I'm confused by alot of the comments here. The "cure" for our offense is West Coast run game, dink and dunk? So the exact offense the Chiefs ran for the 30 years prior to Mahomes and never once worked?

NFL defenses are on to our shit. They know our traditional cover 2 beaters. They're sitting on our routes. They're flooding zones and bracketing Hill and Kelce in certain situations.
We've been running the same offense for years and we're the most analyzed team in the game. No team has gotten the attention the Chiefs have. They're probably the most studied team in the league right now.
And as someone said last night, the Chiefs have to have a complete identity makeover in order to counter it. They have to be something they're not. Mahomes is allergic to checkdowns. Tyreek wants to get deep. The Chiefs want to get deep and use their speed.
But they have to mutate into a running team. It doesn't have to be a power run game, but it has to be a lethal run game and yeah they have to exploit underneath routes.
In order to find consistent success against this, this leopard has to change its spots. That's tough to do.
It doesn't have to look like a dink-dunk, power run game. But they do have to exploit the underneath options with traps, counters, speed sweeps etc. Idk, but they're going to have to get real creative and find some shit they can routinely go to the well with.
