I'll put in my review after looking at things for the last 4 days.

Positives:
* Defense-Mike Danna and Nick Bolton came to play. They look stronger than before and Nick Bolton may be the BEST LB in football. This guy is money. All the D kept jumping, knocking down balls and were quick to tackle. Impressive w/o Jones. Although no sacks, we had pressure all night.
* DB's - they played tight, no real penalties and really started off on a good foot. Hope for the season.
* Tackling - After the first two drives, the D looked sharp on tackling. Didn't find any real whiffs.
* Offense - what more can you say about Mahomes. The guy is beyond belief. Our top rusher, hit guys in the hands all night and should have had an easy W.
* Rushing- Pacheco didn't gain a ton but he had some big runs when needed. McKinnon blocking saved at least 2 sacks and he is a great backup. His catch from Mahomes was money.

Negatives:
* WRs - Wow, what more can I add to what may be the WORST receiving performance in the Mahomes Era. Guys with drops, struggled to get open all night and the two guys with the best performance, Watson and MVS got lost or weren't in when needed in the 2nd half.
* Play calling - that was some of the shittiest play calling in Andy's time here. OK you try a razzle dazzle play and it fails, I can live with that. But WTF is with about 4-5 horrible calls in 3rd and 1 or 2nd and 3 or 2nd and goal. Teams know what we are doing and Andy is getting too cute for his own good.
* Special Teams - while overall a positive, why oh why is every team able to convert a 4th down sneak since Sorensen left? It's like 4 of 4 or 5 of 5. It's a ****ing mess and that should never happen. Play for a fake EVERY time and you will never get surprised.
* Our Oline - that was a hot mess as Mahomes spent too much time taking the snap and scrambling. We looked bad, couldn't block for the run and got away with some really sloppy play. This needs a big improvement.

Yes, they only scored 14 on offense and it should have been a W but this is important to see what happens when Kelce retires. We looked like a hot mess without him.
