Kansas City Chiefs vs Baltimore Ravens In NFL Season Opener! Who Ya' Got? [2/2 on Ep.163]

in terms of Seasons um we got the opener coming up the Kansas City Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens this is the season opener for the NFL I know who I'm picking I know who I think is going to win this but I got to know who are you rolling with for this first week matchup in the season opener between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens who are going to win that matchup oh man the NFL couldn't have cooked it up better with a opening game of the Chiefs and Ravens uh I'm going go with the Chiefs okay uh they have majority of the time they do have this Ravens team uh their number Patrick Mahomes normally gets the best of Lamar Jackson I like the Chiefs matching up defensively against the Ravens offense I like the match up uh Trent McDuffy matching up against Z flowers I think that's a good wide receiver quarterback matchup uh the Chiefs pass rush I think they're G to get home to Lamar Jackson and contain him in the pocket limit what he could do with his legs so I'm leaning towards the Chiefs I think it's going to be a very close game but I think their defense is going to be the reason why they win this game game yeah that's an underrated aspect bro their their defense was solid bro they had uh they were number two in defensive yards allowed last year right behind the Cleveland Browns but that was an underrated aspect of their defense just because I mean everything has always been so mahome focused um that people don't even pay attention to the other areas of their game but I was also going with the Kansas City Chiefs to win this game I I don't know why um but somewhere down the line my mind changed my mind changed and this this is why my mind changed so at first I'm like okay Kansas City Chief's going to win but then I'm like you know what let me remember this is the regular season this is the regular season and the Baltimore Ravens we know what they do in the regular season they look impeccable so I think coming out in week one the Ravens going to look dominant they going to want payback it's going to be grudges all of that they going to be fired up and they going to end up winning maybe not by much maybe not even at all but I'm I'm expecting the Baltimore Ravens to win um because they they went out so sorry against the Kansas City Chiefs last year in the playoffs so it's like they have to show themselves they have to be better than what everyone else remember them as because all last season we held them on a high pedestal we said they were number one we said this was the best football we've seen in a long time the best team roster wise in a long time and then they get to the playoffs they forget how to run the ball they forget the play call that works for them they play the Chiefs they fold like tissue like it was just insane to watch so I I'm really thinking that they come back out with a with a a different game plan and a more effective game plan um and I also think they'll utilize Derek Henry and it it may shake things up a little bit uh for them so it'll be interesting to see though um above all we know that the Chiefs about to go for this three Peak and I think they going to get it I think they're going to get it um they done picked up different options at the receiving end um they still got a solid defense and all these other things that's really working out in their favor it's just the fact that can they get it done so I got to ask you can the Chiefs get this done three peating for the first time in NFL history this is a tough question because I think they're capable of doing it but then I look at all these great teams that failed to do it I think about the 90s that have the Cowboys that dynasty failed to do it with Troy Amman Emma Smith Michael Irving then I think about the dynasty of the Patriots of Tom Brady Bill bich they couldn't do it so it's like I I don't want to say they can't but they can because Patrick Mahomes is so successful in the playoffs he's 15 and three in the postseason five straight AFC Championship appearances backtack Super Bowl champions it's like you can't go wrong with either right or wrong answer so I I I see that but I don't know I really don't know about this one yeah this one this was tough this was tough I I think Pat has surprised everybody so far um so early on in his career I think he gets it done bro I would love personally I would love to see it cuz I just want to see history in the making like I just think it would be dope 12 20 years from now you get to say man I seen the three peat when Pat Mahomes no quarterback is better than him like you know you get to be that old head that Standing Tall on what he seen happen so so like I want to see Pat Mahomes three Pat I think it would be the greatest thing ever to witness um but can it be done it's going to be tough cuz I mean Ravens everybody's tired of getting beat by Pat Mahomes especially in the AFC like he is the team to beat right now and everybody is pissed off I mean only person who's gotten past him was Joe bur right so yeah facts it's it's gonna be tough man and people gonna really put their money on Joe BR to get it done and uh I'mma leave it like this man um so we joined the fantasy league and when when do I do you know when I see you in that fantasy league bro uh I got to look at it I haven't looked at the schedule but everybody set them play each other at least one time before the playoffs start yeah I didn't really even get to see who was all in your squad cuz I was trying to look for it um but you know obviously I want to talk a little Trash make things fun but want to make things fun but I didn't even get to look at it but I'm looking forward to whatever week we play in Fantasy yeah and that week I might have to how you on here I might have to come on your platform and talk a little trash because I'm I'm hey man I'm looking for to winning I I feel like I got a squad at least from what I drafted but I see yeah I've seen you I've seen you what you drafted are you checking me out okay you seen the Christi mcaffrey of course we knew that was coming with the first pick yeah we knew that was coming would you and I'mma just say this cuz I I ain't gonna have you pull up your team and all of that who' you pick for your first pick in fantasy first pick I actually had a lot of ways I could have went because I had third the third pick I went with the rout of CD lamb I was crossed anxious moment just in case if he wasn't ready for week one with that contract situation so I was going to pick Tyreek Hill okay but my friend Ethan picked him second so I said I gotta just pull the trigger and get CD lamb okay but yeah he was my first pick okay all right I I get I got some confidence in that that that makes me think twice about when I play you cuz City hey City lamb gonna put up some numbers he gonna put up some numbers so no I'm I'm excited about that man um I think I got Jake the first round and oh man his Squad lowkey they already projected him to be a little bit better than mine but he got he got a little squad over there Joe burrow and Jamar Chase I'm like oh it's getting scary but but other than that man look um that's about all I have for you
