Chiefs need to start controlling the clock instead of letting the other teams have 8-minute drives every quarter.
Yes indeed take the pressure off of Mahomes he doesn't have to do it all like he did in Texas Tech.
I have to tone down my enthusiasm because of this wet papersack O-line. [Reply]

Not that Amerson is all that good but this time it wasn't his fault.
I agree- the first was iffy at best- but Amerson did not turn to look for the ball. The second was a joke. Then they failed to call an obvious PI in the fourth quarter in the end zone against Houston. :-) [Reply]

We aren't built to be a power running team. Our running backs are smallish and our offensive line is built to be mobile and attack the edges. We invested in the passing game. Pass on offense and get a lead to protect the defense.
The entire team is built for Mahomes to carry it. [Reply]
I'm hoping Eric Murray has a good day in the second half i really root for him. He may not be a starter but we need him for contribution when he fills in.
He got some experience last year he can build up that. [Reply]

Well Eric Fisher needs to fucking play like he is a 1:1 draft pick of his class.
He just needs to play like a first round draft pick should. [Reply]

The entire offensive line played poorly, especially the left side. We didn't stretch the field again which puts more pressure on the line. Typical Andy. [Reply]

Gonna need Murray and Watts to step up big. [Reply]

Hunt and Ware are bigger, power backs.
Our OL are bigger, mostly stronger guys. Erving, Morse and LDT all put up 30 or more bench reps before they started an NFL weight program and Fisher has always been a much better run blocker.
This ****ing offense is built to power run too. It’s a goddamn disgrace that they aren’t better at it. [Reply]
