00:00But at 15 and one number one overall seed locked up completely truly in every way imaginable

00:07meaningless game

00:08You're not gonna see my homes Carson Wentz and and company it who knows like Kelsey may not play

00:14I don't know what all of this is gonna look like just yet

00:16But a guy who could tip his hand just a little is the head coach Andy Reed. Oh, yeah when I first got

00:23Became a head coach and I first time I had a chance to get in the playoffs

00:30I've learned some things since then I

00:33You know, I know that you've got us to keep yourself

00:37Relative with what practices and make sure that you stay sharp and

00:43You don't want to get too far away from it in the playoffs because

00:47Excuse me. Everything gets a little bit faster in the playoffs every level that you go up

00:51So you've got to make sure that you and it's single elimination. You have to make sure your games

00:57The peak each time you play

01:01You know Joe I'm in agreement with everything that Andy Reed just said if I am

01:08the Los Angeles Chargers

01:11But I'm not I'm the Kansas City Chiefs and I've won back-to-back Super Bowls, I know what it takes I'm good rest guys

01:18Bubble wrap guys nothing about week 18 matters

01:20You get the bye week go to Cancun have some practices after your long weekend do whatever it is

01:26You're gonna do and then watch TV during wildcard weekend and be ready for the divisional round. I'm a Patriots fan

01:32You're a Patriots fan. We saw how this worked under Belichick and Brady for 20 years didn't always win the Super Bowl

01:39But it was all but guaranteed that they'd get to the AFC title game

01:43And the reason for that is they knew what this time of year meant

01:47Yeah, and there's an extra week you have to contend for to write that bill Belichick and those teams did not so it is a

01:54marathon of a season now in the NFL so

01:57The good news is at least you can take these last couple weeks with Hollywood Brown and Isaiah Pacheco

02:02And some healthy guys and you have Hopkins working a little bit better now now all of a sudden you have a Chiefs offense

02:07It's starting to look a little bit more like a Chiefs offense. Yeah. Sure. Travis Kelsey's lost a step or two

02:12He's still a useful player and the Chiefs. I think are a team that

02:16Has really been beaten and bruised quite a bit

02:20So what's nice is at least you have the last couple games where you have Mahomes especially last week throwing for 300 yards, right?

02:26How many 300 yard games is Patrick Mahomes had this year how many right statistically speaking, you know

02:31This is not a great season for Patrick Mahomes a guy who was prolific throwing for 5,000 yards and 50 touchdowns

02:37well that guy hasn't been around recently because

02:40Unfortunately, they haven't given him enough weapons to work with but all of a sudden, you know, it's funny

02:44You give a good quarterback some weapons to work with they're healthy and next thing, you know

02:48All of a sudden the offense looks much better

02:49So if Andy Reid thinks that he could figure this out with rest competitive practice proper game planning, I think it's a good idea

02:56I would expect if it's two weeks off here for the Chiefs that they might come out flat in that first quarter depending on who

03:02That matchup is so watch that very carefully

03:04It's something you could take advantage of too as a wager as well where maybe you're looking in that first quarter

03:09Maybe you're looking at the Chiefs to be behind just because they might or maybe you know

03:12The under in that first quarter because you're getting an opportunity where maybe that team is just a little flat

03:16We see that all the time and then eventually you hope that they pick things up

03:20but look the road to the Super Bowl goes through Kansas City for a couple games and that is a road that I think Andy

03:25Reid is very comfortable driving on
