Re-watched our offensive possessions in Cincinnati.
1st drive - Moved the ball relatively easily until a batted pass near the goal line. Settled for FG.
2nd - Sack on 2nd down. Nobody open on 3rd. Couldn't connect on a bomb.
3rd - Had to convert a 4th and 4 but scored a TD easily after.
4th - Several chunk plays followed by a TD.
5th - Multiple chunk plays. Defense tightened up near the goal line. Mahomes TD dive on 4th down.
6th - Moved the ball well until the Kelce fumble.
7th - Moving the ball until Mahomes was tripped up trying to run for the first on 3rd and short. Andy stupidly tries the FG
instead of trusting Mahomes to pick up 3 yards.
Only one punt. Two sacks. KC was able to get chunk plays fairly consistently, especially on the ground. Solid success in the screen game. Balanced attack overall.
I think Mahomes and Andy really know how to attack this defense now. They were a rare Kelce fumble and a batted pass from probably adding another 10-14 points. And they'd have likely kept the last drive alive had Andy not been a huge pussy and settled for the FG.
Also, Mahomes didn't do a whole lot of scrambling in this game. Mostly stayed in the pocket. Hopefully that will bode well for the rematch.
