No excuses for the Chiefs in 2020

Yeah, first off, I think the biggest thing you have to do with all 2020 is just try to make you accept every challenge of the next day. You just really – every morning you wake up knowing you’re going to have to go in with an open mind, prepared for whatever comes your way. For me, I mean that’s kind of how an athlete has to prepare for every single day, every practice, every meeting whatever it is, and so I’m going to do that, I’m going to continue to do that. Every single day I wake up it’s a blank slate, I’m going to go out there, attack it, be the best person, athlete or whatever it is that day and hopefully we keep going good as far as a football facility and as a nation we try to progress and get to the other side of this.– Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes

A lot of players and coaches in the Chiefs’ locker room have echoed a similar sentiment to Mahomes here. They’re not going to use COVID-19 and this strange offseason as an excuse for failure. They’re still going to meet the challenges head-on and prepare as they normally would for a successful, winning season.
