If I have to hear one more ****ing time that we’re pasting together an offensive line for the Super Bowl.

Everyone in the media is talking about KC's OL injuries, but what about all of Tampa's injuries on defense?
Major players on their D are really banged up, and there is a real risk of them dressing guys who only make it through 1/2 the game before things flare up. Suddenly they could be scrambling to get guys out there. |

Can’t imagine how frustrating it is for DL to sack Patrick. The only QB similar to him in passing and movement is Russell Wilson.
Patrick isn’t as fast in a straight line as Russ, but 3 cone was better which means he’s quicker and can move faster in smaller spaces. Then you add in his many arm angles to go around you when you actually do get to him. And then try doing that all game. You pretty much have to be exhausted by the 2nd half |

If their plan is to rely on a lot of zone defense... good luck doing that without your safeties and your best cover LB. |

People are picking the Bucs because "games are won in the trenches". It's like they didn't watch the Patriots over the last 10 years, flipping the ball to undersized WR's and RB's in less than 2 seconds while blanketing the field with DB's and rushing 3. It's like they haven't watched the Chiefs all year, moving the ball at will regardless of who plays OL. The modern NFL is about matchups, especially individual player matchups. The whole "trenches" argument died years ago. |

Does anybody really think he's going to be able to plant and pivot in pass defense, especially to cover slants or, God forbid, Travis Kelce? |

Eh I honestly don’t think the injuries for the Bucs are a big deal. I think they’re just being cautious. They’ll all play, and other than Whitehead, they should be fine.
Hope I’m wrong though. |

Not that they won't play but I get the feeling they won't be fully 100%. Whitehead though, I could totally see him last a quarter before he has to come out. He's still legitimately injured from the sounds of it. |

Like every other game The Chiefs have played in the last season and a half:
If they take care of their business, they'll win. It's possible that they don't. I don't think it's likely. |
