Gadget player. Would be a good slot guy with another threat on the outside across from Tyreek. So maybe Gordon can help open things up. Honestly I'm down on this whole gimmicky offense with the constant motion and jet sweeps, etc. I think the league has caught up to us in a sense. Not that we can't still score points. But for Pat to become truly comfort staying in the pocket (which he isnt now), we need to get back to a real offense with him under center and using play action rather than this RPO nonsense. It will help our running game in a big way too. I'm not advocating for Martyball. And I'm not saying not to have Pat take snaps from the shotgun. And Reid will always be a master play designer. But it's time to be able to line up and just dominate the LOS. oldtimer, AFCWEST, ChiefThunder and 2 others 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer 8,686 Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 I'll agree wit the last sentence that when necessary we should be able to be 3 yrds and a cloud of dust. All the motion is a way to see who's covering who. Vince Lombardi football dont cut it anymore. RPO's work as do Jet sweeps with Tyreek just maybe not use them as much. . Just a hunch here but I wonder if much of this stuff is not an effort by Andy to make the game fun for MVPat? I'm not saying I agree with many of those gadget plays but Jet Sweeps, RPO's and motion are not Gadgets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying I agree with many of those gadget plays but Jet Sweeps, RPO's and motion are not Gadgets I think this last game it was a way to get the ball into Tyreeks hands in anyway shape or form cause the Chargers effectively cut him out of the passing game. Without looking at the numbers it seems like if he is getting regular looks in the passing game then its maybe just once or twice a game they use him in the jet sweep. KCs last scoring drive they ran more than passed and while i don't think they go full martyball i do think as the year goes on and as the line gets better from just playing together more we will see more drives like that.

Lamardirts 2,114 Posted September 29, 2021 Author Share Posted September 29, 2021 Where are our short slants and outs to get Hill the ball? Seems like when teams try to take him away we just concede and let him be the deep decoy to stay the defense away from other areas of the field. I don’t have an issue with that per se but not for a whole game. Gotta get the ball in our best players hands. artsy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just need everyone on same page and make some smarter decisions with the ball. BTW Andy is figuring out how to adjust to all the 2 high shells we're seeing. He's been going 5 wide and stretching them horizontally which has started to work. We really just need to quit turning the ball over and the offense will be fine. oldtimer, qnet and Joe_Chief 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xen 1,010,220 Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Ok so here's JG's patriot snaps in 2018 & 2019. Looks like a possession receiver at this point. Don't know if he still has it and keep in mind this is just the catches and doesn't show how he looked otherwise. But still, this is promising if he keeps it together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't defenses know we don't really want Mahomes out there keeping the ball and running? That we aren't gonna turn the franchise into a moving target more than a few times per game?

We have a HOF coach that is respect as one of the most innovative and successful play callers in the history of the nfl. We are at our usual 400+ yards per game and 30+ points.

I think REID is over rated as some great guru and innovative genius. I think Reid is a great leader of men and that is his greatest strength. KC plays around too much on offense. Passing to tackles on the goal line. Thats EGO not the best judgement. Palangi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He plays to the strength of his QBs. We saw this with Smith having his best year ever and what he did for other QBs he had. If anything he may over think plays and calls made.

And that is with 3 rookies starting on the oline. I am not saying he is not overrated. I am saying he is the best in the league. I don't know how people rate him. And I personally don't feel he has a big ego. Neither do the players. Or the other coaches. Or any experts worth their salt. He had Poe throw a touchdown because nobody was expecting it. He threw to a OT for the same reason. People see the unexpected from Andy and it helps our offense. Those jet sweeps people are complaining about create big plays. What do we average on jet sweeps? I don't know, but would like to see it. Andy's offense is not the problem. Enjoy this ride because he will be gone one day and we will not be as good on offense as we were.

Its todays NFl the difference between 5th and 10th is not much. I dont care about #1 or #5. That fantasy football BS. Yards this yards that is just talking head topics. Smith was a good QB also. I think Reid never won a playoff with Smith. Smith had a year he did not throw a TD to a receiver. Mahomes makes the difference. Palangi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point I am making is the Andy is a hell of a coach and has been proving it for many years. You can dismiss all the numbers all day long, but you only have speculation that Andy would not be good without Mahomes or Mahomes would be better with another coach.

I did not say Andy is not good. I think he is over rated and not a genius. I think Mahomes would have better numbers with the Rams, Niners and Tampa Bay. Those teams actually run the ball.

I suspect that's what they have in mind. He sure has good hands. Hopefully he's taken care of himself. edit: He naturally gifted, and it doesn't even look like he's trying that hard.

Holmes4six! 968 Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 The real question with this signing is will it make a defense think twice about how they utilize personal to shade Hill and Kelce? will it be different than what they do now with either Pringle hardman kemp? secondly , can he beat man coverage ? will it force defenses to come out of a deep two shell. obviously Veach thinks so. im somewhat looking forward to seeing what happens.
