Agreed. They got close twice and blocked another one. Something needs fixed there. [Reply]
If I’m BB, I want the Chiefs defense out there as long as possible. So, if the pats get up early, you take away the short to intermediate routes and take a chance of the lower percentage bombs keeping pace. Long, time-consuming drives for the pats, and hope the defense is gassed in the 4th in a close game for a late score to win. [Reply]
Bill wants Mahomes "in the pocket" with much stunting pressure coming up the middle from the interior d-line. All the tape on Mahomes getting sacked comes from up the middle. Between the 20's he will double TH/Kelce depending. In the red zone he will automatically double Kelce.
Which leaves Watkins and D Williams still with either single coverage or no coverage:-)
He will take away all the short stuff (run game and Kelce) with blitzing so Mahomes and Hill don't have time to hook up on anything deep. Force our offensive line to play smart and deal with stunts, slants, and zone blitzes making Mahomes decide quickly.
To me, the biggest affect BB has is getting in these guys' heads during the week and get them double guessing too much on game day. I don't think they can reasonable take enough away from our offense to make it matter unless we get defensive about it. We need to have "dictate the terms" approach to our offense and shove it down their throats and make them react to us. [Reply]
