Let's talk about the faid
 

This game will be far from a gimme with grandpa Bob running the D.

Not that it matters cuz this team isn't winning shit this year

We might have to score 50 to win

And there are posters on here who think we are beating Oakland like it's a foregone conclusion.

News flash, not the way the Chiefs have been playing.

Can the defense hold them under 40?

I was one of them but now I don't care one way or anther. It doesn't matter where we play in the playoffs, it's one and done anyway.

Don’t even care. Just holding off the inevitable playoff one and done.

Unreal it wasn’t addressed.

We will lose

Cheap shots all around. We will lose someone in this game for the playoffs, due to this team not interested in locking home field up. Let’s hope it’s not Mahomes, but knowing the chiefs, it will be.

Lose it. Save KC fans some money on playoff tickets. Chiefs can go one and done on the road.

This defense is a complete embarrassment.

Brett Veach is astoundingly bad at his job for the fact that he couldn't find one or two players that have positively impacted the defense. Every single person he has signed is a complete and utter travesty.

Andy Reid is just giving a giant middle finger to the fans every day that Bob Sutton remains employed.

As for Sutton, he's a joke that is what he is at this point. I'm done putting the blame on him and now shifting it to the people that refuse to put a stop to his weekly clown show.

We should win this game, but with the above in mind, I have no idea what's going to happen.

Who cares? This team could lose in Baltimore or wait a week and lose in Arrowhead. I couldn't care less because we know what they are.

Does it matter?

I mean, we should beat the Faid at home next week, but nothing would surprise me at this point. Carr will probably throw for 400 yards. Hopefully Pat can outscore him.

Doesn’t matter, though, as most have said in this thread. This team is likely one and done with this pathetic D, regardless of where they play at.

Hopefully Reid finally grows a set of balls in the off season, fires his buddy, and the front office makes a serious effort to revamp this defense.

Otherwise, they’re just wasting Mahomes rookie contract.

Yep. Sadly, this defense is just too poor to seriously consider anything other than getting smoked in yet another heartbreaking fashion in whatever round we end up playing.

We couldn't even cover the late-career Jordy Nelson and Jared Cook last time around. I don't want to hear about injuries this week. Get out there and play.

Oakland playing for Nick Bosa they’re not in it to win it

I'm pretty sure Gruden would love nothing more than to knock the Chiefs out of the #1 seed.

Chucky will do his old buddy a solid and lay down for us. No worries

No shit.

1999 Gruden says ‘hold my beer’

x2

They did it once. They held them to 33 the first game by securing the onside kick to keep them from getting to 40.

The defense just got toasted by Tyler Lockett and Doug (I am always hurt) Baldwin. Pathetic.

Chiefs will win, but my outlook won’t change. One and done.

They are good receivers. Let’s not act like those 2 are scrubs.

If KC can’t beat a hyped up Raiders team then we won’t deserve a 1 seed

This team doesn't deserve a #1 seed now, regardless of the outcome vs the Raiders.

The defense has killed ALL excitement for this team. Thanks Reid for bringing back Sutton., when 98% of Chief Nation knew this would happen.

Who can forget Gruden screwing us out of the playoffs 41-38 with nothing to play for on the last week of the season. Celebrated like a maniac and then wished Chiefs fans Merry Xmas.

Game moved to 3:25. Disregard if Q

Reason given by the league for the 3:25 move is to to keep all games competitive regardless of result.

Makes me think if last night's game plan would have been any different if Andy didn't know the result of the Charger's game. If so, **** Andy.

I suppose it would be informative to watch tonights game between the Faid and the Donks, but it's Christmas Eve and I have other things to do. Plus I don't care. So...

Chiefs at Arrowhead last week of the season with everything to play for vs. a Jon Gruden led Raiders team playing out the string... memories of “kickoff specialist” Jon Baker come to mind.

Bunch of Debbie Downers in here. :harumph:

If you didn’t realize how bad our defense was entering this season, you were not paying attention.

I don’t know a single on of you ****ers saying this was a Super Bowl year. Everyone I read said this was a learning year for Mahomes. We fix the defense and in 2019 season we start the Mahomes era run in the playoffs.

Do we want Oakland to win tonight? Possibly last game ever in Oakland. This would be their super bowl. Plus they would ha e a letdown as they surely can't win two in a row.

Or do we want them to lose and further demoralized them?

It's sad this is even a topic

Not much to talk about here. Should beat their ass handily. Mahomes gets 3 TDs, settling in at 51 for the year.

We should win without a doubt but handily? That probably won't happen.

Raiders offense is dreadful on the road. Our defense is better at home

KC should win by 2 scores minimum. I think it’ll be similar to the Chiefs Browns game

Win, lose or draw; it matters not.

We put 40 on these fools in Oakland a few weeks ago and now the #1 seed is on the line at home no less. We may score 60.

If there is any advantage to not winning last night it is this last game has meaning so we should see some Mahomes Magic.

Hopefully, Andy can get his team pumped up to play well considering it is at home and so much is at stake.

It would be great to see Mahomes put up at least 400 yards and 5 TD's to put an exclamation point on his MVP year.

That’s what scares me. Was he really going to experiment with the Ward/Smith secondary if the Chargers has won? That would’ve been pure insanity on a planet far beyond the outer reaches of the Reidtard galaxy.

I know people are down right now but we just lost to a competitive team who rarely loses at home and a Chargers team who is in the playoffs.

The Raiders are hot garbage. Not saying we cant lose to them but if we cant beat those clowns at home with whats at stake this teams is shit.

And I dont think this team is shit.

We still have the best Offense in the NFL. Faders Offense is a mess and Carr is terrible. Sutton should crowd the line to stop the run and dare Carr to throw it. You have to shut down the running game first and Bob doesn't get that.

At least if you are forcing teams to throw it, the clock is stopping after incompletions and they are not controlling the game. Seahawks and Chargers controlled the entire game.

means a lot to me also since I have gblowfish’s tickets.

I expect the Raiders to give the Chiefs their best shot on Sunday. But if this Chiefs team is for real it shouldn’t matter. If they struggle against this Oakland team with the 1 seed on the line than it looks to be just another fraud season. I think this Chiefs teams comes out and stomps the Raiders this Sunday. At least the offense anyways.

I wanna see a statement game here, a blowout... dont let these ****s hang around and make things too close for comfort like last time

Exactly! We need to get some confidence back.

That’s what we should want and yearn for. The reality is that we haven’t had a statement win this season. The closest was probably Pittsburgh but we somehow allowed that to get uncomfortably close. The win last December against the Chargers to take the AFC West was that type of win, but it’s been a year.

I think we’ll rape the Raiders. If we don’t, then we’ll know exactly what to expect in the playoffs.

Although the steelers game got too close, I'm putting most of that on the officials... we got hosed like a $2 hooker that day and still gutted out a win

We hadnt won there since I was in high school, that was a definite statement game

Right on Brother. Rome wasn't built overnight.

This defense couldn't cover Jared from Subway.

Jared Cook out with a concussion

Hope they sit him out for the rest of the season. No need to rush him back

Chiefs might lose this one also. The pressure is real. Fat Andy can’t handle it.

Raiders 24 Chiefs 23

YAS!

LMAO KC has scored 24+ in 20 straight games which is an NFL record and you think Oakland is going to hold them to 23?

ROFLROFL

I actually like this. In the era of “let’s all be buddies because we could possibly be on the same team next year” it’s nice to see some good, old fashioned Chiefs Raiders hatred.

Looks like Watkins will be the only one not playing this weekend.

Nice to see that Fuller and Eric Berry have been FP both days this week.

ROFL

You actually think this shit show of a defense will be any better a year from now?

Yes, for sure. We will have a new DC, some draft picks and free agents added to it.

But mainly, there is no where to go but up...

So you think they are trotting out the same guys again? :shake:

You think it could get worse? Nowhere to go but up.

Link?

Yes. there will be changes. There will be turnover, and it would be hard to actually get worse. As far as the rest of this season, No. They are what they are at this point.

Based off the last 4 games this year......Raiders are much better than their 4 win record indicates. Gruden may or may not be on to something for good things next year but Chiefs will kick their ass this week easily. Raiders will have a major let-down on the road....after an emotional win at home last week......its what they do

this dude is funny. . and obsessed with us

Great stuff from Lefkoe and Simms on the game (apologies if this has already been posted, by the way).

Lefkoe declares that the NFL changed this year. There is the BP (Before Pat) and AP (After Pat) and this is Year Zero in the NFL calendar. The main Chiefs talk starts around 1:04:20 ...

Last "blowout" we had was probably Cleveland. And it was still relatively close until midway through the 3rd quarter.

We will hang 35 on the board. I have such little confidence that this defense can do anything that a 38-35 loss wouldn't surprise me. We are really trending down now. Lost 3 of the last 5 games. The defense has really been horrific in that stretch.

I'm legit concerned. Not for anything other than the way we are headed into the playoffs.

The defense is bad. But they aren’t giving up 30+ to Oakland at home. Forget it.

They SHOULDN'T. That doesn't mean that they won't.

They’re a God awful defense but it’s really, really hard to give up 30 to Oakland at home. Even when they were decent a few years back.

I honestly wish I could believe this but I have ZERO hope Andy will actually be willing to fire Sutton.

I warned of the same before we played the Chargers. But did anyone listen?

Chargers >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dog poop >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Raiders

Wow, but I heard the Arrowhead advantage was a myth?

This defense would have to shut them out to give me any confidence for the playoffs.

If this defense holds them under 21....I'll consider it a win.

At home:

49ers - 27
Jaguars - 14
Benglas - 10
Broncos - 23
Cardinals - 14
Ravens - 24
Chargers - 29
