But watching NFL Live's Marcus Spears this morning, and watching our LBs fire into the gaps, instead of waiting to see what happened as both NYG/SF did, is what appeared to make the difference. They attacked that running game, instead of trying to catch it. Great plan by Spags.

Yep. Super Bowls XLII, LIV, and LVII. Not sure where the 4th is coming from. Although he's the only coordinator in history to win Super Bowls with multiple teams.

I tend to agree, though I hope nothing comes of this
"SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Among the long-standing by-products of team success in the NFL is assistant coaches becoming hot commodities for the various head-coaching openings. Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy has been the supposed next-man-up for a head-coaching job for the past few seasons with the sustained offensive success in Kansas City under Andy Reid. Steve Spagnuolo, the Chiefs’ defensive coordinator since 2019? Not so much. “Spags,’’ as he’s affectionately known by coaching colleagues and players, curiously has slipped through the cracks in this head-coach interview process despite the fact his Kansas City defenses have been quite representative during the team’s five-year run that has the team in a third Super Bowl Sunday, against the Eagles at State Farm Stadium. In his first of two stints as the Giants defensive coordinator, Spagnuolo’s defense was solely responsible for wrecking the Patriots’ bid for an undefeated season, sacking Tom Brady five times in a 17-14 Giants victory in Super Bowl XLII at the very stadium where the Chiefs will play the Eagles on Sunday. That was Spagnuolo’s first Super Bowl ring. He got his second one in his first season as Chiefs defensive coordinator, in 2019. Now, the 63-year-old native of Grafton, Mass., who’s never lost his New England accent, has a chance for a third ring in his fifth Super Bowl, and fourth as a defensive coordinator — a number that should elevate him into the conversation with some of the top men to man that position over the years, including Bill Belichick and Dick LeBeau to name a couple." The rest of the story: https://nypost.com/2023/02/09/chiefs...coaching-shot/

If you have time, I would encourage everyone to watch this by the Eagles' crew, including Seth Joyner. It's so, so good.

after all the shit we endured with GROB and Sutton playing the DBs soft constantly, seeing an opposing fanbase lament their very own defense doing that against us in the biggest game of them all? perfecto.

How does Gannon get a head coaching gig after THAT?

In the 2nd half, his defense held the Eagles to a field goal (thanks to a critical sack by Saunders who ran his ass off to make the play), and forced a 3 and out in large part due to Spags dialing up his blitzing. They held the Eagles to 3 points in their first two drives in the second half. In the Patrick Mahomes era, that is all that was needed to flip the balance of the game to the Chiefs and give Patrick the ball with 5 minutes left for a game winning drive to win the Super Bowl. As a Chiefs fan, you take that hand every single time it's given to you. In the golden era of Kansas City football, this is the exact defense Patrick needs to win a championship -- and to pull it off with a secondary and linebacking core where every player but Justin Reid is on their rookie contracts is just a masterstroke from Spags/Veach and our scouting. And that's just the Super Bowl -- we're not even talking about the AFC Championship game, where, down Sneed and Gay, we witnessed the Chiefs' greatest playoff defensive stand in a half century to twice keep Joe Burrow from a game winning field goal to send us home.

it's never going to be the defense's job to go win the game in the mahomes era but they did more than once this postseason, and the rest of the time, got critical stops when they were needed mission accomplished as long as the defense gets on base, mahomes will drive in the run

I'll keep saying it.
Spags defenses are not among the best defenses statistically, but his defenses since becoming the Chiefs DC have been among the best situational defenses I've ever seen. They just make big game-changing plays in the playoffs in the biggest moments. Without superstars studded all over it. Just a lot of smart, physical, fast guys, led by a coach that might be the best defensive game-planner in the league.

I'm not sure how bullshit hero balls can ever be blamed on the DC and the Eagles scored most of their points on that and that bullshit rugby play that shouldn't be legal.
