One, we do not play Zone vs Patriots ever, and this has hurt us at time but we just don’t like doing it because TB will **** you up.
Our Receivers are vastly superior, not up for debate.
O-line I’ll concede to Pats but not a huge gap
Defense again concede to Pats but neither are worth bragging about as overall units.
Special Teams, Chiefs won hands down
Offense, while they are both good Chiefs win by averaging almost 10 more points a game.
That being said, it’s a even matchup. And I’m looking forward to a great game. Home field might be the tipping point.

First off, yes one of my pet peeves is fans that post stuff or say stuff that is not correct because they have a big mouth, failed to check or both.
I think one of the keys to the game will be if our defense can hold off your offense more so than your defense holding off our offense.
I like our offense's chances to move the ball. We have running backs who can run and and catch the ball. And Edelman finds a way to get open. I am guessing that the Pats might run a clock controlling game plan to shorten the number of possessions. If we can execute this, there will be fewer possessions in the game.
It will just come done to if we can stop your offense enough times. And we will have to wait till Sunday to see if we can do this.
Also the crowd. The Pats have been making mental mistakes pretty much all year on the road and some of that is due to the crowd. Also, we did not fare well the last time we played in Arrowhead
In addition, Brady does have a few stadiums where he just not play well, like Miami and Denver. This past season in the Miami loss he had a brain fart and took a sack with no time outs at the end of the first half costing us a chance at a chip shot field goal (which would of given us a 8 point lead at the end before end play) Time will tell if Arrowhead is the same.
I agree with you if this ends up being a close game, the extra benefit you get from the crowd could very well be the tipping balance. A false start here, and sack there cause we are on a silent count, etc.
Hopefully the o line will be able to protect Brady.
As for us and Mahomes, not sure what we have cooked up. We have a few pass rushers but Mahomes is fast. BB might have a plan keep him in the pocket and not necessarily try to sack him.
Should be a fun game.
