Meck's 2022 predictions
 

Get your hot takes right heyah! 10 fabulous, hot off the press predictions from your fearless bus driver!


1. My favorite team, The Kansas City Chiefs, will win the Super Bowl.

2. Isiah Pikachu will be RB1 by game 5, and will have over 1,000 yards from scrimmage.

3. Mahomes will win the league MVP after proving the doubters wrong, and follow it up with the SB MVP just to rub it in their stupid faces.

4. The defense will finish top ten in sacks.

5. Furious George will hit 10 sacks and be a DROTY candidate.

6.KC will lead the league in scoring offense.

7. Justin Watson will lead the WR corps in TD.

8.Leo Chenal will be starting SAM by the end of the season.

9.Skyy Moore will catch at least 50 passes.

10. Frank Clark, in a resurgence, will tally....6 sacks. Oh well.

I don't doubt Mahomes, but his weapons outside Kelce are a different story. Actually expecting a significant struggle this season, especially given the brutal schedule.

the last time CM predicted us to win the SB - we mf'in won the SB!

Mahomes will throw 8 TDs in a single game

Only issue I have is with prediction #2. I expect no later than game 2 with a minimum of 2,000 yards from scrimmage.

A lot of crazy and homer-ish optimism here but then you end with a lowball of Clark? Your bus is less full than prior years.

Ima just gonna quote this.

I thought Frank stopped drinkingx to eliminate the stomach bug he always gets.

Nah. He's sick right now. Again. There's blood in the water. Yeah, its yours.

Happily bet you too, dude. Put your money where your mouth is.

These are predictions I can 100% get on board with

So it shall be

I predict the defense will have the lowest yards allowed per game since the 2015 team. Partly due to improvements and partly because I think the offense will be very efficient and methodical.

Smith-Schuster will have 1000 yds and 8 TDs.

6 is like 25% more than last year. That's an improvement.

And the rest is not crazy homer, it's all COMING.

:thumb:

This is going to be a hell of a ride!

I am IN!!1

I think the WR by committee is going to be a thing.

Sure, somebody by default will end the year with the most yards but KC won't have a WR1.

Instead they will have 3 or 4 WR2's.

The league will be dumb founded*.



*Although wait until they get film and have 3 or 4 years to adjust.

We're going to see different leading receivers in every game. Each week, a team will decide to take a weapon away, and maybe they'll be successful, but that will mean that one of the other weapons will have a huge day.

Betting what? I will bet you $100 he won't have more than 6 sacks.

Excellent. Done. We can do more if you'd like.

I was gonna set the over/under at 7.5 but you kindly volunteered 6 so we'll go with that.

The only sane reaction to this yet to be proven correct prediction

Meh. I had pretty high expectations for at least Juju and Moore but we're already having to play the load management game with Juju and we're not even to the start of the regular season.

I'm content with Clark if he gets 6, I think that's reasonable and improvement.

If he gets more, great, but I'm expecting 6. It's a prediction, you know?

6.

in the preseason? C'mon, man.

You're overreacting.

Chiefs win division, go to AFCCG again.

Bills vs Packers SB

Uh, not really? Dude can't even go in glorified scrimmages for a series or two to at least try and develop a bit more chemistry with Mahomes in actual game situations.

Yeah he will probably get 6.5 or 7 which still sucks. But sure you are on. Postseason doesn't count to total.

Okay now I’m erect

WRONG! You suck at predictions!

I like to watch this GIF several times because it’s nice and the woman seems nice as well.

YOU seem nice!!

Ok, Pete.

Done.

The floor for the Chiefs is 17-0 regular season and Super Bowl Champs. Conservatively at least.

Go to bed before you get beat up, asshat

I like it Meck. Sounds reasonable and yet homerish at the same time. TO THE SHIP!

I'm revvin' up the bus! Get on board mutha****as!

:D

Get the **** on or get run the **** over. Your choice.

McDaniels will meltdown because Raiders

Butker will be top 3 in FG'% made

This works out really well for me because my favorite team is actually the Chiefs.

Looks like I’m in for a lot of good times this season! How nice!

I’m ready for Mahomes to fill **** off mode. I’m talking Faid at Arrowhead last year **** off mode.

Hard to look at the final roster and say this isn't the best team from top to bottom we've had with Mahomes. Suck on that, fans of teams that are not the Kansas City Chiefs. I think we take this tough schedule and really surprise people. We're better and/or more experienced at every position group.

Super Bowl champions with somewhere between a 16-4 and 18-2 record overall.

This team is going to be REALLY GOOD. You are going to REALLY LIKE THIS TEAM. :Pimp:

I still think we're 12-5. I have no idea if that wins the West or not, and I don't think it's going to matter. I think we may stumble a bit early but by midseason they'll be humming.

It is called WITHDRAWL! He will get through this. :thumb:

Witnessed! :thumb:

WTF? Not going to happen! ROFLROFLROFL

Love it! IN! :thumb:

Good start to fund your trip to the Tampa game?

Yup, at one point I thought with a real QB he could duplicate his career high 1400. I'm off that hype train.

I think he will have some big games and wouldn't be surprised to also see him sit out some games.

But even if every WR basically stays healthy, my guess is a lot volatility game to game in stats.

Just a guess, can't wait to find out.

Alright, if we’re finishing top ten in sacks.

In 2021, the Titans and Browns tied for 10th (actually 9th) with 43 sacks.

Between Karlaftis and Clark, that’s 16 sacks. Where do they other 27 come from?

I really like the Chiefs on offense this year and I loooove their LB corps. But I’m worried about the inexperience of the secondary, and, well, the entire DL aside from Chris Jones.

Jones can get 10. Dunlap can get 7. That’s 33.

Wharton gets 3-4. Nnadi and Saunders each get 1-2. Danna gets 3.

The linebackers and DBs combine for 4-5.

If Karlaftis and Clark really combine for 16, then it really isn’t too hard to believe we finish in the mid 40’s.

Reasonable.

I’m not as optimistic, but I think this is all reasonable.

My prediction would be:

Jones at about 10, Karlaftis at 10, Dunlap gets his perennial 8,
Clark gets 6, Wharton get a couple, Danna gets 3 or 4, Nnadi gets a couple, then you'll get some from Spags blitzes, with Sneed getting a couple like always, and Gay will get a couple and look for Chenal late in the season to pick up some pass rush/ blitz duties from the SAM spot.

Really, other than the rookie Karlaftis, it's not expecting career years from anyone. Just solid seasons from your contributors

We were like 7th in pressure rate last year, just couldn't finish. I'm going to back Veach and the secondary revamp and say that coverage problems were part of that.

Also-
I expect some blown coverages early in the year, but that overall the big increase in speed and physicality in the back 7 will be worth it. By later in the season, though, this defense will be very good.
