In a just world that should be a flag for flopping on Mahomes

There is almost nothing funnier than the announcers inexplicably going crazy over another goofy Mahomes pass (as if a normal throw in that situation wouldn't work just fine), along with waxing poetic over the Mahomes/Kelce connection....immediately followed by another goofy Mahomes pass that bounces off of Kelce and into the hands of a defender.

Also, we have seen this shit before. Mahomes is Brett Favre 2.0.

This game has gone perfectly for the Titans
For sure, but I'm pleasantly surprised how not fluky it feels. I still think KC pulls this out, but Tennessee is legitimately impressing me tonight. I haven't seen much of Willis before, but he's looked more like he might be ready to be the actual starter this year than I was led to believe he would.

I love barbecue and I will look for it sometimes when visiting places.

But have you ever run into one of those bbq proselytizers? You can’t get them to shut up. They are like vegans. Except the vegan part. Because they like meat, I mean. Otherwise, though. Yeah.

I got a kick out of the Titans fan in the end zone holding a “Memphis BBQ is better” sign.

Absolutely nothing fluky about the defense. This is a physical team that really gets after you. If the QB situation can be figured out, there is potential for a nice run like a couple years ago. At some point, the QB has to be able to throw though.

These guys play their asses off for Vrabel. He is a good motivator and seems to be a very good overall coach. KC during the Mahomes era has had trouble with them. This would be a big time win on Sunday night as a double digit underdog in KC with a QB who has completed 4 passes all night.

Getting trapped In a room of people debating barbecue styles is rough, but if that is the way to trash talk KC fans then I guess I support it.

There may come a point where Tennessee needs to have offense and they will have forgotten how to do it.

Tennessee is winning this
Believe it when I see it. Just a matter of time before the Chiefs have an 80 second drive with 4 plays going 70 yards and Collinsworth is asking where it has been all night. Titans should try to score here.

That was a killer. Two scores would have been enormous. As is, feels like the TEN defense can’t hold up like this forever.
