reesebobby 5,661 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Seems like this team is not the same since the Britt Reid incident. Just not the same level of energy and innovation. Coincidence? DefensiveMan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's affecting Andy's ability to focus on the job then it's absolutely not irrelevant even though the loss of Britt's coaching is definitely irrelevant. I think something similar happened to him at the end of his Philly run and he needed a year or two to recharge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As they say..The Chickens are finally coming home to roost. On offense, Reid hasn't made any adjustments to his offensive game plans and the rest of the league has figured him out. Hell, remember in 2019 it took Herculean efforts for us to get to the SB and then win it. They won the SB in spite of Andy's shitty game plans. It seems like the last time I saw some good offensive game plans was the AS11 years, where he had to game plan around Smith's limitations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azchief21 5,278 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I agree with reese regarding Andy's head in this situation. It's his son. Where is EB to step up? As far as the players being affected, not so much. They just suck and play like crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggjliv4 1,292 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Very well could be affecting Reid unless he's the type that buries himself in work to keep his mind occupied from this type of event much like many do when mourning. Also wonder how clear Mahomes head is this year. Turned into multimillionaire, g/f happens to get pregnant right after signing, then married then add in his drama boy brother living off his coattails. Not saying it was or wasn't planned, but regardless that is a lot to adjust to mentally in a very short period of time. Often forget how real life effects all of us and these guys are more than just football players, they're human beings. artsy and mex 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the Warparty 69 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Not sure if Britt was the start, but as far as game planning, I couldn’t believe that after the Bucs dominated the SB, Reid (or Mahomes) said in a presser that the short passing game ‘just wasn’t in the game plan’ How the hell do you go into a S B with the o line decimated and NOT adjust the game plan. Shakey o line should have been aided by coaches planning more quick passing to negate some of the heavy rush that was sure to be there! To me that was Reid crapping the bed!

He's obviously STILL crapping the bed, because he hasn't adjusted. We've seen it one game this year: The Philly game. If you guys recall, the running game was working and dink and dunk was efficient. Pat didn't get hit very much and we dominated TOP. Haven't seen that game plan since...Maybe Andy wanted to REALLY beat Philly?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge reason as to why I think Bienemy is not wanted elsewhere. When the HC goes through something like that it should have been him to step up and create a game plan as well as a Plan B if it failed. qnet and oldtimer 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sith13 1,746 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 I think it's the #1 culprit. Reid hasn't been a decent coach ever since the incident and nobody around him was able to pick up the slack. I was hoping Reid would see football as a distraction but he clearly can't, I have no idea about his thoughts on the future but he may not have much of a career left in the NFL.

I think the man is resilient enough to bounce back from this incident. oldtimer and mex 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think so too, but it still seems like the team lost its mojo about that time. There were some other things with similar timing. Eric Fisher injury and the pretty humiliating Super Bowl loss for example. And the beating that Mahomes took in that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Workaholics use work for security , escape , problem avoidance and to be in control of their environment. I doubt his son has anything to do with KC struggles. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
