Arrowhead Addict: A Kansas City Chiefs Podcast

The Chiefs lost to the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday afternoon in what amounted to a preseason game for Kansas City.

I know.

I wanted the Chiefs' backups to win, too. 15-1 would have been cool. But 14-2 ain't bad, either.

The Chiefs rested their starters so guys could heal up and avoid injury. Unfortunately, Kansas City couldn't rest everyone. Promising rookie, Willie Gay, left with an injury and did not return. While he isn't a starter, Gay brings a tremendous amount of athletism to a decidedly not athletic Chiefs linebacking group. Let's hope he is ok.

On this week's Arrowhead Addict podcast, we will break down some of the performances from today's meaningless game and set the stage for the AFC Playoffs.

When the Chiefs square off against the upstart Miami Dolphins this Sunday should Kansas City be ready for surprises?

The Chiefs have a big game this weekend. They will be playing a really interesting team in the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins are currently 8-4 so on the surface, it appears the Chiefs are going to be playing a formidable foe. Look a little bit closer, however, and you will see Miami has benefitted from a soft schedule, including two games against the Jets. The other interesting thing about the Dolphins is that they have gotten to 8-4 by using two quarterbacks. While veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick started the season, Miami has turned the offense over to their future franchise QB Tua Tagovailoa. A few weeks ago, however, in a loss to the Broncos, the Dolphins temporarily benched Tagovailoa and brought in Fitzpatrick hoping to create a spark. It nearly worked but the Dolphins fell just short.

Should the Chiefs prepare to face both Tagovailoa and Fitzpatrick? How strong is this Dolphins team really? We talk about all that and more in the latest episode of the Arrowhead Addict podcast. Dive in!

The Kansas City Chiefs beat the Denver Broncos 22-16 in a game many fans found extremely frustrating.

It is a mark of just how good the Chiefs have become that we fans get annoyed by only beating the Broncos by six points. That was a weird game. Truth be told, I never got too worried. The Chiefs have Patrick Mahomes and the other guys don't. I never believed Drew Lock could out-gun Patrick Mahomes. Still, there were some untimely penalties, nears misses and the Chiefs also scored a touchdown that nobody knew was actually a touchdown until it was too late.

The Chiefs won anyway like they always seem to do. Why? Because the Chiefs are great. Kansas City has lost one game in the last calendar year! The team is 11-1, has clinched a playoff spot, and has all but clinched another AFC West title. So it is ok to be annoyed when the team doesn't play up to their own incredibly high standards. Just make sure to take a deep breath and have a little perspective.

This week on the Arrowhead Addict podcast, Matt Verderame and myself break down the Chiefs' 11th victory of the season. We also discover from one of our listeners that there is a place in Iowa that puts Chinese food on pizza and we are very intrigued. All that and more. Dive in!

Please make sure you are subscribed to the Arrowhead Addict podcast so you don't miss any of the fun. We also do fairly frequent giveaways so you want to make sure you get in on that. Lastly, it would mean a lot to us if you would head on over to Apple Podcasts to leave us a written review.
