We have all seen him scramble and pick up yardage when needed, he gave up the ghost. I believe there is still some uncertainty there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bell was right there as were all the defenders that knew it was coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's important enough you lay it all out, if you believe that there are other options you take the safe route. It looks like he elected to play it safe and I'm fine with it.

Exactly, commit to ending the game right there. If I am not mistaken coaches give QBs like Mahomes the freedom to addlib. If Mahomes did or didn't audible we will never know. People will continue making assumptions as long as it makes themselves feel better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefensiveMan 758 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Mahomes should step in and say....hey, Coach Reid...Let's run it twice instead. I'm not "Cool" with a TE screen to Blake Bell. Calichief 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Mahomes felt it was a bad play I'm sure he would have audible to something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamardirts 2,114 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 My biggest issue with the play was who it was it designed for. We tried forcing him the ball earlier in the year to him and he just isn’t a good player nor should he be put in that situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reid was trying to catch them by surprise by throwing it to someone we never throw it to I assume. Should've just ran the ball 2 times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefsfan1963 1,101 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Football revolves around two things, blocking and tackling. Both thing's the Chiefs have been poor at in their losses. Without blocking your RBs are going nowhere and you QB is not going to have time to do anything. Without tackling a team will run and pass on you all day.

artsy 1,137 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 It's weird, every single year we have one or two of these games, where everyone is pissed at Reid for some stupid ass playcall.

sith13 1,746 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 It isn't really a one-play thing this is a whole-game problem. We haven't set up any runs blocking in the traditional sense so we can't really expect to punch it in when needed. We need Sherman out there more often and early in the game so we actually have a go-to run game when it really matters. When your entire running game consists of handing off to the RB from shotgun the defense knows you cannot convert 3rd&2 on the ground and can easily focus on the pass.

Reason we don't lead as an individual is because as a team we rotate everyone in. Still a huge problem for us so far. On the flip side we have just one interception all year, which was a bs call too on that one. https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/fumbles-per-game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ball protection is the #1 job of a runner yet we seem to be very loose with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mloe68 1,521 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I would’ve run the ball but how can anyone possibly fault a strategy that puts the Potential game clinching play in the hands of our best player? Furthermore we had a similar scenario vs LA last year, ran it and lost. And we passed needing a first down to clinch vs Balt this year and won Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
