Kansas City Chiefs Thread

I am so happy right now!! I screamed with joy as they wore down the clock and surely woke up my entire apartment block.

So many times I thought we wouldn't be able to break their defense, and their running game was so impressive.

Delighted for Reid and the whole team. I'm exhausted!!

Will they be parading the trophy around the great state of Kansas ?

Not unless they plan on bringing it around Missouri, where they play, first!

Congrats on the win lads.

All talking about Mahomes but I think you should really be talking about Andy Reid. The Chiefs have been heading the right away since he got there.
Mahomes is a great QB but Reid built the offense.

Where do we go from here?

Mahomes needs to get paid - hopefully he won't bleed the cap ala Brady and allow us to give him some toys to play with - he'll be coining it in from endorsements so no need to get greedy and he doesn't strike me as the type of guy who's like that either

We'll probably lose Chris Jones, and maybe save $14 million on Watkins.

Would love to see a proper RB1 like Bell brought in

Jones says he wants to stay for a decade and build a dynasty which is a nice sound bite but yeah, I’m worried about losing him.

If Watkins takes a significant pay cut then I’d like him to stay, I think he’s had 450 yards in playoff games for the Chiefs which isn’t too shabby and he made a couple of big plays yesterday. Loved seeing him beat Sherman off the line in the last quarter.

Running back by committee has done well all things considered but it’ll be interesting to see where they go from here.

I've decided that Tyrann Mathieu is my team MVP for the season, what a pick up he turned out to be both in terms of his play and his influence on the locker room. Had his problems at LSU and suffered two ACL injuries but overcame it all and was a monster this year, love the man.

Well done lads, little late to the party but was traveling . Terrific performance overall and the better team won in the end.

Best team in the NFL with the best player, although I think Williams was robbed of the MVP Mahommes was quality when he needed to be.

Delighted for Andy Reid and the Honeybadger , what a season for him, quality player and leader.

Enjoy the glow of being Champions!

Another weapon for Mahomes, RB out of LSU.

The consensus seems to be that it was a great draft for the Chiefs with some needs addressed. I'm only a casual college football watcher so have been encouraged by the reports I've read and listened to.

Really? C+ is the best draft grade I’ve seen

Not drafting someone to replace Fuller will bite us in the arse- cornerback has been a problem since Marcus Peters

The Arrowhead Pride podcasts have been glowing for each round, no less than a B for the draft overall with a few As in there too. Those guys tend to be very knowledgeable about anything Chiefs related and they do extensive work on the draft.

And I had a read of this, for example - 2020 NFL Draft: Final quick-snap grades for all 32 teams

Day 1 grade: A-
Day 2 grade: B
Day 3 grade: B
Overall grade: B+

But hey, we'll see come training camp who impresses and makes the roster.

A lot of sites are reluctant to give anything less than a B due to the fact that every year, people talk about how Bleacher Report gave the Seahawks an F for the Russell Wilson / Bruce Irvin / Bobby Wagner draft. They get ridiculed on an annual basis and no one wants to leave themselves open to that anymore.
