Maybe it's the audio mixing, but this crowd sounds dead. Still better home field than the Chargers would have in LA though.

Weird broadcast and the camera work was really something else.

Hopefully the Chiefs are still going to be good though. I know lots of people hate them now, but they were so bad for so long. Just a few more years of greatness!

I didn't watch it either but just looking at the highlights, was that not a clear hold uncalled on the Chargers' last TD?

Kind of looked like one of the early Mahomes years games for the Chiefs last night. Defense was non-existent, running game non-existent, only reason that game was close was Mahomes. Decent chance they start 1-3 with the Eagles next and the Ravens in week four. Hopefully that was the last Brazil game, between the cheap production and the dead crowd it had a very preseason vibe to it.

In those first years, they actually had some playmakers in the offence as Kelce was going into his prime and Tyreek Hill was emerging as a star, Sammy Watkins wasn't washed, and Kareem Hunt was a lot younger (albeit only on the team for 9 games). After Worthy went out it really seemed to mess up the Chiefs for awhile as they didn't seem to know who they could try and get the ball too. I'm annoyed that they didn't play Jaylen Moore at right tackle, over Taylor. The sooner they escape that albatross the better.

At some point good things come to an end. The other 3 AFC West teams now have very competent coaches. Herbert running for 19 on a 3rd and 14 with a chance to ice the game...he hasn't done that in past seasons. He's been too passive. If he starts playing with that swagger and confidence to go with the tools he has, the Chargers will stop Chargering.

Chiefs under 11.5 wins was the easist money there was in the betting market this year.

edit..I also have to note that Hollywood Brown..catches the ball and stops every single time thinking he can make a move and break free. He probably cost himself a TD on that 4th down play because rather than just go...he stopped to try and juke defenders who were behind him Plus about 10 other yards if he would just keep going after catching the ball. Of course he had an easy drop that also cost yards. If this is the top option in the passing game...yikes.

We watched the patriots do this exact song and dance to start the year for like a decade, I'm not going to write the Chiefs eulogy quite yet.

Yeah for as underwhelming as the Chiefs were if Chris Jones keeps contain instead of crashing inside they probably win that one. But that one did end their one score voodoo streak if nothing else.
