A big run does not take 6 minutes off the clock. Just force them into a few third and longs and get them off the field. Mahomes & Co will take care of the rest. Yeah. Just make him get his 125 yards by working hard, and play sound balanced defense. Swarm to the ball. Don't stack the box except in the red zone. Dont let them use Henry to set up a passing game. Don't let them get any long passes. Gap discipline. Sound tackling. Make them frustrated at having to spend so much time trying to keep up with Mahomes by using a running game. This is a game we will probably win using our secret weapon....Butker. They have to be made aware that they've merely brought a big knife to a gun fight. Maybe its a machete, but its still a knife. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my perspective at the game all I could say at the time was what? Forward progress? That can't be the right call. It was so unfathomable that I really thought people heard it wrong and were confused. When I found at later that indeed was the call. I was floored. That's beyond awful.

I still think we would have won that day with Mahomes at QB. But I'm very glad they let Alex play it out. FANATIC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember if we had 14 or 21 points when we lost Kelce, but I just remember it being the Jenga piece where the offense fell apart. It was a lot like the 2013 Colts collapse, where we kept losing guys. We lost Jamaal Charles and managed to do okay. But then we started losing defensive guys, and once we lost I think it was Flowers we failed to stop them from there on out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big question is whether Lucy holds the football for Charlie Brown this time. We'll find out Sunday. The misaligned stars. The fickle finger of fate. There is only one way to stop this shit. Score more points than the Titans. Shouldn't be that hard, really. It ain't that complicated. mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when I say "take out," I mean take him out. By any means necessary. Helmet to helmet, cutting him at the knees, you name it. They want him watching from the locker room. No doubt. Very good point. It was mentioned on GMF that chiefs need to lay the hammer down on Henry on the first play. Like Atwater did to okoye. Its that simple. Someone needs to put his ass on the ground with a massive hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Brendan Daly and Spags will have a plan to plug those A gaps and be stout on the backside watching his cutbacks. Why is nobody talking about the Denver game when Fangio's boys held him to 28 yards? Where was he in the Divisonal round in 2018 against NE? Nothing, only 20 yards and why bc NE got out to a 35-7 lead.Nobody talks about his weakness. He is a pure North/South runner If you plug the middle he cannot beat you outside. He doesn't have the footwork or lateral quickness abilities - make him check those feet in the backfield and swarm tackle. Fmbl2187 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefThunder 153 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Game plan should be similar to how they defended Lamar.....made him run laterally to the outside. Like you said, plug up the gut and force him outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiefsfan1963 1,101 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 If they play like they did last time minus the mistakes they win so don't give the game away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fmbl2187 2,279 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Truth is that he IS going to take them down the field and score. They are going to get 20-35 points. We win by anticipating their RPO's and getting a couple of INT's and by Mahomes and the receivers having a good day, and by beating them on ST's. I think we can get more than 30 points on them. 35 to 40, and we win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One word that can be used to describe the Titans is opportunistic. They don't have the multifaceted, "explosive" offense the Chiefs have. Obviously they rely on the run game...but one key is not making mistakes and taking advantage of the mistakes the other team makes. Just look at the last 2 playoff games they played. It's part of their formula. If Chiefs don't turn the ball over or commit a lot of penalties I cannot see any way the Titans can win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetlord 10,209 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Is everyone forgetting that on paper, the Ravens handled the Titans pretty well? Titans had short fields, Ravens had long ways to go to score. Titans made 300 yards, Ravens made 500. It wasn't Henry that beat them single handed, it was mistakes, interceptions, missed fourth down opportunities, etc. If the same teams played five more times, the Ravens would win four. KC is the better team. They lose if they focus so much on Henry that Tannehill play actions them to death. Obvious passing downs, Chiefs should win. Titans man defense, Chiefs should win. Zone defense, Chiefs can adjust and find holes. Let Henry get his yards and stop everything else and the Chiefs win. They lose only if they play like the first quarter of the Texans game. mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
