On I know. But if we played them again, he'd scare me more than McCaffrey.

I still bet McCaffrey is hurt by then anyway.

I keep expecting that but the dude is doing something different now. The Carolina faithful have to be beside themselves with frustration. Never healthy and when he gets hurt it's for long stretches of time but now takes every hit in stride.

Eh I don't mind seeing the Kelce brothers both lose on the same day. The NFL has made them the fucking darlings of the league.

The Chiefs just aren't that great this year.

Their defense is very good. The problem is their offense. Outside of Mahomes and their weapons leave a lot to be desired. Kelce is finally showing his age.

Yeah, they basically recreated their defense. Their offense needs the overhaul next, but with Mahomes they can still beat anyone

They have tried but I have not been impressed with their draft picks at WR at all. Sky Moore I was not high on at all. I thought Rice was pretty limited athletically. They traded for Toney who is just an odd dude and a flake. MVS is athletic but super unreliable catching the ball.

Just seems like everything they have done to try and put young talent at WR was done poorly. Rice, Sky Moore and Hardman were all second round picks over the last 4 years. And none of them looks impressive at all. You know what would have been fun, if they had drafted Hyatt. Or Tank Dell.

What if they have gone up 2 picks and got George Pickens instead of Sky Moore. Or Alec Pierce even. Right now I'd take Jalen Tolbert over those scrubs they drafted.

I appreciate that some of these plays get picked apart over and over. Yet you don't even get a mention when the Eagles player tackles our TE before the ball gets there on what would have otherwise been an easy TD.

It happened again in the Bills game and I wonder if it was the same DB.

It's why I don't feel bad for the Chiefs last night and the missed PI. Like right before that you all got a made up personal foul for hitting your QB in bounds legally. People acting like that shit doesn't happen every single week to teams. Maybe it just never happens to teams like the Eagles, Chiefs etc. So when it doesn't go in their favor it stands out more.

Or how Lane Johnson false starts literally 15 times a game and nobody says a thing about it?

Or how we got called for phantom shit up and down the god damn field in Philadelphia on both sides of the ball?

Or how Buffalo and Miami had about 12 first half penalties each while the refs swallowed their whistles constantly for the Eagles?

Considering the ridiculous whistle the Eagles have gotten all year they deserve to get fucked for the next 6 weeks by the refs just to even things out.

I've not been impressed at all with Moore either, but you see what sticks and move on if it's not working. Rice, Toney, Moore, MVS have not been impressive, but at least the team us churning the pot.

You can't replace the talent of a Kelce or Hill, but what I like is they recognize they need help there and are consistently drafting and signing replacements. They aren't stubbornly sticking with anyone from what I can see. I fully expect more high draft picks next year as well.

They recognize the window they have with Mahomes

You don't have to, but you can do a hell of a lot better with your additions. They don't need the best TE or WR in the NFL to win games. But teams in the NFL have better #3 WR's than they have on their entire roster. I think people are seeing that even a great QB and offensive coordinator can't manufacture things when the weapons aren't good.
