A Level Headed Review Week 3 2024

[DenverChief]

McDuffie just got his feet tangled and it effected him more than Mooney.

The Drake London TD was a blown coverage by Johnson....just a young player mistake on a WR switch route. Didn't take the pass off from Tranquill.

Worthy with a nice pitch and catch for 10 yards and follow up with a nice catch and run for 6 yards. Worthy really does seem to play defense well when the pass has a chance to be intercepted. Gah just stopped running on that route...gotta keep running through that route.

Steele really showing his mettle with some nice hard runs and good chunk yards.

Perine also with some solid runs, he is no Pacheco but between him and Steele....I can only imagine what Hunt will bring as well.

Rice has some sick moves in the open field with some of his stop and go stuff.
Gotta make that catch in the 2nd quarter just before half - in his defense Mahomes threw it a bit behind him but it was catchable.

Wanya seems to be faring well so far and as the game has gone on.

Mahomes just got fooled by a good DB on the INT.

Jones stupid mistake on the RTP that led to a score to put the Falcons up by 7. Gotta play more disciplined.

The crushing hit and fumble by FAU on Cousins was a beautiful thing to watch. Too bad the penalty for kicking the ball out of bounds isn't more stiff. I would make it a 15 yarder and a loss of down.

That pick by Connor was a perfect result of Jones destroying the OL and pushing them back into Cousins face. The second half is going to be rough for them.

The goal line series of plays, I get that we have been stuffing it down their throat but it seems like we go back to the well too much. The 2nd down play was an obvious run...should have had another play action play called. Still got. a FG but we need more TD's. FG's are going to come back and bite us.

Defense starting to look better...make Cousins find someone open and let a 3 man rush flush him.

Juju finally on the board with a catch and Tuddy. Love this for him.

Then Butler does the next to impossible and actually hits the upright square on, on the XP.

Spags with the unique and timely blitzes forcing a long FG attempt by the Falcons.

Props to Ariza for being able to snag that wild snap and still get an amazing kick off to pin ATL.

Great goal line stand, Cook with two pass breakups - the first one could have been called DPI as he never got around to make a play on the ball but the refs just let them play it out.

Where was the illegal hands to the face on Connor and was it just me or was that a very questionable DPI. The WR just ran into McDuffie standing still, I guess that's a make up call for the Cook non-call.

Killing ourselves with penalties tonight. Gotta get the silly calls (that actually happen) cleaned up.

The DEFENSE saves the day again for us. Would love to see the offense get a little more in sync but I love seeing the Defense come up big to save the win.

Great win, I say some questionable red zone calls. It's been an issue for the last few years, FG instead of TD in the red zone. Games could be basically over. And the over usage of the WR screen almost got Rice injured. The back was breaking on the play before the ball was thrown.

[VAGOMO 4 LIFE!]

Good game by Steele tonight! He’s gonna be a nice backup for years to come

Just wish the blocking was better in short yardage. It's always ugly in those situations. Thank goodness the Falcons also crapped their pants with a dumb 4th down playcall at the end.

If Mahomes is on in the first half and if Kelce and Worthy complete those 3rd down conversions, and we get 1 TD and 2 FG instead of 3 FGs on those drives we beat them 17, and we are teeing off on cousins down 2-3 scores.

We pack it in like we our a power football team when we have Mahomes. Spread 'em out and run it if you want to run it inside the 5.

Second half felt much better than that. The kid is a beast.

Even with that I'd say we are doing pretty well in terms of injuries compared to other franchises.

I think it’s incredibly obvious to anyone paying attention that Andy Reid is drawing the same plays from past gameplans.

Every play we ran tonight we’ve seen several times before.

Andy really does not give 2 shit about new shit in the regular season.

Looking at the replay it was a pretty weak call. I mean I've seen worse but that wasn't RTP.

It pisses me off so much. We can NEVER close out games and keep them drama free.

Look at Worthy's route at the top of the screen. Dude is open.

I'd say give it time.

[Hydrae]

Too bad the penalty for kicking the ball out of bounds isn't more stiff. I would make it a 15 yarder and a loss of down.

I was surprised it was not at least marked off from the spot of the kick.

Upon further review… he could have seen if cousins had the ball if his head wasn’t being driven backwards.

They called this roughing the passer, ignored the hands to the face, and extended the drive to give the Falcons a TD.

And people will still say it’s rigged for the Chiefs 🤣 pic.twitter.com/z8kChGppQo
