Chiefs Reid is a terrible chess player - Page 5

davewan · 06:30 PM

Andy Reid is apparently incapable of thinking several moves ahead. As an NFL head coach, he should have been able to quickly think through what he would have done if he had the ball at the goal line in a tie game with 2:30 to go and 4 downs to score. He should have been able to easily deduce that he would do exactly what Cincinnati did. But he didn't. And that's absolutely incredible.

Sadly, it's clear that he has no idea that his drop dead core philosophy should be, "If you're going to beat me, it's not going to be because my best player was standing on the sidelines, it's going to be because you stopped him while he was on the field."

Because Reid could not bring himself to do what was necessary - in other words, to let the other team score - to get his best player back on the field with time on the clock to win the game, he permitted Cincinnati to win that game. It was HIS failure and his alone.

It's not a question of not competing on defense if you let the other team score. It's a question of what in that situation is your best chance to win. And the Chiefs' best chance to win wasn't to stop Cincinnati. They were going to score. The question was how much time - if any - would be on the clock with they did. The Chiefs' best chance to win was to get Mahomes back on the field as fast as possible, no matter the cost.

No matter how big a steaming pile of dogsh*t the officials were, no matter how stupid Spagnuolo was in how he failed to stop Chase, no matter the holding call on the kick return touchdown or Tyreke dropping the ball in the first half...everything comes down to Reid's lack of a philosophy that says if he's going to lose, it's not going to be with his best guy standing on the sidelines.

Is this a Rabblerouser mult? Maybe some of his offspring? His gay lover? NTTIAWWT.

You have to consider the current dynamics in the game though... the Chiefs defense was getting shredded by the Bengals, having just given up a 3rd and 27 conversion AND the refs were calling a ridiculously tight game in terms of defensive penalties.

Given those two dynamics, the probability of the Chiefs holding the Bengals to 3 and still leaving enough time for Mahomes to respond was not good.

Yet everyone is blaming the refs. If the Chiefs put one decent TD drive together in the second half and score 10 vs 3 we most likely win.

If KC even attempts to stop Chase vs letting him score two TDs over 60yds without being touched we win.

I thought using a mult was a banbable offense for the “real” username? Especially to troll.

But they did stop them. IT WAS EPIC. The refs didn't give them a chance to even drive up the field into FG range.

It didn't help that Andy was being conservative with his game management.

4th and 6 at the Cincy 45 yard line towards the end of the third quarter and Andy punts it away with Cincy scoring a TD on their next drive.

Flashback six weeks ago and Andy was calling a fake punt on a 4th and 7 at the beginning of the 4th quarter from his own 47 yard line vs. the Raiders.

Andy Reid can only be aggressive when he's up by double digits?
