Will the Chiefs actually regress in 2025?

Video Transcript
Give me a Super Bowl caliber team that you're boom or bust on.
Oh, I'm gonna do this again.
I, and I, it's so dumb when I do it, and I do it all the time, but, uh, I'm not a very smart man.
I don't learn from my mistakes.
The Kansas City Chiefs are gonna regress, right?
Like, let's think about last year.
We all remember they were winning every close game.
They caught every break any team could possibly catch.
They set an NFL record with consecutive wins in one score games.
Uh, I don't think they, I don't want to sit here and say they were exposed in the Super Bowl.
They played a really good team and just had a bad day, and I, I don't think that that was indicative of who the Chiefs are.
But all of a sudden now, Rashee Rice, his suspension might be back on the table, and Travis Kelce is getting older.
Chris Jones is getting older, as great as he's been.
Throughout this Chiefs' run, uh, I think 9 straight division titles, how often has there been a good second team in the AFC West?
And the answer is pretty rarely.
I think there's two now.
We can debate whether you like the Broncos or Chargers more to compete with the Chiefs in this division.
Maybe the answer is both.
I like the Chargers.
Others prefer the Broncos, but I think you're going to get, again, these two teams did make the playoffs last year.
I think you're gonna get both of those teams kind of nipping at the Chiefs' heels this year.
I think we're gonna look up in December and say, wow, the Chiefs could be a wild card team this year because the Broncos and Chargers are right there with them.
I, I feel like the Chargers are a 10-win team and the Broncos are a 10-win team, and the Chiefs are a 13-win team.
I can get the Chiefs down to like 12 and 5, and maybe that will feel like tremendous regression, but I don't know, man.
Like I just, I have a hard time betting against them.
I, I just think that, again, the bust for the Chiefs is you, you, you are a wild card team and maybe, you know, you go on the road, Buffalo week one or Ravens week wild card weekend, and you lose.
That's a bust for them.
Uh, I think if some of these breaks don't go their way, all of a sudden we're looking and saying, oh wow, they they have to go on the road week one.
This is the first time ever for the Chiefs as a wildcard in the playoffs here.
I think that's on the table.

Messi, Alba risk ban after MLS All-Star game withdrawal
Lionel Messi and Inter Miami team-mate Jordi Alba could face a suspension after withdrawing from Major League Soccer's All-Star game. Argentina superstar Messi and Alba had been due to start for a combined MLS team which will face a squad representing Mexico's Liga-MX in Austin later Wednesday. However a league source said Inter Miami had notified officials on Wednesday that both Messi and Alba had been pulled from the event. Under MLS rules, both Messi and Alba could be given a one-game suspension unless they have a valid reason for the withdrawal, such as an injury. A league source told AFP however no decision on possible disciplinary action would be taken until MLS officials had spoken to Inter Miami to confirm the circumstances of the withdrawal. The duo's participation in Wednesday's mid-season exhibition game had been under a cloud after Miami coach Javier Mascherano indicated at the weekend he wanted Messi and Alba to rest. "The players are called up. I'd prefer they rest, but it's not my decision," Mascherano said. "I know how important the All-Star Game is, and as far as I know, there's no decision from the club - everything continues as normal." Both Messi, 38, and Alba, 36, have a history of recent injury problems while Inter Miami has faced a gruelling schedule which included participation in the recent FIFA Club World Cup. rcw/ea
