We didn't 'win' the last one. We fell back-asswards into a W because their rookie C snapped the ball early and then the refs decided that it wasn't false start, but illegal motion.

You think Michael Jordan only had a chip on his shoulder in his career after the fact? LMAO

he's not buying the back to back champs (but he is buying feet pics on onlyfans)

You may want to learn something about the psychology of most athletes who reach the highest level of professional sports. Spoiler: they usually don’t end up the best ever despite having that chip on their shoulder.

Your Peter Pan Syndrome is strong. You need to do better understanding basic statistics. It’s funny.

This is what I'm remembering, he thought he really had a chance, and it seemed it was brought up on whatever show he was scamming at the time, could be the same show I don't know. He's a bitter old foot fetisher.

Would love to know what any of this nonsense post has to do with Michael Jordan using any little slight as motivation throughout his career but I expect I won't get any kind of real answer out of you.

And he would love it. Especially the feet part

Like, yeah, people that aren't Michael Jordan can also have chips on their shoulder too and not be as good at basketball at him while doing it? Thanks for letting us know?

Exactly. I don't have a problem with what Rex Ryan said and he's not the only one saying this.

Also, the 2003 Chiefs are a perfect example of this if my memory serves me correctly. We all knew the team was going to be in trouble unless the D improved and it never did. With this team it's the same - they need to improve otherwise they will be in trouble come playoff time. May not be the 1st round but they will lose if they keep playing how they've been

But there's still some time to improve. However the clock is ticking. The Chargers will be ready to go next Sunday and playoffs are about what a month away?

I know Mahomes had a chip on his shoulder with Burrow before he ever played a game against him and yet he started 0-3.

There’s your real answer.

You can derive motivation from little things and still lose games, you know that right?

Haha. Thanks for proving my point. Players of lesser talent and ability can have all the motivation in the world but it still doesn’t move the needle. Hence, Rex Ryan isn’t changing the course of our season because he’s motivated Mahomes. If he’s going to play at that level, he’ll do it regardless.

Does having a foot fetish involve putting your own foot in your mouth?

Rex Ryan could shit on us every day for a month and it wouldn't guarantee victory over Buffalo next month.

Still doesn't mean it won't motivate Mahomes and the Chiefs though.

I dunno, the pressure they put on Burrow in the Burrowhead game was unreal... I believe the old saying is motivation shows up in practice/prep, but that was one time I wondered if "wanting it more" actually mattered (and up until that game, I would have said the same stuff you're saying).

Yeah, it's not some magic bullet... those games will still be 50/50 and guys like Mahomes don't solely rely on outside motivation like OP. However, if it was completely pointless, I'd wonder why Stroupe seems to feed him those things? :shrug:
