The chiefs won't get trucked but they lose. Probably go up by 10 in the first quarter, then turnover the ball in the second. Lose the lead in the second half and chase points while the defense gets walked on. Lose by three or four late. Mahomes and offense will put up big numbers again but won't close it out late. This is just who they are now.

Seems we get flagged way more with Mahomes, especially when we are about to start rolling fools. You can't convince me that some of these games aren't influenced...

Chargers players may not be thrilled about Colorado trip

Chargers coach Anthony Lynn brought his team to Colorado this week, to prepare for the elevation Monday night in Mexico City.

And his players may not be thrilled about the week away from home.

Via Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times, running back Austin Ekeler said a number of players would have preferred to stay in California, rather than spending the week working out at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs.

Wide receiver Keenan Allen didn’t offer specifics of what he was talking about, but tweeted: “I hate everything about this.” (And a wife of a teammate concurred.)

Defensive end Joey Bosa was tepid in his endorsement.

“You notice a difference out there a little bit with breathing,” Bosa said. “I don’t know if a few practices is enough to get acclimated to it. But, we’re here. We’ll make the most of it.”

When he was asked a follow-up question, Bosa said: “I don’t really want to talk about this. I don’t want to say anything stupid.”

The Chargers stayed in Ohio last year after playing the Browns, before flying to London the following week. Considering they won 10 of 11 games including that stretch, the reaction was much different. Now 4-6, there doesn’t appear to be as much enthusiasm about the trip.

Next you will tell me Clark is going up against a rookie tackle playing in his first game. None of this matters. What matters is the chargers have probably all ready rushed for 80 yards on the chiefs _efense and the game has even started.

They most definitely are. Refs have an agenda to keep certain games from getting out of hand. There's absolutely no doubt about it.

And it's cost the Chiefs 2 or 3 games this year, a few last year, and damn near cost them in Pittsburgh, in a game that should've been a laugher.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

We were fisting Houston till they got involved...yet against Minny and Green Bay we largely hung around because they let things go. It's a ****ing joke and just so obvious.

10-1 against these fools. About to free up Gadzooks Sunday’s after this game.

Except the refs handed the Chargers their last primetime matchup...the NFL actually used that specific play as an example of the new PI rule...the rule that they never intended to enforce.

Using that play is SO on par for the Chiefs franchise and how they are treated by the league...only Detroit is habitually treated worse.

Chiefs are 2-7 in primetime/national games under Mahomes. NFL was kind enough to let them beat the Bengals..

Dont be surprised when the Raiders and KC are tied in the division when they meet each other...remember when the NFL gave them 3 free plays after time expired? I do....classic Chiefs snuff-job.

I tried to tell everyone to watch out for the Raiders this year...new stadium, new city.

What on Earth are you talking about?

The Bengals have the worst record in PT games maybe in NFL history. In fact, the Bengals are historically bad playing any games that aren't in the morning.

Second, the NFL didn't hand the Chiefs a victory last year against the Bengals; we torched them 45-10. It was never in doubt from about 5 minutes into the 2nd quarter. We were up 24-7 by the end of the first half. The Bengals kicked a FG for their only other points of the game in the third, while the Chiefs went on to score another 21 points.


You need to put the pipe down.

[T-post Tom]

Rivers looked like ass vs. the faiders last week. Gordon ran for over 100 yds. I expect the dolts to try and run it down the Chiefs' throats. My money is on the Chiefs. I was hoping to leverage a biz trip into a chance to attend the game. Isn't happening. Expecting plenty of Chiefs' red. Not so sure about dolt fan.

Football Outsiders DVOA rankings think the Chargers suck.

21st ranked against the pass, 26th ranked against the run, 23rd ranked running attack.

Likely this is because their total rankings are a sham - they are 22nd in net yards allowed per pass and 15th in yards per carry allowed.

Only thing they got going for them is a 10th ranked passing attack, and they are starting two backup OTs.


We are going to smash this team.

Your schizophrenia is showing again.

This Chiefs team cannot be trusted. They "should" beat a flawed Chargers team, but there have been too many losses to inferior teams lately to say the Chiefs can "smash" anyone....
