Summary
It's the weekly installment of the End Around! This week, Dan Hanzus and Marc Sessler are joined by Pete Sweeney of the KC Star for a Flashpoint Focus segment on the Kansas City Chiefs! But first, Dan and Marc play a new game, Three Truths & A Lie: Inside the Quiet Storm. Marc puts forward four statements; he strongly believes three of them, but which is the lie? Then, Pete joins to break down this crossroads moment for the Chiefs. How do they retool after a disappointing season that also saw Patrick Mahomes tear his ACL? Finally, we close the show with a preview of the NFL's Game of the Year, an NFC West showdown between the top two teams in the HTC Power Rankings as the Rams travel north to face the Seahawks.
