You all are a little late with this narrative.

We shouldn't do this. I can see doing something like this:

15 (Mahomes) + 32 (Bolton) + 7 (Butker) + 4 (Rice)

or maybe

15 (Mahomes) + 38 (Sneed) + 4 (Rice) + 1 (McKinnon)

But there should be no connection between this team and teams that didn't win.

Not a connection to any team(s) that didn't win. A connection with a Chiefs' Hall of Famer who died way too young.

Schrager made that DT 58/SB 58 connection on GMFB this morning. I thought it was nice, honestly. He did a good job with his entire tribute to DT.

I still can’t believe we lost that 7 sack game.

Just the same name, jerseys, helmets, play in the same stadium.

There's no Chiefs fan anywhere of the DT era that sees the number 58 and doesn't get at least a flash of Derrick Thomas.

This is a bit silly.

Should've been an 8 sack game for Derrick

Defense has really stepped up this year to help get the chiefs to SB58 too. In fact I don’t think it would be a stretch to say we might not be in the SB without the defense this year. It makes for a heart warming storyline. I’m here for it

Say what you will - the kid makes it all better!

Happy bday to my all time favorite Chief!

Happy heavenly birthday DT58

That is a perfect example of what "Because Chiefs" is all about.

I remember that game so well. He just missed another sack as Kreig slid up in the pocket and fired a rocket into the end xone for a TD. I think Rob Thomas caught it.

The no TD game for the Steelers against us stands out, beating the undefeated Packers one year, beating the undefeated 49ers with Steve Young was another, the Derrick Johnson strip sack of Mariotta was that a fumble bit stolen from us, no punt playoff loss, I could go on and on.
