Good morning, AG!
Today in Chiefs history, Marty Schottenheimer was named head coach in 1989, Steve Spagnuolo was hired in 2019, and Antonio Hamilton was born in 1993.
The first Boy Scout troop was established in 1908 in England, Winston Churchill died 1965, in Apple’s Macintosh was premiered in 1984, Thurgood Marshall died in 1993, and the rover Opportunity landed on Mars in 2004.
Chiefs now home underdogs vs. Bengals in AFC Championship Game | Chiefswire
According to Tipico Sportsbook, Kansas City (15-3) are 1-point underdogs against Cincinnati (14-4) next Sunday. The over/under point total is set at 47 points scored, which is 3.5 points fewer than their regular season matchup and .5 points fewer than the opening total. The money line is now +100 for the Chiefs, giving K.C. a 50% implied win probability. It was previously -120 for the Chiefs, which tells me that the amount of money bettors are placing on the Bengals has oddsmakers moving the lines.

Lammons’ 322 snaps on special teams during the season were the most by any player in Kansas City and just as recently as this past week, Lammons tied for the most snaps on special teams. 2022 marked Lammons’ third season with the Chiefs, with 42 game appearances, mostly playing special teams in that span.

The defense played seven fewer snaps compared to the offense, which speaks to the four punts they forced and the fourth-quarter fumble recovery and interception.
Chiefs QB Chad Henne says mental reps in practice kept him ready | Chiefswire
“Yeah, I mean, mental reps are big,” said Henne. “I mean, Shane (Buechele) and I and Chris (Oladokun) are always in the back. When Patrick (Mahomes) is up there on offense, we’re in the back doing the drops, doing our run reads as well. So we’re always in the back doing mental reps. But at the same time, after practice, we get with a couple of receivers, and we throw with them, not that they’re the starters. But we kind of get those reps that Patrick got in practice that will get after practice.”
Patrick Mahomes, Chris Jones Lead Six Chiefs on PFWA All-NFL, All-AFC Teams | Chiefswire

Omenihu, 25, was arrested in San Jose after police were called to a home to investigate a domestic violence report. When they arrived, Omenihu’s girlfriend, whose name is being withheld, alleged that Omenihu had pushed her to the ground during an argument. According to the police, she complained of pain in her arm, but declined to seek medical treatment, and the officers claim to have seen no visible injuries.
Us being underdogs at home for the AFCCG needs to be bulletin board material for the defense. They Don’t Respect You!!!
except the Bengals keep playing the “they don’t respect us” card …
FANS can play whatever they want (how long did Chiefs Kingdom shout the “no respect” thing? years!)
players just need to do one thing: bring it for game time
ohhhhh NOW I get it!
Good stuff, Snafu …
is it game time yet? 😉
Cheffers fucking up our chances for a super bowl
LOL
what????
He’s the fucking ref. POS. Why?
for CIN- KC game?
well, just don’t do anything stupid and all should be fine
I know his crew throws a lotta flags, as long as it’s even – flags on both teams – it should balance out
No. Saw a graphic, I will try to find. He’s thrown way more against us. “Flags on both teams” isn’t write accurate, if this graphic is true
Ok.
# of penalties against us from 2018 on (rank) by Cheffers crews
2018: 15th (not bad)
2019: 5th
2020: 1st (3 games, avg 10.3 a game against us)
2021: 2nd (SF #1, 3 game vs our 2, but both avg 7/gm)
2022: 3rd
His crews avg about 8.2 penalties against a team per game
His faves: False start (probably everyones), Off. Holding, DPI, Unnecessary roughness, Def Holding. Only 6 Roughing the Passer, and at lest one was pure bullshit.

I just came to verify. Great. So even if we get there, were screwed.
Yep. I want to beat the smug off of Joe Burrow on Sunday, but I’m not optimistic that we will be given a fair shot at the Super Bowl if we get the win this week.
thought i read Tobert was the ref
That is Sunday. Cheffers is the next game.
i missed the superbowl connection when reading the comments. damn this old age sucks
uh…if you look at the link below it pretty clearly states that its Tobert.
That’s what I said?
Bengals: Tobert
Chiefs in SB: Cheffers
FWIW: have to win THIS weekend’s game first …
One. Step. At. A. Time.
Just manifest it, please.
So is Lammons the reason for the pour tackling on kickoffs? I just wonder why we are cutting a guy with so many ST reps?
Making room for IR returns. Why him, not sure, but I expect he’ll be right back
I assume they think he’s the least likely to be claimed by another team, and he can still be elevated on gameday if the numbers work out OK. I’ll be interested to see if the Chiefs have 3 QBs active on Sunday.
Aaaaaand the Bengals picked him up.
But just to keep him from being able to play in the playoffs. That’s one of the most classless moves I’ve ever seen a football team make. Guy practices and plays all year to get a shot to play in the playoffs and the Bengals screw him over just for the hell of it. I think it’s crap. It’s not a strategic move against the Chiefs as it is just screwing over a player.
I hope the Chiefs present him his Super Bowl ring in the Bengals locker room.

Not Football – just FLAT OUT DUMB!
M&M’s puts spokescandies on “indefinite pause” in wake of uproar over changes to green M&M
This is the society we live in. Peeps get offended by the color of f*cking candy M&M’s!! What a weak-minded society USA has become!!!
.
Offended by colors of f*cking candy!!!
IT IS, WHAT IT IS!!!
.
.
If or WHEN the electrical grid goes down OR whatever next – major unforeseen event – happens. The peeps that bitch about colors of candy & other NONSENSE topics will be the FIRST TO – GO BYE BYE. WEAK-MINDED!
.
Same peeps that can’t hunt, live off the land, do what needs to be done.
What? they are recalling Peeps candies?
Do NOT mess with Peeps.
Except those root beer flavored ones. Mess away. Bleah.
Remember kids: everything is outrage!
What makes this worse is that it wasn’t the color of the candy it was the tennis shoes they were wearing.
I fully agree with you, but it wasn’t the “color” of the candies that bothered people. It was the apparent drift to make them “inclusive”.
1) It’s candy. People need to get a damn grip
2) It’s candy. It doesn’t need to make social commentary. Not everything needs to be a platform.
3) It’s candy. Why does it bother you so that one has high heels or sneakers or is Asian? Protecting your kids? Give me a break. From candy? The Progressive ad with the two guys in bathrobes and a new cat must send you into convulsions.
That said, I’m disappointed in Mars for caving. I think it was a silly, needless drift into social commentary by a company, but once there, stand firm. There wasn’t anything “wrong” with it
Angertainment
Two more mass shootings and candy is the issue? K.
IKR?
People also decided to boycott Pink Floyd last week because of Floyd’s “new rainbow” artwork on their 50th anniversary Dark Side of the Moon release. They were deemed too LGBT friendly. Seriously.
yup … too much “anti-wokeness” and hate
Please… No Skyy Moore @ PR … : )
… but 47 Million watched the DAL v SF game
For the betting peeps….Super Bowl favorites heading into the Conference Finals.
Heading into the conference finals, the Cincinnati Bengals and the Kansas City Chiefs are considered the co-favorites to win the Super Bowl with Unibet. Each of those teams is listed at +250 (5/2) to win outright.

always important – Ref for Sunday game
https://www.kshb.com/sports/how-chiefs-fare-when-afc-championship-game-referee-ron-torbert-officiates
The Chiefs lost four of the first five games played with Torbert as the referee, but have won three of their four Tobert-refereed games since 2017.
Kansas City’s only win with Torbert refereeing during his first three seasons came in the only Chiefs postseason game he has officiated, a 30-0 trouncing of Houston in the AFC Wild Card round.
Different source: According to Pro Football Reference, home teams win 62.5 percent of the game’s Tobert calls this season (league average is 56 percent). His crew calls 10.75 penalties per game on average.
He reffed the SB last year. Bengals fans will be screaming
Like breakdown videos
That must be one ugly face…
Maybe, but that’s on older face, to be sure. In her 60s, I’d bet
NTTAWWT. Right up my alley
you’re too old.. you’re looking at a cougar there… the funny part is that the way she’s holding the paper, its upside down to her.
Good catch. I was too busy noticing the hands
I think after all the observations, she’d not drinking her morning coffee. Its her morning geritol. Therefore we need a replacement morning coffee.
not quite the cups I was thinking of.
might be a GUY – always look at the hands lol lol
Some of the AG peeps
Like that it might be a GUY hahahahaha (putt from the rough)
I am up early today. It’s 530 am
Thanks Snafu
GO Chiefs!
