Agree. And without or top two lineman we lost by one possession

I personally like our chances of upsetting the Chiefs. A single play in the last two games cost us those two wins. First, a injury to our most important lineman on the third play of the game totally wrecked our game planning, and then a boneheaded attempt to field a punt on the very first touch of the next game gave the opponent half the "offense" they needed to squeak one out.

Mahomes has not been playing up to his normal level and the team has lost the best weapon at both WR and RB. Teams are basically taking Travis TayTay out of the game with double teams.

Let's just see who we get back with the extra day of preparation.
