I thought I saw like a 60% chance. More than slight. But still will be fun to watch them play in snow. And I don’t know if the weather will affect the KC offense much. They destroyed a good Jags D (at the time) in the rain. I think I would rather have a Mahomes ball in the air over Ware trying to gain yards on a wet field.

If the field conditions are wet, I like the Chiefs chances a little better against the Colts cover 2 zone where it's easier to make a 4 yard catch and then make a defender in that zone slip, busting for a big gain. Also advantage Tyreek Hill kick returns.

I'm pumped for one of the first plays for the Chiefs being a Kelce route in the middle and Hill streaking in between the corner and safety in the Cover 2 and Mahomes picking whoever he wants to throw it to.

It's going to be a field day for this offense. I think KC can hold Indy under 30, and I think KC will score more than 30.

Tampa Cover 2. Exploit the middle of the field. All. Day. Long. 4 verts, mesh concepts. I would hope that AR has game planned ways to scorch earth that Colts defense.

Wet field favors the offense because I know where my guide points are and where I need to be. Defense doesn't. Wet ball, favors the defense but I don't see that being an issue with the Chiefs.

Obviously stats can be skewed in a variety of ways but doing a bigger deep dive into the strengths of the Colts...their offensive line allowed the least amount of sacks but the teams they faced were in the bottom half of pressures and sacks. They greatly benefited from a weak second half schedule. This is a good team but the Chiefs just can't beat themselves.

Keep it a two score game. Limit the Colts opportunities to run the ball and make Luck throw it. Put those olinemen in a position were they have to pass pro against Ford, Houston and Jones.

^^^^^
If Indy becomes a team that has to pass more than they want, they become a pedestrian team. Luck does extremely well in play-action and on quick hitters.

So, who's watching what? The teevee at Chez 99 will have Kansas hoops.

Chiefs game and it isn't an option for me.

This is one of 30+ games for Kansas. This is win or go home for Chiefs. And a max of 3 games left. I'll take every opportunity to watch Kansas basketball after the Chiefs are done.

That's a good idea - but got lots of work this weekend, so four hours of sports is probably going to have to be it.

This is a top 4 sports weekend of the year. Let it be consumed by conference play in basketball and the Elite 8 for the NFL.

Don't know if this has been posted yet but check out this read about Mahomes. He actually practices some of those crazy throws!

And EB misses practice today after being limited yesterday. That could be precautionary (or his routine for one day on, one day off) but I will be shocked if he plays on Saturday.
If he misses practice next week they need to put him on IR and end this circus. There is plenty of blame to go around for this situation but from a fans perspective I am sick and tired of it.
Someone from the Chiefs needs to step in and put an end to this before EB's entire legacy gets throw in the trash.

I agree that if it's going to be this will-he-or-won't-he going into next year, a separation makes the most sense. It's not that Eric Berry is soft - FAR, FAR from it - it's that he's fragile and unreliable.
