00:00Our focus, the Kansas City Chiefs. Why? They have Andy Reid. Why? They have Patrick Mahomes.

00:09Why? They have multiple Super Bowls under their belt. And also, Dubsy, they are a perfect

00:147-0 on the season. So let's take a look at Kansas City as a whole right now. 7-0, and

00:20you might think, like, wow, what are they dropping? 40 points a game here, Patrick Mahomes

00:23and that high octane offense? No, not necessarily. 24.7 points, which is okay. Giving up under

00:2920 points, which is fantastic. If you look at this football team as a whole, let's just

00:35take a look now, Dubsy. Are you impressed with, so far, what the Kansas City Chiefs

00:39have done on the season? Absolutely. They're not picking up any stall points, Donny, but

00:44the only statistic that matters is the win-loss, perfect, undefeated record. Nothing gets easier

00:51in search of a third consecutive Lombardi. I guess it's the intangibles that stand out

00:55for me. They continue to find ways to get those wins on Sunday afternoon. They've got

01:01some of the best minds in the business, Andy Reid, Spaggs, Patrick Mahomes, and they're

01:06a tough out. They can do it in a multitude of different ways. They continue to play with

01:10injuries. They're banged up, but Patrick Mahomes, I don't think we put enough credit on the

01:15star quarterback, just trying to get them downfield and get them back into the winners.

01:19So yeah, very impressed by the Kansas City Chiefs. Haven't looked the prettiest or the

01:23flashiest, but that doesn't matter. It's working.

01:26No, it certainly is working. Let's take a look at what they've done so far in those

01:30seven games. Beat the Ravens 27-20. That was a late game, toe out of bounds by a tight

01:35end, which could have led to a two-point conversion and a victory for the Ravens, but it didn't.

01:40The Bengals, late in that game, that pass interference call, they win by one point.

01:43You see the Falcons game, 22-17, close game. Chargers, 17-10, close game. Handled the Saints

01:49by two touchdowns, but then you have that game against the 49ers, win by double digits,

01:53and then technically a close game with the Raiders by seven points. So here's what we're

01:57building up to, Dubsy. That's a 7-0 record to start the season. Not since the 1972 Miami

02:03Dolphins as a team, cruised through the regular season unbeaten, and that 72 Dolphins team

02:08also ended up winning the Super Bowl. So buy or sell, the Kansas City Chiefs can go undefeated

02:16this season.

02:17Sell, sell, sell. The Kansas City Chiefs are not going through the regular season undefeated.

02:24It's not a thing. It's not possible. They don't have the horses. They don't have the

02:28cattle. I love Patty Mahomes, but I don't love him that much. I don't think they go

02:32through another round, another week of being undefeated. I think the buck stops with Tampa

02:37Bay and Baker Mayfield in the bucks. That's where I'm going with this one, Donnie.

02:41What?

02:42It's too tough. There's too much parity in the NFL. I know they've got this perfect

02:46record thus far, but they're just doing it in a dogfight, in an arm-wrestle style of

02:51way. I don't think that's going to be enough for them in trying to go up against some of

02:54these spirited, motivated teams with a bit more juice on the line. It's worked out in

02:59favor. They're going to be there. They're going to be there once it's all said and done

03:02at the big dance. But I think a team like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are getting

03:06set for Monday Night Football, this is where the loss comes, when you cannot run with that

03:10track meet. A team that's put up over 110 points in the last three weeks, Donnie, this

03:15is the cause for concern for me. So I'm selling it. What about you, Donnie? Buy or sell that

03:19the Chiefs continue this undefeated run?
