He made a couple all-time plays to seal the win, but he's not good. Plus, that throw was REALLY bad. Like, one of the worst you'll see. [Reply]

Dude, you're forgetting the surgical pass he dropped in to Reek and then the crisp pass to Kelce on the drive right before the INT.
He ended up with 66 yards on just 6 completions and the .2 YPA less than Mahomes.

He was 6-8 for 68 yards (75% completion) and an INT.
Yea the INT was not good but he didn't play bad otherwise. [Reply]

I've love to know more about what happened on the INT. It seems pretty clear to me that they told him to take a chance and chuck it. I just can't otherwise believe that Chad Henne of all people would come out and refuse to do anything but chuck it deep without otherwise being prompted to do it. [Reply]

He did just fine.

That required a circus catch from Tyreek.
He wasn't horrible in spot duty (which is what you hope for from a backup QB) but he is not good. The truth is, without Mahomes, our offense loses half its teeth. [Reply]

In his press conference just after the game, Andy said that the interception "is on him". He said he shouldn't have called that play and it was his fault for the turnover.
Henne was 23 of 32 for 217 yards and 2 TD's against the Chargers and that was without Hill, Kelce, Darrel Williams and CEH (or the starting offensive line).
Henne can win a game or two for the Chiefs, as long as Andy gameplans for him instead of Mahomes all week. [Reply]
The Bills in the first game sold out to stop Mahomes and got pounded by the running game.
You'd have to assume they'd do almost a 180 and sell out to stop the short stuff and the running game and force Henne to beat them.
With Hardman and Hill and Kelce out there catching passes, that actually might be possible. It only takes one missed tackle for Hill or Hardman to go the distance. [Reply]

Reid took blame after the game but yea it would be interesting to see if someone ran the wrong route or what. [Reply]

Someone (can't remember now if it was in the post-game presser or in a titter thing) basically said that Henne was told, "throw it deep," on that play. So he did.
What I didn't like was that it was into double coverage. And way long, but whatever. Th decision to throw it into double coverage was what bothered me about the play. Throw it deep, fine. But at least throw it away from double coverage. [Reply]
