Why can’t we catch the ball? Kielce, Pringle, and Tyreek all dropped catchable passes. those drops really screwed our offensive production. Tyreek’s ‘drop’ led to an interception.
What is going on? Are Kielce and Tyreek injured? What do we do for this season? Drafting or free agency are good answers for next season, not this one. the dropped passes aren’t such an issue with Denver but come playoffs, they will be really large.
I have no idea what is going on or why this is happening now and would love to hear any comments/suggestions. [Reply]

Last night the drops. In other games it was drops and fumbles.
Mahomes isn't Osweiler but he is not in MVP form. He's playing like a top ten QB instead.
This offense badly needs more than 1 WR.
When teams take away explosive vertical plays and limit our RPO game we need to be patient and efficient...which we often aren't.
I don’t doubt we need several wide receivers, but what happened to the idea that Mahomes could make average receivers look good like he did with Albert Wilson in his first game against Denver? [Reply]

We're not playing average starters after Hill.
Pringle, Hardman, etc are bottom of the roster types.
We don't need to add superstars but we need 1 more good starter. [Reply]
I don't know, but at this point, it is who they are.
We need to make a serious commitment to running the ball, hit the backs in the flats, run screens, and just understand that it's not happening downfield. [Reply]

If we want our offense to flourish when they take away our deep shots and RPO we need to go West Coast offense.
I got excited when I saw a play last night that looked perfect WCO but it was just an isolated incident. [Reply]
I really only saw 2 or 3 bad throws last night. The sidearm throw was bad. The INT to Reek was high and hot but probably catchable. Other than that he hit guys in the hands several times and they just dropped the ball. [Reply]
There's not reason to add another WR if Mahomes won't throw them the ball.
He never plays that well against Denver defenses with Fangio at the helm, but last night was back to old Mahomes of this season where he was tentative and throwing not to make mistakes. [Reply]
One thing that I've noticed about Hill is that he tends to catch the ball with chest instead of in his hands. Several of the tipped/intercepted balls were off his hands. Teams seem to key on swatting at the ball to force fumbles. The Kelce non-catch/fumble was close to a game changing play. [Reply]
