Similar thoughts I had on Nick Saldiveri.

All he's done is slide down the depth chart.

I'm right with you on this one. Somehow, the improbable happens.
Our boys have a good game from start to finish with no bonehead errors.
Contain Mahomes and hit him often.
Somehow get AK41 free in space as a receiver.
Slow down Chris Jones.
Get at least 5 passes to the TE's.

Stranger things have happened. I mean DAMN! I'm looking at perennial non-starter, Sam Darnold QB for an undefeated Vikings squad team, so I like our chances to steal one!

27 Chiefs
17 Saints

Matchups are already tough when you are at full strength, but this team is at a huge disadvantage with so many injuries.

Re: Week 5: Saints @ Chiefs
 

Since 2022, the Saints under head coach Dennis Allen have the NFL’s worst record in prime-time games with a 1-5 record. (Per NFL News). Chiefs 43-23. Kelce has 2 to 3 TD's 100+ yds receiving. I sure hope I'm wrong.

I don’t want to click “like” on your comment, but you’re probably right.

Re: Week 5: Saints @ Chiefs
 

I look at it this way. The most points the Chiefs have managed to score in the first four games is 27 and that was with Pacheco and Rashee Rice, both of whom are now on IR. The most we have given up is 26 and the other three games our opponents were held under 20. I just don't see the Chiefs putting up 43, or for that matter anywhere even close to that.

As for Kelce, the book is out on him, especially with no Rice. Double him and Mahomes basically ignores him.

Our TE's won't get much action since they'll be helping to contain KC's pass rush.
Maybe a catch or two from each, but I ain't holding my breath.

Kamara, Rasheed and Olave must have huge games for the win.

Once again, our O-line will be the difference between a win and a loss.
