BREAKING: NFL analyst gets slammed for saying Chiefs are ‘just really lucky’.

 

It feels weird to appreciate Colin Cowherd here but he’s right.

The Kansas City Chiefs have achieved a perfect 9-0 record so far this season.

with the latest win coming off an insane Leo Chenal-blocked field goal.

This razor-thin win also came on the heels of a Monday night victory in overtime. Much to the chagrin of Chiefs fans.

there haven’t been many easy victories. Still, they’ve all been victories.

After the latest close win over the Denver Broncos.

some are asking, “Are the Chiefs just lucky?” Actually, some aren’t even asking.

Take national radio commentator Jason McIntyre, co-host of the The Herd with Colin Cowherd. Earlier this week, he shamelessly said.

“The Chiefs are just really lucky.”

It feels weird to appreciate Colin Cowherd here but he’s right.

As happens frequently, this caught the annoyed ire of his boss, Cowherd, who shot back with, “You use luck way too much.

” before going on to show McIntyre how luck had nothing to do with the game-winning blocked kick.

J-Mac doubled down by joking that he saw Andy Reid pull a horseshoe out of his pants after the game.

Go ahead and file this under, “When Cowherd Was Right”.

because as other commentators demonstrated, the Chiefs were incredibly prepared and well-coached against Denver.

That’s what made the blocked kick so successful. Take ESPN’s Dan Orlovsky for example.

 

 

As we can see, McIntyre just can’t comprehend greatness.

This isn’t the first time he has talked down about the Chiefs either.

In fact, he regularly downplays how good Kansas City is, often in an attempt to irritate Cowherd.

Earlier this year I had to drag him for his thoughts on the Chiefs’ (pre-injury) wide receiving corps.

My favorite rebuttal by Cowherd to his young protégé had to be.

“Isn’t it ironic how Kansas City’s always the best team in the league when it matters on big plays.

You use luck too much. Luck doesn’t even exist.”

Luck might exist, but it wasn’t what won Kansas City that ball game.
