This is why it's so hard to be dominant in the NFL. Teams scout and coach your tendencies. When you are missing a large percentage of your defensive players and the offensive line is still learning to block, it's going to look bad.
The defense is a real disappointment. The offense is having to try to beat the two deep safeties with the front four getting significant pressure. The running game is non-existent.
Until the Chiefs can prove otherwise; teams will bracket Hill and Kelce and force the other players to beat them. So far... It's working for the Browns. It should be; they are loaded with high draft picks from being terrible for so long. [Reply]

We can always just kneel after that. Instead, we gave them a chance at basically a free play.

Yup not complicated, they are dominating the line of scrimmage and running it down our throats. We are getting our shit pushed in on defense. [Reply]

You gotta play the best and you usually play the best in the playoffs. Right now, Brown looks like total shit. Not mediocre. Not he just had some mis-steps. He's getting ****ing smoked. Play after play.
Yeah it means Brown is not an elite LT. He could still be a very good LT though.
Barrett would probably smoke Fisher too if left all alone like that. Even in years when Fisher made the pro bowl. [Reply]
Even if we do lose this game. Oh well, Brownies had this game circled and they have a good team. Chiefs team needs to quit pretending they can just show up and win. [Reply]
