A Level Headed Review Week 7 2023
1. MVS - Making himself known this game. 2 Receptions for 74 yards and a TD at half. This is the MVS we need on a weekly basis, someone to keep the defenses honest and pop the long ones. 3 for 84 to finish the game.
2. Defense - looking really good. Omenihu, Karlaftis and Gay with sacks in the first half. Gave up 2 quick strike TD's in the middle of the second and the 49 yard TD run was just a tackle whiff by Reid at the LOS and the only person left was Edwards who doesn't have the wheels to catch up. It'll happen when you play aggressive like the Chiefs do. I'd rather them stay aggressive and occasionally have to deal with giving up a big play than play soft. Another game of holding an opponent to less than 20 points. Chalk up another couple of sacks in the second half to Tranquil and Danna. 7 total passes defensed. 3. Mahomes - starting to look like Mahomes of old with 21/24 321 yards and 3 TD's at HALFTIME (4th career game with 300+ yards at half). The offense in general has really found its old self, Kelce still dominating, Rice emerging and MVS reminding us he can still catch a ball. I'll be curious to see Hardman's snap count - hoping the solution to what ailed our offense was just a dash of Hardman with the growth of Rice. 32/42 for 424 yards and 4 TD to finish the game. 1st Half 300+ yard games 09/08/19 vs Jax - 313 Yards 09/15/19 vs Oak - 360 Yards 11/29/20 vs TB - 363 Yards 4. Omenihu - deserves his own bullet. Has really shown his presence with the sack and the batted pass that led to a Sneed INT. Glad we took a flyer on the guy knowing he was going to serve a 6 game suspension. He will be crucial for us down the stretch ala Dunlap and Suggs. 5. Mecole Hardman - Glad he is back in a Chiefs Uni. The Punt return was spectacular and a clutch 1st down catch in the 4th Q. He may not be a #1 but he is certainly an important piece of this Offense and special teams unit. 6. Bolton - Hoping the injury isn't too serious. While next man up (Tranquil) applies it is still going to hurt if he misses any time. Fun fact - Top 5 in scoring D and O Points Against after Week 7: Chiefs - 105 Buccaneers - 104 Cowboys - 100 Ravens - 97 49ers - 87* (MNF Game) Points Scored after Week 7: Colts - 178 Chiefs - 178 49ers - 184 Bills - 198 Dolphins - 230 Last edited by DenverChief; 10-22-2023 at 09:13 PM.. |

Great review... We are just getting started. Bolton will be back, may take 6-8 weeks, but he will be back.

Offense looked a little better today.
Defense played a pretty good game, outside of a couple blown coverages. Really stepped up in the 2nd half. Really hope Bolton isn't seriously injured.

Yeah hope Bolton avoided a fracture. Someone on the broadcast said it's a sprain but I'd be surprised as much pain as he was in.
Today was a typical Charger game in a lot of ways, but we don't typically pitch a shutout in the 2nd half. |

Nice write up, it is appreciated DenverChief.
Kelce really gave it all today, just an amazing effort. I liked the overall effort by the wide receivers, Skyy Moore had a couple nice catches and Hardman as you said was a nice addition to the team that showed confidence. Also, I think I like this head official today, Tra Blake and the job he and his crew did. He is in his second year and second time officiating a Chiefs game. |

The 49 yard TD run happened because Tranquill was mugged at the point of attack. He's moving to his right to fill the hole and he's hooked all the way behind his back.
