as good as our offense is, we've gotta remember we're probably dead last in setting up the punter.

Yep, most coaches are very reserved in that aspect and most of the time, Reid is no different. You can tell he's legitimately very high on Patrick Mahomes and just can't contain it sometimes.

You usually get the 'This kid is super special' tidbits from players, not coaches. With Mahomes you have GM's and coaches practically giggling like schoolgirls every time they were asked about him. "Tee-hee! He's getting better!" they couldn't get a platitude out without a chuckle. Then they slip out some crazy praise about how insanely smart he is or how crazy strong and accurate his arm is. That's going to make me pause. |

pat mahomes is helping to save Erving's career. I think Erving is working like mad to pay him back by focusing and playing good football. It's exciting, gentlemen.

But man - watch those clips. They don't get it right every time but those cats can pass block. And some of the times that things get hairy are the RPO plays where they're down blocking and Mahomes keeps the ball for the throw. The OL is just genuinely good. They're giving him a lot of room to work with. They aren't a nasty squad so they seem to be struggling with run blocking a little, but they're also facing 8 man boxes in the 2nd halves of some of these games and we're trying to run uphill at that point.

Maybe not. Perhaps probably not.
I had the Rams game down as a loss and despite what we've seen offensively, I gotta stick with that because that team can move the damn football. The Chiefs are tied for 3rd in the NFL with only 25% of their drives going 3 and out. I don't recall who is 2 and they're at something like 21%. The Rams are under 7%. The defense is what we thought it would be but McVay has that team's offense clicking. If the Chiefs are the WCO mixed with the Air Raid, the Rams are just a sort of WCO Godzilla. They just do west coast concepts better than I've ever seen them done right now. Andy's taking the ability to spread the field horizontally and combining it with the ability to move it downfield. McVay's just using the horizontal passing game (and the run game) to it's peak use. It looks a lot like when Brady was humming at full tilt. Goff just smiles and dials and dings you 7 yards at a time. That team is uniquely well suited to control the clock on offense while presenting a shell defense that makes us work harder than we like to score in response. The Rams are going to be tough because they're just so good in all phases right now.

The play to Kelce where he dropped the snap. He picks it right up and there's still nobody near him.
He had another strike to Kelce where he was able to take a full drop, step into the throw and just 'ho hum' deliver a bullet from a perfect base because nobody was near him. These aren't quick hitters that keep the DL from getting to him. These were plays where the line literally gave him as much time as he needed.

Peters and Talib injured their calf and ankle respectively. Those could be the nagging type of injuries that hamper them the rest of the year. The LB core of the Rams is ****ing terrible. They could be looking mortal in the coming weeks.
