That's why you should always run everyone to the sticks even on 3rd and 22, because all the defenders dropped Mahomes had that massive lane.

Easy you run when you don’t call the blatant offensive holding.

There goes the refs bailing out the Chiefs; missing obvious holding calls on them

I like the idea of an underdog or up and coming team. Someone suggested the jaguars. Any other ideas?

If you’re a Flames fan, cheer for the Titans, mediocrity and disappointment at its finest!

Tight spot for Chiefs over bettors, they can run out the clock without scoring a TD.

Isn't that the Chargers??

Although I kind of think everyone should cheer for the Chargers just because Herbert quoted Monty Python and the Holy Grail post-game today

Poor Wilson. He actually had a really good game. But the turnover.

Cris Collinsworth is obsessed with Mahomes; he may need new pants with how much he cummed.

If Zach can actually use this as a springboard then the Jets might be ok. Their defense has already made Allen and Mahomes both look bad so we know they are good. They just need mostly what they got from Zach tonight, minus the fumble. Smart, efficient ball with picking spots to make tighter throws, but actually throwing with confidence like he did tonight.

I hope some people are noticing how well CJ Stroud has played so far. Yet to throw a pick and just looks like a good all around QB. There are a bunch of stats being thrown around that put him in rarified air as far as starts to a career.

Once he gets behind an NFL offensive line he could be superb.

Titans lost AJ Brown and had to watch him play in the Superbowl, same year Flames lost Tkachuk and had to watch him in the Cup finals....

It really pisses me off that I can’t even watch football without hearing about Taylor Swift ad nauseum. #### you Travis Kelce.

Jets did show up and they played hard. C.J.Mosely really showed up. But Chiefs have always played badly in New York or specifically New Jersey. They don't look anywhere near what Buffslo does right now. But it's only week 4 and you can't win the Superbowl now. But the Chiefs have a ways to go if they want to be playing more than one game I'm January. Might want to shed some of these off field distractions sooner than later.

I’m a Seahawks fan and I still watch redzone mostly even when they are playing.. easier with the kids running around.
I googled it and it seems like a bizarre concept. I could only visualize the idea as a hockey fan. So basically it would be like an NHL "broadcast" that cuts to every goal 20 seconds before it happens.

To me that seems like a highlight show for $110 a year?

It’s a good way to watch football. You’ll get to watch live football, often two or more games at once. You’ll see a lot of plays. I often watch it as I watch the Eagles games

The thing is the NHL or NBA have games that have uninterrupted action while the clock is running. It's not like you have a shot on goal or a made basket and the action just stops for 20-40 seconds after like the NFL. So with RedZone you get a play, and then instead of waiting for the next play they'll take you to another play, and another, and another. It is commercial free too, so outside of halftimes the action doesn't stop. Late window is a bit more sparse because there's usually only 2-3 games instead of 7-8 in the early window though.

If you watch a condensed NFL game (i.e. just the snap to whistle) it's about 30 minutes long. There is a lot of dead time to cut out and that's what RedZone does.

This is why I just watch redzone. It's the best thing to watch not only to keep up with every game going on at the same time, but also nice to see for fantasy football purposes.

I only really watch the full game if it's thursday/snf/mnf if I have nothing else going on.
