The biggest obstacle this team has, and has always had, is Andy. Hes the biggest double edge sword coach ever.
Denver is garbage. The ONLY shot they have is for Andy to pull the mother of all Andys and completely shit his pants on the sideline.
The guy is great with Qbs, but his inability to get out of his own way in the biggest moments, thats why he does not have multiple superbowl rings.
Whether its time managenent, playcalling with a lead, i mean dude has to own the record for most blown leads, along with 2 of the most legendary playoff collapses in nfl history, or whether its keeping guys around like Ol buddy Bob Sutton who he knew wasn't getting it done and contributed to those legendary collapses.
This TEAM has the talent to win it all. We had it last year.
Does the coach? I'll believe that when i see it. [Reply]
Spags was deceiving Brady all night last weekend. Hard to think a rookie is ready mentally for what a 42 year QB that’s seen everything could not beat.
Showing man but switching to zone last minute.
Breeland INT. Showing man pre-snap makes Brady believe he'll stick with Edelman on the slant. Great defensive play call and execution. pic.twitter.com/xj9xJVWnb5
#Chiefs have this designed so Jones or Niemann will get to Brady. It’s 5 on 5, only the RB can help. Niemann will twist around. Jones will pinch in so Ferentz will have to lunge on the angle and turn his shoulders towards the sidelines and it’s over. #JacobsEyeInTheSkypic.twitter.com/s8sNYjg7NG
4th and 7 here. Brady is feeling the heat. Corner blitz is going to be coming off the edge. Edelman is open on the out route but Brady hurries his throw. #JacobsEyeInTheSky#Chiefspic.twitter.com/id4iixsQOL
Ragland with a perfectly timed blitz off of play-action. Still gets up and hits Brady. Helmet may have contacted Brady’s elbow. Brady feels it when his teammate pulls him up. #JacobsEyeInTheSky#Chiefspic.twitter.com/waQXYVpIMu

1. classic letdown game
2. kind of worried about the Broncos generating a ton of pressure on Mahomes
3. this will be our best rungame test since Minnesota. I hope the team doesn't backslide.

how did this happen
Two reasons. One is Spags and the other is HB. Honey Badger is a big factor why. He’s always getting guys lined up in the correct position and making sure they know their assignments. He was worth every penny [Reply]
There's no doubt this game could turn into another beatdown, I just think it will be close (20-24, or similar - roughly the same margin of victory w/ a TD or less).
Flacco was misreable in the last game. KC got a fumble recovery for a TD, but only scored 3 TDs in 12 drives (had 13, but clock expired).
KC scored 13 points in their first three drives, one of 8 plays and another of 13 plays. After that, early in the 2nd quarter, KC only had 1 drive with 7 or more plays and they punted on that one.
So, first 3 were scores and then punt, end of half, punt, punt, TD, punt, punt, FG, punt. Yes, I know that Pat was hurt, left and Moore played most of that game.
Denver had a 10 play drive for a TD to open up the game and went downhill from there. They played like that for the most part with Flacco, but with Allen and now Lock - they've played differently and better on offense early.
And, with Sanders in SF - guys have now had several games to figure out where they fit in that offense with Sutton. Fant, Heuerman, Hamilton, Patrick, Beck, Lindsay and Freeman are putting together some nice games over the last month.
The key is still their defense - if they can play well, it limits the hero that Lock has to be - if he has to air it out, then they're likely up Schitts Creek.
Very tall order and an unrealistic and wild expectation to think Denver can walk in and win - I'm just looking for them to be competitive and play a tight game. Do that and I'll be happy.
This team is nowhere near where they need to be, but the last two weeks have been good to see considering the start.
KC will win, there's no doubt in my mind... I just think Denver is going to play much better than most expect. [Reply]
