You need to figure it out soon otherwise you might as well be BWillie.

I remember when everyone tried to tell us the Eagles had a historically great defense before the Super Bowl last year.

I don't care what other people are calling it -- I eventually rendered the Chiefs/Bills game a 50/50 game. I think it was reasonable that either team could have won it.

I do think the Ravens have the advantage here. Not a massive one, but an existing one.

I wished injury on Von Miller in addition to just beating him yesterday, but that’s because he’s a giant piece of shit (not because of a football advantage, since he sucks now)

Andy Reid always seems to have his best game plans dialed up for elite passrush teams.

They did a much better job than it looked. The forced Josh to be a game manager and they scored 2 TD's bc of 2 excellent catches from Shakir.

That first TD only happened bc of the insane catch. McDuffie had it covered perfectly. Gotta tip the cap sometimes

Best QB the Ravens have seen in awhile, especially in their building, was Stafford

He scored over 30 and they lost on a punt return in overtime

Playoff Mahomes can do anything we can imagine

They technically did on that first drive though.

The refs missed it and Reid didn’t challenge.

Crazy how giving a team a second chance almost always results in points.

Lamar got a 13 on his wonderlic. One thing Spags does great is disguise coverages and blitzes. He is one of the dumbest QBs ever.

Stafford threw for nearly 300, 3 TDs, no picks

In shitty weather too

Ballers can play with this defense

Last week the national media narrative was that Mahomes cannot play on the road. This week it will be that he can't perform against the #1 defense in their stadium. We might as well not even play the games with how some of the media people talk about it. But I am glad they create these false narratives, because it definitely motivates Patrick to prove the doubters wrong. When he has that chip on the shoulder, he can do incredible stuff.

Andy has probably had someone gameplanning for Baltimore since Saturday.

That might give us a minor advantage.

They had to wait until today to start gameplanning for us.

Maybe, maybe not, but there's nothing either of these teams will do that the other coach hasn't seen in person half a dozen times.

Harbaugh-Reid familiarity is very high.

Definitely remember that game. Mahomes was on fire and played pissed off and we beat the shit out of them.

We punted once, the drive after Thuney was hurt and Allegretti was in at G, and Andy went conservative. We had 47 play, 43 less kneel downs and scored 27 points, would have been 34 if Mecole doesn't fumble. We only had 3rd down attempts all day. We average 9+ yards a play. They had one of the best front 7s and were missing 3 other starters from their previous 3 games and our not only was good, but was dominating.

This is absolutely a 50/50 game. I could see Baltimore winning it, just like I can see KC winning it. What I do think is that regardless of who wins, it won't be a blowout. It will probably come down to a final possession.

What worries me some is KC's offense vs their defense. I fully expect Mahomes to be Mahomes, but it's the supporting cast that will need to step up.

I do think this defense will give Balitmore more fits than they are used to.

One factor that I believe will work in KC's favor that is not really being discussed is that KC will have to game plan to beat Baltimore which is an advantage.

The Ravens have been bullying teams all year, so I would not be surprised to see them line up against KC and play the same type of game that they have all year. Essentially play with a confidence that they can't be stopped. That could be a huge disadvantage for them, especially if KC doesn't get pushed around.

Get them off script and see if they can adjust in game or not.

Hopefully Roquan Smith will run his mouth some more to provide some extra to Petty Mahomes.

Yeah but they've never stopped our offense.

And last night the Chiefs gave the Bills a ton of shit they weren't ready for, and Sean knows us.

The would be 4-0 against Harbaugh if not for Clyde's fumble.

Gimme the Chiefs.

Yep POS Von is fine. Lamars actually thought to be a good dude. I was lucky enough to meet him at a SB party in Miami in 2020. He was super nice and chatted with my son and I for about 10 minutes. He did appear to be high as a kite though...

With the exception of the 2020 tilt when we held Lamar under 100 yards passing and the entire Ravens team under 300 the games have been surprisingly similar with Baltimore getting just north of 200 yards passing and rushing. We have given up yards but also seen Pat consistently around 350 yards passing with 12 TDs and 2 INTs in four games.

You gotta go

Their running game lacks explosion, Lamar is probably their most explosive runner. Losing Dobbins and Mitchell zapped all the speed so now they're back there with Edwards and Hill.

This is another thing I've been thinking about for a month.

If they want to try and 3 yards and a cloud of dust, be my guest. ROFL

That doesn't win playoff games in the Mahomes era.

Scared of allen/cook more than lamar/hill

Well yea, Cook has all of the speed and burst their RB's don't have.

Gus Edwards is great if you want 2-3 yards every carry.

I’m worried about Thuney. Make me feel better

Hell, Burrow still had the calf problem in that first game and the Ravens injured his wrist pretty early in the 2nd game. So I would say the Cincy stats are deflated compared to what might have happened if Burrow was healthy for both of those games.

Yeah, call it what you want I guess, but saying the Chiefs have a shot to upset the Ravens is, by any normal definition, underselling the Chiefs chances by quite a bit.

"I gave the Eagles a 51% chance to beat the Chiefs in the Super Bowl, but the Chiefs pulled it out in the end. What an upset!"

No one noticed he was out because Allegretti was more than serviceable...

LOVE those stats!

Meanwhile our D is averaging 17.3 against the good Qb's we've faced.

I agree with but as far as the supporting cast stepping up: Rice stepped up and was great in Miami. Against the Bills Kelce and MVS (!!) stepped up. I'm not too worried about the Chiefs not giving their best. If the Ravens win, they will have earned it

Look. For one game. ONE GAME. Andy just needs to cut the bullshit. For the love of Christ.

The world will be just as impressed if we line up and let Pacheco fist the Ravens in the redzone as they would be if one of his low iq/low success rate cutesy bullshit plays actually gains yardage.

Have we run a jet sweep that actually worked this season? I sure can't remember one. Double play action screens that take forever, that fool nobody but the guys trying to run it, and allowing Mecole Hardman to fumble 2/2 in the redzone. No trick plays with Mahomes out at wide receiver.

Just take all that stupid ass regular season vs dumpsterfire divisional opponent trash, and burn it.

If Pacheco is not paralyzed, or gasping for air, he runs the football.

If we need to throw, Kelce and Rice need to be on the field.

The world will be far more impressed with back to back superbowl appearances, than you getting your dick off on the sideline running dumb ****ing cutesy shit in an AFCCG.

ONE GAME.

PLEASE JUST LINE THESE GUYS UP AND SHOVE THE FOOTBALL UP THE RAVENS GAPING VAGINA.

wallcrawler doing his little shimmy

it makes the women on CP puke

Here, I’ll copy my old scouting summary I did after watching 5 starts of Allegretti’s 2020 season as starter:

Hopefully that helps you a little? He was better than the vast majority of IOL I graded out at the time.

Yeah. Stafford is what, 85 percent or 90 percent as good as Mahomes? Similar styles of play, similar strengths, more weaknesses on Stafford's side. Mahomes has more escapeability.

KC's OL is better than the Rams, too.

We keep hearing how everybody needs to step up, yet here are, back in the AFCCG, despite the drops, the penalties or not "being" the Chiefs of the past five years. This was considered a down year.

MVS was crucial in that win yesterday, and still can be moving forward. Hardman's speed provides a decoy. The play calling and time management was OUTSTANDING. Can you say efficient quick strikes?

I don't know how ANYONE can doubt/worry over a Mahomes led team that has now achieved 6 straight Championship games.

Good play caller and QB combo in today’s league means you always have a chance, even against excellent defenses.

If Mahomes has a truly bad day, it’ll be the first time he’s done so against the #1 D. And in the playoffs too? Would be a shocker.

If we don’t over analyze, it’s becoming more clear that Lamar is gonna have to kill the bogeyman himself with a game of the year performance if they’re going to win, most likely.

Nagy and Andy have turned the offense into a 13 personnel demolition crew. They did this against NE, Miami and now Buffalo. Offense scored 26, 27 and 27 in those games.

Disregard.

He good.

Nobody can read it because Musk is a ****ing dipshit.

The experience in the Baltimore stadium is fun. I was there when we lost to them in 2022, the beer prices were great and the stadium was nice. It sucked that we lost, but I was never in any danger or treated poorly.

i read it just fine

musk owns you

This feels like an evolution of New England's two tight end sets with Gronk and Hernandez.

But we murder EVERYONE!

Right...

So many people who are perpetually wrong are picking the Ravens

Thanks Colin! No, seriously. I mean it.

This needs to be jammed into the faces of the entire Chiefs team. Keep providing another chip on the shoulder for this team.

If you're Baltimore what do you do? You can't blitz. You literally can't. Mahomes destroyed the Dolphins and Bills. You have to pray your front 4 can get there and beat this OL.

Didn’t he pick them to go undefeated they year after we won the Super Bowl and curb stomped them in their own building?

Disagree on this one, too much excuses for allen, lamar was missing his #1 target and 2 best running backs and still elevated his team, while Josh had weapons like diggs/kincaid/cook/davis and a top o-line. All Lamar has is a better defense, And I don't know what games you've been watching but he has to be special for them to win games, unlike allen who joe brady has been game managing in those games they won.

Another thing is as the game goes on KC’s defense gets better and better. If their offense is able to hang in, I love their chances even more.

Let's Talk About Baltimore (AFC Championship)
 

I have to say, i am more confident going into Baltimore than i was heading into buffalo.

Looks like Thuney crotches down to give Pat a better throwing lane

So they’ve lost to Pitt, Indy and Cle. Indy and Cle were at home.

Sorry, but when we’re rolling as the 1 seed we’re not dropping multiple games to mediocre teams.

I think we matchup well with Baltimore. We have the corners to pack the box so our safeties can stop their run game and we have the greatest player of all-time on offense.

I’m ready

Lamar doesn't scare me like Josh.

He's not throwing a seed 40 yards down the field into a breadbox.

Josh terrifies me. And you could tell from the gameplan the Chiefs respect him a lot more than they've ever respected Lamar.

Yip

There is a reason Mahomes rarely gets sacked. He's one of the quickest QBs to ever play in the National Football League. I didn't say fastest, I said quickest.

100%. I hear there defense is good. But I think we got this. We're hitting our stride at the right time

I’ve seen some folks floating that “it’s house money” now for KC, or that if they lose no biggie Baltimore is too good to care

Guys, if you think the Chiefs are going to lose and predict such, that’s perfectly acceptable. But for the love of God, stay the **** out of here with this “house money” bullshit. No year with Mahomes is wasted or taken for granted. We are in this position all the sudden because of their championship DNA. And damn it, we aren’t throwing in the towel right now like a bunch of pussies just because some fans seem scared to get hurt.

Luckily the team isn’t thinking that way whatsoever, we can rest assured they believe they are repeating as world champs.

We’re 2 ****ing wins away from a dynasty!!!!

Wake up people!!

3 cone and 10 yard time like a RB

What. How many first round picks has Baltimore invested in their receivers?

You have flowers, Bateman, obj, agholor ,duvernet
You have likely, Andrews
Dalvin cook is their new third string running back.
I don't think I would take the bills weapons over the Ravens out of hand.

I think the guys have gained some fire by going on the road as underdogs now. Not having home field may have been just what this team needed to get their ass on fire and ready to roll.

Very similar 20 yard shuttle to prime age Russell Wilson, who was pretty incredible at avoiding pass rushers. But Mahomes is also better at getting rid of the ball, whereas Russell would hold it forever and eventually get himself into more sacks than he should with such great scrambling ability.

He went through that stretch again this year where he would drift back in that same scenario instead of stepping up. His pocket presence is so much better the last 3-4 games.

BINGO !!!

You have played the game my friend.;)

**** Yea, Was it over when the German's invade Pearl Harbor?

It's not about throwing in the towel and obviously not related to the players mindset at all... and IMO, not about getting hurt, but simply about expectations as a fan.

The simple truth is they aren't winning the SB 100% of the time and repeating is incredibly difficult... losing this weekend doesn't mean anything in the grand scheme of things, I guess is the point.

We aren't left with "why the **** can't they beat the Bengals" (had they lost last year) or "shit, they've hosted 5 AFCCGs and lost 3 of them".

And at the very least, it just means they aren't the clear favorite this year, which is going to happen sometimes. If they had been scoring 30ppg all year with this defense, we'd all be expecting another SB, because how the hell could we not... well, they aren't so I'm not... that's really it for me.
