1 rush by KC in three consecutive possessions, 8 incompletes in a row to start the 3rd quarter. PUNT PUNT PUNT. What am I missing?

They do get too cute in the redzone

lol imagine complaining about having the #1 offense and winning all of the time, KYS

Andy trying to win Mahomes the mvp. We’re obviously better when we have a balanced attack.

Again, cause and affect. You can't keep that ratio if you're behind. You can run for 2 YPC all first half, fall behind, and end up having to pass it 99% of the time in the second half trying to save clock for a comeback.

Teams don't lose games because they pass a lot. They pass a lot because they're losing.

Might have something to do with the fact that the team has no short run game to speak of. Like at all.

You shouldn't be running with a team that can't run.

The fact that the Chiefs are the league's best offense by a mile probably.

And it certainly isn't because of their run game.

So no actual explanation for why the offense couldn't convert a single first down in that stretch utilizing the world's best passing attack. Got it.

What are you even arguing here? Whatever it is it makes no sense at all.

The Chiefs have the best offense in football by a metric ton and it is because they pass a huge amount with the best/most talented QB in NFL history.

About four drops.

That's PRECISELY why you do it. Chief Fans want to run into a 9-man box and then wonder why we can't get very many yards.

The ability to engage in an intelligent discussion apparently.

As if multiple 1-2 yard gains sprinkled in would change the situation that this game was on Mahomes to win.

Guys dropping passes, and blown pass protections had a lot to do with it but sure, let's waste every first down with a shit run, get Pat behind in the chains and then what?

Can he get 2 shots to convert?

No?

Ok let's get another ****ing 1 yard salad toss in there to satiate dilphag and megaturd's appetite for a wholly ineffective run game.

Ok Pat, now it's 3rd and long, You got one chance to convert this BUT HEY WE KEPT EM HONEST BOIIIIIII!!!

THEYLL NEVER SUSPECT A PASS NOW!!

**** outta here reerun.

As an aside, I just want to make sure that while I absolutely advocate for a more balanced attack, say something more like 60/40 pass/run, I do not advocate for running on every first down.

I also do not advocate for running every time Pacheco is in the game.

The ENTIRE point of running the ball is, to me, to make the offense unpredictable and force the defense to play each and every down honestly.

Carry on.

No one wants KC to run on 1st down every time. Not even most of the time. No rushes in three consecutive possessions is kind of extreme though, especially when we had the lead.

Who said anything about running it on first down? i think I specifically said that 1 rush in three possessions was too lopsided, or words to that effect. Try reading comprehension.

Jeez, another thread where you're full of shit. Who whould have thunk it? Know- it -all idiot

I think these games are ones Andy grinds through bc they mean absolutely nothing to him. It’s gotten worse with Patrick as his QB.

Think about it. Every September we blow the doors off these teams. We do new shit and score points. Defenses have no idea what to do to stop it.

We do new stuff and iterations of old plays in different ways like this against games we care about or early in the year:

Games like today do nothing but put tape out for the Bills and Bengals if we open the playbook. Andy still has issues but he will use his regular stuff in these games bc he knows we are just better than them and will come out on top.

run screens it is about it

Dlphag and starting a thread bitching about a win - name a more iconic duo

Cave and Belize

Aw, where did i touch you? Can you show me on the doll, sweetie?

But don't fret, I don't know everything; just more than you. Not a high bar, and to you it might seem like a mountain, but rest assured that you're 100% incorrect once again.

Happy New Year!

legit question because idk it just feels like it. Has Mahomes been bad at deep passes this year?

I know!

We keep finding ways to win, despite ourselves.

The horror of it all.

I think we underrated Tyreek’s ability to adjust and hit that extra gear

Starting to think KC is like that predator who toys with their prey before killing them. They had zero issues building a lead and suddenly couldn’t move the ball. Once Denver took the lead they rattled off two straight TDs. They are a killer whale and the Broncos are that seal that gets flopped back and forth.

It's important to play well. We have played our D game 4 out of our last 5 games. That is problemsome.

Yeah its like .. lets work on this or that and see if it works in the 3rd quarter.. then pull out the good stuff if we're behind or a 1 score game in the 4th..

It's what andy do.
He believes in the potential for a big play, even if it's a jet sweep pass or a quick throw to the flat, screen, rpo. He's always done this and it's never going to change. Dude likes to score a lotta points, strongly believes the pass, short or long is what gets him to the endzone more often than the run. I wish he would run it more but he'll never even approach 40% designed runs. He could have Barry Sanders, wouldn't matter. Hell, even with Jamal Charlesand alex smits. he threw it 60+% of the time.

We need to run the ball more. Andy cannot abandon the run after the defense stopping one play. I don't care how you cut it but come playoff time, teams that can run the ball and play defense tend to do better. We can run the ball but we freak out if the D makes one stop against our run.

Well, FWIW Hunt did win the rushing title as a rookie.

Am I the first to say YOU are too damn predictable?

I don't care if it's a straight run or a pass to the RB but some of our biggest plays have been passes to the RB be it Pacheco or JMcK.

We have Andy Reid and the best QB in the game so this is just how it's going to be sometimes.

I do agree though and have said that if we're going to beat the Bengals we do probably need to run the ball better. Not Hermball but definitely enough that the running game is a weapon. I think it seems to be a much bigger deal when we play the really good teams like Buffalo and Cincy that are legit defenses and are completely selling out at all costs to stop the pass. We either have to run the ball effectively a little bit or Mahomes just has to play out of his mind at the absolute highest level with no mistakes.

There is precisely zero chance it’s a 60/40 split through three quarters or even 50 minutes in those games they win.

That miss to MVS today was pretty bad.

the only thing predictable each week is your bleeding vag starting a dumb ass thread... Literally every week you do it...

At least my shitty thread was after a loss. OP is a mouth breathing reerun. And for people who say Andy won’t run the ball, do you remember the AFCCG against TN? Andy ran the ball down their throats the entire second half.

I love you again, bro.

maybe, just maybe...Chiefs are keeping it close and not opening up and will wait to show the door kicking down offense in playoffs.:shrug:

Any loves forgetting that he can run the ball esp when we are running the ball well.

Also, Andy needs to stop this friendly and keep his foot on the fas pedal even if we are up 45.

I had a drunken meltdown. It happens. Being on vacation has cleared my thick skull!

I felt like we ran a lot on first down.

Did not see every time, but much of the game

Honestly our offense suffered more when we kept taking deep shots yesterday than when we played the short passing/screen game.
