My biggest takeaway from this game is that Hunt should be treated as the RB1 moving forward. I LOVE Pacheco so I don’t want to bad-mouth him, but he just hasn’t had it lately. Anyway great team win, get through this gauntlet and we’re looking great for the playoffs.
#14-1!!!!

# 14-1
This might be their best performance all year
One of our best games this season. We’re getting into that January shape! Gotta love it!
Hollywood looked fantastic today.
I know it’s technically a one score game but that one felt pretty good and not that stressful.
Good win. Get one more win, get rested, integrate the injured players more, and go for the three peat.
I didn’t want to jinx it earlier, but that was our 11th game this year holding teams to 20 or less points.
Well, better than last week. Glad Hollywood is back.
Least stressful game of the season, love to see Hollywood back and making plays
Another 1 score, but this is probably the best team we’ve faced since the Bills and this one felt a lot better. A few confusing play calls, but better. Hollywood already making a big impact.
**upboats for Thuney!!**
Love the discipline of the team in 4th quarter. And kudos to Hunt for sliding to end the game instead of padding his stats
Nice we won
Said it in the other thread but the Chiefs played better than what that score ended up being
Kareem is here for the team. He sacrificed his own stats for the guaranteed win and no last minute injuries.
May not seem like much, but Hollywood made a difference today.
Chiefs kneeling it out to pad their one possession game stats haha
Solid, solid, solid all around. We play like this in the playoffs, there is not a single team that can beat us.
Great win!
Prayers for Tank!
Hunt should be RB1 and it’s not really close right now.
I thought we looked pretty good! Let’s win on Christmas and then get some much needed rest for our team 🫶🏻
Funnest game all season to watch. LFG!!!
Texans fans mourning Dell and wishing they would hit Mahomes harder in the same breath is crazy work
Offense definitely looked a lot better today. Having Hollywood is going to be huge!
I definitely have to eat crow about resting Mahomes, he looked pretty good.
Hollywood is back and Worthy looks better each week. Just need the o-line to step up and we should be good.
The offense was actually pretty good, all things considered. They weren’t perfect by any means but they were way more in sync this week than last.
Defense was good, too, but also weirdly had 2 or 3 awful drives.
What is the Taylor injury?
The copium on the NFL sub is unreal.
#RAISE YOUR HAND IF YOUR TEAM IS 14-1
This is a really good game.
Apart from some questionable 3 and long and a bad 4th down attempt, both sides executed quite well.
RE-WATCHING THAT LAST BIG RUN, JUJU BLOCKED HIS ASS OFF, HIT THREE DIFFERENT GUYS TO KEEP THEM OFF HUNT!
GOOD GUY, JUJU!
One of the cleanest offensive games we’ve played all season. The line did a phenomenal job especially considering Houston is one of the best pass rush defenses in the NFL. Now if we can just clean up the 3rd down defense, we’d be playoff ready.
Mahomes gonna put that Madden Cast trophy right next to his MVP and Super Bowl MVP trophy’s 😂
Great win. Two picks that resulted in a TD and a FG. Worthy was a dawg. Kareem and Perine were very clutch.
Defense gave up a lot of 3rd down conversions but they got stops when it mattered
At the end of the day, we put up 27 points against the 4th best defense (which could’ve been 34 if Kareem walked it in but not necessary), great sign going into post season. Go chiefs
Finally a win that doesn’t feel like we slipped on a banana peel and fell backwards into it.
Prayers for Tank Dell tho. Hope he’s okay. 🙏
I can’t believe we’re 14-1. Just crazy
Buffalo would have scored a TD if they were in that situation at the end to run up the score, but KC has class.
Happy Patrick was able to go and stayed (relatively) clean today.
You have to believe losing Dell sucked the life out of the Texans. They were not in the mood to play football. 100% understandable.
That being said, best game of the season in all 3 phases. Some clean up, but have to feel good about that one.
