3. That Frank Clark tackle attempt in the 1st quarter when Fournette broke his only run....that was pathetic. He didn't even attempt to wrap. He literally just threw his shoulder at him. WTF.
4. Trey Smith may have had his best game of the season so far.
5. Skyy Moore looks like he has some sticky hands. He just snatched that ball out in front of him.
6. Pacheco looked great (no shit), but he ran harder than we've seen him run at any point thus far. He was amped up. I don't think the Chiefs need to rush him into #1 back duties. CEH has looked great in his own right, and i'd rather Pacheco have fresh legs going into the winter months.
7. I think we see why Reid doesn't use CEH in the passing game. I've seen enough now to realize his hands aren't great. He has a very small catch radius and he's dropped more missed more opportunities than he should. Leads one to believe he's simply not that good at it.
8. Anyone else notice that shots of Beinemy on the sideline were damn near non-existent last night?

Definitely on bieniemy. You can just read the body language that his abrasive mess is starting to rub people the wrong way. Also encouraging for mahomes to sit down with a clipboard with Nagy. Not just to discuss strategy but to keep an open line with someone capable of adjusting to the coverages. Somethjng sorely missing the past few games prior.
Karlaftis needs to learn he can’t just overpower his blockers. That’s fine. It’s early and this is a great lesson for him.
Also believe our pressure issues will be solved as our coverage progresses. Quick throw qbs like brady are always a challenge for pass rushes. We need guys like McDuffie and for our young DBs to develop, which they will. If we play Tampa again, crazy to think about how much our team will have grown by then.
