Well, I don’t see a whole lot of daylight between the 2 teams.

However...

Now that GZ is back, and factoring in Littleton, Hekker, plus our coverage tackling? I’ve gotta give the ST edge to the Rams. Hekker is perfectly capable of kicking away from their PR studs and GZ can kick it out of the end zone all game long. Slight advantage Rams.

And the D’s? C’mon... The Chiefs have to string together a few more low scoring D efforts before I’m convinced. Big edge to the Rams.

As to the two O’s? Both are elite, no doubt about it. But I will say this. I suspect that McVay has been keeping some things under wraps because they just haven’t really been needed so far. But you can believe that the Chiefs will get the whole load. Another thing is that Kupp will be back and 100% healthy by then. I just think that the Chiefs D is less capable of slowing the Ram O than the Ram D is capable of slowing the Chief O. Slight advantage Rams.

Gonna be interesting to see what the “over” line will be by game time. Lol.

this games intrigue has been growing more and more each week and I doubt it stops before the 1st kickoff in Mexico City...

I’ll admit that this matchup scares me a bit. They have a very good TE in Kielce. They have a very elusive RB in Hunt. They have a very fast WR in Hill. Throw in the magic of Mahomes and this could be a very bad matchup for our defense. They are just the type of players to give the Rams trouble this season, all in one grouping.

If Donald and Co. can pressure Mahomes like they did Beathard, then maybe they can pull it off. I’d feel better if Talib were healthy.

Heavy conditioning workouts with oxygen deprivation masks all week long. Look how goddamn good these things look too:

The Chiefs will be a great matchup for football entertainment, but the NFC games against the Saints Eagles Bears Pack etc will be much more important to the Rams for the playoff rankings, right now the Saints especially.

I think not only McVay is keeping some things under wraps, but AD and Wade P. are as well. This last game AD was tearing through OL's. I think he's been holding back the first few games & now is ready to kick it into BEAST mode. Wade P. getting a bit more creative dialing up blitzes. Littleton being used more effectively. I think Mahomes gets the full Mob Squad treatment.

Well what you describe there is a bit of daylight..........we have some weeks to go until then but yeah this is going to be THE game that weekend.

That looks like some type of chastity device.
