Roughing the Kicker

On this edition of Roughing the Kicker and Sports Sunday on Sports Radio 810 WHB, Joshua Brisco dismisses the idea of the Chiefs taking a wide receiver in the first round of the upcoming NFL Draft and explains why Tyreek Hill is a viable #1 WR option in the NFL.

On this episode of Roughing the Kicker, Joshua Brisco discusses the Chiefs fanbase that accepts mediocrity too easily, discusses why the Chiefs are a perfect fit for an incoming young quarterback, explains why Chiefs fans should not want to see Tony Romo in Denver and much more.

On this episode of Roughing the Kicker, Joshua Brisco discusses the possibility of Joe Mixon coming to Kansas City, the future of the quarterback position and the new contracts for Eric Berry and LDT.

Joe Mixon’s off-the-field issues will surely cost him in the NFL Draft, but will the Chiefs be one of the teams to let him slide? He’s a perfect fit for Andy Reid, but what about the locker room?

Eric Berry and Laurent Duvernay-Tardif signed new massive contracts, but each got paid with very different intentions. Should fans be concerned about what Berry and LDT will bring in the future?

It’s time for the Chiefs to draft a quarterback early, and it’s so obvious that even the Chiefs have all but admitted it.

All that and more on this episode of Roughing the Kicker!

On this episode of Roughing the Kicker, Joshua Brisco says that the Chiefs must finally gamble at the quarterback position, but what's the best option for KC? Signing Tony Romo or drafting two quarterbacks in 2017?

Plus, a response to the pushback on last week's Colin Kaepernick conversation, including a reevaluation of Tyreek Hill and potentially looking ahead at Joe Mixon. Also, some hope about Andy Reid's ability to look to the future in the draft.

On this episode of the Roughing the Kicker Chiefs podcast, Joshua Brisco discusses why Tony Romo may be an option for the Chiefs and what KC is primed to do with Eric Berry and Dontari Poe. Then Matt Verderame of Arrowhead Addict joins the show to break down free agency and explains why the Chiefs must go quarterback in the first round of the draft.

On this episode of the Roughing the Kicker podcast, Joshua Brisco breaks down the Kansas City Chiefs' devastating loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The playoff loss should not be known as “the Eric Fisher game.” This is the 16-points-at-home game. The Fisher play was just the last thing that happened.

Blame for this game goes to the lack of offensive production, the failed rushing attack, never pressuring Big Ben, letting Le’Veon Bell control the game, taking seven minutes to score on the last drive or one of another thousand problems the Chiefs allowed on Sunday. Or most accurately, blame a little bit of all of those things.



On this episode of RTK, get a breakdown of everything that went wrong, how to try to fix those issues going forward, and I take a crack at a huge number of your takes and takeaways from this game.

As the Chiefs prepare for the Pittsburgh Steelers to come to town to fight for the right to go to the AFC Championship game, we must ask: Why will this time be any different?

On this episode of the Roughing the Kicker Chiefs podcast, Joshua Brisco breaks down every angle of the Chiefs-Steelers playoff game coming on Sunday.

When the Chiefs lost to the Steelers 43-14 in Week 4, it was never close. Going into the fourth quarter, the Steelers led 36-0. Why should this time be any different?

The Chiefs’ strengths have been found. The Steelers’ inconsistencies have been exploited.

The Steelers have the best QB-RB-WR trio in football. Why should we expect the Chiefs defense to put up a respectable effort? Look to this season.

The Steelers’ defense is suspect, but so is the Chiefs’ offense. Why should we think that Alex Smith will rise to the occasion in the playoffs? History.

In a game that promises to be icy, physical, intense and immensely entertaining, the Chiefs may just have the edge.

Plus, what's more important: stopping Le'Veon Bell or pressuring Ben Roethlisberger?

Also, the AFC West is undergoing major coaching changes and John Dorsey could be on his way out of Kansas City.

On this episode of the Roughing the Kicker Chiefs podcast, Joshua Brisco recaps the Chiefs’ win over the San Diego Chargers and KC’s return to the top of the AFC West.

The Chiefs have, in a very atypical way, reclaimed the division and will be taking a week off as the rest of the AFC battles for the right to come to Kansas City to try to dethrone the Chiefs in Arrowhead.

Alex Smith just played his best game of the season, I have total faith in the defense, the offense is firing on all cylinders for the first time all year, and optimism is flowing. Are we overreacting to an average win over a bad team, or is it time to start looking towards the Super Bowl?

On this episode of the Roughing the Kicker Chiefs podcast, Joshua Brisco looks ahead to Week 17 and talks about Chiefs-Chargers, Broncos-Raiders and the importance of the No. 2 seed for Kansas City.

No need to rush to your nearest sporting goods store to grab some orange and blue memorabilia, but Chiefs fans should be rooting all-out for the Broncos this Sunday. If the Chiefs take care of business in San Diego and the Broncos can hold off the Derek Carr-less Raiders, the Chiefs are looking at a bye week and a home game in the playoffs. 

But if the Chiefs don't get the two seed, what happens? Does it really matter?

Yes. Yes it absolutely does.

On this episode of RTK, hear how the Chiefs can keep the Chargers losing and why the Broncos will pull off the victory against the Oakland Raiders to send the Chiefs to the top of the AFC playoff picture.
