Thankfully, the Chiefs seem to have rivers' number. The dime defense seems to really frustrate rivers. But this is probably the most talented supporting cast rivers has had in years. But I'm more concerned about our offense. Joey bosa is elite and their defensive line is going to give us fits. More importantly, gus Bradley runs circles around the last 2 D coordinators we've faced. Maybe Nagy has figured out how to make our offense work, as we went back to some of the gadgetry we were doing early in the season. The game can go one of two ways, our defense stifles rivers again and we play game management ball on offense. Or our defense gets beat a little and Smith has to figure out how to carve Bradley's defense that includes an excellent pass rush.
I don't know how we will do because rivers against us is so erratic. And Im not quite sure if our offense is reformed or just carved two bad defenses, or if our defensive turnaround was a 1-time thing. This is the game where we'll learn a ton about where we actually are.
