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]

There's a way to catch that ball and a way to do....well what Hill did. Hill let his right hand take the brunt of the velocity there and almost tried to trap it against his right hand with his left. You're gonna be taught on that ball to extend both arms even and create the 'diamond' so the hands wrap around it.
When you do that, at worst you typically drop it down. But since he let that right hand absorb most of the impact, the ball popped up (and hell, the left hand might have even aided it in that regard).
Just seemed like an odd technique from Hill.
In real time it looks like the velocity of the pass surprised him. Seems like the right hand gets up really late. [Reply]

This is where I'm at.....inside the locker room, there is no such thing as "style points...." a win is a win is a win, and a loss is a loss is a loss....
But I'd also wager that Pat, Reek, Travis would all, to a man, say they haven't come close to playing their best football, nor are they happy with where they are at currently.
Sloppy and tons of mistakes, and still in position to fight for the #1 seed....If they can get their shit together, they will be fine, especially if the D continues to play well.... [Reply]
What a bunch of ridiculousness that is going on in this thread!
The first point is never going full como.
The second point the biggest issue is the coaching.
The third point is the drops.
The fourth point is the bad passes.
The fifth point is game planning.
The 3rd, 4th, and 5th points can be traced back to the second point easily.
Coaches should be able to figure out the right course of action to correct all of these drops, whether that is Mahomes or bad habits. Coaches should be able to correct Mahomes' bad passes, part of that might be fixed if the drops were fixed. Coaches should be able to game plan much better, even if that is just a continuation of the first script that works so well before it all goes to crap. [Reply]

For whatever reason Pat has been off target all year. He's just not as accurate as he was before... [Reply]
In the offseason Patrick may have to eat his pride and refine his footwork because his toe injury now seems to be fucking with him with his cavalier playing style [Reply]

Just looking at stats it doesn't look as good as in the past. One interesting thing - he's going to end up rushing for more yards than ever this year, and more yards per carry. Weird because it feels like he's done less of that this year. [Reply]
I’m sure this has been mentioned before, but PM2’s body language looks off on the sidelines. Like he’s less able to move on from mistakes than in years past.

Pressure can be a bitch.
You can be a bitch. Let's see your body language when your co-worker doesn't pull their weight. [Reply]

Yeah he's not as fiery, doesn't look cool and confident like in the past. Isn't stalking the sideline firing people up. Isn't sitting with Andy and going over the offense.
Everything is just off with him this year. [Reply]

You have to know that making any kind of assessment based on what someone happens to be doing during the brief moments when some TV director decides to put them on camera is just not something a serious person does, right? [Reply]
