As I said in another thread, the Bills were a muffed punt at the 1 and a once-in-43 onside kick recovery from being thoroughly embarrassed 38-10. [Reply]

Other than the quarterback position group, I think the defensive secondary is the strongest unit on the team now. It's an army of shutdown guys back there. [Reply]

A big part of that is the scheme.
For all the escalades that Andy and EB and Mahomes get, Spags, Hitchens, and HB deserve the same. And the Chiefs have somebody in the film room that is a certified RAIN MAN. Absolutely genious. [Reply]

Him screwing up early was actually a good thing. It forced them to pump him up and ensure he got more touches than he normally would. Having both him and Hill in at the same time is like having 2 legs of a track team. [Reply]

Just goes to show that if you have several guys who are very good, you don't have to have an elite "Revis Island" type back there [Reply]

Yep. Half the fucking time I didn’t know who was covering who. I’m so glad we’re done with the “this CB only plays the left side of the field” bullshit. [Reply]
