Holmes4six! 968 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 So thorn hill plays limited snaps and Snead I didn’t see. WTF? I guess ried is saving some bodies for final stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamixoye 604 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 20 or fewer points in 7/10 games. 31+ in the other three: Raiders (40 and 31) and the Panthers (31). Panthers threw the kitchen sink at us with all the 4th down attempts and crazy catches - hard to say they didn't get lucky. Raiders appear to be a bad matchup, I hope we can figure them out.

NO is weird because it's looking like we'll get the Taysom Hill version, and I don't know if we really know what to expect from them at this point. TB scares me the most, they have both the highest ceiling and a pretty shocking floor. The Chiefs have been just good enough in most games. No doubt any team, except Denver, could beat KC down the stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, consider that nearly a third of the points the Chiefs have given up are in the two Raider games. Maybe the matchups are just bad against Lv. I'm not saying the defense doesn't need major fixing, but they're not as hopeless and the Raiders made them look. That being said, can anyone name one defensive player that was as asset to the game tonight? pennel on the running game... in fact, I thought we did well defending the run tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would have thought Mahomes would throw 345 yards, the Chiefs would run for more yards, and still, the Raiders probably should have won the game. After all the years of losing winnable games, it sure is nice to be on the other end. the Warparty and oldtimer 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sad thing is everyone Watts is given a chance he shows ability and Tedric Thompson has more range than Sorenson too. Yet we continue to play Sorenson. Sure he makes a splash play here and there. But in between he is a HUGE liability. artsy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palangi 788 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I would like to know the thought process on playing Niemann too? He is weak and slow. Sure DOD isn't very big. But when he has had chances he has flashed too. He brings elite LB speed to the position. I'm not saying he has to be a starter, but on sub packages where they are throwing out him in over Niemann keep Sorenson out of the box too and let DOD be the coverage guy in there. In nickel situations instead of Niemann and Sorenson being the LBs let Wilson/Gay and DOD be the LBs. I don't get out insistence on playing lower level guys... Sorenson, Niemann, Reiter, etc... artsy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet it was Wylie and Reiter starting from the get go while Allegretti only got out there because of injury To think coaches don't have biases is being naive.

Yes thats true but certainly nobody on this board is more qualified to make those decisions than the coaches. Discussion? Sure. Reality? Not so much.
