[Mr. Flopnuts]

You're a bunch of superstitious children. Enjoy the Lamar Hunt trophy game from Arrowhead Stadium 2 weeks from today. Their Luck ran out. Our time is now.

Its like he spouts off bullshit and is completely clueless or just likes being a fear monger because KC fans like to play the poor me card.

These talking heads aren't paid to do legitimate research and analysis on the games. They're paid to skim the surface, find some easy talking points and narratives, and hammer them to death.

If you like to subject yourself to cruel and unusual punishment and watched First Take or Undisputed today, you heard the exact same narrative. Yet the facts simply don't support it.

Another thing to consider is that it's simply not going to get anybody's attention anymore if you continue to heap more praise on Mahomes. People are acutely aware of his greatness by now. The spicier narrative is that Indy is on a roll, Luck is coming to KC and the Chiefs aren't built to stop him.

I won't expect we'll have to hear anymore of that in about 5 days time.

Id understand if they wanted to suck Lucks nuts, but they were talking about how good their running game was. Also it's KC media, I expect a bit of homerism and not doom and gloom from 95% of the people on it.

people will always talk about Brady. He may be the GOAT. But, no one stops Father Time. His era is over. The Mahomes era begins.

Well to be perfectly fair to them, we've made every running back we've gone up against this season look like Barry Sanders.

My blood is at a simmer. I’m going to kick a ****ing cat before kickoff.

The curse ends as we finally flush this blue turd.

I don't know that the Colts were built to beat us, but their running attack has been pretty good lately. It should probably one of our bigger concerns.

Remember Marlon Mack was hurt the first couple months of the season. He came back in mid-October and since then their running numbers have been much better. Plus more importantly it's looked really good the last couple weeks. They took it to the Texans. You'd have to think they are going to try to do the same thing, use their line and Mack to control the game. It is easily the best way to neutralize Mahomes. We've allowed 164 yards a game rushing since the bye week.

Thats just not true about the Colts rushing attack being better recently.

Through the first 8 games the Colts rushing yards

1- 75
2- 104
3- 68
4- 41
5- 84
6- 127
7- 220
8- 222

Second half of the season

9- 81
10- 102
11- 118
12- 41
13- 50
14- 178
15- 49
16- 158

1st half - 118 ypg
2nd half - 97 ypg


Marlon Mack averaged 76 ypg and only had 4 games with 100 or more yards rushing. It seems people are acting like this one good game is what he did all year and thats just not true.

The more I see of this...the more I convinced that the talking heads primary job is to drive betting lines.

You'll see them flip the next week like they never said anything....that's the beauty of owning your own network.

Yep. He will just talk about how we will lose the next one.

[Danguardace]

Chiefs getting a lot of disrespect, people acting like the Colts are the '72 Dolphins for some reason. What is their signature road win?

[BandwagonChiefsFan]

who cares what media says. if watkins is fully healthy, we'll blow out our next 3 opponents. remember mahomes already blew out rivers, roethlisberger (refs helped him get back in game) and brady (second half). All we need is more talent in offseason via draft, trade (i'm hoping we get antonio brown) and free agency.
