i dont think maclin out hurts as much as people think...
of course hes a leader and a great player but if Conley steps up and does his job our system will be fine our real concern is offensive play calling |

With no Maclin how do you do that? Please, we have no opposite side real WR threats to be respected. This is where not having DAT really hurts us IMO. So IMHO Wilson/Conley are going to have to play lights out like 5yr playmaking vets and I don't see it. Andy is going to have really dig deep in his bag of playmaking creative plays to adjust for not having Maclin.

I do because it keeps the D honest whether Maclin is primary or not on any play. Now we have no real WR threat and now Bill can have more fun dialing up more creative blitzes and coverages.

I wanted Denver, but the Patriots are nowhere near unbeatable.

I really like the way the Chiefs defense matches up with the Patriots offense. They have a banged up OL, an immobile quarterback, and don't necessarily scare anyone with their running game.
Does New England throw the ball down the field a lot? They still strike me as a team thats a lot like the Chiefs on offense. A lot of short to intermediate throws and they methodically move down the field. That literally plays into the Chiefs hands because thats what we defend so well. Tom is immobile. He isn't going to extend plays like Johnny Football did against us, and he's not going to have enough time to heave the ball down the field... We can win this game. Its just a matter of the offense once again putting up enough points to get the job done. |

Speed also keeps the D honest. We have tons of that. Maclin hurts but it really isn't the end all be all.

It's huge. The chemistry and trust that Alex & Maclin have cannot be discounted because we saw what it looked like last year when he didn't have anyone like that. This is especially the case when it comes to the deep ball. Maclin more often than not will either go get it or it will be on point whereas his attempts to Wilson and Conley down the field pretty much never has a chance.

He's always been good at spreading the ball around, just now he has Maclin and Kelce to throw to. |
