When I think of physical teams, 3 always come to mind: Chicago Bears, Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens.
Several other's like the Seahawks are usually right behind those 3. |

Great question. It reminds me of other "old"-isms, like "act like you've been there before" and "simply hand the ball to the ref" and "stop celebrating every play when you're getting your ass kicked." Those are great ideas in theory, until you're down 24-0 and Travis Kelce's celebration of a first-down catch appears to ignite the crowd AND the offense. They make sense until you're down 10-0 and your D starts laying the wood and letting the offense know about it.

Physically is usually referring to teams that can line up one versus one and beat you, man on man. They don't need to scheme to dominate you.
Basically the opposite of what the Chiefs have been doing since 1999 (that's as far back as I can go...). They haven't had the horses, on either side of the ball but primarily on defense, so they've tried to outsmart teams to cover roster deficiencies. The 2019 Chiefs are kind of unique in that they're a heavy scheme team that can/will also physically dominate you on both sides of the ball. It's probably something we're only going to see once. Mahomes on a rookie deal is the only way we could have ever built a roster this loaded on both sides of the ball. |

We are definitely a finesse team. And who gives a shit. We are historically effective.

See Titans game where people got blown up repeatedly, including the QB.
You're gonna pay when you get the ball. |

Its BS. Chiefs were the physical Sunday. But nobody is talking about that.
