Defense narrative is wrong on this game
Chiefs lost because on 10 offensive possessions they scored 13 points. They had plenty of possessions. When you can't convert 1st downs your TOP suffers. It's simply wrong that Indys rush game was why they won. Chiefs gave up 4 ypc, league average, and only 330 total.
Lots of running requires long drives with many opportunities to be stopped, which the chiefs did every drive except the first. Unless you convert those to TDs you aren't scoring enough to win in the modern NFL without a great defense. 19 points won't get it done. Even in the AFCCG the chiefs only yielded 3.7 ypc. But they couldn't stop the short pass game and gave up 7 TDs. This year's team is getting stops at key times the last two weeks. This week they eliminated big plays except the PI. The defense has not been good. But it's been good enough to be 5-0, and is getting better. Online is trash, and is not helped by Andy never running the ball or enough screens/draws to keep the opposing D line honest. We get Mo next week and hopefully a trade or two to add a DB and possibly front 7 piece. Chiefs are gonna getcha, yarhoooo. |

No. Our defense sucks. Our defense is good enough to win because mahomes, is not an excuse. Mahomes is putting up record numbers without wr1 and 2 now, and lt1 and gore saying it's not the defenses fault. Mahomes shouldn't have to carry the d.

Indy’s injury situation isn’t as remotely similar to the Chiefs. Indy had a completely healthy o-line which was mentioned in the broadcast and they used it to run it down our throats and limit our opportunities.

The “don’t blame the defense because they only gave up 19 points” narrative is bullshit.
Playing bend and don’t break and giving up THREE 11 play drives and a 14 play drive plays right into the opposing team’s #1 goal which is to keep Mahomes on the sideline. |

The Indianapolis Colts beat us the same way the Pats beat us and the way Detroit almost beat us - keep Mahomes off the field, bleed the clock. It's not complicated, and easy to do with this defense.

And what the hell was with calling three time-outs with 4 minutes left in the game when we were clearly going to give up another first. Sent from my ZTE A2017G using Tapatalk |

The Colts held the ball for almost 40 minutes, and in the 2nd half alone had an 11 play 7 minute drive and a 14 play 9 minute drive, and the only pass they threw was called back for a penalty on a pick play...and you want to sit there and tell me that WASN'T the defense's fault?
Are you ****ing SERIOUS!? WE HAD FOUR POSSESSIONS IN THE SECOND HALF. THEY RAN 20 MORE PLAYS THAN WE DID. THEY RAN THE BALL AT WILL. 11 PLAY, 7 MINUTE DRIVE. 14 PLAY, 9 MINUTE DRIVE. THAT'S OVER A FULL QUARTER IN TWO DRIVES...AND THEY KEPT MAHOMES OFF THE FIELD FOR OVER A QUARTER OF THE GAME ON TWO DRIVES. THINK ABOUT THAT.
