Coach’s Thoughts: The league is going to be a grind as usual. We are still looking to fill some voids left by last year’s outstanding seniors but still think that we have the right pieces to compete each and every week. We will definitely get a good idea of where we stand after playing two great programs to kick off league play.

FNV Outlook: On paper, the Chiefs have one of their most skilled teams ever. All-FNV receiver turned QB Issac Smith, WR/DB Antonio Talley and RB/S Caleb Henninger are all track speedsters, but WR/DB Matthew Williams may be faster than them all. Like most teams, the Chiefs fate will lie on the play of the offensive and defensive lines. We should know where the Chiefs stand after week 2 (Milan) and week 3 (Riverview).
