Good morning, AG!
Today in Chiefs’ history, in 2014, Chiefs fans reclaim the world record for loudest stadium with 142.2 Db against the Patriots.
Some other stuff may have happened. The opera The Magic Flute by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart premiered in Vienna.

Chiefs’ Chris Jones Issues Warning to Tyreek Hill Ahead of Germany Matchup | Heavy
When asked by Jason what would happen if Tyreek attempted to block him in the same way, Jones said in the September 29 episode, “Listen, Tyreek weigh a buck eighty — probably a buck forty. Honestly, Tyreek is just too small, man. I would f****ing pluck Tyreek and he will fall over bro. You better stick to catching the ball bro. I don’t think you wanna get in the trenches.”
Chris Jones, Kadarius Toney Ready to Play, Nick Bolton Out for Chiefs vs. Jets | Chiefs Digest

Jones and wide receiver Kadarius Toney were both limited in practice this week and carry no game-day designations. That means they are expected to play Sunday night. Jones played 16 snaps last week against Chicago after suffering a groin injury while a sprained toe held Toney to just two offensive snaps.
Chiefs: 2 bold predictions for Week 4 game vs. Jets | Cluth Points
https://clutchpoints.com/chiefs-predictions-week-4-jets
The Chiefs-Jets game couldn’t come at a worse time for New York. The Jets are reeling are two straight losses, during each of which Rodgers’ presence was sorely missed. The 2023 season is going to quickly get away from the Jets if they aren’t careful. What New York needs is a matchup with a middling opponent, not a game against a team that’s made five straight AFC Championship Game appearances.
Chiefs OC Matt Nagy preparing for a ‘fistfight’ battle with Jets’ defense | Chiefs Wire
Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy is proud of his unit’s growth last Sunday in the rout of the Chicago Bears, but he’s well aware that the Jets are a defense to be concerned about Sunday night. Nagy addresses his thoughts on the matchup without holding back on his description of New York’s toughness during Thursday’s press conference.
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes talks chemistry with Travis Kelce | Chiefs Wire
“I don’t know why, I just kind of understand what [Kelce] is going to do – some stuff that he isn’t supposed to do,” Mahomes explained. “There are times in practice where we were thinking about making a call for that when we get that look, for him to run that route. He has a good understanding of the whole entire concept, he understands the coverages, takes a lot of reps, and I just try to develop that trust that wherever I see it one way, he is going to do it that way.”
Chiefs DC Steve Spagnuolo warns that any team can be beat in the NFL | Chiefs Wire
“Well, I can tell you this, the thing that we led off with in yesterday’s meeting was that anybody in this league can beat anybody, and any unit can make another unit look bad,” Spagnuolo explained. “I mean, all you got to do is look around the league and see what happened in some of the games this past week, and the expectations are for this team to do that.
Chiefs DL coach Joe Cullen says LB Leo Chenal’s nickname is ‘The Beast’ | Chiefs Wire
“We call him ‘the beast’ for a reason,” Cullen explained. “No, coach Spags (Steve Spagnuolo) has done a tremendous job, getting opportunities for guys and certain packages when they show that, hey, they love football, and B, they’re going to do it as opposed to doing and Leo is doing a great job.

#Chiefs Dave Toub says punter Tommy Townsend is doing well despite still being listed with a wrist injury.
“We have to put everything on the injury report.” 😅
Another difference in #Chiefs - Eagles from SBLVIII: No Juju Smith-Schuster for KC, who moved the chains 4 times in the 2nd half (plus the defensive holding)
Rashee Rice is now playing that role. If he can be as reliable catching the ball, he has a higher play-making ceiling
One thing different about #Chiefs - Eagles from SB LVIII is Philly missing Dallas Goedert this time around. He fractured his forearm v. Dallas
He made some incredible catches w/ KC in tight coverage. Both of these at important moments in 2nd half
Taco Bell, Olive Garden, Chipotle, and State Farm coming together today over Travis Kelce’s old tweets is hilarious. 😂

And should be considered as standing still. Doping bastards.
The Raiders are releasing Chandler Jones. The team said in a statement that they’re hopeful he gets the care he needs. I’m hoping so too, I’m genuinely worried about his mental health right now.

The NIGHT before I leave for Portugal, my mom gets taken to the hospital (she’s fine, just a UTI). The DAY AFTER I get back, first thing in the morning, I find a leaking pressure valve in the basement. Clearly been that way for a few days. $700 to get it and the lower shut off valve replaced. No good time goes unpunished, I guess.
However, I have been told twice now that I’m very lucky re: valve because usually they just explode without the warning I’m getting. Yay?
Always something, just when you think alls good , it happens….
My last 3 weeks:
Dryer died
Garbage disposal died
Ice maker leaks
Mom into hospital twice
GLORIOUS WEEK IN PORTUGAL
Home to a flooded basement
But how was Portugal?
GLORIOUS. Great weather, everyone there was super nice. The tour I took, Trek Travel (bicycle touring) did a wonderful job. A couple of walking tours included, with a wine tasting (that was kind of lost on me as I don’t really drink wine, but it was interesting) and 6 course meal on the last night.
Great food, hotel, riding, and 12 people without an asshat in the bunch. Other than me, of course.
If I had the cash I would move there.
Depending on where, I think it’d be reasonably cheap. Not Lisbon, but the countryside should be. Lots of ex-pats in the Porto area, apparently.
Holly crap that’s a lot all at once , plus the stress of the trip.. sorry 😢
I hate going on vacation. I love BEING on vacation, but hate GOING on vacation.
The trip was so enjoyable, and Mom is fine, so it is all good.
Same here ,I hate travel. But once there let the party begin…. I’ve never taken a trip like that, maybe one day ..
Yep. Last weekend I missed the entire game. Instead, I was taking my cat to the emergency vet, which cost us $1000. Cat’s fine now btw.
Most important part. Cat is fine.
