No one believes in the Kansas City Chiefs, including Chris Simms.
Simms declared the Chiefs as the only home team guaranteed to lose on Monday in a video for Bleacher Report. Here’s what he had to say.
"‘At the end of the day Brady has a few more weapons than Alex Smith. Alex Smith is depleted of weapons on the offensive side of the ball for the Chiefs.”"
It is hard to knock Simms for this thought if Jamaal Charles and De’Anthony Thomas do not play on Monday night. But if Charles and Thomas do play and then you throw in Dwayne Bowe and Travis Kelce then I don’t know how you could say the Chiefs are not somewhat close in ‘weaponry’ to the Patriots.
Am I being a homer with that evaluation? Probably. But I don’t think the return of one of the five best non-quarterback offensive players in football plus Knile Davis plus Travis Kelce plus potentially DAT could do some damage against a Patriots defense that’s not so strong in the secondary and not known for speed.
Will the Chiefs win on Monday? I don’t know, but I don’t think it is a guaranteed loss.
(P.S. In my heart, I think the Chiefs are going to win.)
