as far as getting back to the game a big part is going to be the ability to get pressure with only rushing 4. isnt KC's oline banged up ?

will KC blitz often ? baker has been one of the best against the blitz the last half of the year .


and i know mahomes is a master against the blitz

1. Yes, but Mahomes is Houdini back there.

2. Probably

You have no idea what you are in for :-) When I get these hunches, it never ends well for opposing fans :-)

And how many points did they score in most of those games?

Not to mention a majority of the games listed had an abortion of a schedule, too.

:-). You walked right into that.

On a side note, how in the **** do you only score 10 against Houston and 6 (!) against the Raiders?

...and lost to the Jets :-)

Sammy Watkins talking shit about Cleveland.

Yeah, being able to pressure Mahomes when only rushing 4 is huge (you're only mostly screwed as opposed to totally screwed :-)). KC's line is kind of in shambles... I've been surprised they haven't done more to help in that regard when it comes to moving the pocket on rollout plays, utilizing CEH and Bell in the passing game more, etc. The plays are there, but for whatever reason it hasn't been a focus whenever teams have gotten pressure in the past few weeks.

The expectation on defense is they'll try to confuse Baker, which of course includes blitzing at least a fair amount.

Fake news.

both games had 40-50 mph sustained winds off the lake neither team could throw the ball more than 5-10 yds accurately thats why both QB's both games had 100-150 yds passing

Most teams this year have played a similar defense against the chiefs. Mahomes rare struggles are when defenses bring pressure and can cover. Like when you have an elite secondary and a bosa. Cleveland can bring pressure but they can't cover.

For a few weeks kc has had a tiny issue getting some short passes off. But I'm guessing Reid cleaned that the hell up over the past few weeks. If not, there's not much Cleveland can do. Reid will unleash the short game and he is an absolute wizard at it. I think he teased a few glimpses of that with Henne vs LAC. It also helps that kelce is a matchup nightmare in this game.

Yeah, i agree. I mean you go all week putting together a game plan, and then 24 hours before that game you have Tyreke, Watkins, Robinson, and Hardman all put on the close contact covid list, and then have to sign 3 guys from the practice squad to play. Would you expect that game to be held against you? Honestly, its like you guys brushing off the Chargers loss in week 17. The Browns beat the jets 9 out of 10 times if not for that bs.
[Reply]

But you all have Chubb and Hunt. Your running game is supposed to be nearly unstoppable, but you couldn't score with your running game when it was windy?
[Reply]

You clearly didnt watch the game, so why comment on it? We tried running the ball, the announcers even showed it multiple times that the Jets kept 9 guys in the box the entire game.
