Ravens Chiefs soon

[Happy2BeHere]

Baltimore scores first blood. Henry with the TD. Hope the chiefs lose.

Don’t think I’m going to be able to stomach Collinsworth kissing Mahomes’ rear end all night.

I really dislike him more than any other commentator in the league…

He has always gave me a headache listening to him.  He used to rag on early Manning till Manning became an all pro.

Football is back!!!

 

 

 

[RollerColt]

Ravens have 0 answers for all the fast KC receivers. 

[NFLfan]

These teams are soooo good.  They have so much talent. The Chiefs are so fast!!!

Right!!! The Chiefs are so fast. Worthy 😲

 

Baltimore got a stop.

[crazycolt1]

The Ravens are going to be tough to beat with Henry in the back field

I’m lost… they showed a live gator from Greenwood Indiana for… reasons?

Carson Steele is from Ball State and is a fullback for the Chiefs. That is his gator, I think.

It's hard for me to grasp calling an alligator a pet.

[NFLfan]

I don't like the new kickoff. It does not look like the football I enjoy.

Yea…if it can take my junk off in one bite it won’t be my pet that’s for sure…

I like it myself…mostly because I really never enjoyed those collisions that caused potential of severe paralysis, death, etc… I realize this is football…but those were always the most dangerous play in football when you’ve got a defender just running full steam ahead and just cracks someone in the head.

It's better than doing away with it like they were considering

Yea I concur…doing away altogether is a bad option.

Ravens defense holding up nicely in that redzone.

I hear you. I agree there. I hate injuries. I just don't like how this new kickoff looks. It looks weird, but if it prevents injuries, I can get used to it.

[Happy2BeHere]

I’ve never seen so many penalties for illegal formation by one team in an entire game of football yet we aren’t even halfway…just crazy.

[gspdx]

Taylor for KC is getting away with lining up in the backfield and moving early.  Ravens are really getting called for it.  I just want the refs to be consistent.

I think there was a few teams that were skirting the rule last season and now the refs are not letting it happen 

[Zoltan]

There has been a crazy amount of penalties so far

[Happy2BeHere]

Is that Matt Gay out there kicking for the Ravens ?

KC's Taylor was horrible in the first game last year and he's doing it tonight and not getting called.

[crazycolt1]

I think both defenses have played pretty good

Too many.

Feels like week 1 is a preseason game for the starters

They were considering doing away with kickoffs??? What were they going to replace it with?

I think they were considering just starting the offense at the 25 yd line.  No kick offs at all

Yeah, I would not have liked that either.

[Happy2BeHere]

That was a poor roughing the passer call. Dude was already mid lunge at Patrick when he threw the ball, not a thing you can do to stop yourself.

Can't hit em in the head.  Wasn't much, but...

[crazycolt1]

Seemed like that run was stopped?
