NBC Sports analyst Chris Simms has never been afraid to stir the pot â and this week, he did it again. During his latest segment, Simms dropped a take that immediately set NFL Twitter on fire: the Kansas City Chiefs do not have the best offense in the league right now.
âNo, itâs not the best offense in the NFL right now,â Simms said. âThe best offense in the NFL right now is the Indianapolis Colts. They can do everything. Now, Daniel Jones is not Patrick Mahomes, so that evens the playing field a little bit. That Colts offense is really good. You see that Cowboys offense is really good, too.â
Simmsâ comments sent shockwaves through the fanbase â especially in Kansas City, where supporters see Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and Andy Reidâs system as the gold standard of modern offense. The Chiefs have long been considered the NFLâs most dynamic, unpredictable, and dangerous unit, capable of scoring from anywhere on the field at any time.
However, Simmsâ point wasnât entirely baseless. The Coltsâ offense, under new leadership and with an increasingly confident Anthony Richardson, has been explosive and balanced â mixing a strong running game with an aggressive aerial attack. Their offensive line has held up well, and their ability to adapt each week has caught analystsâ attention across the league.
Still, calling anyone better than Mahomesâ Chiefs is bound to ruffle feathers. Kansas Cityâs offense may not always lead the league in yards or flashy stats, but it consistently delivers when it matters most. Mahomesâ improvisational brilliance and Kelceâs unmatched chemistry remain nearly impossible to defend â especially under Reidâs creative play-calling.
Fans were quick to clap back online, pointing out that âthe Chiefs turn it on when it countsâ and that âstats donât win rings â execution does.â
Simms, though, stood firm in his assessment, suggesting that the Chiefsâ offense this season hasnât looked as sharp or efficient as usual. Whether thatâs a temporary slump or the start of a new offensive hierarchy remains to be seen â but one thingâs for sure: Mahomes will hear the noise, and history says he usually answers it on the field. đđ„
