Are they in base? Okay Kelce, Tyreek or Hardman/Gray will be 1v1. Are they in nickel or dime defense on 1st/2nd down or 3rd and <5? Okay we’re pounding the rock. I foresee a ton of 11 and 12 personnel which is going to force the defenses to be really frustrated bc we could have success running or passing

Seriously WTF do you do if you are a defense looking at this formation with the Chiefs weapons, QB and new OL? You are literally ****ed

Could it POTENTIALLY be better than 2018? Yes.
But it won't be. And the reasoning is simple. It doesn't have to be. The 2018 _efense was so bad that Patrick had to do what he did to win games. You didn't see that much in 2019 or 2020 (outside of a few isolated games here and there), because those defenses could actually gets stops and get teams off the field. Not always consistently, but enough to where your offense didn't feel they needed to score everytime they had the ball. So, no, the 2021 offense will not be as good as the 2018 offense, because they won't ever need to be. |

It will be hard to replicate defenses being caught completely off-guard for what Mahomes is capable of.
We might be more efficient though |

If CEH proves he can be on par with 2018 Kareem Hunt and Mecole Hardman can be on par with 2018 Sammy Watkins then the 2021 offense will be superior to 2018.

We're lacking the tertiary weapon that the 2018 Chiefs had in both Kareem Hunt and Sammy Watkins.
CEH needs to take a big step this season -- he simply didn't grasp the passing elements of the playbook, and even if he does it's not obvious he'll ever be Kareem Hunt. That being said, I'm actually pretty bullish on Hardman. I don't think he reaches Sammy heights, but I think he'll become a legit #2 this season. |

2021 O Line>>>2018 O Line
Watkins>Hardman Hunt>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>CEH It'll be close but I'd lean 2018 simply because Kareem was so much better than CEH. |

It’s debatable that the 2021 OL was better than the 2018.
Brown and Fisher are both Pro Bowl LTs Thuney blows all 2018 guards out Creed Humphrey is probably good but Morse was definitely good RG is a question in 2021, LDT was pretty good in 2018 RT is a question in 2021, Schwartz was the best in the league |

I think they'll be much more efficient.
May be a lot fewer highlight reel plays, because they won't be as necessary. |

Why aren't they necessary?
Explosive plays are always "necessary" because they're explosive plays. Why make it harder on yourself to have to go on drives with more plays? Chunk plays are always gonna be the choice. Last edited by O.city; 06-16-2021 at 07:23 AM.. |

Not many are talking about Mahomes' improvement as a factor, but he's definitely honed his skills and improved his accuracy since 2018. He just didn't have the line to be able to show off consistently last year.

like off-schedule, off-platform Mahomes throwing the ball while horizontal 50 yards kind of plays. I expect they'll be much more efficient and less reliant on Mahomes to just do magical shit as their gameplan. I'm not saying they're going to leash anyone, I'm saying they should be able to run the plays as they're designed more efficiently. |
