Chiefs vs Chargers-Thursday night football

[Happy2BeHere]

What an overtime win for the chiefs

Kelce is so damn good.

Do any of you guys know my history of reverse jinxes? I really really have to root hard against teams and players I love in order for good things to happen to them. I trashed Peyton on Broncos forums saying noodle arm and everything in 2015 hoping it would work out. I had to do the same for Mahomes who I am a fan of as well. It is just the way I roll. It hurts not being myself.

Chargers deserved to lose, they left to many points unattained and it was just a matter of time before Mahomes got hot.

Have bills played Chargers?

 

Er, I misread, no, the Bills don't play the Chargers this year, the Patriots did and beat them.

 

If the Bills win out and you guys can beat the Patriots, Bills would get the division (split H2H, Bills win with better division record, 5-1 vs 4-2).

If Chargers were colts everyone would be trashing Reich right now lol.

You take points vs quality teams, kick the f.g.'s..it cost Staley and the Chargers big time. A shame Chargers outplayed them

Staley is getting trashed and rightfully so

I agree. Analytics doesn't measure heart of the defense on the opposing side, it doesn't account for imperfect execution on offense or drops, that is what head coaches need to realize. Players are not robots executing in a vacuum.

As he should! I  could see going for it on 4th & goal inside the 5 yard line once, or twice if he'd scored on the 1st attempt but there is no excuse for disrespecting an NFL defense like that as many times as he did, and they shoved it in his face 3 out of 4 times.

Mahomes came through for me on my parlay and on fantasy. 
 

Sad news is I had to start Mike Williams due to Connor and Mitchell

Kelsey finally had a great game for me tonight. 

 

Too bad I'm on a bye.

Again, like Reggie Wayne said "the other team is on scholarship too". Going up by 14 or going up by 9 is still going up by 2 scores which changes the opposition's play calling on offense as the game goes on. I would focus more on that instead of blind analytics which doesn't account for the imperfect execution by humans. He compounds it by playing man coverage vs Mahomes (shaking my head). Staley really crapped the bed on national TV.

No bye in my league and I’m the 1st seed

I hate such kinds of leagues. Fluky 8th seed teams have won in such leagues I can remember of. One such team had Todd Gurley a few years ago. Why have a regular season if you are going to let them all into the playoffs (8 out of 12)?

Yes 8 out of 12. The 8th seed team has Tyreek Hill, Kamara, and Lamar Jackson

Hope Lamar doesn't play then.

I am late to the party but the Chiefs usually always find a way. That division is over now. They remain my pick to come out of the AFC and I have GB in the NFC. On my way home from work Kevin Bowen said if we beat the Pats we have an 88% chance of making the playoffs now.

Frank would be ran out of town. As much as Frank goes for it, I don't think he goes for it twice in a row. He would've once I am sure of that. Just an extra 3 points wins the game for the Chargers because it never goes to OT if that happens.

How about the dropped passes by the Chargers? The 4th down calls are getting the HC hammered today typically by the media. If he had succeeded they would be kissing his feet. When you reel in a QB like Herbert staff your team with receivers that can CATCH THE BALL!!

I’m a big fan of Herbert, but I have to say his ball placement at times was off. He was throwing it way too hard and high.
