That's fine.
Here is the reality of what will happen when your defense faces Mahomes & Co. I am drawing a parallel here of another SB I remember not to long ago. I believe it was 2015. Remember how the whole NFL fanbase, sports press were washing Cam's balls for 2 weeks ? And how the dominant narrative was how they were just going to destroy Denver because Manning was gimpy the defense really hadn't stopped any high octane offense yet and were going to be exposed by Superman, right ?
Yeah remember those "deer in the headlights" of Cam from the first possession on through the rest of the game? Wade, recognized immediately Cam didn't know how to read defenses and adjust to particular coverages. Denver was damn talented and only the teams that really knew that were the AFC west foes.
Let's go flipside parallel of that 2015 SB
Your 9er defense are getting their balls washed 24/7 right now by everyone all over the NFL, sports press, etc...... indirectly insinuating Mahomes hasn't seen a real defense yet and will be exposed as a paper tiger playing against your supposed shutdown 9er defense. Here is the dirty little secret. We have already played the majority of your current roster less than 2 yrs ago and already know your physicality and still defeated you with a rookie Mahomes. Now Pat has almost 2 yrs maturity in the position with even a better offensive roster and understanding that mimics a 10yr vet.
This game is really Saleh vs Reid. And we all know Andy's history coming off a bye.
Saleh isn't going to show anything different than Pat and Andy haven't already seen by now. When you have played against the best in Bellichek (of which I hope Saleh tries to mimic)
and can still win, you are in trouble. You better be praying to God that our o-line does not show up in the SB because if they keep Pat clean the majority of the game, this game will be over very early because Reid will have Saleh on a merry go round he will not be able to get off of I assure you.
Bottom line: Saleh and your defense will be "deer in the headlights" early on if our o-line shows up. You "think" you have played against high octane offenses(Saints-Corvette) BUT you really have not until you have faced Mahomes & Co.(Lamborgini
