Let’s talk about the Eagles (Super Bowl edition!)

[RunKC]

Well fellas what do we think?

[Rainbarrel]

If they run up the score on bad teams. That hasn't worked well for Lamar and Allen. *Winning close games builds team chemistry. Fight to the last whistle mentality is just SOP

Edit- *could be part of Andy's season long preparation for the postseason

Two weeks for Andy and Spags to cook something up…?

There’s zero doubt in my mind the Chiefs are winning this game and it wouldn’t surprise me if we curbstomp them.

I agree with a lot of this, but defensive scheme? Their run D sucks (which teams don't try to abuse), their pass-rush is absurd and could definitely exploit a weakness like our tackles, and they're good in the secondary. LBs are definitely exploitable.

I think Andy and co will devise a great plan, and obviously they haven't seen anything like a Mahomes-led offense, but I'm not sure how it's a great matchup. The 9ers, for example, would've been better. Much better run D, a less diverse pass-rush that we could scheme against 1 guy, and worse in the secondary.

We need to go up 13-0 and then remind Hurts this was the score when Saban replaced you with Tua. Probably Chris Jones narrating at the line.

Seriously though, Hurts is not a great thrower of the football, poor mans Lamar Jackson. I feel 5x better going into this Superbowl matchip than the last two AFCC games. If we don't turn it over.

I got it 35-20 in a no doubter by halftime.

Every year the Bills come into the post season with a highly decorated defense in terms of stats, then they get sliced up. Regular season means nothing now you're not playing Tyler Heineken or Danny Dimes in a Superbowl

Even Tyler Heineken put up 35 vs these guys.

Their pass rush is good no doubt but they play the most vanilla ass zone scheme and rarely come out of it….keep Pat upright and he’s going to carve them up.

When has KC ever taken advantage of that against any team? I think of all stats one could come up with regarding a team that stat is the least relevant.

Nah, he might not be the second coming of Montana, but he is a better passer than Jackson.

Seriously. I'm getting tired of the weak takes around here.

Nah.

Anyone that argues that Hurts is a better QB than Burrow seriously needs a head examination.
