They lost their LT for the year now, Fournette can’t stay healthy and even if he plays doesn’t scare me that much, and they don’t use the TE a lot. Bortles in Arrowhead. I think it’s a good matchup for us. As for our O vs. their D, I have no idea what to expect. I feel like they might try to get away with Ramsey on Tyreek 1 on 1 and if they do, I think we make them pay on a big one. Ramsey is really ****ing good, but he has never seen cheetah speed. |

Credit to KK for not doing what that guy's brother is doing, what a lot of haters are doing. Which is moving the goalposts. Saying pump the brakes, he hasn't won a Super Bowl yet. A SUPER BOWL?? Is that the new test to determine if he's got it?? Well I guess we'll just have to win a Super Bowl and then those guys will come out in public for their shaming on having a bad take, right? Don't count on it. |

I see today's boring ass media narrative is "wait until there's tape" or "wait until opponents adjust and see his weaknesses" blah blah blah....ok and then what?
So ridiculous. What is the tape going to tell you? Please tell me this fatal flaw he has that everyone is going to be able to exploit. The guy can already manipulate his personnel and opposing personnel to get the match ups he wants and is moving people with his eyes like a 10 yr. pro. But yup let's wait for the tape..... |

That is about as good analysis as you can get on what they have thrown at Mahomes. Excellent! You could charge for that content! Denver thought they could just blitz Mahomes like crazy last year and he would get rattled. A good strategy against a rookie on the road for his first game? Wrong. He calmly found the open guy and made them pay every time. So when I keep hearing "Teams will figure him out and start blitzing him into interceptions" it is laughable. Go ahead and do what Denver did. Hunt will be glad to get the ball in wide open spaces. Easy completions for big plays! |

Last I heard Monday he was saying sit back and enjoy the ride because we finally got that guy you can count on for 15 to 20 years to be a superstar. I'll take that, guy needs to create something for controversy but he's not dumb enough to keep his head buried in the sand. You gonna fight to get Alex back now?

No doubt, he's a blowhard on the radio trying to get ratings and stir up crap.

[QUOTE=DJ's
The Jags game is going to be fascinating. They have so many athletes on defense that they can play a 2 deep man and make it work. They also have the kind of DL to still get to the passer. It's amazing, but I'm actually looking past the Broncos game because they just don't concern me. Even if they win - who cares? We'll run them down when they fade in November/December like they always do. I want to see how we stack up against the Jags, Pats and Rams - that's it. I care about how we do against SB contenders - the West is just a speedbump.[/QUOTE] There is going to be serious talk about mahomes being the best qb in the NFL after the jags game. You heard it here first. |

That was his argument. We are getting rid of Alex Smith, who is a winner for a kid from Texas Tech who never beat a good team. Mahomes would never have a career as good as Alex Smith. My how times have changed.

Blitz him. He'll do what Brady does - he'll find the blitz and he'll throw at it. With as many dangerous weapons as we can put in the pattern, you can't blitz AND play man; the math doesn't add up. So all you can do is blitz and throw a zone at him. Well if you're blitzing, you're opening a hole in the zone where the blitzer is coming from. Smith would run away from the blitz and try to buy time for one of his receivers to find a hole and sit in the zone. Mahomes does the opposite - he stands there, looks right through the blitzing player and throws into the opening. He did it 3-4 times against Pittsburgh. He's just not the slightest bit afraid of those blitzes. The only way to make a blitz work against him is to disguise the hell out of it but even that is difficult with as much motion as the Chiefs use. How can you keep a blitz disguised when you have 2-3 guys changing where they are in the formation? Or you just selectively deploy them and hope you catch him napping. Which is where I get back to the death by 1,000 papercuts approach. I'd play a shitload of 2 deep man and try to lull him to sleep - then send a safety or something off the edge and try to catch him off guard. Mostly, if I'm a defensive coordinator, I have an ulcer for a week and hope I get to face Gruden's "1995" offense the following game.
