Maybe we could throw this out there for discussion:
Brady's played in just seven career road playoff games i<inline style="outline: none; box-sizing: inherit; color: rgb(67, 67, 67); font-family: Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, nm-icons, sans-serif; font-size: 1em; background-color: initial;">n 15 seasons prior to 2018 and hasn't won a road playoff game since the 2006 season. Overall, Brady is 3-4 in postseason contests on the road.</inline>

C'mon now. The prediction I made in this thread regarding the Patriots is just that, a prediction.
I clearly realize I don't have a crystal ball and could be wrong. In fact, I'm one good Patriots performance away from it.
But with that being said, I like KC to win on Sunday. And I still like my prediction.
The game plan that Bill had vs the Chargers was masterful on both offense and defense. And Tommy executed his part almost perfectly.
Not to be surprised as Bill is the best coach in the history of the game.
I don't have the stats in front of me, but it seems like Reid has held his own vs Bill in head to head matchups. So the chess match will be fun to watch.
Who are the Patriots this season? The team that looked mortal at times? The team that went 3-5 on the road this year? Or the team that last weekend looked like the Patriots of old? Hmmmm...
Really looking forward to this one.
Just looked it up. I guess 6-2 isn't necessarily holding his own. But he has lit up the scoreboard against Bill recently.
Belichick owns the overall edge with a 6-2 record against Reid and 2-0 record against Reid in the NFL Playoffs. However, <inline style="outline: none; box-sizing: inherit; color: rgb(67, 67, 67); font-family: Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, nm-icons, sans-serif; font-size: 1em; background-color: initial;">Belichick has coached 342 games (postseason included) and only seven times have his teams allowed 40 points or more. Three of those instances came at the expense of Reid's offenses, in 2014, 2017, and 2018. </inline>

These guys all make millions of dollars doing something fun. I'll never feel sorry for any of them for losing a football game.
But you are right again. KC is clicking on all cylinders right now. They got the home playoff win monkey off their back. And they have New England at Arrowhead with a chance to go to the Super Bowl. I like them to win. They should win. And if they don't, Reid will deserve all the criticism he will get.
I think KC is going to score their points. It's hard for me to believe that New England will shut them down at home. I just cant see that happening.
The key is Brady against the KC defense. Will KC allow White to catch a million check down passes for 10 yards a pop this week like LA did?
Brady didn't throw the ball down field much at all last game. He didn't have to. Carved them up with RAC yards.
