What are Lamar and Tannehill then?

Mahomes is Jordan

Watson is Starks

My thought on the 2019-2020 Texans.
Good team. Has plenty of talent. Under coached
Not likely to beat a team with just as much talent if not more. Twice in one year. On the road no less.

Russell Westbrook and Danilo Gallinari

The best was the sign that read “Houston you are go for take off” ummm I’m pretty sure that’s not how it worked. lol.

That Galinari comparison was spot on!!

chiefs are the only team left that were in the divisional last season

pretty crazy

NFL = Not For Long

Maybe this year being a great example of that one.

Also shows the importance of having a young franchise quarterback.

Dak=sucks
Goff=sucks
Brees=old
Foles=sucks
Brady=old
Rivers=old
Luck=retired

Mahomes=god

We’re set for quite awhile.

Dak was pretty good this year. Seems like their defense took a big step backwards and that killed them from reaching their potential.

Goff sure had a major drop-off. Looks like they should have listened to all those writers who said McVay should draft a new QB and start over instead of paying Jared $34M per year and screwing their franchise for the next 5 years.

How the hell not know this?

Shut up bitch

Well Mr. DRM, your boy finally has a good d to back him up.

Let's see what happens.

I feel better now.

Thanks guys.

Did you cum?

On Billays tiitays

Hopkins was kind of a disappointment this year. He had way too many fart games to be considered even a top 5 WR in the NFL after the monster years he had the previous two seasons. Maybe he'll bounce back next year, but for this now? For some reason Watson wasn't throwing to him as much.

Kelce has more receiving yards then Hopkins

The media is going to fixate on the fact that the Texans beat us earlier in the season while largely ignoring the long list of things that are going to be different this time. Which... fine, they need to fill time, they need a clean narrative, whatever. But the quality disparity between these two teams is significant and will reveal itself the same way it did against the Colts last year after an entire week of the media hyping a potential upset.

Whenever I talk to opposing fans I remind them we have about a 21 year or maybe 20 year window. You can see their soul fill up with jealousy. It really is a great sight to see.

And that’s probably for the best. With the way everyone is connected to social media, it’s pretty much impossible for our guys not to hear what the “experts” are saying. There’s pretty much no way that our players will look past this game. They should be extra motivated to avenge that loss.

I think KC already has plenty of motivation to get payback, but I am in favor of the media reminding the KC players of that earlier game. It will keep the players focused.

The previous game against them was very weird indeed. They had the ball for 40 FECKING MINUTES, got a fumble recovery near the redzone, didn't face Jones or Fisher and Pat re-injured his ankle and they only won by one score?????? Oh, and that's not even mentioning the refs fecking up that call on Kelce when caused the Mahomes interception.

There is a little fear because Watson can be very good when he's on his game but even against the Bills he was totally shut down for the whole of the first half and then was forced to run for a TD out of desperation and that changed everything. Defensively I see holes which Pat could take full advantage of. They have Conley at corner who got torn to pieces when he was with the Raiders and we played them earlier in the season. They also have a back-up safety playing after losing Teshaun Gipson.

As for the Chiefs...just hoping Andy has a ton of stuff dialled up and ready to go....gonna also be watching young Watts closely. I really hope the kid can grab his chance and play like the stud we all thought he could be last season. One thing for sure is we CANNOT let Hyde run all over our field and we've got to make them one dimensional. If it turns into a shootout then fair enough..just don't allow them to keep the ball for ridiculous amounts of time this time.

And lastly...saw some talking heads talking about how the Bills game plan was to force Watson to run to his left because the word around the league is he can't throw moving to his left!!!.. so Spags will most certainly be trying to put that to the test.

What key injuries and players banged up for the Texans

The Chiefs were shorthanded with injuries and the defense was a cluster**** that yielded 40 minutes time of possession to Carlos ****ing Hyde for Houston to eke out a victory late.

Yeah, I like our chances.

I also think Reid has a lot of plays he's been saving for the playoffs.

As much as Clay is being a pussy, he is right that the Texans are probably the 2nd best offense left in the AFC for a shootout after us, especially in the passing game.

Hopkins, Stills, Fuller. Duke Johnson is a nice receiving back too.

Yes it does suck that Thornhill is out, but we do have Fuller, who is so much better with things in front of him as a safety. I think Spags will roll almost exclusively with cover 2 and cover 2 looks. HB will be up front in his element and we’ll likely have a spy on Watson like the Bills did.

The number 1 priority has to be stopping the run and getting them in long distance situations. If we do that, I’m very confident that Spags will have an entire chapter of blitz packages set up to confuse Watson.

After last year's AFCCG that we were convinced that we'd beat NE, I have a very bad feeling about this game.

I think we're getting way too over confident about a win.

I wouldn’t call it overconfidence. I think people are looking at what all we were missing in the first game. This will be the third game this season that Pat isn’t on the injury report so keep that in mind too.

Texans have only scored 30 or above twice this season whilst we have scored 30 plus seven times and this was without Pat for two and a half games. It also wasn't that long ago when they got destroyed at home by the Donks with a rookie qb.

Shut up bitch...this team is about to unleash holy hell.

Chiefs players not taking any flack this week. Love seeing it!

Don't forget that we were getting ready to go up 17-0 when Mahomes threw an interception because Kelce was tackled to the ground. PI was called, accepted, marked off, ready to snap...then a buzz from New York negated it all.

We should win this game by double digits. We are better in every possible aspect. But would not be surprised at all if it's just under the spread.

So I have a friend from college - we'll call him Dan, because that's his name - who is from St. Louis and was a big (some might have said obnoxious) Rams in college, and is also a huge Cardinals fan/homer. Dan lives in Columbia now and is not handling the Patrick Mahomes Chiefs era very well (funny how quickly he has gotten tired of hearing how good Mahomes is and how good Chiefs fans, etc.). Anyway, Dan attempts to troll me regarding the Chiefs/Mahomes from time to time and has popped up doing it again this week.

He started up a bit yesterday/today about the matchup with the Texans. So I did some statistical digging and was SHOCKED at how bad the matchup starts to look for Houston once you do that.

First, on defense... you're talking about a bottom five pass defense, that doesn't sack the passer (bottom 5 in that, too), that was dead last in the NFL in red zone percentage defense (5 percent worse than the next worst team and a whopping 27 percent worse than the median), that also was rough against the run (gave up the same YPC as the Chiefs).

Then you look at the offense, their bread and butter... and it's really just OK (probably why they were outscored on the year despite finishing 10-6). Watson holds the ball a lot, and the Texans were 30th in sack percentage as a result. Their passing offense is slightly above-average but not by much. They run the ball slightly better than they pass it, compared to the league, but are not an elite rushing team, either.

When you stack it up:
Chiefs passing defense vs. Houston passing defense: Advantage KC
Chiefs rushing offense vs. Houston rushing defense: Advantage KC
Houston passing offense vs. Chiefs passing defense: Advantage KC
Houston rushing offense vs. Chiefs rushing defense: Advantage Houston
Special teams returns: Advantage KC
Special teams kicking: Big advantage KC

It smells like an ass kicking in the making, idc what anyone wants to say about the past and all that.

I’m expecting something like Chiefs 34 - Texans 17

The only thing that gives me a bit of a pause considering the Texans rushing the passer is that they were without Watt for most of the season. That's a pretty big deal.

I just don't know about an ass kicking. The playoffs usually don't work that way.

See AFC divisional round games from just last year...

I can't believe what a little bitch I was about Will Fuller.

Even if he plays we're going to butt**** this team.

Mahomes is unleashing the dragon this week.

For sure and maybe it works that way again.

But everyone talks about the Chiefs having the Ravens number because they beat them earlier in the year, yet the Texans game doesn't matter. I get it, chiefs had guys hurt etc.

But I am not quite to the point yet where I am a "confident chiefs playoff fan". Not yet.

Go away Cheatriot scum

Watson didn’t play that well against us. It was mostly Carlos Hyde who beat us.

He ran all over us, but keep the circumstances in mind:

No Pennel
No Jones
No Hitchens
No Ragland
Saunders first game as a pro
No Suggs
Clark was still playing injured

Yikes. That was actually the game that got Darron Lee benched. He was horrific. Spags has barely played him in limited action since.

I’m not over confident about the game. Anything can happen....especially in the playoffs.

But I’m also not going to sit here and be doom and gloom. Why?

1. I’ve come to the realization that’s it just less ****ing enjoyable to worry about games all week long. It doesn’t benefit me in any way.

2. We are a better team than the Texans. We just are. Does that mean we’re guaranteed a win? No. But we damn sure have a better chance at winning than we do losing.

I’ll be a nervous wreck through the entire game like I always am. And if we somehow lose....then I’ll just take a break from CP because this place becomes unbearable after a loss.

1/2 the season. They weren't special rushing the passer with him and only managed 1 sack against KC with him to boot.

And that was WITH Cam Erving playing LT. Mahomes is a wizard at avoiding sacks, but this is not a defense that has been really effective pressuring the quarterback.

Watt is also returning early from a torn pec and has it braced. He's nowhere close to 100 percent and there's a decent probability he was healthier last week than he will be this week.

When you're less than 100 percent healed and return early, you're usually best the first time back, then have diminishing returns from there due to the injury getting worse again until you can fully rest it.

They had him when we played the first time and we didn’t have Fisher for that game either. It was still only a 7 point game with the Chiefs making a shit load of mistakes to keep the Texans in the game.

We were missing a lot more than they were in that first matchup.

DACARYS!

Yeah I’ve got other shit to worry about I’ll enjoy once Sunday hits

Reid with 2 weeks vs. O'Brien on the road. This is the biggest factor...Chiefs lost the last one. I think they will be ready to play.

JJ Watt doesn't get a rookie OL this week with crowd noise...and an emotional return.

Chiefs have Watkins for this game....and a healthy Mahomes/Hill.

Watson is an amazing player...he single-highhandedly willed them to win last weekend. That last play might the best of the year. Definitely a "charmed" player. He's a good dude that gave his first game check to cafeteria workers. I cant hate him...but Mahomes is the better QB.

Chiefs would have to have a really bad game...or strange officiating/turnovers in key moments to lose. Hyde isn't going to run wild again...

The score was 17-3 and the Chiefs were on the Texans 30 yard line with no signs of slowing down when Pat Mahomes threw an interception on what he thought was a free play because of the PI that should've been called on Kelce.

That interception, and the strip/sack before the half are what lost that game for the Chiefs.

Up until those two obscure plays the Chiefs looked like they were going to blow out the Texans.

Glad you back on the Bus..

He has 3 TDs all year.

He's Sammy Watkins.

o:-)

Reasons that KC lost to the Texans:

1) Mauled by Carlos Hyde and the run game.

2) Critical fumble by Mahomes that led to a quick Houston score and turned the game.

3) Hobbled Mahomes in the 2nd half and depleted roster.

4) Officiating agenda to keep the game close in the first half.

Can't guarantee that there won't be zebra manipulation, but the other problems won't be present this time.

I think that game can effectively be thrown out, particularly given that we have an entirely different D-line than the one that played that day.

Houston's D will be the worst we've faced in a long time. Possibly all year. Even if they're moving the ball, we should be able to outscore them. But barring turnovers, I see a double digit win.

Also, note that it took ALL FOUR of those reasons for the Chiefs to lose by 7. Maybe 1 or 2 of them happen again...but all 4? Unlikely.

This should go like the 2016 wild card game,.except that it's here, they were a better team then, and we're a much better team now.

Fuller's prosthetic leg/groin will immediately shatter to pieces on the field if he does actually play.

2 of our losses were just a bunch of random weird shit happening in one game. Houston and Tennessee.

One loss to the Packers was without Mahomes.

The Colts loss was just a legitimate beating by the other team.

All week 1.

Welcome back home.

And even the Colts game was without Tyreek and Sammy.

Colts game also had a Mahomes ankle problem in 2nd quarter. Before that point, it seemed like they had a pretty good chance to win.

Chiefs were called fora shit-ton of penalties. 11-125. That is the reason they lost...KC also had 36 yards rushing vs. 180 for Indy.

We also didn’t have Tyreek or Watkins. Kelce dropped a bunch of passes. McCoy fumbled away a scoring opportunity. Mahomes was gimpy. Jones left injured. Clark wasn’t right yet.

That one had a bunch of flukey shit too.

Yeah...that was inside the 10 yard line.

Worst game of the season...the refs kept killing any momentum they had.

Everyone good to go for practice according to Andy.

We’re going to wreck these mother****ers

Fully ****ing healthy. Let’s go.

Knowing that, I will be interested to see the starting O line.

They will bend the knee.

I know who I would start at LG.

I know who I wouldn’t start at LG

Fluky plays happen to each team in every game.

The Texans are looking back saying they should have won by 20 if not for Hyde’s butt fumble, missed kicks, the ball going thru the DBs hands on Hills phenomenal catch, etc.

KC is the better team on paper, but sometimes teams just matchup in a way that leads to a closer game. Don’t leave the game to the refs, play aggressive D and don’t let up on offense.

If the Texans couldn’t beat the Bills in regular time facing a half-wit at QB, there is no excuse for a healthy KC not to roll

If you don't count all the major contributors on IR (Thornhill, Okafor, Ogbah, etc). :)

We have Suggs now, so that helps with the loss of Okafor and Ogbah.

Thornhill is the only loss that really hurts.

Confirmed...

Their gameplan is going to revolve around get up fast and stay up throughout the game. The Defense is going to have to come out and set the tone for the game; get some stops early on and hopefully our offense capitalizes, if we keep up the pressure we should get the W.

That's going to be true pretty much for all of our Super Bowl run, Defense needs to dictate the flow of the game and let the offense do what it does best. I want Andy to be ruthless, I don't care if it's Jon Harbaugh or Pete Carroll on the other sideline, put your foot on the gas and don't let up!

We avoided Fouts! Amazing

This may be naive, but I'm holding out hope that we're about to see a return of the early 2018 offense, with lots of trickery and pre-snap motion. Crazy new play designs. I think Andy's about to pull out all the stops.

I want to see us come out and bludgeon teams in the first quarter like we routinely saw last year.

Andy,

Don’t hold anything back. You need to destroy every remaining team. Don’t take your foot off the gas. Go get that ****ing ring you deserve. And most of, let Pat be Pat.

Sincerely,

Starved Chiefs fans.
