I mentioned earlier that as a very young boy I liked the raiders (stabler, Casper, etc). However when stingley was paralyzed and Matt Millen hit the owners son with a helmet in the head after a game I was done. I am very excited that they are coming to Vegas soon! After they come we will grab @Peter Gozintite and all go to a game together !


Get in touch with @Manster7588 too.....

My buddy who's from KC is unhappy with me for saying the name Tom


They do, it's always close and it's always got tons of drama.... I think the AFC title game is gonna be one of those crazy ones, just have a feeling...
Wish this could've been at the razor. Oh well we'll see if they can find some magic. NE was a terrible road team this year.

The Patriots are going to win this game.

The Patriots are a well-oiled machine on both sides of the ball. The way to beat them is throw a toolbox full of wrenches in their gears. On the field, that means strong press coverage (knock the receivers off their routes and throw off the timing of plays off) and get consistent pressure on Brady to rush his decisions. Brady's offensive line thoroughly dominated the Chargers front seven in pass protection and run blocking yesterday and the Chargers defense is a tick better than the Chiefs defense. The Chiefs offense might be good enough to keep the game closer than the Chargers could, but the Patriots machine will keep on rolling to another Super Bowl.

The Pats D finally showed up this week as far as pressure on the QB, but from a mobility stand point Mahommes is a hell of a lot more mobile than Old Man Rivers. It will be interesting to see how they handle Mahomes and KCs speed at WR.

I think if the Patriots roll out the same concepts they did when the Chiefs faced them earlier then the Chiefs have a really good shot of winning. I don't think thats what the Patriots are going to do. I think the Patriots are going to send the house against Mahomes like they did against Rivers. I don't think they are going to chip Kelce all game like they did last time they met.

This is the matchup where the Chiefs will miss Hunt a little bit. If Ware is healthy then he can be used for most of the same stuff but if its just the Williams' then it takes away the big play ability out of the RB spot.

This is also the matchup they need Eric Berry and Dorian O'Daniel. It'll be curious to see if either play.

Chris Jones is going to be huge in this matchup like he was last week. Chiefs have to get to Brady without blitzing.

The Patriots have been really suspect on the road all year. The Chiefs defense has been strangely decent the past two games. It gives me confidence that the Chiefs can win this but the Patriots just completely dismantled the Chargers.

The one big advantage for the Pats. Belichick vs. Reid. Everything else probably favors the Chiefs.

If this game comes down to the last 4 minutes, the Pats probably win with BB and Brady. But hanging with the Chiefs offense will be tough.

It's going to take a "Greatest Show on Turf" type game plan, because that's what the Pats are facing.

If they can play as well as they played yesterday they have a very good chance.

They need the run game to work and they need to limit the KC at least some of the time.. LOL
