Coffee with the Chiefs – Going after St. Louis?

Good morning, Addicts! I hope you enjoy the weekend with some really nice weather rolling in. It’s always nice to be able to get outside and take in some sunshine on a day off, whether it is to grill or simply take a walk through the park with a pooch.

There has been no developments with the Kansas City Chiefs in the last 24 hours, which might be a good thing after the Justin Houston fiasco earlier this week. Houston might be able to return in August, though, which would make all of us very happy.

Kansas City is hoping the schedule won’t be front-loaded with road gamesTerez Paylor of the Kansas City Star

"The Chiefs asked for three road games early last season to avoid conflicts with the American Royal, a fall NASCAR race and a Missouri-BYU college football game, which when combined with the annual conflicts caused by the Royals — their fellow Jackson County tenant — and a “home” game in London, led to the Chiefs playing only three home games before Nov. 29 in 2015."
