I guess I just have SB 55 ptsd.

Honestly I was ok not making a deep playoff run a few weeks ago but now that they are actually 2 games away from repeating I want it so ****ing bad. Please god let it happen

A clean game where they execute well throughout. Sometimes you can do that and still have negative plays or even turnovers here and there, but that's not what happened even last week. Last week they still had the Hardman flub that was just flat-ass stupid; a completely unforced error.

Buuuuut - last week was close. It was almost as well as they can play. Take last weeks game, remove the Hardman mistake and the Mahomes miss to MVS in the endzone, then add a full four quarters of effort from Chris Jones (because I do not think we got that last week) and substract Matt ****ing Dickerson (which, sadly, I don't think we'll do) and I think you'll have a 'complete' game from this football team.

That's a 34+ point effort and that team maybe gives up 17. At least against that Buffalo squad.

Against Baltimore? 31 points for, 21 against? Buffalo's offense was largely intact last week and couldn't do much once we made some adjustments with the front (i.e. we stopped getting cute and told them to play bully ball).

This team's played 19 games and we STILL don't know what it's actually capable of. How strange is that?

I can't even hazard a guess as to how this game will go. We just don't know enough about what this team can truly do?

Justin Watson dropped a perfect throw on 3rd down that would have gained 20 yards and a 1st down at the Buffalo 10 yard line. Butker made a very clutch FG into a tough wind from 47 yards (more like a 60 yarder). Watson’s drop made it a tough situation on the kicker. The dropped ball potentially cost them 4 points since they could have scored a TD on that drive.

Hardman obviously had the 7 point fumble mistake. But he also had an earlier fumble that completely wasted a play inside the Buffalo 10 yard line. Pretty much killed the drive. Thankfully Watson recovered this fumble to save 3 points, but maybe they score a TD on this drive if Andy simply does not give the ball to Hardman. Potentially 11 points lost on cutesy trick play BS with Hardman.

Bottom line is they could have easily scored over 40 points in that game. The other room for improvement is the rushing defense. They got pushed around for 3 quarters and it was nowhere near their best game defensively.

But Buffalo had a lot of those “what if” plays as well. So I guess it evens out. Lol

Don’t forget Conner falls on the fumble instead of going for the scoop n score.

Or the guys catch Allen’s Pick 6 ball on that same drive. Buffalo had some pretty fortunate bounces in that game despite their own mistakes on dropped balls, missed FG, missed TD pass, etc.

If it weren’t for every single bounce going their way, the game could have ended up really ugly. Like 42-17 type ugly.

Spags is going to bring this win home for us.

Our corners are going to completely vaporize Baltimores WRs. Sneed and McDuffie on Flowers and OBJ most of the game is a huge mismatch.

Sneed was going to house that if McDuffie didn't deflect it.

Looks like Ravens are getting Mark Andrews back. That's a big one.

Guys, Prisco picked us to win.

This is not good

Injuries
For the second day in a row, running back Isiah Pacheco won't practice for the Chiefs. Reid said the sophomore man did participate in the team's walkthrough, however. This is more of a rest situation than anything else, as Pacheco indicated on Wednesday that he plans to play this weekend.

The biggest positive news for Kansas City is that safety Mike Edwards is expected to return to practice on Thursday.
While it's unclear whether Edwards will clear protocol in time to play this weekend, he appears to be progressing well. Reid said the Chiefs will exercise caution with his practice plan.

Reid said his veteran linebacker is battling some neck stiffness and suffered a setback in the team's last playoff game. Gay is trending in a solid direction for Sunday but if he can't play, Reid is satisfied with Drue Tranquill's ability to offset some of the production lost.

Your desperation knows no bounds! You want so badly for your team to be what the Chiefs have built. But the biggest difference in the teams is your quarterback will never be in the same stratosphere as Mahomes… regardless of how this season ends for you. You should check out how many quarterbacks that never won a SB on their rookie contract, have never won a SB. Maybe then you’ll have a better understanding of what you’re up against (but I doubt it because you’re a delusional, pillow biter. Get your 1000 posts in now, cuz come Sunday evening you’re probably gonna have a gun to your own head!

Man we ****ing NEED Pop to be a full go on Sunday.
