Fan

I know one thing for sure - I'm damn glad I'm going to be at the game. I can already see the seeds being planted to blame the refs for anything that goes wrong on Sunday.

The GDT should be a hoot.

pfffft, they are playing against a back up with 10 points off TO's.

not much of a challenge.

this game does not make me scared of pitt. Miami has beaten themselves.

Why in the world are teams so enamored with Vance Joseph?

So when the Chiefs force turnovers, it's all their doing.

When another team does it, it's the other team beating themselves.

Can't have it both ways, fellas.

Great question.

Yep. What has this game proven? That Leveon Bell and Antonio Brown are good? I didn't need this game to know that

****ing hell. Once you daffodil smelling, Caramel Mocha Macchiato sipping, pants wetting candy asses realize two very important things -

1) Pittsburgh doesn't lose at home, especially in the playoffs

and

B) Miami has played maybe their worst game of their season today

you will come to the conclusion that we are not automatically going to lose next week. Throw in the additional factoids that Benny Rape is not the same QB on the road as he is at home and how the Chiefs want a little payback of their own, our prospects look better and better.

I like our chances.*





*provided Andy keeps his foot on the pedal with both sides of the ball


EDIT - AND Miami is down to their second and third string QB's here. Sack up, powder puffs.

PIT didn't impress me here today.

a back up turning the ball over is not the same thing.

I think we will win!

This be the defining game of Alex Smiths career.

We have GOT to attack this defense down field. Early and often. Their DBs suck balls and their LBs just sit underneath and tee off on receivers.

We can beat these guys downfield. We have to.

I am glad it's Pittsburgh. We need to beat the best. It's "kill or be killed" time. We beat them and we can go all the way.

IT'S B-B-B-BERRY!!! AND HE'S C-C-C-COMING TO K-K-K-KILL ME!!

Possibly.

I will say this, though - this is his 12th season in the league and there are no excuses anymore. He needs to go out there and remove all doubt of who he is and what he can do, even if it is only his sixth playoff start.

IMO, the Chiefs should be the first team to take a flag for a late hit. Hit them hard, late and often in the first 5 minutes. That way, if it's established by the refs that any late hits will be flagged, then you back off.

That's exactly what the Steelers did today and the Fins died a quick death after that hit to Moore.
