1. KC gave up zero sacks to an elite pass rush. That line consisted of Brown Jr. (who Veach traded for, more on that later), Thuney (Veach's big FA signing on the line), Humphrey and Smith (both second year picks).
2. TD #1 was a result of a great play by Mahomes and Kelce because Mahomes had great protection from that young line.
3. TD #2 was a fumble return for TD by our stud 2nd year LB (who along with Creed was a result of Veach's trade for Brown Jr).
4. TD #3 was a TD run by our rookie 7th round RB who was a huge part of that drive.
5. TD #4 was on a pass to our 2nd year WR who was traded for midseason for peanuts.
6. TD #5 was on a pass to our rookie WR and was set up by the WR in TD #4 after having the longest PR in SB history.
What Veach did is stunning and will be hard for any other GM to replicate and moves like Veach has made ensures that this team's window is open for a very long time.

Exactly. We overcame every odds imaginable last season. It’s incredible what Veach, Andy, Spags were able to do last year. All those rookies, new LT, no Hill, lots of new receivers. It’s unbelievable. There’s no better staff in the league IMO. Now we go win another in Arrowhead West next year, and REALLY piss the Faders off!! I just don’t know who is gonna be able to hold us back.
