We all look at them because of Patrick Mahomes and Tyree Kill and Travis Kelsey, who just reminds us he is the best site in the football.

And we say, Look, thes brothers unstoppable.

I'm gonna sit up there and say to you, I've seen some vulnerabilities.

The Raiders played them pretty damn tough last night.

I thought the Chiefs was gonna blow them out.

We talked about this last week, and I had the Chiefs running away with this game because I thought it's gonna be a vengeful, eventual game because the debate Raiders had put them gave them their only loss for the season.

But when you run the football, when you engage in ball control and you play smash mouth kind of football and you're able to move to change, that could create some problems for the Kansas City Chiefs.

We saw the defense arguing on the sidelines with one another because guys were open, wide open in a couple of situations where Derek Carr was able to throw a touchdown pass.

You just look at some of the things this year when you watch the chief play.

How many times is Patrick Mahomes gonna be called upon to come to the rescue.

I'm in no way trying to say that they're not the favorites.

But do I look at them as a team that could be had?

You can't just sleep on Pittsburgh if they would.

Obviously, if they get to the Super Bowl, you can't just sleep on a Tampa.

You damn sure can't sleep on New Orleans.

That's why I say, Excuse me, they're the favorites.

But doubt about their potency compared to what we've seen, particularly last year, there's a slimmer doubt there for me, personally.

I mean, of course, the Chiefs look vulnerable.

That's the thing about um, The reason I like them to win the Super Bowl is the reasons that you point out Stephen A.

They weren't great in past covers like there were a lot of reasons, and that's been the case by the way.

They had double digit deficits in every game, like they're down to Texans.

They're down to the Titans, their way down late to the San Francisco 40 Niners, and they come back on all of them.

And then early this season and everyone's power rankings, right?

When Patrick Mahomes got the ball back with over a minute to go, that anyone doubt he was gonna win the game, you know it was over.

You give Patrick Mahomes over a minute, and it was It was even easier than I thought it would be.

So, yes, the chief's defense makes them look vulnerable.

It makes them mawr exciting, maybe even than they should be.

And, yes, it doesn't look as good as it did last year.

Maybe it's good enough, but I'll remind everyone the year before, which is Patrick Mahomes real rookie season as quarterback.

That was the first time he touched the ball, really.

And then the next year they won the Super Bowl, showing vulnerability, and they've shown a lot of vulnerability so far this season to the tune of a nine and one record.

Yep, their defense looked suspect last night, and I'm telling you, it's not gonna matter.

This is the runaway best team in football.

First of all, I wanna make sure everyone understands.

I've been trying for a month to get people to believe that the Raiders are a very, very good football team, and they are built to beat one team, the Kansas City Chiefs.

They control the football and their offensive lying condemn in eight a game, right?

Last night, the Raiders played their A game.

The Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes injury.

That's because the Raiders dared them to do that.

Can you be methodical going down the field and chiefs like, Yeah, we're good.

First of all, I would I would, uh, say to you, You need to watch first, take just a little bit more because about over the last couple of weeks, we had a discussion about who was the sleeper in the A F C, if not the entire NFL.

I mentioned the I mentioned the Las Vegas Raiders, so you ain't the only one who's been talking about them.

I would say their A game is the game they won against the Kansas City Chiefs when they dropped 40 when they rushed for 139 yards when runs scored, you know, had two receptions for 118 yards, including a big time bomb touchdown catch.

Okay, and the defense held the Kansas City teams to eight points in the fourth quarter, so I would make the contention that the eight game was the game, the Raiders one, as opposed to last night's game number three.

I would also say this would be my biggest point.

Here's what I'm willing to contend to you why I feel just a tab bit different when you talk about just having a sliver of doubt.

The Kansas City Chiefs had double digit deficits in the divisional playoff game and the A F C championship game last year, right?

You can't go in the NFC championship game and be down 17 or 24.

You can't be in the A F C divisional playoff game, and that's gonna happen again with the way this defense operates against the run.

I think that a team, if they were able to capture such a lead in the playoffs this year, coming up, I think they will run the ball more effectively, and as a result, they would win those games.

They ain't gonna get away now or what they got away with.

The best chance you have of beating the Chiefs is a shootout, and, by the way, the pretty damn good and shootouts.
