In context
HouseThat was a challenge on paper. But from there, the Chiefs have handled their business with mixed results.
HouseMahomes isn't exactly lighting the world on fire with past attempts. His average depth of target isn't, you know, he's still working his way back from his leg injuries. But they have this weapon that they've acquired. And you've got to give it up to Andy Reid and the entire Chiefs staff. What they've done with Kenneth Walker, especially those outside zone runs, have been just incredible.
Houseand Andy Reid was like, you know, you forgot about Reid and he is out there putting it up. But the Seattle defense, their run defense, an entirely different class.
HouseThe only thing that concerns me, two things concern me. Darnold and this number is stuck at two and a half. Why has this number stayed at two and a half all goddamn week? That's a little bit of a concern for me, but I have to play it. I have to play Seattle minus the two and a half AD.
DabbundoWould it be that Pat Mahomes in his career is 13, three and one against the spread when lines and underdog. Yeah.
DabbundoThat's the scary thing for me here.
