Will Andy call plays to maximize this or continue to call long developing route patterns like he did last year? Agree he needs to do that, but how do you get a zebra to change its stripes? This is Reid's issue as well as PM's. I just don't see it happening a whole lot. I find it ironic that after all we have been through, we are yearning for more Alex Smith game manager style. I think they will try but not be able to sustain it very long. One big frown or grumble from Hill or Kelce, and that dog will be dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Mahomes admits he left the pocket to soon to often. My point is to practice it more so when this situation occurs again is not suddenly foreign. I would not change the entire offense. I think Mahomes is weak , or maybe not disciplined, in this part of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fmbl2187 2,279 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 We will be better in the red zone with a better short game, but Reid won't forget how we got our first world championship in a half century. For him, the bomb will remain "the bomb." AFCWEST 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gochiefsgo 380 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Um. I’ve been hearing this whole, “no one has ever won all preseason and regular season games ever that’s our goal” thing floating about a lot this offseason. Is it a crazed boast? An indication of absurd Hubris? I hear this, and I say, if any other pissed off running for his life in Super Bowl history quarterback is going to make this his mission then it’s Mahomes. Only Mahomes would aspire to that and possibly pull it off. Chiefs will beat the 49ers. Yep oh yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre-season is to see who is going to make your roster and who is going to start or back up, and to get a real game feeling. If there is a coach playing to win in the pre-season, he is the coach of a bottom dwelling football team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xen 1,010,220 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Yeah I honestly could care less if we win a preseason game. Get the evaluations they need done, work on technique in a live game, and get out healthy should be the only goals.

Actually, now that I think about it, he must have been saying undefeated in regular season and playoffs all the way through and win the SB and he’s not talking about the preseason as well. Best case scenario in the preseason is that no one gets hurt. Rookies get significant playing time. etc.. AFCWEST and oldtimer 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must be really hard to have the pieces in place to be able to do that. Having a great QB like Brady or Mahomes makes it possible. At this stage of Mahomes' career, he seems to be just too driven to the spectacular play to discipline himself that much. I hope I'm wrong. With Reid, we will remain a pass first offense. 60-40 will be the approximate numbers by the end of the season. AFCWEST 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just glad football is on tonight! Me, too. If you think about it, Mahomes is a guy who would say that before every season. He knows that is the mindset needed to be a leader of his players. Reid, though, is in a different kind of leadership position. He needs the whole psychology of the team to remain balanced and determined throughout a long season, win or lose, health or injuries.

mex 65,581 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 18 hours ago, reesebobby said: Serious question: Mahomes has been a starter for 3 years. In those 3 years, he is 1 OT loss from 3 Super Bowls. He averages over 12 wins a year, 4600 yards, 38 TDs, and 7 TDs a year. We have probably the best offense in the league and one of the best in the history of the league. We have led the league twice in yards, once in scoring, and have never been worse than 6th in either scoring or yards. Why in the actual fuck do we want him to start dinking and dunking? So, it’s really not a serious question. 😆 oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
