Juju is only 27 years old. He isn't an old man. New England just didn't know how to use him. When New England released him the Chiefs immediately jumped to get him. They know his value.
Still mad we didn’t get him, but I’m convinced he’ll never come to Baltimore since he got to play with Big Ben. I respect it, and he clearly fits the mold of what Pat likes throwing to.
Thats debatable... The Chiefs are the reigning back to back Superbowl Champs, NFL Dynasty and 5-0... At this point it's cute the Vikings are 5-0 with Darnold... his game last week was more the Sam Darnold we all know.
@@BtwixedAs a diehard, I agree. We should be 9th. Defense is flawed with Marcus/Eddie/Malik playing horrid, and the offense needed big plays against Dallas and Cincy.
@AlanBaltimoreBirds Ideally yall pound Washington as expected and then top 5 would be justified. Arguably the best offense in the league (I'd argue my Vikings but that's just homerism) alone keeps you top 10. Although I feel like yall should run the ball more
Hey Rich, I’m new to your channel. I just wanted to say I really like your show. I knew you a smidge from the combine, but discovered you on a much more fun forum here. Your call of the Jets game by the way was really really good. Like the show at home vs across the pond but all good. I was mainly a herd watcher, but your channel is awesome. You have a new sub!
For those who keep mentioning the refs helping the chiefs; you could put together a COMPILATION video of all the bad calls that have gone AGAINST Kansas 😂 yall just ignore those calls though and only pay attention to when calls are in the chiefs favor. There’s bad calls every single nfl game but yall just acknowledge the ones you want cuz you want a reason to hate a team that’s been dominating the league for 5 years. And this is coming from a bears fan. Quit crying
ill take a back who rips thru the 12 mediocre defenses during the season, is shut down twice in the remaining two of five games and rips a couple of 40-60 yarders in the other three defenses he faces.......... THAT IS A TOP TEN back in this league........
Thats basically every runningback, thats why theyre great defences. Not everyone can lay down a 200 yd game against prime LOB like AP, and there is no back that can do it often. The mark of great defense starts with the run game.
AFC is very top-heavy (Texans, Cheifs, Ravens). NFC is more balanced throughout. The best AFC teams are still better than the best NFC teams, and the worst AFC teams are still better than the worst NFC teams, but the Browns are doing their best to stop that.
I have no problem with the Chiefs over the Vikings, but this was the first game KC has actually handled an opponent, whereas the Vikings have controlled all of their games outside of this last one. They’ve only trailed for 3 minutes all season, showing that they control teams. Don’t get me wrong, my money would be on the Cheifs, but as a Vikings fan I’m just trying to enjoy being close to the top during an unexpected season.
@@Btwixed Which you can say about anyone that has more than one loss. Who has anyone beat? Packers losses are to Philly (which was close and Philly is just off this list too) and Minnesota. You play the games you are given. Minnesota is playing a 3rd place schedule. By your argument, they've only played 1 good team so then "WHO HAVE THEY BEATEN". Dumbest argument. The only argument you should have given was "He said 7-10 could be plenty of teams".
@tervalas All that just to say the packers have beaten 3 non playoff teams. Lol. The Vikings have wins vs the 49ers, Texans, and Packers on the road. Go throw some money on the niners missing the playoffs see how far that gets you.
Rich, you can’t in good conscience , put any team in a power ranking because you think they “should’ve won” any game they Lost!! That’s not how it works my friend!!
The problem with that statement is it's too early in the year to tell if most teams are "someone" or not. They've only lost 1 time and have been blowing out teams. You have to assume they're decent when they're scoring 30+ points a game.
@RedMage117 there are multiple advanced historical stats that the Vikings are a super bowl team this year after only 5 games. --- you can definitely tell something in terms of margin of victory, SOV, scoring defense / offense, etc.
Might be flipping the Ravens and Commanders, and Cowboys and Lions after this weekend. No changes at the top though with the Chiefs and Vikes both on bye.
@@hugoastacio4971 you clearly didn't see that game at all. The Ravens barely won because of a botched snap regardless of who the other team was. Also they were losing the whole game so what's that say about them?
@@KMI0588 losing the whole game and still won? Bengals can’t even keep a 10pt lead in the 4th. What does that say about them? Oh yeah, 1-4 says plenty.
@@hugoastacio4971 Lol I can see that you want to blow the whole Ravens team but you're missing the point. I never said the Bengals are great only the Ravens got lucky to win that game. If the Bengals are as bad as you say then the Ravens should have blown them out and not had to rely on bad playing call in OT and a botched kick hold.
@hamburglar83 The Commanders beat the teams they were supposed to. How would you put the Ravens ahead of them when they lost at home to the Raiders? You say the Commanders beat nobodies, but the Ravens lost to a nobody. Make it make sense. 😂
As a Packer fan, feel like we need to clean up run defense and have our offense show more of their full potential before we deserve a spot. Dallas at 10 is surprising though
Id put Vikings at 1 over Chiefs because watching the Chiefs games these past few weeks have been incredibly boring. It's embarrassing if baseball is more interesting to watch than the Chiefs.
I'm still not buying Chiefs at #1 despite the record. Two wins basically by luck, and Mahomes's stats are average at best. 1235yds 6td/6int. Echoes of the 2020 Steelers. A paper tiger with 12 straight wins and an early playoff exit.
Why not, you may not agree with it but they're back to back super bowl champs and are 5-0 and offense is startin to take off w/o Rice, Brown, or Pacheco. Stats dont win Lombardi's
The Washington Commodes are not a top ten team - they have beaten no one with a defense. This team is a mirage and that QB is really a running back and has not been challenged. And he will and he will fail miserably. I'd put them at 16.
@@Btwixed What did you agree with? The highest ranked defense Washington beat was the Giants who are ranked 12th in the league. The Ravens defense is ranked 19th. So you believe Washington beating the Giants is a bigger win than if we beat the Ravens Sunday? 😂
@DoctorDoom84 I mean washington has beaten a bunch of bad teams I could see why someone would say they aren't top 10, you realize a team also plays defense right? Holy bad take
How long before "The NFL scripts who wins and loses every week thru their inept Ref's" becomes a head line... would have never guessed the Chiefs would be number one 🙄
@@woad1987 you act like there aren’t other teams to watch. And knowing what bad football is is part of knowing ball. I watch for football. Chiefs fans watch to catch a glimpse of Taylor Swift. We are not the same.
@@DetroitLionsDynasty Im guessing you're young. Because if you knew football at all, you would know that before we got Andy Reid, we were just the AFC Lions for five decades. But by all means stay jealous of the champs.
