The matchup the Kansas City Chiefs have been waiting for

The Chiefs won’t become the elite team bandied around the National Football League until they claim one, against one, in their pursuit of the Lombardi trophy. They’ll find it impossible to shed the label of long-time franchise of futility if they can’t take care of business this weekend. Just showing up for the dance doesn’t demand the respect of the prom committee when it comes time to crown a new king.

The gaze of the NFL media is of no consequence to the future fortunes of this football team, but what might a victory do for the confidence of this young squad? Could it create the kind of confidence that could send them fearlessly into Gillette Stadium for an opportunity to secure Super Bowl silver? I think we all know the answer to that question.

So what’s it going to be, Kansas City? Will you prove you belong here on this stage or have we been sold yet another bill of goods by a team that can only produce under regular season lights?

Can Andy Reid and company take another step towards winning the first NFL championship this side of a Richard Nixon presidency or are the Chiefs still a handful of players away from competing with the best in the conference? Time will tell. For now, you can begin the discussion below in the comment section. As always, we appreciate your readership and support.

Until next time, Addicts!
