Another thing I noticed was that mahomes took a lot of snaps yesterday under center. And he looked plenty comfortable doing it. As someone posted earlier kelce in the backfield was also a new wrinkle. I imagine we'll see a lot more of these things in our new look offense. [Reply]

Tonight was an aberration. Andy Reid isn't going to turn into Marty Schotteheimer. This is a passing team with quality running backs, and it's going to win or lose on the arm of Patrick Mahomes.
You think Bell came to KC for 3 snaps per game? This will become 50/50 between him and CEH, if not 60/40 Bell [Reply]
If you noticed multiple times last night they showed the bills Mahomes shotgun with split backs next to him, it's just one of those backs was Kelce, could easily see that set with Bell in that spot. [Reply]

Maybe. I'm sure it had to do with the terrible pass protection over the last few weeks. The weather. Either way its nice to know we can win this way [Reply]

This should have been a 14-17 easy win that only closed when Buffalo scored a garbage time TD.
Andy almost pulled a Marty
Eh, Andy was just showing off to the league that he knew how to design and call a run-centric offense as well as a passing attack. Think of it as a demonstration, if you like.
Seriously, I highly doubt Andy would've called the game like that if it had been dry and light breezes. He saw pretty quickly that he could consistently run it, so he did. How many times have CPers complained that he doesn't stick with the run enough? Well, now he has. Case closed. [Reply]

It's Andy Reid.
Yeah, I'd bet that there will be games where Bell hardly sees the ball, and others where CEH doesn't either. And a game where neither gets many touches. CPers will shit themselves in each scenario.
Seriously though, it does make some sense to have Bell become the lead RB for at least a few games, so that CEH can stay strong for the end of the season, because we are undoubtedly going to make a run in the playoffs, and also so CEH can observe and hopefully learn some things from a veteran and former rushing champion like Bell. It can only make Clyde a better RB in the long run. [Reply]
