Why Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is the NFL’s best

Travis Kelce has dethroned Rob Gronkowski as the best tight end in the National Football League. The 6’6”, twenty-seven-year-old from the University of Cincinnati has become quite the household name. Since being selected in the third round of the 2013 NFL draft by the Kansas City Chiefs, Kelce has performed since he has been on the field. In Kelce’s rookie year, he was placed on the injured reserve with a knee injury, but in 2014 he racked up 67 receptions for 862 yards and five...

The Marcus Peters-Keenan Allen beef revisited

The Marcus Peters-Keenan Allen beef returns this weekend. This beef history goes back to Week 1 when the Chiefs were playing the Chargers.

Allen started off pretty well against Peters in Week 1 last year before he was hurt and had to leave the game. That injury ended his season but we remembered the little rivalry it seemed they had going on the field.

Then last December when the Chiefs were playing the Chargers again, Allen tweeted out, “I know who happy I'm not playing this week! Haha...

Justin Houston is sick, won’t practice for the Chiefs

We just noted that the Kansas City Chiefs are pretty healthy with Mitch Morse the only one not practicing on Wednesday. So of course the Chiefs add their best player to the injury report the next day. Justin Houston won’t practice on Thursday because he’s sick.

Justin Houston is sick and won't practice today for the #Chiefs.

Unless he has the plague or something, I would expect him to be out there on Sunday when it counts until told...

Chiefs-Raiders still looking like one of the best games on the schedule

I said it before the season and it’s still true today The best game on the Chiefs 2017 schedule is the first Raider game in Oakland. Thursday night games suck, that’s true. But this one will put two of the best teams in the AFC against each other.

It’s not just me either. ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith said you have to wait to see the Chiefs play the Raiders before figuring out who they are. And he might go to the game and find out.

“You know me, I’m allergic to the cold weather,”...

Chiefs vs. Chargers: 5 questions with the enemy

I am still calling them the San Diego Chargers so meet Richard Wade from our San Diego Chargers blog, Bolts From The Blue. I asked Richard five questions about Sunday’s Chiefs-Chargers game and he gave me some answers.

It seems like the Chargers have a lot of weapons on offense. How would you rank the top three?

BFTB: The Chargers' top weapon at this point in time has to be Melvin Gordon. He is an effective runner. He has solid receiving skills and is dangerous in the open field. And he...

Chiefs’ Alex Smith has never seen the AFC West like this

KC Chiefs QB Alex Smith said this offseason that the AFC West is “loaded”. Two games into the season and he hasn’t changed his mind. The Chiefs QB spoke with the KC media on Wednesday and when asked about the AFC West he talked about how tough of a division it is right now.

“The division games are always big,” Alex said. “I just think this division, the parity from top to bottom is so crazy. Everyone is playing at such a high level. I don’t know if I have ever seen anything...

Andy Reid gives John Dorsey credit for Kareem Hunt

Andy Reid was asked what he saw in Kareem Hunt that made him think he could fit into the Chiefs offense, especially the passing game.

“Listen, Dorsey gets credit for that,” Reid said.

Dorsey is the Chiefs former GM repalced by Brett Veach. Imagine having a co-worker who was fired and then you hear your boss praising them after they were fired. That’s basically what this situation is (especially if your friend is an NFL GM).

“I just saw (Hunt) on Thursday nights, sitting in my office...

Chiefs’ Wednesday injury report: No practice for Mitch Morse | Chiefs Wire

Chiefs coach Andy Reid said they’re taking it “day-by-day” with Morse. Recovery time for a foot sprain is generally around two to four weeks. In the meantime, Zach Fulton will start in Morse’s place.

Rivers remains upbeat despite Chargers' frustrating start | AP

“We have 14 games left, and I just know the years we have been on runs,” Rivers said Wednesday. “We were 3-1 one year and went to 3-2 and then...

Mitch Morse is the only Chief not practicing

It’s hard to say the Kansas City Chiefs are having good injury luck just a few weeks after Spencer Ware went down but they’re pretty healthy otherwise. The Chiefs announced their Wednesday practice report and said that center Mitch Morse is the only one not practicing.

Morse, of course (a horse of course), went down on Sunday with what the Chiefs are calling a foot sprain. It was reported by the Star and NFL dot com that he would miss a few weeks of time.

In the meantime, Zach Fulton...

The Raiders have better Super Bowl odds than the Chiefs and it is very annoying

Bovada releases updated Super Bowl odds every once in a while and lately the Oakland Raiders have regularly been ahead of the Kansas City Chiefs. I know these are Super Bowl odds that don’t matter and it shouldn’t bother me.

The Chiefs are one of the three AFC West teams with the best Super Bowl odds in the AFC. The Patriots are at the top followed by the Steelers and then the Raiders. The Chiefs are further down the list but still ahead of the Broncos.

Yeah, it kinda bugs me that the...
