    The players and coaches will decide the outcome, maybe the refs might have some input too It doesn't matter one way or another what we want or think will happen, and same goes for the media...they'll stick to their talking points as long as they can...

      the refs might have some input too. After all, this "is" the Chiefs lol. Wonder how many roughing the passer Mahomes gets called in his favor? We're gonna be all over him.. I think this game for as early in the season as it is,is going to be very intense...

        Predictions for the game.

        Game will come down to final drive.

        Justin to Allen will be like old times.

        Hampton will score a TD.

        Refs will make a controversial call

        QJ will drop a pass.

        Pipkins will whiff a block and opponent blows up the play.

        Special team will be quote "special". Could be bad or good.

        TPB post game posts will be ten times more if Bolts lose.

        Who has it better than us?

          I'm hoping the coaching staff takes care to show our online and running backs the Tillery tapes as a player they can target and also let Herbert get a reminder of his cheep shots... Pick on the week link whenever possible!
          Go Rivers!

            They don’t need to put Haskins in early to block, both Hampton and Harris are plus blockers. Omarion isnt a Ronnie Harmon 3rd down back, he’s an every-down back.

            I wouldn’t put my #1 draft pick first string RB on the bench so I can play my 3rd string UDFA. There is nothing Haskins does better than Hampton, literally and objectively nothing.

              Huh?

              At any rate, my satisfaction will come when either Greg Roman becomes a better OC (his passing "schemes" still have too many receivers running to the same part of the field at the same time) or he decides to resign again. I don't believe he's got what it takes anymore and I'm sad he's friend's with Jim. Love is, indeed, blind.

                Would LOVE to see that!

                Please, Lord, let this happen!

                  regardless what the names may suggest.
                  Sadly, I think his playbook comes from the days of stone tablets.

                    You may be thinking of old "Two-Eyed" Harris, the blocker. I'm curious to see how good this new "One-Eyed" Harris will be.

                      He's catching footballs. Indications are he can see a football player.

                        I think if anyone is going to get 'eased in' it might be Harris, he hasn't played all preseason and he could be rusty, my hope is he doesn't fumble the ball, a lot of times guys that haven't had live action for a while end up losing the ball...

                        All three of them will get carries and hopefully Roman will let Herbert pass to them too, we didn't see enough passes to RBs last year...can't wait to see what Hampton can do...

                          Yeah, I think Rman is just not a good play caller either...the best play caller Herbert has ever had was during his rookie year when he had Shane Steichen...
