Isaiah Pacheco should be the starting quarterback
Pete : “Clyde Edwards-Heller is having a great year and is doing everything you ask…I think Isaiah Pacheco might be the best player on the team and I think he might have to touch the ball first. .. Hard to say and I'm trying to stick with Pacheco and CEH… Clyde is having a great year and I think he deserves to touch the ball. I think Isaiah Pacheco is the best in the north and south, he is a good ball carrier on the team… I wouldn't prefer Pacheco over CEH I think the roles could be reversed here.
It was a great victory.
John : Tampa Bay is a great football team. I don't care if their record is 2-1. The Chiefs were 2-1. It is necessary to take into account how many points the defense lost. The defense is supposed to have given up a lot of points in this game. Well, they gave it to Tom Brady! Looking at what happened in that game, it's important to know that Tampa Bay is a good football team… The Chiefs beat them in a game they didn't know how dominant they were.
Persistence in defense
Pete : "Despite Sunday's offense, it's the Chiefs' defense that makes me feel like they're legitimate Super Bowl contenders again for the fifth straight year. The defense is the most cohesive unit on the team. … They're down 31 points – but it's Tom Brady, Mike Evans and Chris Godwin … L. Jarius Snead mentioned Tom Brady thinking he was invisible … Think about their pressure, put those quarterbacks on me — and George Karlaftis . and Chris Jones continue dominate – and the guys still lack that defense… Mike Dana will be back, Trent McDuffie will be back and Willie Gay will be back three games later… When was the last time? Do you think the Chiefs defense had a chance to be in the league's top 5 units?
Return of Trent McDuffie
John : What will that defense look like if Trent McDuffie comes back? The other players are gone — and they're still without those players … We know that when the secondary gets better, the pass rush gets better. So getting McDuffie back there — shutting people down in the few moments he had — could take him to the next level.
