That's 2 games in a row they really didn't do a fucking thing. Carr had all fucking night to throw. Guys are dropping shoulders and not wrapping up. YAC is killing us. Receivers are running wide open.
I will give them some credit in that I thought they stopped the run fairly well against the Raiders.

Wow this is by far the dumbest post of the last 24 hours, and that says A LOT. [Reply]
In no way do I want to suggest that the defense was good enough last night because it wasn’t, but, upon rewatching this video of highlights and focusing on the pass rush, I was actually surprised how close they were to Carr on several plays: https://youtu.be/3xccQ_kxVhc
Carr just balled out and it shows when you look at every play. Some of it even a little lucky I’m sure. Seems to me also that we could never get pressure in two areas — if it came off the edge, he stepped up. If it came up the middle, he could checkdown or get outside the pocket. [Reply]

Yep.
The defense wasn't good last night but it's time to face the fact that Carr understands Gruden's offense - he's not the same QB he used to be. In fact, go look at his rating trend from 2014 until this year:

After I watched that whole video, I think he played even better last night than the first game. Some of those plays were not easy at all. There were like 3 throws to Agholor alone that I was like.... damn.
We just need our pass rush to work on the same page better. In that game it was like they weren’t rushing with any plan, and we could never win in multiple matchups at the same time. [Reply]

Carr is a pretty good QB...Gruden has taught him well. [Reply]

Our defensive line might as well have not existed in the Raiders game. The Raiders offensive line shut them down completely. It was sad.
The Chiefs made a major mistake not going after Carlos Dunlap and Yannick Ngakoue at the trade deadline. Adding those 2 guys would improve our RDE position drastically. It would have also allowed rotation for Frank Clark. [Reply]

Yeah, and Orlovsky pointed it out too this morning when he said not to over analyze the situation and understand that the Raiders are built specifically to match up with the Chiefs.
He also said he has zero doubt the Chiefs will win the SB again, which is interesting from a third person POV. [Reply]
