The media at large doesn't actually know how good our team is outside of the big names (Mahomes, Kelce, Jones, Clark) and thats why we're getting discredited. I think the talking points about Mahomes legacy or his ankle are too alluring. It turns it into this Mahomes vs the Eagles storyline rather than people realizing "Hey, that Chiefs defense really seems to be turning it up in the postseason. And they have been for the last 4 years. Thats strange! Thats not what the statsheet is telling me."
Seriously, has any media member even mentioned L'Jarius Sneed, Nick Bolton, and Willie Gay by name outside of the injury report?
