We know obviously it’s Andy. I just don’t understand for the life of me why we do this crap. The Eagles lean into their strength and call that bull qb sneak push, Brady would sneak it or throw it, yet we act like we got the ghost of Damon Huard and a piss poor Oline out there. Seriously, why do teams normally call plays like that, because they are trying to overcompensate for a weakness. We have the best player in the world at QB and the best TE and a top 3 interior Oline, just run a regular play. I still think Andy is mid season evaluating this team on O for the stretch. We play down a lot to competition but we generally are always ready for good teams. Andy is a great coach so we probably need to trust him and this process however ugly it is. oldtimer and dhitter 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We play down a lot to competition but we generally are always ready for good teams. Andy is a great coach so we probably need to trust him and this process however ugly it is. I watched an interview with Michael Johnson, the sprinter dude. For you young people, he had a really weird running style, but was untouchable in the 400 and 200. He looked really strange though. A reporter asked him why he didn't run like everyone else. He said something like "If I ran like everyone else, then I'd run like everyone else". I think you get a little of that with Andy. Chris Jones and Kelce have the opportunity to free lance. Mahomes gets to improvise a lot. The guys like to play for him and he seems to take the grind out of these long seasons. We hardly ever lose "trap games". It can be frustrating, but seems to be our thing. And our thing has resulted in one of the best runs in NFL history. But I wouldn't mind just taking the easy yard once in a while also. oldtimer and Lamardirts 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arrowhead 1,070 Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 On the Toney misfortune, Herbstreit said if he had handed it off, first down was easy. Maybe Toney feels he has to score a TD each touch. Spags said Jones can freelance, he doesn't know where he's gonna line up at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to see the glass half full, so for now assume that Andy is just fooling around and will do more conventional plays when they get to LAC, BUFF, MIA, CINN, and PHL. The silly Toney plays and fake kick probably won't happen in those tighter games. Let's face it. The Chiefs weren't really in danger of losing. Yeah, Denver closed to within eight points, but never did I feel that the Chiefs were in danger. They could move the ball at will and Denver only scored via a ticky tack roughing the passer call and a marginal TD pass. When the games get more serious, Andy will get more serious. He's playing games with the league right now. qnet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's certainly bringing on Rice faster than expected. Moore and Toney got a few targets. Watson dropped his only chance and paid for it with an injury. The real question is what's happened to MVS. He doesn't seem to have any part in the offense and is just playing out his contract. Ross may see some action replacing Watson and I hope he takes advantage of it. BTW: Hopkins, who so many hoped would come in and light up the WR room has a total of 356 yards with 0 TDs so far. Might do better with Mahomes, but hardly the next Randy Moss. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too hope Ross can make something of this. MVS is done after this year. We can use that moneybfor a better upgrade if need be in FA or use towards resigning our own. He has a 14 mil cap hit with 2 mil dead space next year. His ass is gone. 7 receptions and 116 yards in 6 games? What a waste. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if Mahomes putting him back into positions tipped of the D. Had to be frustrating for Mahomes especially with a guy who was in the building a good portion of last year and all offseason (even if part of it was injured). Oh well, gotta imagine that will get cleaned up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
