reesebobby 5,661 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I love Andy Reid, but this is who should take the blame for that fumble. That should never have been called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was first and goal from the 3. The probability of a TD is almost 90 percent regardless of play call. Mecole Hardman has 37 playoff touches and 4 playoff fumbles. Why he'd be the dude on a freezing day is beyond me. I guess it all worked out, but the blame for me will lie in the unnecessarily risky play call.

This is why we need a 6'3-6'4 receiver that can go get jump balls in the end zone, so we have options to keep them from calling that stupid jet sweep inside the 5. I loathe that play in that situation. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Chief 1,092 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Probably can't rely on Jody Fortson to be healthy next year, but he was supposed to fill that role, along with Justyn Ross. oldtimer and West 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortson and Ross have proven nothing. The Chiefs need to sign or draft a red zone threat to take some of the pressure off Kelce and keep the defenses honest. Running up the middle is still the best odds. Bring in Allegretti as a sixth lineman and keep Mahomes under center. It may get stuffed, but that only costs one down. Better than taking a loos running wide or throwing in incompletion. Third down? I can see it. First and goal from the three? Run it in via the shortest route. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should bring in an Evans and draft one as well. I love the speed guys, but we don't need a bunch of 5'9 receivers running around. A jumpball threat, paired with a deep threat and a Kelce would be nasty, especially with our sudden willingness to run the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieHard 2,061 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 So strange that PFF lists Snead as the 10th best FA. Not even the best in the secondary. I think you bite the bullet on Higgins or go young at WR. West 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not talking about fade routes, just a big receiver that can go up and take that short slant in the end zone by high pointing the ball against a DB that's likely 3+ inches shorter. A bigger receiver opens up a lot of doors in terms of back shoulder throws and congested end zone throws. I realize no one is Randy Moss, but that's the style I'm thinking. On a deep shot a big receiver doesn't have to outrun everyone to be "open". jetlord and Lamardirts 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardman's job was to advance the ball. He already had one fumble and ball security should have been priority #1. Second and goal from the half yard line isn't all that bad. Give it to Pacheco. Give it to CEH if Pacheco is tired. The Chiefs had Humphry, Smith, and Thuney and the Bills had third string LBs. Failure goes to Andy's play call and to Hardman's ball security. All Kelce did was not make an outstanding block. dhitter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmes4six! 968 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Good on Kelce! Taking the heat away from hardman. as others have said, line up and fukin run it down there throats. It don’t matter if they know it’s coming. That’s what u do inside the 5. This is where I loved vermeil and Holmes. They did not care u knew it was coming.

Lamardirts 2,114 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I like Mike Evans over Tee for a couple reasons. Mike's contract will be shorter and fall in line with Rice's rookie deal. Mike has shown he can be the #1 alpha with good or bad qbs and I think he has one more elite year and probably a couple decent years left. Tee Higgins is a big wr and played well this year, but he has never been the #1 in that offense and making that jump from #2 to #1 isn't always easy. He thrives on contested balls and jump balls because of his size but Mahomes doesn't throw those unless forced too. Finally Higgins is gonna want a long term contract in the 20's which if we weren't going to give that to Tyreek Hill why would we give that to a far less talented wr in Higgins. Sign up Mike Evans, draft another wr in rounds 2-4, pair those with Rice, Watson, and then let Ross, Moore, Tony, and Remigio fight for those last two spots. Even the back end doesn't float your boat go get a bargain bin vet like Adam Thielen for a year. moons314 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetlord 10,207 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Anyone have a list of potential WR FAs? Several teams have severe cap issues and some good WRs should be out there. Would Gabe Davis be of interest?

A solid top 3-4 wrs paired with Gray, Kelce and draft another TE. I can handle Moore OR Toney being on the roster if it's at the 5th wr spot.
