8 catches, 93 yards and a TD for the Chiefs.
He was my second to last pick in my fantasy draft. 04-rock
Won my wife's fantasy game for her tonight. He's their first or second option at receiver now.
I've been pushing him, well I lost this week because I decided to start Vernon Davis against a horrible Eagles pass defense and of course he gets hurt during the game. My gut kept saying, start Kelce who I had in until Sunday morning when it sounded like Davis was fully healthy, but I didn't.

I expected him to be playing like this in the 2nd half, but if he keeps it up, he may wind up a top 5 TE, a year earlier than I predicted.
Kelce looks like he's going to be the next Jimmy Graham/Vernon Davis type receiving TE. I thought KC got steal in 3rd round, Kelce was the most talented TE in that class.

He actually reminds me more of Jason Witten.

These "new breed" TE's are ridiculous. Huge with WR speed

Kelce was blowing past LB's last night and even the CB's were struggling to find pursuit angles to intercept him.

I am in two leagues and drafted Kelce in the last or second to last round in both leagues. He was my "SOD".

His upside, largely because of his ability to run after the catch, is insane - he is the best playmaker receiver on KC.
He's apparently also winning hearts and minds there with very classy moves (to balance out the necessary cockiness) like this...

Awesome move by Kelce - doesn't take many of those to become a major fan favorite.

Great to see they appreciate him.

KC is really good and with so many offensive weapons already the defenses have a lot to handle, it is perfect fit for a big explosive guy like Kelce. Kind of like how Gronk and Antonio Gates were perfectly set up to excel in NE and SD.

If they keep winning and Kelce stays healthy he could go from an unknown to national top-tier name in a single season.

He's a very good example of the "new TE" in the NFL, but he wasn't as talented as Eifert.

Eifert had better hands and made more spectacular catches, but I think Kelce was more talented and is capable of much crazier numbers...seems quicker, faster and stronger.

I always thought Eifert was overrated at ND, I know the Bengals are very high on him but I liked Kelce much more coming out and he's showing why.

Of course when it comes to our guys I can never be unbiased.

I like how a K.C. fan described Kelce:

"He's a Mack truck with a jet engine..."
