That’s rather funny.

Yeah, I noticed that as well. Not exactly the best analysis possible.
Here's my gut prediction, without doing a ton of film review/analysis:
In the first drive, CLE is going to run amok, and they'll march down the field and score. Maybe even the second CLE drive.
But after that, the Chiefs' defense is going to pull off a "miracle," and put the brakes on CLE's run game. Somewhere in the middle of the 2nd quarter.
They'll put CLE into 3rd and 6+, and force Baker to throw for first downs. And at first, he'll convert a few. Call it 2-4.
But by the 3rd quarter, the tide will turn, and Baker will be throwing the ball away more than he tries to actually complete a pass for a conversion. Because, in spite of not pile-driving Baker into the ground, our DL will be moving him around and even getting some hits on him. That will last at least three drives, most if not all of which will end in punts for CLE.
Which is where Andy will drive in the stake and we'll be up a couple TDs. Maybe three. Then KC will be up by 17, and for all intents and purposes, the game will be over. CLE will try to mount a comeback, but their rushing attack will largely be eliminated, and Baker just isn't going to be good enough to beat our defense. probably somewhere in these 3 drives Spags will get really creative with his blitz packages, and Sneed/DD/Niemann will get a sack, that will kill a critical CLE drive.
And then it will be as it always is, and we'll be sending blitzers from every angle, or bailing out, and Clark will find a way to finally get his 'coverage' sack to end the game.
Then the Clark haters will all pile into the "Frank Clark Sux" thread and complain that his game-winning sack was just a coverage sack and shouldn't be counted.
But we'll be on to BUF by then, and we'll be complaining about BUF instead.
