Hey guys it’s Alcaraz vs. Djokovic on the tennis channel right now if anyone’s interested

Oh dude, thx!  I nearly missed that.

Boys BOYS!!! This is amazing. What a win. 

Some things to clean up and the Chiefs were missing their two key guys (whatever to that though) but they just beat Patrick Mahomes in Arrowhead. This is much bigger than just 1-0. Ford Field is going to be a zoo next week and I'm here for all of it. BNL!!!

Both teams have looked rusty this first game and I expect BOTH teams to look better and better as the season goes along...

So you're saying it'll be a different game when they meet in the SB?

[Kamakzie]

I can't wait to listen to 97.1 the ticket tomorrow afternoon. That is going to be crazy

[Mr.TaterSalad]

Can you imagine how good they can be once they figure out the offensive play calling and get more creative with Gibbs.

Hey, T & P.   You owe Aaron Glenn & the Secondary an apology.   They adjusted at the half.    Their defense made the plays they needed to. 

 

Not the best play-calling game for Ben Johnson, but they probably don't want to empty the playbook and overshow the rookie yet.    Baby steps man.     

 

This team is mentally tough as hell.   Never saw that before. 

[TP_Fan]

This is a weird feeling. It’s different now.

Sorry Aaron.  Ben, do better.

Best thing about this win is the Lions clearly still have a lot of room for improvement, especially with the secondary.  Looked to be a lot of confusion at times with the guys not knowing who was supposed to take who.   I'm sure that'll sort itself out as they get more playing time together.

just sitting here laughing.,

Talking heads pre game "Mahomes can win with anybody"  Talking heads after Lions win "Mahomes really missed Travis Kelce, this game would've been totally different if he played."

he did.

on the game winning drive.

two and a half great drives was all they needed.

the game ball goes to kansas city's receiving corps.  thanks fellas!

[Mr.TaterSalad]

This running game could be real dangerous if they commit to it and get Gibbs worked in more consistently. Really excited to see what this running game can evolve into. No more up the middle, HB Dives for 2 yards a piece. Some run game creativity and the talent to do it.

Number 74 is moving early every snap. 

Edit: Even Collinsworth had to point it out.
