This place is on the perpetual rag.

I get how ridiculous it is but it's also a testament to the fact that we know these guys can play better on offense. If we're being honest both the fact that we know the Chiefs are inevitable and will find a way and the fact that the Chiefs are not playing well (either because of Andy losing his mind with the playcalling or Mahomes just being off on throws he used to make) can both be true.
I have zero worries about this team right now. They have ALWAYS kicked it up a gear in the post-season. And I have a lot of faith that the coaches know who to play and how to play them. But the execution on offense is off and even when Mahomes had time today he was still off. Maybe it's unrealistic to expect him to change the way he plays/feels out there in just one game and it was massively encouraging to see the O-Line not give up a sack today.
We'll be fine, but all the concern - while a bit goofy around a 13-1 team that holds opponents typically under 20 points per game - only shows the level of greatness we want for this team.
