REASONS TO BE SCARED IN DIVISIONAL ROUND

NUMBER 3 – ANDREW LUCK

Most of the time when fans are watching games and they don’t have a tie to either team in the fight, they look at who the better coach is and who the better quarterback is. In this game, Andy Reid is the better coach. At quarterback, while Patrick Mahomes has had the better year, Andrew Luck is second in touchdown passes this season and has the experience in postseason play.

Luck got his team to the AFC Championship Game in the 2014 season and the season prior brought them back down 28 points to beat the Chiefs to advance to the Divisional Round. Point being, Luck has experienced success in the postseason and his team has nothing to lose this weekend.

Luck wasn’t perfect against the Texans, throwing for 222 yards and two touchdowns, but getting picked off once. He wasn’t sacked once and that’s going to be where the Chiefs have to dominant. Put pressure on Luck and make him uncomfortable.

If the Chiefs can do that, Luck will look human. They can’t let him be the better quarterback on Saturday. That needs to belong to Mahomes.
