Jared Allen:Chiefs::Ryan Day:Michigan

Jared Allen played 3 years at defensive end for the Chiefs after being drafted by them in 2004, and was then traded to the Vikings. Eventually played a year for the Bears.

Definitely not relevant to this year's postseason or this comparison, though.

Buffalo play calling was terrible. The refusal to abandon the tush push when it was clear that it wasn't working cost them the most important drive of the game. Cook only touching the ball four times in the 1st half was also inexcusable. He gashed the Chiefs every time he touched the ball.

Allen had his worst game of the season. He looked like young Josh at times. Very skittish. Wild throws. The Bills had no answer for Spagnuolo's blitz packages.

The losses of Rapp and Benford were significant. This one was closer than it probably should have been.

Also stop going for 2 so early in the game because you might tie it or get it to within 3. Failed 2 point conversations cost Buffalo 2 points, and KC doesn't go for 2 on their last TD. It's a tie game.

Yeah it was pretty infuriating honestly. I'm very glad the NFL has learned that you should be more aggressive on 4th down and going for 2, but it was obviously wrong in both these games.

One of those going for 2 by Buffalo they had it from the 1-yard line due to penalty. Buffalo was outcoached, the Chiefs knew every time where Allen was going with the Tush Push, over the RG.

Kansas City vs Philadelphia- You have to go all the way back to 2023 the last time these two teams met for the Super Bowl. Kansas City is -1.5.

I think Philadelphia is the better team but Mahomes >>> Hurts and Reid >>>> Sirianni

Chiefs 24- Eagles 23- Vegas cleans up.

I wouldn't bet on this game with someone else's money. 

I do think the Eagles will win. Saquon is a weapon.

I bet the Chiefs before the year so I probably won’t bet a side on the game. I will, however, once again make way too many prop bets, which is always fun.

Yes me too, lol. Draftkings already has a ton. I always thought they weren't released until the Sunday in between the title games and the SB?

That sounds about right. At the very least it takes a few days to pop up.

I want so bad to see Saquon truckroll the Chiefs.

Yeah after the first failure you have to know the Chiefs had it figured out.  Don’t just keep doing it.

lol Chris jones

 

“I wear the same gloves,” Jones said. “I wear the same cleats. I don’t change up cleats throughout the season. My gloves smell like a dead animal. Especially if I get a sack, then it’s over with. I’m not changing them up. Here lately I’ve been wearing long sleeves. We haven’t lost in the long sleeves. I’m gonna knock on wood. Yes, little things, man, little things, even my meal prep. If I had a good game last game and I would eat the same thing as the same thing I ate last week, so it’s like little things that are important, you know what I mean?”

Pretty cool there will be an NFL game in Melbourne. Just hope it doesn’t clash with the AFL finals series, which has began in the second week of September for the last several years. Schedule the NFL game a week earlier when there is nothing on at the MCG and we are all good.
