Preseason Priming: Mark Your Calendars!
The good news is that the preseason is just around the corner, kicking off on August 10th. That's right, folks, less than a month until we see the Kansas City Chiefs back in action, shaking off the rust and gearing up for another shot at the Lombardi Trophy.
Here's a sneak peek at the Chiefs' preseason schedule to get you pumped:
Week 1 (August 10th): The Chiefs take on the Jacksonville Jaguars on the road. Broadcast: NFL Network (because let's face it, you probably haven't switched channels since the Super Bowl)
Week 2 (August 17th): It's a home game this time, with the Detroit Lions coming to Arrowhead. Broadcast: Check your local listings (or just wear your Chiefs jersey and hope KSHB picks it up)
Pro Tip: Bookmark the Chiefs' official schedule page [Chiefs Schedule] to stay on top of all the upcoming games.

No Game? No Problem! Football Fill-Ins for the Disgruntled Fan
Listen, we understand your disappointment. Offseason is a cruel mistress. But fear not, fellow Kansas Citian, for there are ways to keep the football flame flickering:
- Draft Day Re-runs: Dust off your "experts" hat and re-watch the 2024 NFL Draft. Analyze those picks like a pro, then cackle maniacally when your bold predictions come true (or bury them deep in the back of your mind if they don't).
- Classic Games Galore: There's nothing quite like reliving the glory days. Find a replay of that epic comeback against the Broncos in '18 or that Mahomes-magic game against the Bucs in the '23 playoffs. You're guaranteed tears, cheers, and maybe even a broken table (be careful, that wasn't funny the first time).
- The Great Debate: Hot Take Time! Gather your friends and family (or argue with your pets, we won't judge) about the burning questions that plague the NFL. Is Brady really retired this time? Will the Bengals repeat? Who has the best touchdown celebration dance?
Remember: There are no wrong answers (except maybe saying the Raiders are better than the Chiefs. Huge mistake. Just sayin').
