Gay and Bolton are real NFL linebackers. These two are incredible.
And don't forget Chenal. I saw him in on a few plays last night.

The Chiefs are surrendering 66 rushing yards per game.

Patrick Mahomes + an elite run defense will win you a lot of games in January.

The run defense has been excellent

Um, I'm not sure I'm reading the stat lines on ESPN correctly, but it says that the Chiefs' D held TB's run game to 3 yards on 6 carries.

this was the most elite performance we've had on run defense since we held Denver to like 20 yards at Arrowhead thanksgiving night in 2006

I’d also like to point out that our defense is missing a starter at all 3 levels

The problem with Hitchens was we depended on him and he wasn't used to being the guy in Dallas where he was part of a great team of LBs. Now we've got two studs who play well off each other, they're young, and they're a lot better than old man Hitchens.

Glad we finally made the investment in the position.
The defensive line is SO much better this year at staying sound in run defense. Chris Jones has been exceptional and we've gotten plus play at the other DT spot as well.

At half time TB was - 3 yards

And we're starting Frank Clark.

It'd be difficult for any franchise to win trotting out that black hole of suck every week.

Chiefs are #2 in run defense in the NFL. Only the Niners are better.

chiefs are #1 buddy

Let's make sure we look at the stats in context.

The Chiefs are 2nd in rushing yards and 3rd in rushing yards per game but they're also second in fewest attempts per game. Teams aren't running the ball against us which brings the yardage numbers down.

What's really impressive is that the Chiefs defense is 3rd in the league in YPA at 3.3.

I remember debating this with DJ, htismaqe and staylor.

It was like their plan this off-season was to stop the run, make offenses more one dimensional and draft better secondary players for 3rd down while Spags dials up his blitzes on 3rd downs.

Looked very effective last night. And man we need more work on the DL but if we can find another good young pass rusher we are in business

O.city 10-03-2022 09:26 AM
They need another pass rusher. Atleast 1.

Maybe 2, but 1 would probably work fine.
