Chiefs gonna forfeit?

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs were stranded at Kansas City International Airport on Saturday as an ice storm shut down operations, preventing their chartered jet from departing for their game against the Broncos on Sunday in Denver.

The Chiefs tried to move up the flight as the weather, which had been predicted all week, bared down on Kansas City. But the plane they were expected to use was delayed in arriving, so the team had to stick with its mid-afternoon departure.

The airport announced at 2:50 p.m. CDT that it had closed all flight operations due to “rapid ice accumulation.” It was unclear when the Chiefs would be able to depart, though a break was expected between the end of the icy rain that had fallen during the afternoon and a thick line of heavy snow that was expected to begin in the evening and last through Sunday.

Chiefs got out after a 4 hour delay.

[Fritz]

The entire city of Detroit will be locked in to the Lions-Vikes game tonight in Detroit.

Perfect opportunity for me to go on a crime spree.

Bullshit. You mean it is your chance to go to the strip club and have all their attentions to yourself.

[MadtownPacker]

Chiefs got out after a 4 hour delay.Would have been a great excuse to get a double bye.

[Joemailman]

Would have been a great excuse to get a double bye.

Probably would have cost them millions though. Imagine Denver would have had to give refunds to ticket buyers and would have expected to be reimbursed by Chiefs.

Yeah I guess that would be the case but can’t Denver get in with a win? Sounds like a fair trade. :lol:

[MadtownPacker]

Wrong thread

[Fritz]

And the Cowboys beating the Slutmanders while the Packers diddle themselves.

[King Friday]

Bucs really laying an egg when they need to win.

[George Cumby]

Steelers looked bad last night. Russel Wilson is done.

[MadtownPacker]

I hate ole Russ as much as anyone but he still has enough sneaky shit left to win a playoff game.

[MadtownPacker]

Good for Mike Evans he has been a great WR for a long time.

[King Friday]

It was great to see for Mike…and one of the reasons I like Baker Mayfield. There was no way he would allow the coaches to not give Mike a chance there. Evans reminds me of Steve Largent. Dependable week in and week out even if he’s not flashy or uber skilled.

[MadtownPacker]

Who do we hate more tonight? I can’t pick!

[Guiness]

Vikings kicker with a muffed kickoff, handing the lions an easy 3 points going into the locker room

[Guiness]

By my count the Vikings have had 11 attempts from inside the 5 without getting a TD.

[Joemailman]

Neither Goff nor Darnold look very good tonight.

[mgordo]

Neither Goff nor Darnold look very good tonight.

This is what happens when pressure is applied. GB should take note.

[MadtownPacker]

By my count the Vikings have had 11 attempts from inside the 5 without getting a TD.
Getting stifled by lions. Kinda surprised to see.

[call_me_ishmael]

I think Goff is low key pretty dang good these days. He’s underrated. These Lions are so inspiring

[Fosco33]

We’re not nearly as crisp, physical or gutsy as either of these teams

[MadtownPacker]

I think Goff is low key pretty dang good these days. He’s underrated. These Lions are so inspiringGet bent you sorry ass! What the hell kind of fan are you?

Here’s what Fritz will do to you:

[call_me_ishmael]

I call 'em like I see 'em. Those boys get after the QB and play hair-on-fire every play. Their backups are better than our starters.
