Chiefs Credit where it’s due to the defene - Page 3

Washington’s offense isn’t great, but it isn’t terrible either. Without their best player, this defense played a great game. Need to get Jones back and hopefully figure out the right role for him whether that’s moving him back inside full time or what.

I thought Nick Bolton had his best game yet.

Mike Danna and Rashad Fenton deserve mention too.

I think Fire is what we lack, have to have enthusiasm to play defense.

Sneed, Bolton, Danna. Those young players all had really solid games.

The team, both sides of the ball, looked completely different in the second half than they have all season.

Obviously Spags has needed to better utilize the young guys Veach has given him through the draft. Scrubs like Sorenson and Neimann should be bottom of the chart rotation players at best, not starters.

It’ll never happen but I’d like an explanation as to why Thornhill wasn’t starting. That game proved that he should have been.

That was the fewest points the Washington Football Team has scored this season.

Nice, didn't know that.

-They made moves off-the-field beforehand. Benching Sorenson was huge. Unfortunately Hitchens looked like his injury was serious so we'll be seeing a lot of Neimann with *checks notes* Derrick Henry next on the schedule.

-The end result. All the cards on the table, they only allowed 13 points and not a ton of yards.

The bad:

-WFT's offense isn't good and their best player was banged up so this game doesn't tell us much going forward.

-Pass rush is still a Grand Canyon-sized issue. Guys were open downfield. If our opponent was Buffalo, LAC, Buccaneers, etc. we would have lost big again (due in large part to the offense as well)

Wait, what?

Terry McClaurin is their best player.

Antonio Gibson is having a very CEH type of year, and it’s not just the injury.

Forgot about Sneed.

Great game from him. People were ready to write him off after the first few weeks. No patience with young talent whatsoever.

It’ll get better with Jones and Ward coming back.

Agreed. McLaurin was on the injury report all week. I don't think he even practiced on Friday.

Perfect example of MAhomes career.

Defense is average or better he is 22-0 well 23-0 now.

Offense turned the ball over too many times but still won convincingly with good defense for a half.

BTW HB finally showed up for a game today, around the ball all day making tackles etc...

Nothing wrong with Sneed. Glad we have him.
