Arrowhead Addict: A Kansas City Chiefs Podcast

On Tuesdays with Sterling, Sterling Holmes and Josh Briscoe react to the Kansas City Chiefs trading for Colts wide receiver Josh Downs just before the NFL trade deadline, giving up a fourth- and fifth-round pick, and grade the move.

Sterling and Josh walk through the Chiefs’ separation numbers and why Downs gives Patrick Mahomes a receiver who can win on third down. They debate whether the price was fair for a player in the final year of his contract, why Brian Thomas Jr., Garrett Wilson and Justin Jefferson were never realistic, and what Downs could cost to extend. They also talk Brandon Aiyuk and Tyreek Hill, whether the Chiefs still needed an edge rusher or tackle, and finish with their trade grades and the question of how much Andy Reid will play him.

On Chiefs Group Chat, Matt Conner, Sterling Holmes and Bransen Gibson preview the Kansas City Chiefs’ trade deadline after the 35-12 win over the Jets, including whether Harrison Butker is done, the Xavier Worthy hamstring injury, Patrick Mahomes’ elbow and Andy Reid’s QB sneak comments.

Matt, Sterling and Bransen debate whether the Chiefs will cut Butker after another rough game and why signing Justin Tucker points toward a change. They rate their worry on Worthy, Mahomes and the tackle depth with “Conner’s Worry Meter,” then debate which positions the Chiefs should target at the deadline, from wide receiver to offensive line, linebacker and safety. They also discuss Reid’s press conference, with Matt explaining his “tenured professor” theory, and finish with the Golden Goose Contract: which players and coaches should be Chiefs for life.

On the Arrowhead Addict LIVE Postgame Show, Sterling Holmes, Adam Best and Bransen Gibson react to the Kansas City Chiefs’ 35-12 win over the New York Jets, from the Patrick Mahomes elbow scare to Chris Jones’ breakout game and what Xavier Worthy’s injury means for the trade deadline.

The Chiefs looked sluggish and missed two Harrison Butker field goals before Mahomes’ injury seemed to wake them up. The hosts debate why the second half looked so different, whether the Chiefs should make a move for Garrett Wilson, Josh Downs or another receiver, and whether Butker has kicked his last game for Kansas City. They also react to the offensive line, Andy Reid’s failed tush push attempt and his comments about it, the five-sack defense and the Arrowheads. The Chiefs move to 6-2.

On Primetime Prospects, Price Carter breaks down the top NFL Draft prospects to watch in this weekend’s college football slate, including Miami vs. Notre Dame, Texas vs. Missouri with Arch Manning, and Alabama vs. LSU, with a Kansas City Chiefs draft lens.

Price runs through the key matchups and the names to know, from Darian Mensah and CJ Carr in the biggest game of the weekend to Jordan Seaton against the Alabama pass rush and Georgia corner Ellis Robinson against Ole Miss. He talks about whether Arch Manning and Austin Simmons could return to school, which tackles and defensive linemen are climbing boards, and the safeties and stretch-the-field receivers who could fit the Chiefs’ biggest needs.

On the OG Hour, Adam Best and Patrick Allen debate whether Andy Reid is still the right coach for the Kansas City Chiefs after the Broncos loss, from the Kingsley Suamataia benching to the quarterback sneak, and preview Chiefs vs. Jets at Arrowhead.

Adam asks how close the Chiefs are to needing a new coach in the second half of the Mahomes era, while Patrick argues fans should be careful what they wish for. They split on late-game management and whether the loss was a blip or a trend. Both are frustrated by the Suamataia and Mike Caliendo decision, and they argue over the Justin Tucker and Harrison Butker situation and why the Chiefs won’t run the sneak with Patrick Mahomes or Justin Fields. They finish with Emmett Johnson, Chris Jones and Mansoor Delane, score predictions, and Paddy’s Power Rankings: favorite John Malkovich and Steve Buscemi movies.
