Should be a win. We are better than they are for sure. Every week you must focus and play hard and I think we will.

NFL top defensive line rankings at mid season
1. 49ers
2. Bills
3 Titans
4. Chargers
6. Jaguars

The Chiefs have faced the 4 best offensive lines in their first 8 games. The Jags are number 6. After week 10, they will have played 6 out of 10 games against top 6 defensive lines. It's amazing that they have the number one offense yards and scoring against that schedule. And, not surprising, they have struggled to run the ball.

I hadn't thought about the Jacobs comparison. Etienne is more of a speed threat and not as physical/good at breaking tackles, to me.

He's a real threat, though.

Lawrence seems to struggle when he has to go off-script. He has turned it over in the red zone a lot. That seems like a bad matchup against a Steve Spagnuolo defense...

Do you mean defensive lines?

If Fortson is back we should be 100% for this game.

I think Saunders and Hardman will make it.

He was a full participant in practice. I imagine he plays.

Not sure what's wrong with Mecole - it says he has a abdominal injury but not specially if it's a muscle strain or what.

Saunders was excused for non-football related personal reasons. I would imagine he'll be good to go provided those reasons don't linger and result in him missing more practice.

We have this uncanny knack of playing down to our competition. We should blow them out and be able to rest some guys in the 4th quarter. That said, Chiefs 27-jags 24

Yeah, when I used Jacobs as an example, I was mostly talking about his physical stature as a bigger back (he's not small, but he's not Derrick Henry either), he has good speed, but not a burner, and he can break some tackles. He can catch out of the backfield, but he's not CMC.

Which is kinda like what I said in an earlier post

Except Etienne can be slowed down and contained with a pretty solid hit at the first of the game. If that happens then you get him looking around instead of just hitting the hole.

Lawrence has a tendency to get in his own head. If he misses receivers at the beginning of the game he tends to stay wild.

His running is good but Gay and Bolton could counter that issue.

Yeah, after reading your post I went and checked out a couple JAX highlight reels to get familiar a little bit. Then my buddy Scho asked "what should we look for out of JAX," or something to that effect, so I was just replying to him. Wasn't trying to steal your thunder or whatever.:)

The only real chance JAX has is if KC just shits the bed for most of the game. They can't go toe-to-toe with the Chiefs if KC is playing to their average. They have to hope the Chiefs play a terrible game from beginning to end. I don't see that happening, but of course, AGS.

I was trying to save your reputation.....Lord knows you don't want to be agreeing with me in any manner. :LOL:

That's how people get moved to the C-Listers roll
