You see where the Chiefs rank on that list right? Don't see us making excuses for MVP Mahomes or the #1 offense in the NFL do you? Exactly. Drops aren't the reason that Trevor isn't on the same level yet.
As for this game, the Jaguars haven't seen the type of team they are going to play this week yet. A true title contender, in their house, when it matters most. That's no easy task. The Chiefs aren't the Chargers. As far as I'm concerned, the only other teams on the Chiefs level are the other two teams playing in the other AFC divisional matchup. That's what it takes. I'm afraid the Jags are just nowhere near that yet.
Your only real hope is to get the ball into Etienne's and Kirk's hands again on passes underneath and keep it close. That's the Chiefs' major weakness defensively.
I don't think you have the pass rushers capable of consistently pressuring Mahomes though, as was evident in the first meeting. That and KC letting off again isn't happening in the playoffs. I just don't see this game being close. It really wasn't the first time, but now it's playoff time.
I'm going with 38-14.
