Ravens lost Tavon Young for the season today. His replacements are a big drop in talent. Advantage Mahomes.

Unless Spags realize that Ben Niemann is not the answer, I most certainly would not want Niemann spying against Lamar Jackson. That won't end well. I also am hopeful that Clark is fine. I know it said illness, I just hope it isn't that same illness that made him lost weight during the beginning of the 2019 season (on top of that neck injury, if I recall). |

Be great to get Pennel back, but I never thought I’d miss Ragland - the Chiefs linebackers are complete ass. Missed tackles, blitzing right into bodies, bad pursuit angles - atrocious. That heavy run offense in Baltimore will be a handful unless the D line can keep the second level relatively clean.
Chris Jones was a huge disappointment today. He did not give a shit on most running downs, and was turning his back to O-linemen and easily getting washed. He got a couple pressures but then ends up taking a stupid penalty that luckily was not terribly costly. This guy needs to be an every down player because he sure as hell is paid like one. I’m pretty sure he’s going to get called out by Daley and Spags. Frank Clark sick? I guess it can happen, but it would be nice if this guy could get right for an entire campaign. Thornhill is nowhere near game shape yet, and Sorenson has struggled tackling. The Chiefs are going to need a Herculean effort to come out of Baltimore with a win next week. Take the W and run. Hopefully the Chiefs get some bodies back from the injury list this week. |

We've had Baltimore's number for years. I don't see that changing this year.

The story today was more about the offense than the defense. Next week will be the same story.
If the offense plays well, we win. |

Maybe they’re planning to use Gay more against Baltimore’s personnel?
They can’t expect to contain Baltimore with the lack of athleticism currently at LB. |

This will be the most hyped Chiefs regular season game since probably the Rams two years ago.

I just don’t see Mahomes shitting the bed in this situation on Monday Night Football against a pretty average defense.
Let’s see if that Baltimore offense can keep up with what we’re about to do. Andy knows how important this game is, especially with the new playoff format. |

I don’t see another AFC team that is really going to challenge for it. Maybe the Patriots? Maybe the Steelers? Those both feel like stretches right though. |

Entering the game as 3 point dogs. Disrespectful.
