Chiefs and Eagles
Super Bowl 57
Storylines galore
Amateurs forever

In what proved to be one of the most inspired performances we've ever seen, the Chiefs outlasted the big, bad, boogeyman Bengals to win their third AFC Championship in the last four years. Amid a sprawling review (as only Amateur Hour can do), you'll hear our reactions to game's biggest moments and brightest stars. Join us next week for a preview of Chiefs-Eagles in Super Bowl 57.

It's the Chiefs. It's the Bengals. It's the AFC Championship. It's Amateur Hour.

It's playoff time, people. The Chiefs are now just three wins away from another Lombardi. First order of business: the Jacksonville Jaguars.

With the regular season in the books and a sixth-straight AFC West title in tow, the Chiefs are now preparing for an unknown playoff opponent thanks to earning the top seed in the conference. We've got reactions and results. We've got big picture trends and playoff what to watch fors. We've got situational football and scintillating stats ... oh, do we have some stats, folks. All that and a bag of (insert chip sponsor here) on this week's episode of Amateur Hour.

The Chiefs took care of business in a ho-hum affair, and now have just two games left in the regular season. On this week's episode: cucumber sandwiches, praise for the defense, playing your best players, the Orlando Coaster, Daly's demise, possible playoff paths, and Dirk makes the case for a new Chiefs Superfan.

After a weird one in Denver, Chiefs fans are asking themselves some tough questions ... or are they?

The Chiefs lost to the Bengals again, but is Cincinnati the better team?

This week on Amateur Hour, we reviewed the AFC playoff picture and talked Toub before discussing the Chiefs receivers, an exceptional rookie class, stats galore, baby names, Sunday's big game against the Bengals, and even a few moments of USMNT right at the tail end of the show.

It's Thanksgiving week, and we're mighty thankful for the 2022 Kansas City Chiefs

After a 30-point second half shellacking against another tough NFC opponent, the Chiefs head into the bye at 5-2. This week's topics include: a debate about the defense, Mecole's rehab routine, a deep dive on Sunday's incredible offensive output, Pocket Patrick, the trade deadline, and a few other random ramblings.

Chiefs lose at home to the Bills. Lots to discuss, ladies and gentlemen, and we covered it all in just under 90 minutes. Topics include: deceptive statistics, Prime Bills, New Chiefs, chess matches, Nick Bolton, Mahomes v Allen, and more

Thanks to an erotic offensive gameplan and a vintage Mahomes-Kelce performance, the Chiefs beat Tom Brady in Tampa on Sunday night. Is that what peak 2022 Chiefs football looks like? Don't miss this week's Who's Your Jefe, or Dirk's Deep Dive. All that and more on this week's episode of Amateur Hour.

After an inexcusable loss to the hapless Colts, the Chiefs need to regroup in time to face Tom Brady and the Bucs on Sunday Night Football. On this week's show, we discuss whether or not Mahomes is having fun, what player(s) might jumpstart the offense, a wildly underrated defensive performance, Horseshoe Voodoo, and the not so special teams.

Disclaimer: we missed the Willie Gay suspension while recording, and we forgot Who's Your Jefe, sooooo ... welcome to Amateur Hour. This week starts with the cagey, curious coaching decisions from both teams before discussing other game reactions, strengths and weaknesses for the Chiefs defense, The Best Offensive Line in the NFL, Clyde's spectacular start to the season, adjusted expectations for the offense, short yardage shenanigans, a potential trap game against the Colts, and a quick trip around the AFC West.

The Chiefs crushed the Cardinals on Sunday, and a massive matchup looms on Thursday night against the San Di ... Angeles Chargers. Don't miss Dirk's fist deep dive of the year, a curious question about the offense, and the world premiere of Who's Your Jefe? on this week's episode of Amateur Hour.

Season 11, Episode 1 - New intro. New era. Same amateurs. This week, His DirknesS devised a daunting list of the 10 most important questions about the 2022 Chiefs season. 

Welcome to Season 11 of Amateur Hour. You know why we're here -- there's an awful lot to process, but we're right on time and ready for coping season.

A post-mortem on the 2021 Kansas City Chiefs

Sunday's divisional round clash against Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills turned out to be a quarterbacking duel for the ages, and Patrick Mahomes proved, once again, that he's the best in the world.

Both the Bills and Chiefs cruised to victory over their wild card opponents and now enter what many are calling the AFC Championship, albeit a round early. These teams have history ... it's gonna be a showdown.

For the first in his career, Patrick Mahomes will participate in the wild card round of the NFL playoffs. Are the Chiefs ready to play their best football in January?

After the Chiefs got Burrowned by the Bengals in week 17, their hopes for the top seed in the AFC playoffs are suddenly in the hands of old friend David Culley and his Mike Glennon lookalike, Davis Mills. Given the circumstances, we felt it was appropriate to rank potential playoff opponents in terms of who the Chiefs would least want to play. We also discussed other stuff. Thanks for listening.

After attending an incredible Chiefs win over the Los Angeles Chargers, your favorite Amateurs give you the inside scoop from SoFi.

In one of the more meandering episodes of the season, your favorite Amateurs hit on a little bit of everything ... including Daniel Sorensen's curious relationship with milk.

The Chiefs kept their winning streak rolling against the Cowboys on Sunday behind a convincing defensive performance. The bye week is always a good time for reflection, so we have big picture questions galore in addition to a few memories from the game. Predictably, RSH gets sentimental around the holidays once again, so we end the show by giving thanks. Happy holidays, good people. Hope you're all safe and happy.

On a special Monday episode, the unquestioned theme of the week is WE'RE BACK. Less than 24 hours ago, the Chiefs palindromed the Raiders in Vegas 41-14. Needless to say, we're still pretty fired up. 

Despite another anemic offensive performance, the Chiefs improved to 5-4 by blitzing Jordan Love into oblivion. This week we discuss the identity crisis on offense, Mahomes theories, "The Big Four" as mere mortals, the rapid defensive resurgence, the cheap seats at Arrowhead, and even a teeny tiny Raiders preview.

After a truly breathtaking performance on Monday Night Football, the Chiefs find themselves back at .500 with three huge games looming before the bye wee... wait ... what's that? Aaron Rodgers tested positive for covid? Fallout from another failed State Farm Bowl to kick of the show, but much of our time was focused on the many distractions that key members of the Chiefs are facing this season. In a year unlike any other, we're finally starting to ask questions about Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes.

The Chiefs improved to 3-3 after a truly bizarre performance against the Team on Sunday. This week's episode includes Dov's take of the week, Clyde vs. Darrel, Cornerback Corner, "Where were you when the Chiefs hit rock bottom?" and plenty more. Welcome to Amateur Hour.

The Chiefs got absolutely embarrassed by the Bills on Sunday night. Everything about the game was truly miserable. With that in mind, this week's episode ended up being nearly as chaotic as the Chiefs 2-3 start. Buckle up.

The offense is awesome, the defense sucks, and we've got stats to back it up. With a huge game looming against the Bills on Sunday Night Football, we start by taking a look at Andy Reid's 100th win as coach of the Chiefs and close with some key variables for game five.

Season 10, Episode 3: the Chiefs dropped to 1-2 on Sunday, which landed Andy Reid in the hospital. Pass interference sucks and so does the entire defense right now. Thornhill Theories got out of hand, not gonna lie. Where's Frank Clark? Why is Mahomes turning the ball over? Josh Gordon is here? Welcome to Amateur Hour.

It's not often lately that the Chiefs lose a regular season game ... certainly not in September. But this, friends, is what we live for - talking Chiefs after a tough loss, just like the old days. Our thoughts on the game are in addition to Dirk's birthday weekend in Vegas, a deep dive on third down inefficiency, perhaps the final Sammy Watch ever, Who Ya Mad At, and the puzzling usage of Clyde Edwards-Helaire.

Season 10, Episode 1 includes lamenting our last Super Bowl preview, Dirk's biggest questions entering the 2021 season, the debut of two new segments, a deep dive on the Chiefs "other" dynamic duo, and of course - Football, Friendship, & FUN.
