This will be the game that Frank Clark establishes himself as the league's PREMIER cover lineman.

Zone blitz, Hurts doesn't see it, gets sped up and BOOM - Clark takes a pick the other way for 6...

This board if that actually happens....would be one of the greatest things I've ever seen. TwistedChief would never shutup.

Interior lines are easier to find help for. You can help OTs, but you can't really just shade protection to do it. You have to actually use RBs and TEs to provide it most of the time.

I think you can be more pro-active in what you do when you have strong tackles than when you have a strong IOL.

That's fair which is why I was asking. While the 49er Dline was better than Philly's, this Eagle's Dline vs this Chiefs Oline is a tougher challenge and could be the difference in the game.

There is a ton of clips on that dudes page that show that the Eagles run simple passing concepts and if a defense can take it away, Hurts bails. He doesn't go through progressions, he looks at where it's suppose to go and if it's not there he just bails.

And their counters seem to be he either just throws screens or takes deep shots, a ton of his passes are 50/50 balls outside of the numbers.

Hurts is a dude that could at some point throw 5 picks in a game because he's making decisions before the ball is snapped and if it isn't there he immediately panics.

The only thing that can really slow down the Chiefs offense is poor execution, IMO. And if you start sending heat, you speed them up and may actually HELP them get locked in.

It's like a manager putting on a hit and run call when he has a hitter struggling. Now the hitter HAS to swing the bat and maybe he gets out of his own head and finds the barrel.

You blitz Mahomes early and you're going to immediately get him focused. And if that happens, you're boned.

Makes sense, I was just looking at it by playing the long game. Hit Mahomes early and often (most likely through the blitz) while sacrificing yards and points in the hopes that later in the game he hears ghosts and commits unforced errors.

DJ's left nut 02-10-2023 12:08 PM

The execution of these respective units will HEAVILY favor the Chiefs, IMO.

Our coaches can/will call far more varied and dynamic concepts on both offense and defense because they have a bunch of dudes who will execute it.

Maybe, in a vacuum, the Eagles have marginally more talent. But the Chiefs put their comparable talent to higher/better use.

The number of sacks that the Eagles have allowed despite having the supposed best OL in football and a trio of great WRs/TE seems to confirm that Hurts has a long ways to go reading defenses.

That’s why I like Kalrlaftis in this game. His motor is relentless. I think he’ll eventually get there, while Hurts is taking too long.

Lolz, what will be really hilarious I’d watching all the Frank haters twisting the facts into a pretzel trying to downplay whatever play Frank actually makes. “It was just a coverage pick-6!! Anybody could do it!!! Those don’t count!!!” Et cetera and so on:)

That's also why having a spy on him will be important. If he bails and takes off he needs to be hit hard and often. If his throwing shoulder is messed up, those hits will inevitably add up. Plus I don't believe he is a slide first QB.

I find it hard to believe that the Eagles aren’t just “happy to be here”.

Mahomes and Reid are in full legacy mode.

I always favor the matchups and schemes over the intangibles, but I’ve seen Hurts in a National Championship. It wasn’t pretty.

If you just put a helmet on Tua and told him "Games on - go throw the ball" he's probably so addled at this point he wouldn't give it a second thought...

Eagles may need him to bail out Hurts again on Sunday.

Honestly though, the current version of Hurts is miles different then that one. Being replaced by Tua was probably the best thing that ever happened to him from a QB development perspective.

Not sure I'd say they're just happy to be there. They were the #1 team pretty much all year and they just won a Super Bowl in 2017.

I agree with you though, they're the inexperienced team when compared to KC. They're more susceptible to being "wide eyed" than the Chiefs are, by a lot.

I am obviously not an expert, but early in the game we have to use a lot of screens, slants, and short, quick passes.

We need to be on the short game early, because as the game goes on, it will slow down their rush because they won't be sure if it's a screen or an outlet pass, and they will hesitate just a bit.

So, McKinnon and Pacheco would be huge in the screen game, but I wouldn't limit it to just backs.

And if we can slow their rush just a little bit, after attacking short, the defense could open up for some deep passes.

So, hit the backs, Toney, and even Kelce on quick hitters, screens, and slants, the defense won't be able to just pick a spot on the backfield and go, and we limit their rush and protect Wiley, and to some extent Brown, in the process.

I am also all for running the ball, unless we keep running it up the middle for 2 yards over and over.

And I would say there is an honorable mention, and that's the defense being physical with Hurts. I am not saying play dirty, but when a hard, legal hit is there, we need to make sure Hurts feels it. I would never say let's injure the other team's QB, but their defense sure as hell is going to be physical with Mahomes.

Maybe at QB and HC. Despite KC being in the SB recently, how many people on this team were part of the last SB (starters I mean)? Off the top of my head the only ones I can think of are:

Mahomes
CEH
Hardman (who is on the IR)
Wylie
Kelce
Clark
Jones
Danna (who's not really a starter)
Thornhill
Sneed
Saunders

It's actually pretty amazing to see how much turnover that is on this team as they should have more from a team that was in the SB two years ago.

Based off of prior experiences, I trust Mahomes and Andy against a top defense more than Philly's defense vs us.

If you're talking about being in a SB in general then Thuney should be on that list

True. I realized that after posting. Still a surprisingly small number. Something like 8 of our 22 starters (if Saunders is counted as a starter) have been in a SB. Not as huge an experience advantage as initially one would think.

Eh I don't know about that. Devonta Smith is an elite talent, he would be a monster in the Chiefs offense. I think Corey Davis would end up similar to MVS, a guy who can blow up and has talent but Devonta is on another level. He's only a second year player and he had a better year this year than Corey Davis has ever had. Goedert is good too, they have elite pass catchers.

His bold prediction is an Eagles blowout.

1. Quez Watkins scores the first touchdown of the game

2. Patrick Mahomes gets sacked four or more times as Eagles pass rush makes history

3. Travis Kelce's eight-game streak of having 75+ receiving yards ends

4. A.J. Brown catches TD, but doesn't put up huge numbers

5. The Eagles win the Super Bowl by 14 or more points

And his throwing shoulder is not well. He’s 4/12 passing beyond 20 yards since he came back from that injury.

And one of those was the Devonta catch vs SF that shouldn’t have counted.

They need to force him to beat you downfield. Just blitz the hell out of him and stop the run.

Classic iceberg principle. The vast majority of casual fans and pot-stirring talking heads are barely scratching the surface when analyzing the matchup.

It's simplistic arguments like "the Eagles dominated all year while the Chiefs almost lost to the Texans and Broncos".

htismaqe 02-10-2023 01:20 PM

And if you want to know why the Eagles are favored by Vegas, look no further than the AFCCG. Vegas is really going to love it when the public puts a ton of money on the Eagles and then the Chiefs win...

When the line was first set, I thought it was just Vegas trying to stir up some action. I figured by this time, KC would be a 3 point favorite.

Even with that talent you'd probably rather try to get ahead of the Eagles and put some pressure on them for once, they haven't been in that situation a lot and it'd help take them out of their running game.

I understand the thought process but I'd always defer, even with a trash defense.

I think people able to double up or simply just getting the ball back first after half is so valuable.

Just goes to show that Doug Pederson is another great offensive mind. And you can bet that Andy will be using some of these concepts.

Absolutely. Because we all know Pederson got those concepts from Andy Reid in the first place.

I'm no expert by any means, maybe someone with two connected brain cells can explain. But I don't think that is correct being the money line is still holding firm at -1.5 Philly.

I think that's correct, if the money were 70% to the Chiefs the line would shift.

My theory on how this game plays out: If we can make Hurts feel game pressure in the second half, we win.

He's so used to playing from a comfortable lead that he's going to melt if the game is close late and especially if they're playing from behind. He will make mistakes under pressure. He will hold the ball, make the wrong read, take a big sack, and miss his throws simply because the pressure of the game is too big for him.

Mahomes turns superhuman when he's playing from behind. Hurts is no Mahomes. He is not used to bearing the weight of responsibility in clutch situations, especially during the biggest game on the biggest stage.

I really feel like the path to victory for the Eagles has to have them take an early two-score lead. If they do that, they have a good chance. If they don't and it's close throughout, the Chiefs are winning.

Here’s the last thing I’ll say about Cheffers. If he comes out and it’s blatantly obvious like it was against the Bucs in the SB? Then I don’t want to hear bullshit ever again that we get all of the calls and the NFL wants us to succeed.

Not if the line isn't moving.

That much money on one team would move the line pretty substantially and near as I can tell it hasn't moved a bit.

Thank you. The Eagles are a very good team and deserve to be in the SB. I definitely do not think that the team that wins will have an easy time doing it. Oh and the Bengals are the worst. They honestly think KC only won because the league is rigged and the refs did not want KC to lose.

It is pretty strange that the betting line has not moved at all in either direction the last couple weeks. Like Andy Reid said before the Bengals game: the Eagles are a very good team, but we'll play the game and see how it goes. I think it's pretty much a 50/50 coin toss.

Oh it is. I think the Eagles are a very good and deserving team and will not be a cakewalk. On a different note, KC will easily be the best team the Eagles play all year and wont be a team they can steamroll.

staylor26 02-10-2023 02:37 PM

I just don't see the 50/50 thing at all.

The Chiefs should absolutely win this game.

It opened at KC +2 so it's moved a tiny bit, but it's been +1.5 for at least a week now.

His bold prediction is an Eagles blowout.

1. Quez Watkins scores the first touchdown of the game

2. Patrick Mahomes gets sacked four or more times as Eagles pass rush makes history

3. Travis Kelce's eight-game streak of having 75+ receiving yards ends

4. A.J. Brown catches TD, but doesn't put up huge numbers

5. The Eagles win the Super Bowl by 14 or more points

Sweet.

Here's my bold prediction.
  • Mahomes will throw for over 450 yards and 6 TDs
  • Mahomes doesn't get sacked
  • Kelce has 115 yards and 2 TDs
  • MVS has 165 yards and 3 TDs
  • McKinnon has 105 yards and 1 TD
  • The Eagles score only one TD
  • The Chiefs get 6 sacks on defense
  • The Chiefs defense holds the Eagles to less than 100 yards on the ground.
  • Hurts throws 3 interceptions
  • The Chiefs are going to absolutely curb-stomp the Eagles 56-10. Queue the scene from American History X.

There is but one king and one Kingdom.


I hope that was homer enough. :)

It's so homer I thought it was Staylor posting.

Lzen 02-10-2023 03:00 PM

Was listening to Mitch Holthaus on 610am on the drive to work this morning. He said something about how everyone is talking about the Eagles sack totals while ignoring the Chiefs. The Eagles have 8 sacks this postseason but the Chiefs have 7.

I've got the following. Slightly homer take.

Chiefs win 34-22

Predictions:

1. Kadarius Toney scores a TD on a bubble screen
2. Sneed has a sack and forces a turnover (either a strip on the sack or an INT)
3. Jody Fortson has a TD catch

Game flow prediction:

Chiefs win toss, defer
Eagles stopped cold on first two drives as the Chiefs dial up pressure and slow down the run game and rush Hurts, who continues to not perform well vs. blitz.
Chiefs score TD on first drive.
Eagles punt.
Chiefs score another TD.
Philly gets on the board with TD.
Chiefs run 2-minute offense and kick FG before 1/2, lead 17-7 at half.
Chiefs score TD to open 2nd half (24-7)
Eagles TD (24-14)
Chiefs kick FG (27-14)
Eagles score TD, go for 2 (Hurts gets Octopus). (27-22)
Chiefs TD drive (34-22)
Eagles get ball back with less than 4 minutes to go. Hurts can't make it happen in must-pass situations, Frank Clark gets a sack on 4th down to turn the Eagles over and put it in clock-kill mode (and claim 2nd all time for playoff sacks)
Chiefs win 34-22

National media downplays this accomplishment by pointing out the Eagles outscoring KC 15-7 in 4th quarter and saying they just ran out of town.

Chiefsplanet laughs. And celebrates.

All the while the Eagles played Daniel Jones and Broken Purdy while the Chiefs played Trevor Lawrence and Joe Arrowhead. I'd say there was a "modest" uptick in the ability to process defenses and get rid of the ball quickly.

Have you seen Spags post-season in KC against teams in their first 3 possessions?

2020:
Cleveland: FG, Punt, Fumble lost
Buffalo: FG, Punt, TD (3 yard drive after muffed punt)
TB: Punt, Punt, TD

2021:
Pit: Punt*3
Buffalo: TD, Punt, Punt
Cin: Punt, FG, Punt

2022:

Jax: Punt, TD, Punt
Cincy: Punt, Punt, FG


All this "The Eagles can get off to a fast start and then play from in front..." stuff just doesn't stand up to how Spags defenses have performed in the post-season. He does a really nice job of having his defenses coming out prepared for the team in front of them.

If the Eagles manage 7 or fewer points on their first 3 possessions, they'll be down 10+ points before they get their 4th...

smithandrew051 02-10-2023 03:15 PM

I think the Chiefs have a bit of an off day.

The game stays tied 0-0 until the end of the Chiefs first possession.

After a sluggish start, the Chiefs pull away late in the first quarter and win 69-0.

So, 1.7 points per possession.

Which is below the NFL average. And they're doing this to playoff teams QBed by real QBs.

The worst QB in that grouping is Ben Roethlisberger. Who, even old, is better than anyone the Eagles played in the NFC rounds.
