Well since 4 of his misses are from 50 plus and are getting block, he must be losing some steam and has to kick it lower, or are your ST's just shitty with the punt return last week and these blocks... and don't bring up the Rams Punt return, that was as egregious non call on two blocks in the back that you will see...

That's absolutely a fair take. Tucker has been great his whole career. Butker has been nails all year but did go through a shaky patch last year. Both teams are set up great if it comes down to a game winning kick. Even though the Chiefs seem to have excised their past playoff kicking demons, I still can't help but clench up tight when it comes to game winning kicks. This will probably be one of those games.

And that's how I feel this week... that feeling of knowing the weakness of the argument that a team is unbeatable (Grapes, the Eagles cupcake schedule, and now Lamar), and thinking why not the Chiefs. ...but of course having really no idea how it plays out and not going the complete opposite thinking the Chiefs will win easily.

It could very much be like halftime of the Eagles game... oh yeah, they're pretty damn good. Or an also familiar feeling of nah... we got this.

I think it'll be a close game down to the end and would take Mahomes and this defense into that kind of battle ever single time.

DVOA champions!

Also can someone tweet that photo to @bobbystoupe so he can add it to the list.

Shes nearly unbearable to watch, not because her picks against the Chiefs, just so much worse than Kay Adams. I hope she goes on 12 months of maternity leave.

His 53 yarder he hit last week was straight through, could have just been a bit of a slump.

The breeze on Sunday could be tough, and it may very well come down to the kicking game.

They need to work that into their chant:

DddddddddVvvvvvvvvvOoooooooooAaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I am enjoying everyone talking up the ravens like the chiefs have no shot.
The bills said we had zero. Now they are all bragging we can't get past the ravens.

Hopefully our dline amps it up. Because they will need too.

Butker’s leg/foot was injured in the very first game on Arizona’s slippery field last season. I think it played a major role in his kicking issues throughout the 2022 season. I assume he is much healthier this season and it has really showed in his kicking ability, which has been super impressive.

I think back to corndog. Would we have converted both of those possessions without it? Maybe one, but both? That's a four-point swing right there. Outside of the margin of victory. An example of how coaching can directly impact the outcome of a game. I think people overlook the effect being outcoached can have on big games. I believe that's a big advantage for us.

Mitch calling for Spags to blitz a lot bc Lamar is 1st in QBR vs 4 man rushes

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">It’s funny all the Chiefs fans disagree with me and all the Ravens fans who watch him the most are like yup you know ball. It’s on you at this point if you don’t know how good Lamar is from the pocket.

His numbers are absolutely skewed though...they run up scores so his good games turn into 300 yard 5 td 50 pointers.

pugsnotdrugs19 01-26-2024 01:42 PM

Lamar has a negative EPA vs. 2-high looks this year.

Pasta Little Brioni 01-26-2024 01:49 PM

Remember the plan against the Eagles and Hurts on MNF...ya that's what's coming. Slot blitz roulette over and over
