Coffee with the Chiefs – Dee Ford mania

Good morning, Addicts! The Kansas City Chiefs are off on Tuesday, getting a day to relax before taking on the Baltimore Ravens in M&T Bank Stadium. It will hopefully be their eighth consecutive win, something that is absolutely insane.

Here is the news you need to know:

Dee Ford shows the Chiefs more than we had seen – Seth Keysor of Arrowhead Pride

"I’m sorry I said a bunch of stuff about your ability against the run. I’m sorry I doubted that you’d be able to impact a game without a secondary rush. I’m even sorry I said a bunch of stuff about your lack of handfighting skills. Again, I have no illusions that you cared one bit that I wrote these things … but I know when it’s time for me to apologize to someone. Because if it weren’t for you, I don’t think the Chiefs win that game."

Dee Ford’s rise symbolizes all that is going well in Kansas City – Jeffri Chadiha of NFL.com

"The Chiefs may be celebrating Sunday’s 10-3 win over San Diego, but they are equally thrilled about Ford’s performance. He produced a career-high three sacks while also deflecting a potential game-tying touchdown pass to Chargers running back Danny Woodhead on the final play. It was the type of effort the Chiefs had expected from Ford at some point in his career. It just took a lot longer than anticipated for that magic to finally show up on a field."

Victory keeps Kansas City’s playoff hopes on schedule – Blair Kerkhoff of the Kansas City Star

"If the season ended today, the Chiefs would be the fifth seed, making them the top wild card team. They would open the playoffs at the winner of the South Division, which is a jumbled mess after the Colts were bombed by the Jaguars 51-16."
