We keep finding ways to win, despite ourselves.

The horror of it all.

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

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.

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.

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.

Okay, let's say I agree with you about the context.

Then why is it when the Chiefs push it past about 30% rushing vs. 70% passing they lose more games? And/or the games are always closer, and the Chiefs scoring efficiency declines significantly?

The sweet spot for the Chiefs has been right around 60/40 in the Mahomes era, give or take a couple percentage points. Don't think they've lost a single game when they've kept that ratio.

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.

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.
