The team that's 2-4? :-)

It's damn near impossible to have a team that has an amazing offense and a shut down defense. Shit doesn't happen anymore.

Yeah, that was exactly my point. :-)

This pretty much seals it that KC is winning the super bowl in a shutout.

The defense isn't going to carry this team. It shouldn't ever be expected to.

Help out and make the other team punt a few times. Maybe throw in a turnover here and there.

Look at the person that you quoted. Yes....yes he is.

Whoa. This is a terrible take. Put to crack pipe down, bud.
[Reply]

Let me get this straight, you are going to argue our defense can close out a game when the offense is struggling?

Or

Is your take that the offense CANNOT struggle with this defense?
[Reply]

The defense has closed out 2 games already this year with the offense struggling.

And if you're going to pick an element of this team that can least afford to struggle, it's the one that has 2 HoFers and a shitload of resources and time dedicated to.

My 'take' is that you're fucking retarded.

Philly,

But we are not creating turnover is our major issue right now.

The same Eagles defense that gave up 35 to the Lions offense?

Yea, they've been good since, but they haven't exactly played anybody either. Pretty sure the Lions offense is easily the best they've faced, and I don't think they're as good as the #s suggest with Goff at QB.

Spags is a very frustrating guy to watch.

You can see him come out and screw their plan all game, and then there's one or two calls that get made, that just undo literally everything.

Shit like backing off on a rattled Josh Allen on 3rd and 2 from the 1 with the stadium shaking with noise. Boom. Out of a jam, plus a Randy Reidtard classic defensive timeout, and they walk right down the field for a td.

Or shit like putting Davante mother fucking Adams in single coverage.

Or like the zero blitz on 3rd n 27 at Cincinnatti last year.

We've seen the guy put qbs like Brady in a box for an entire game and totally shut him down, so the ability is there.

And when your offense is struggling, you just can't have the "oh boy yeah. Gosh I'd really like to have that one back and maybe call something different" plays you lament in the press conferences.

Defense was not in any way to fault for this loss. Yeah they gave up a long drive for a TD. That’s what happens against an elite QB sometimes. They gave up 24 points.

The Chiefs offense had two golden opportunities to win this and they ended it in a 3 and out and INT.

This one was on the offense
[Reply]

Do you remember the games against the Packers, Giants, and Cowboys last season? Do you not remember just how much our defense outplayed our offense?
[Reply]

It's on Mahomes for sure. His INT's were really bad and he held the ball too long at times. He had a few good drives, but for the most part he was too sloppy. He's gotta be a lot better next time around.

That said, I'm not too confident in the defense for a rematch. They were extremely fortunate Buffalo scored zero points on 2 trips into the Red Zone. Could have easily been a 38 point game for Buffalo.
