Podcast: Talking Taco and remembering Minnesota

On this episode of It's Alway Sunny in Chiefs Kingdom, the gang talks about the Kansas City Chiefs' signing of Taco Charlton, look back to the Chiefs' 2019 game against the Minnesota Vikings, and take questions from Twitter.

On this week’s episode of It’s Always Sunny in Chiefs Kingdom, Austin Johnston and myself, Taylor Witt, talk about the timely signing of former first-round pick Taco Charlton as a depth piece on the Chiefs’ defensive line. He may have been cut by the Dolphins and Cowboys, but there’s some upside to daydream about with Frank Clark’s former Michigan teammate.

Next, we recapped the Chiefs’ heroic 26-23 victory over the Minnesota Vikings in Week 9, as Patrick Mahomes missed a second-straight start. The run defense held the NFL’s leading rusher, dynamic Minnesota RB Dalvin Cook, to only 71 yards rushing and Harrison Butker nailed a 54-yard game-tying field goal with under three minutes to go, and then the walk-off 44-yard game-winner.
