It’s impossible to run a high level offense with this OL play. We’re skating by because Mahomes is Mahomes.

Mahomes missed a lot (I think all) of the deep passes he took today. Several of them were open. It's not like it was a small miss, but usually about 10 yards off on those. If he can start dialing in on those, we'll be in business again with the offense.

Eventually, people are just going to have to admit that Mahomes is not playing well this year. It’s really that simple. He’s clearly not putting in the work he used to because he’s exhausted, overextended, and constantly having to play injured. That’s the issue, not the o-line.
The offense despite average at best tackle play was still *ELITE* in 2022. Not nearly as many big plays, but just relentless marching down the field. Big drop-off last year but still above average. This year, it's fallen off a cliff.

Kurt Warner (who can be pretty critical of Mahomes’ play), has been banging this drum all season.

Offense wasn’t sharp today, but it absolutely has not been one of the worst in the league this year. #2 in success rate as of a few weeks ago. Best 3rd down conversion rate in years.

They don’t have to be explosive to be effective. And at the end of the day, all that matters is scoring more than the opponent. When they need points, they get them.

IF I heard right, it was a horrific offensive gameplan with the status of our offensive line and Cleveland’s pass rush.

He looks totally deflated. Rest him next week and allow him to regroup.

The deep ball plays were there - but the throws were not. Pat has been shit in that category all year long.

he hit Hopkins on a deep one but it bounced out when he hit the ground

I think there was more but I can't recall exact moments

KCUnited 12-15-2024 04:45 PM
We were up 14 in the 4th and called 20 pass plays that took a total of 40 seconds off the clock

I'm making those numbers up but that's how it felt so today was absolutely the play calling WHEN WE HAD the game in hand

Multiple things can be true at once

Run, pass, it doesn't matter -- there are no big plays or easy throws like you see with decent to good offense. Our offense is one of the worst in the league. (If you deny that, you simply don't watch much football. Sorry.)

On the flip side, our D was spectacular today. One of the best performances I can remember.
How is the offensive line an “elephant in the room”? The offensive line is talked about all the time.

I’d argue the plays are going to be there at this point. Secondaries are going to date Pat to hit them until they get burned for it.

This team is exhausted.. We need to wrap this shit up so they can rest..

Oh, I don't think they are going to stop throwing them because they've absolutely been open.
