The more I think about the performance, the more I think it was fine. It didn't suck by any means, I think he just had a lot of symbolism that may have gone over people's heads.To each their own. I had to listen to some bone thugs to get that garbage out of my head
Falcons.They have approximately a quarter of the alphabet and their letter jacket features a different letter?
Pretty well thought out post at 11:30 at night after a brutal beat down. I like the Chiefs chances as well, but they'll have some HUGE holes to fill.The O line was injured and had to have different combos all year. I think there are 2 guys that need to be replaced. Humphrey and Thuney were 1st team All-Pro. 2 out of 5 spots in the entire NFL are to Chiefs so no need to redo the whole thing. I moderately think Smith can stay but the other two have to go.
Mahomes had a bad night. No doubting that. He didn't have a great season. I don't think he's lost anything just needs to actually get comfortable with reliable targets who aren't hurt.
Kelce still cares but tonight could be his last night anyway. Noah Grey was highly productive for us this year and I think we will get a guy to replace Travis. His production hasn't been amazing in years. We need someone who will be a red zone target and a great blocker.
The defense killed themselves.
1st TD was a first aided by penalty on 3rd down (7)
2nd TD was a pick 6 (14)
3rd TD was Iowa like with a sweet pick inside the 10 (21)
2nd FG was given up after what would have been 3rd and 26 foul (24)
3rd FG came off of us failing to get a 1st on our own side of the field (27)
Last TD was a bomb that Watson never bumped Smith but everyone sold run (which is crazy because he isn't fast) (34)
Plus 2 more FGs.
Barkley did NOTHING tonight. I was shocked how well we did against the run.
Here's why I don't think it is over:
I'm not going to count out Pat. He still makes a ton happen.
The best players on defense will be back. (Minus Jones... maybe. I would bet on him being a Chief)
The WR room will be figured out... finally. It was a mix and match game all season to find WRs who could walk. It was finally good at the very end but even then... who is on the field when? At what spot?
Pacheco will actually be healthy again and who knows what we do with Kareem Hunt. He costs nothing.
Continuing... the division had 3 teams in the playoffs and the last is still the Raiders. The Chiefs only lost to the Broncos playing 0 starters and the Bills on the road.
The top threats are the Bills (who have a much bigger mess in their secondary with about no depth that nobody wants to talk about) and the Ravens (who shockingly also have problems on defense AND can Lamar win in crunch time of playoff games?)
Bengals have struggled and didn't make the playoffs with Burrow's best year.
Steelers have no offense and still not sure what they will do.
Broncos are still growing on offense but lost some of their edge on defense.
Chargers are us with even more inconsistencies and less winning.
Texans we beat twice.
Miami beats themselves and have huge questions with Tua and Tyreek is a nut.
Plus, we have Andy Reid and only lost 3 games all year while the world thought we played bad in all but 4 games. Which is probably pretty accurate. So if we played THAT BAD and still won all but 3? I'll roll the dice with KC.
Super Bowls are crazy hard to get to. I wish that while we can and should acknowledge the Eagles greatness tonight, the Chiefs can't be looked over by how huge it is to go to 3 in a row or even 7 straight AFC title games.

Trey Smith is likely gone ($$) as is Justin Reid. They need 2 OT's, is DJ Humphries one of those?
Chiefs only have 2 WR, one of whom is injured and may not even be ready come opening day. DHop is likely gone ($$), I doubt Hollywood sticks.
Kelce yards are down the last 2 years, as are TD's, but he still caught 180 passes. He is still viable in the offense.
RB room needs to be addressed. I doubt Hunt is back or Perrine, and the FA guy is not an answer. IP needs to get back to his old self, he didn't look like himself after he returned, maybe he came back to soon?
I think the defense will still be okay even if they lose Reid and Bolton.
No football for 7 mos sucks. There is the draft to look forward to I guess.
He's the only player to score a TD in the Super Bowl on their birthday.
Congrats on being the fourth.
Wonder what number cooper was for white cornerbacks to have a pick six in the Super Bowl.
Probably the first white cornerback to do so on his birthday.
Humphries I have no idea what his contract situation is, maybe sign him to a 1 yr reclamation contract and see if he pans out? I also read that Bolton is likely gone, he's considered below average for a LBer making $10mm.Thanks for the comments. I try to stay reasonable even after loses. Also boo City High.
I have been wondering about Pacheco coming back too soon for awhile. I also think Hunt and Perine are gone. I am fine keeping Steele as a 3rd back and st guy. He is tough.
Humphries I didn't mention before because I just have no idea of his health status. If he is released that would tell me all I need to know. He could have been a massive piece to help us. Smith will cost too much, agreed there. I also think Smith is only above average in my opinion. Will probably get picked up for lots of money by a team like the Bears.
I don't think we lose Bolton but I think Reid will be gone and that sucks. Love both of those guys. Getting Jones resigned again is important.
Good to see espn was all over that non race stat.He's the only player to score a TD in the Super Bowl on their birthday.
This is what winners do. Just enjoy it.
Dan Bongino is blacker than Patrick Mahomes. Just sayin’.
As an old white guy I find this halftime show boring AF.
Was Caitlin there? It was kind of funny that Taylor Swift got booed. 😉How about Caitlin?
You mean…the Redskins. 😉Philadelphia, run up the score like you did on the Commanders
I haven’t heard anyone, even young people, saying they liked the halftime show. 🤮I've been shocked that all of the old white people in my Facebook feed are not enjoying it.
We like our rap straight gangsta homieI've been shocked that all of the old white people in my Facebook feed are not enjoying it.
How do you know that? Hope it’s not true.That doesn't make much sense. Hurts & Philadelphia is way more left leaning than Mahomes, Butker & Kansas City.
However, the o-line is suspect.How is it over?
The Chiefs just went to 3 Super Bowls in a row and most of our guys are still young.
