To me, you see it - if you can protect your QB, there's plenty of opportunities to exploit that back end. Humphrey didn't look good in that game and he isn't healthy now. The safeties and linebackers can definitely get mixed up passing things off out of condensed/bunch alignments.
On a wet field, rushing the passer is going to be more difficult. Covering receivers is more difficult. Defense is going to be more difficult.
If we are neutralizing the defenses to a degree with the field conditions, to me that does play more into the Chiefs favor because they have the superior passer who is more likely to win if this does become a shootout. |
I’ve watched all of that game. The protection is the key thing. Nacua and Kupp were schemed into a lot of space in that one. Demarcus Robinson also made some nice plays as the third receiving option. Someone stepping up to do that for the Chiefs will be important.
This could be a big Noah Gray game, I think.
