The Kansas City Chiefs are set to begin their first season without Jamaal Charles manning the backfield as their starting running back.

There had been some rumblings around the NFL about Kansas City Chiefs QB Alex Smith after they moved up rookie Patrick Mahomes from third-string to second-string quarterback.

There’s nothing like the return of football, and the league made it a point to deliver even more thrills during the 2017 NFL season with a large serving of tasty matchups to look forward to. That holds especially true for the primetime games when the league has everybody’s undivided attention with its showdowns on national […]

The quarterback market has been at an all-time high lately. Finding quality quarterbacks is so difficult; anybody with mild success will warrant a high draft pick. Let’s look back to a recent quarterback trade. Around this time last season, Minnesota Vikings QB Teddy Bridgewater destroyed his knee and the Vikings quickly went out and traded […]

Kansas City Chiefs lifer Derrick Johnson has terrorized many opposing offenses throughout his decorated football career in the NFL. Players have failed time and again at containing the four-time Pro Bowl linebacker, but perhaps those same players will look to exploit one of his more shocking weaknesses this upcoming season. Johnson recently took to his […]

The 2017 NFL regular season has yet to begin but Kansas City Chiefs rookie gunslinger Patrick Mahomes II has already made progress in his young professional career.

Time flies by when you having fun. It’s hard to believe, but we’re already in the final week of the regular season, and there are plenty of NFL playoff scenarios left to sort out. A lot was decided in Week 16, though. The Baltimore Ravens, Tennessee Titans, Indianapolis Colts, and Denver Broncos were all eliminated […]

The Raiders had a number of chances to come back and tie the Chiefs in the fourth quarter of last night’s game. Even though they reached the red zone later, their best opportunity might’ve come from their own 28-yard line. With the AFC West lead on the line, Oakland faced a 3rd down with over […]

There was a jubilant atmosphere in Arrowhead Stadium on Thursday night after the Chiefs fended off the Raiders to take over first place in the AFC West.

For all of the flack the NFL has received for weak Thursday night football games, this week’s rendition promises to be a great one. In a matchup with huge playoff implications, the AFC-leading Oakland Raiders travel to Kansas City to face the 9-3 Chiefs. KC beat the Raiders earlier this season, so a victory would […]

With only four weeks remaining in the 2016 NFL regular season, a number of teams are still fighting for the final playoff spots. At the moment, only the Dallas Cowboys, New England Patriots, Oakland Raiders, and Seattle Seahawks can feel confident as postseason participants (Dallas has already clinched a spot). The rest of the field […]

Julio Jones is well on his way to having three consecutive seasons with at least 1,500 receiving yards. He’s unlikely to match last year’s insane total of 1,871 (a career high), but at his current pace (a league-leading 1,140 yards), he’ll compile 1,658. For his entire career, coaches have dedicated a significant portion of their […]

After a tough defeat the Sunday before to the Buccaneers, the Chiefs asserted themselves as a strong AFC contender by beating the rival Broncos on the road.

Jack Del Rio needs to work on his phrasing. After his Raiders fell to the Chiefs on Sunday afternoon by a final score of 26-10, Del Rio attempted to compliment the dynamic play of Alex Smith.

It was an ugly outing for Ryan Fitzpatrick and the New York Jets on Sunday afternoon. The Jets suffered a disappointing 24-3 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, but the score doesn’t do justice to how bad it really was. Fitzpatrick played perhaps the worst game of his career, completing under 50 percent of his […]

It’s been a long and winding road back for Kansas City Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles. After a solid start to the 2015 season, Charles tore his ACL in Week 5. He watched from the sidelines as the Chiefs won 10 games in a row and reached the divisional round of the playoffs, only to […]
