Just don't think they will have an answer for a power running game Toney PLUS Hardman.
Their DBs aren't good enough, and they don't have an all-star LB.
I agree on everything for the Chiefs but then you go quite astray on them.
You realize Pratt and Wilson are pretty fucking good right? Pratt has been, arguably, the best coverage linebacker in the NFL this year and Wilson is one of the best all-around LBs. They are more than fine at LB.
Their DBs? You should mean their CBs because their other "DBs" are two of the best safeties in the league at their respective positions. [Reply]

Did we call timeout and then challenge (or is the graphic wrong)? If so that freaking TO cost us 3-7 points at the end of the half.
And of course the shitty spot didn't help. Or the fact that Burton doesn't know how to fall down when he has the first down. Burton falls down, no wasted TO, we probably go to the SB.
If you watch the end of that game you see Patrick missing an open travis down the middle when they were dropping 8 in to coverage. [Reply]

Wear them boys out.
They don't necessarily "line up" with 3 down linemen. They will have 4 down linemen and one will drop after the snap, often on Kelce's side if he isn't wide. Vaguely similar to what KC does on zone blitz plays. [Reply]
How long until the Bengals have to pay the piper and gut their roster? Just IMO, the Bengals have an advantage because their team has consistently drafted at the top of each round. Burrow was hurt his first year so the Bengals got a second #1 pick on their team.
At some point, the bill is going to come due and they won't be able to keep everyone unless they all take well below market value. Or is this going to be another Patriots situation where the AFC North just sucks and lets the Bengals ride to one of the top seeds each year? [Reply]

In a few months. Pratt, both starting safties and Perine are notable FA's to deal with while they try to reset the QB market with Joe Burrow. [Reply]

And I don't see Bates coming back. They lowballed the fuck out of him before this season. [Reply]
