oldtimer 8,686 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Just before Super Bowl LV, the Chiefs have placed left tackle Eric Fisher and linebacker Willie Gay on injured reserve, elevated wide receiver Marcus Kemp and quarterback Matt Moore from the practice squad to the active roster, activated tight end Deon Yelder from injured reserve and signed linebacker Chris Lammons from the practice squad to the active roster.

So the run defense hurt but we had plenty of chances to survive it. Or you can go with an inaccurate and uninformed insult. Your call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamixoye 604 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 One more summary: my point is not that it's totally irrelevant to have a bad run defense. It hurts to be bad in any phase of the game. My point is that of all the flaws this team has or could have, it's the most survivable one. That is contrary to historical conventional wisdom, but fortunately conventional wisdom is changing. And this team's specific history from 2018-2020 also supports the idea that we only lose when we shoot ourselves in the foot on offense and/or get burned by the pass just as much as the run. Therefore, per the topic title, it's not a key to the game. The top two keys are passing well and stopping their passing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xen 1,010,220 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 As the grand exhalted, fair and impartial judge of all things football related, I have to agree with Adam here. They are not gonna beat us running the foosball. If we lose it will be because (most likely culprits in order): We self destruct too much on offense, too many drops and turnovers The line doesn't hold up to 4 man pressure We can't pressure Brady combined with one of the previous 2 things Brady’s contract with Satan calls for 7 superbowl wins instead of the 6 we thought it contained Hamburgers don't show up on time for the pregame meal Brady sneaks in and switches out our cleats and we come out wearing high heels Mahomes gets shot by one of those pirate cannons Meteor hits our sideline Run defense Burpo The Mad Clown and Adamixoye 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should try and score every time we have the ball, not just some of the time. 3. When the other team has the ball, we should try and keep them from scoring. 4. When the other team has the ball we should take it away from them 5. When the other team has the ball, the defense should score. 6. When we kick the ball we should take it away from the other team. 7. We should return kicks for scores. Sorry xen didnt look like you where done.

Sure I suppose if everything else on my list happens, including Mahomes getting murdered in the face by pirate cannons, they could then run for the win.

Holmes4six! 968 Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 Stop the run or stop the pass? some debate on this. brady needs the run game. Not mahomes. Run game for Brady opens areas between hash marks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The endless, multi hour pregame is the worst. I won’t turn on the tv until kickoff. Nothing before that is of the slightest interest to me. mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
