goose Posted December 20, 2020 Author Share Posted December 20, 2020 First half was 29:57 of great KC football. The last three seconds? Go ahead and leave the punt alone next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted December 27, 2020 Author Share Posted December 27, 2020 Defense doing it's job, holding the Falcons scoreless up to the botched trick play. The Chiefs are such a strong team, why they won't just settle in and straight up beat the other team is frustrating. Just shows you how tough it is to sustain success...the mental discipline needed to simply go about business, Patriots style, is rare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted January 1, 2021 Author Share Posted January 1, 2021 Mahomes is reportedly sitting out this last game, which seems the obvious right decision. I won't jinx the team by bringing up the fact that of the NFL QBs that sat week 17 and then got a bye, three of four lost their next game. Go Chiefs! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't jinx the team by bringing up the fact that of the NFL QBs that sat week 17 and then got a bye, three of four lost their next game. Go Chiefs! Much like Mahomes did in 2017, Chad Hence will dazzle in a Week 17 start and lead the Chiefs as the opening day starter when they open next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted January 11, 2021 Author Share Posted January 11, 2021 Cleveland Browns sports analyst had this to say about facing Travis Kelce next weekend... Kelce finished second in the NFL in receiving yards, only behind Bills star Stefon Diggs. His 1,416 yards set a single-season record by a tight end, breaking George Kittle’s 2018 mark. Downfield, Kelce moves elegantly. He swiftly sits in soft zones and can run away from safeties in man coverage. When plays break down, he knows where to flow as Mahomes scrambles. Through 16 games, he’s been unguardable. Since Week 8, Kelce has had five 100-plus yard games. Including back-to-back 136 yard games against Miami and Denver. Brian Flores and Vic Fangio are two of the sharpest defensive minds and neither had an answer for the Chiefs’ walking mismatch. The Browns rank 28th against opposing tight ends and it’s going to take a few days of film study for me to even speculate on how to slow him down. https://www.cleveland.com/browns/2021/01/cleveland-browns-vs-kansas-city-chiefs-preview-scouting-kansas-city-and-how-they-match-up.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted January 11, 2021 Author Share Posted January 11, 2021 Same analyst, on the problem of stopping Tyreek Hill... Hill and Lamar Jackson are the fastest football players on earth. The Browns really struggle against Jackson’s speed and I worry Hill won’t be much different. Getting Denzel Ward back helps a lot. When defenses slow Hill, it’s by playing two high safeties and keeping a top corner (like Ward) on him underneath. That will likely be the Browns’ plan. Lots of two-high quarters coverage (Cover 4). The issue that creates is it opens the middle of the field, which Kelce owns. It’s cliche but the Chiefs truly are a “pick your poison” quagmire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted January 11, 2021 Author Share Posted January 11, 2021 And on the Chiefs' defense... ...like the Browns, this Chiefs defense doesn’t piece together stops or force many punts. They play opportunist ball, which should bode well for a Kevin Stefanski game plan. Remember, the Chiefs trailed in every postseason game last year, and still won the Super Bowl. This season they’ve won their past seven games by one score, an NFL record. Are the Chiefs ripe for an upset, or did they just grow bored of regular-season ball? We don’t know yet.

goose Posted January 11, 2021 Author Share Posted January 11, 2021 A couple more things... The Chiefs ranked 31st against the run this year, while the Browns ranked 3rd in rushing yards. The Browns' rushing game could eat up a lot of clock and, importantly, keep Mahomes off the field. When Mahomes is on the field, he'll have to contend with Browns DE Myles Garrett, who had twelve sacks on the season (6th in the NFL). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Mahomes and Kelce & Co to do magic things; they've got to be on the field. Garrett is good, but I trust Bienemy and Reid to roll the action away from him or call up some quick outs to get the ball moving downfield. On the other hand, Chubb should scare the Chiefs' coaching staff. Hopefully, the Chiefs can bend but not break. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
