Absolute shit, all the way: Nickelodeon's 4th-string commentators, paying more attention to cartoon figures and pineapple-clad pizza than the game. And let me hasten to add that neither one of the teams is among my favorites, so it's not about Mahomes' pathetic performance, from my standpoint. Genuinely unwatchable; after enduring a few minutes of the first quarter, I settled for occasional updates from my spouse.

Unfortunately, an ongoing contract dispute is depriving my part of the world from viewing CBS at this point in time.

Right now, as it sits, they'd be hosting the Buffalo Bills.

They have been eliminated for the #1 seed, but if they lose out and the Raiders win out they also will lose the division.

He truly is a players coach

Get a load of this: Antonio Pierce coached Jack Jones at Long Beach Polytechnic High School and at Arizona State! Two pick sixes in two weeks, Baby!

Remember, 2 years ago, same basic situation with Rich Bisaccia yet didn't hire him and instead went with a "name." (Mark Davis is an idiot)

He didn't get very good protection from his O-line, which didn't help. To be sure, he did some stupid stuff, but those second-rate receivers just weren't on his page.

I know I have made this known before but...I actually don't like football much. I adore Mahomes so I watch and usually pay no attention unless he is on the field. It has not been a good year but there are more years left in him and we will see what happens. Yes there is major suckage going on there.

year. Have new receivers this year that don’t seem to know what they are doing. To many dropped balls. To many interceptions. To many penalties. I could go on. Raiders turned it around when they fired their head coach recently. By the way Chiefs. Get rid of M. Nagy. He didn’t do well when he was Bears coach and why they chose Nagy I don’t understand. Veach made a grave error letting O coach, Eric B. leave.
