Sure was nice to see Buttkicker get his head right and have a perfect day with a 50-yarder. Especially watching Maher turn into Ray Finkle. We're going to need him next week.

Kevin Harlan is the #1 radio announcer, he probably will be there but doing the national radio broadcast. He does all the big playoff games and Super Bowl. They didn't pay Tony Romo $20 million a year to sit out their biggest game of the year.

Recipe for beating the Bengals

Pacheco/McKinnon end with combined 200 total offensive yards.
Kelce has 10 catches, 80 yards and at least 1 score
Orlando Brown is able to handle Trey
MVS doesn’t have any crucial drops
Hardman is able to play and has a couple impact jet sweeps
Kadarius Toney has a big game and breaks one for a score.
Skyy, Juju, Watson snd Gray make the list of their opportunities
Not more than one big turnover

He’s the biggest cock in the league. But he fits perfectly with the Bengals because they all are. They follow their coaches lead no doubt. And yet they’ve won absolutely nothing in the NFL. It’s pretty strange actually.

Should look to emulate the Ravens plan running a lot of two high looks and soft zones. Burrow was basically asked to papercut the Ravens to death. I vaguely recall the announcer saying Bengals ran the most hitch routes in football history or some shit, and for the most part what the Ravens did worked.

Also 8 QB hits and 4 sacks will slow down just about any offense.

Think the recipe is clear: stop the run, consistent pressure, and eliminate plays +20 yards. Easier said than done of course.

The Bengals were one of the worst rushing teams in the league this year, so plenty of teams found ways to stop the run.

They gashed us though, which was extremely disappointing.

Our pass rush and run defense have a major prove-it game coming up.

If it's TV, then it would be Nantz and Romo. Not Harlan last I checked. CBS isn't going to sideline a guy they're paying $20 million to sit.

If it's radio, then yes it would likely be Harlan.

He's better than Allen, and rightfully so.

Allen hasn't done shit.

If forced between taking Allen and Burrow, I would easily pick Burrow and wouldn't think twice.

Never ever count Patrick Lavon Mahomes II out. If there is one player that can beat the extremely lucky and arrogant bungholes, it's Mahomes. His ankle health obviously will determine the outcome of this game. I have trust in this team and the coaching staff. It has to be a team effort from top to bottom. Go all out and defeat those imbeciles.

Allen is a little prick too with his bullshit on the field antics. Way too chippy then waits for his teammates or the refs to show up and intervene.

Burrow is a cocky SOB but not a bitch like Allen.

I don't think this game will have much to do with Spags either we own the ****ing LOS against these ****ers or we don't then we might be in a little bit of trouble. I just don't get it their line of almost all backups today owned and thr 3 games against us it was the same thing

This game is about good guys (Mahomes, Kelce, Jones, Clark) vs criminals / women beaters (Burrows, Mixon, Perin, etc..).

It is the good men versus criminals...hopefully the good guys win! Regardless, our Chiefs are all winners in life - and the Bengals are criminals!

It really defies logic.

No Von Miller really made a difference for the Bills pass rush though. It was never the same without him. That secondary has also been really bad, so Burrow was able to get rid of the ball quick. The Bills have been shredded on the ground too.

So maybe that explains it.

Our pass rush HAS to get to Burrow this time. Zero excuse not to. That line wasn’t great before the injuries, and is a bunch of JAGs now. I think you can get by for a game with that line, but it can’t be sustainable.

Otherwise, why would any team ever invest in the OL if you can just scheme protection like this?

Their line had gelled and was playing good football from Halloween until 3 weeks ago when they started dropping like flies. 3 new lineman with the noise at Arrowhead will be difficult.

One of their remaining starters got banged up today too.

If Jones wants that extension, he needs to wreck this game.

RaidersOftheCellar 01-22-2023 08:15 PM

Really surprised to see the Chiefs favored, but it’s probably a good thing. Money will likely pour in on Cincinnati.

dallaschiefsfan 01-22-2023 08:26 PM

This team consistently raises its level of play everywhere when QB1 is less than 100%. Look for the defense to be focused and ready to pick up Mahomes.

I heard that the Bills’ pass rush was bottom third after Miller went down.

KC’s pass rush win rate is 15th for the season. But they’ve been on an uptick lately. Wonder where they rank over the last several weeks.

They aren't getting to Burrow because he keeps releasing the ball in less than 2 seconds. Key to pressuring him is to play tight man coverage on their receivers so he can hold the ball a second longer. It's what the ravens did so succesfully. We have the corners to do it. To beat the bungholes you have to pressure Burrow. These cucks don't turn the ball over so you have to at least pressure them enough to give yourself a chance.

The Chiefs have one thing left to do: just go out there and let your nuts hang!

duncan_idaho 01-22-2023 09:33 PM

They've got the right to talk trash right now. 3 straight, including the one that mattered the most.

KC is going to have to play clean and have a pretty close to healthy Mahomes to break the streak.

Re-watching the previous matchup... things that stand out:

1. The Chiefs' O showed some nice counters to what the Bengals had done to them in the second half. Good balance, consistently finding success. Sans the turnover to Kelce, the offense was good (Touchdown, touchdown, missed FG).

2. The defense was noticeably better with Gay in the game vs. Darius Harris. Hopefully Spagnuolo notices that when they're prepping this week.

3. The Bengals' OL played REALLY well in this game. Some of it is Burrow getting the ball out quickly, but the right side of the line held up well against the Chiefs.

4. Semaje Perrine is a beast. I think he gives them more than Mixon, honestly.

5. Carlos Dunlap played a really good game for KC in this one.

6. Burrow gets it out so quickly. Have to take approaches that focus on that. Press the WRs. Get hands up on the DL. Spy Burrow with Gay and have him get in passing lanes. Etc. Mix it up, but come in planning to have to counter that quick game.

Oh, and...

7. Most of the Chiefs' operation/success on offense in the 2nd half was Mahomes playing from within the pocket and operating in the flow of the offense. Not much freelancing/scrambling. I find that encouraging considering his mobility is likely to be less than usual

I def hope that the Zebras stay out of the jump balls more

I'm just embracing myself for the bullshit "Burrow chucks up a duck to Chase" and a horseshit PI call is made because the "WR is trying to come back for the ball".

KC is going to have to play clean and have a pretty close to healthy Mahomes to break the streak.

Am I remembering this wrong or did the Bengals have a ton of success attacking the deep middle of the field?

Thornhill and Reid have played pretty well lately, so hopefully we have better success defending that.

I do remember McDuffie holding up really well in coverage on the outside.

They have to win. Because having 5 straight AFC Championship games at home and only winning 2 of them would be a nightmare I'm not prepared for.

The biggest thing that stood out for the Bengals offensively was Semaje Perrine just playing a great game. He had 150 APY and was a nightmare on 3rd downs.

Lael Collins played a really nice game for the Bengals on the right side, and Jonah Williams played well, too. Will be critical to see how that looks in this one.

At this point in the season, I would take the Chiefs' DL group over the Bills.
