9-1
Kansas City Chiefs earn tough ninth win over Arizona Cardinals
The ninth win of the season was much tougher than expected for the Kansas City Chiefs, who struggled to put away a lowly Arizona Cardinals team in a 26-14 win at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday. The Cardinals came in with only two wins on the year in nine total games so far, but perhaps the very opening of the game served as an omen.

You decide . . .
He's a far more capable athlete, his numbers speak for themselves and when we look at passing distance, Len Dawson never would've come close if they were to compete at each other during the same time.
ReplyDeleteWe'll talk when Mahomes wins his Super Bowl but until then, the answer is: NO.
DeleteMahomes > Len Dawson
DeleteLen was 50 years ago. It's really a different game. There is no way the comparisons would be fair. Both were great QBs. Len got his Super Bowl and Patrick Mahomes is soon to get a new one. It's a win/win.
ReplyDeleteLen Dawson was in the NFL back when the QB wasn't protected by so many rules and is now basically just like a punter. Yes, the game has changed and Dawson had it much tougher and worked for far lower pay.
DeleteToday's players are pussies. Look at Len, smoking a Camel, sipping on a Sprite in between halves. No energy bar, no Gatorade, no one re-taping his legs, giving him a massage, no headphones, no sports psychologist, not bitching and complaining, just handling his business like a boss.
ReplyDeleteToday's player are pampered like little Yorkie yapper dogs.
Yesterday's game: real men
Today's game: total pussies
Don't know anything about football sorry.
ReplyDelete5:25, are you a 10 year-old girl? You posted just to say you know nothing about football?
ReplyDeleteLen won a Super Bowl, Patrick will have to win 2 Super Bowls to be rated better than Len ever was.
ReplyDeleteMahomes is talented and has the mojo, but there has been only one Lennie the Cool
ReplyDeleteRemember Lennie Dawson panty hose ?
ReplyDeleteThey will not run, they just fall down.
5:28 all I know is it looks like a bunch of jacked up guys running around chasing after a ball while beating each other up.
ReplyDeleteMuch love to Mahomes and his girlfriend stepfather and family. God bless you all.🌹
ReplyDeletePatrick Mahomes' girlfriend is his stepfather? THAT'S SICK!!!!
DeleteOh come the fuck on, TKC readers! Lenny will always be better than Mahomes on gambling. Speaking of, notice how we nabbed a stellar QB the same year St. Louis lost their team. Hmmmm... Eat it up, plebs.
ReplyDelete5:08 that’s a Fresca not a sprite!
ReplyDeleteIt is too bad that the Chefs will lose their first playoff game this year. Then we can say "49 consecutive years of bitter disappointment". Mahomes is good but the game Lenny played was a mans game, not a girly man's game where it's a penalty to touch the QB.
