This week in Chiefs talk
The shows spent the week debating the Chiefs' direction after Mahomes' ACL injury and offseason changes. There's real disagreement in the media about Kansas City's 2026 outlook, with some analysts picking a Mahomes bounce-back while others favor the Broncos to win the AFC West. The talk keeps coming back to the left tackle situation, Kelce's role, and whether new defensive pieces and Kenneth Walker can make up for a gutted roster.
