In case you want to feel disrespected
It isn't easy to find disrespect these days, most have finally woken up about what we've been saying since the Chiefs drafted Mahomes.
Well I found precisely ONE power ranking that doesn't have the Chiefs #1. https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl-power-r...053847579.html HOW DARE YOU Send rage Put it on the chalkboard We're the new Patriots |

I just don't see how the Ravens model is sustainable. This is who Jackson is, for better or worse. |

I don't know maybe it has to do with the Ravens have lost to KC each time they have played including last year in a not particularly close game, Lamar hasn't made it to even 1 AFCCG and the Chiefs are the reigning SB Champs?

That's why that first draft profile that Soren eventually read aloud on the air was so meaningful. Everything in that was exactly what the Chiefs were missing all those years. We knew it is what you need to get playoff wins because we saw Elway and Peyton do it to us for decades |

He had 3 carries in game 1 last year in blowing out the Dolphins while throwing for 324 yards and 5 TDs. He followed that up with 16 carries against the Cardinals. He may have averaged 12 carries per game but his rushing from game-to-game was bipolar. He rushed 14 or more times in 7 games. He only had 1 game at or near his season average - 11 rushes against Buffalo. |

I hate that Breeland is out for the Ravens/Patriots games. We're not gonna get the best idea of KC's secondary against Lamar in that game. While Cam Newton is not a huge threat in the passing game, it still sucks to not have one of your best guys against a Belichick team. |

Except I would be happy as hell if they run it a lot more. Take away some of the pass rush shots to Mahomes' body. It would be epic if a dude with his talent can stay healthy into his 40's. A good run game could really help a ton in this goal.

He needs to take fewer hit but Reid isn't going to go all Martyball anytime soon.

Andy Reid's most run-heavy year in KC was 2013 with 442 attempts. It has gone down every year since, except for a small spike in 2015.
BTW, the Ravens ran the ball 596 times last year. |

There just aren’t many guys in league history to come into the league throwing like Lamar and then develop into an upper echelon passer. I can’t think of any really.
Throwing the ball from the pocket at a high level is such an art form that most NFL QBs can’t do it, which is why you see teams cling to the ones who can. Those guys last. If they were easily replaceable, they wouldn’t get huge contracts. I don’t see it with Lamar, and I don’t think we ever will. Without the running ability, he’s a mediocre QB. It’s fair to say that he has the running ability, so who cares? It’s just going to take one bad injury for his career to fall apart. Mahomes’s elusiveness is great and takes him to another level, but he could have Brady mobility and still be one of the greats.

Did you watch him on Sunday? He already looks like a better passer. He's been studying Mahomes, you can tell. He's now manipulating receivers open with the threat of the run. He's creating passing lanes using his feet and then hitting guys between the numbers on the move. He's no longer just seeing lanes and running, like 2 seasons ago. Anyone who thinks he's going to crash and burn hasn't been watching him, and didn't watch him on Sunday. He HAS progressed yet again. If you think he's just some running QB who's mediocre at throwing, then i question what you're watching.

Not sure I agree about the bust rate. I think we see more have immediate success than in the past, but you can’t scheme longevity. Eventually the average or bad QBs get exposed.
