Slider 2 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Also, I think we can all agree that Charles was not being used optimally before his injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhataLerror 370 Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 Before today, the Chiefs have scored 38 points or more on offense only four times during the Andy Reid/Alex Smith era, with all of them coming during a seven-game stretch: November 24, 2013: 38 points vs. Chargers (with Charles) December 8, 2013: 38 points @ Washington (with Charles) December 15, 2013: 49 points @ Oakland (because of Charles) January 4, 2014: 44 points @ Indianapolis (without Charles) Can the Chiefs manage another seven-game stretch with big offensive outputs? After hanging 45 on a bad Lions team, maybe this team will play with some confidence going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHard 2,061 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 It is better line play. Charles is a Greek God, but you still have to block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DefensiveMan 758 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 They're running the ball more. Consecutive running plays mixed in with some bubble screens. Detroit's front 7 isn't terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Okiechief1 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Play calling is much more balanced the last 2 games. Close to 50/50. When JC is in the game that doesn't happen often. Andy has had habit of doing this, going 2 or 3 games being more balanced then goes back to being pass happy. Gonna sound odd but with JC out I think you see more of the run game.

FANATIC 852 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Not a Relevant Issue. Different teams, situations, turnovers etc. Plus Andy is better when games dont matter. NO pressure Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are so many things that are talked negatively about the Chiefs when the situations are different, the teams are different, etc. Heck, even different regimes and players, people talk as if it has the same predictable result - what's wrong with doing the opposite. Sometimes it'll turn out the same, sometimes it won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kccrow 529 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 It's not just rushing well, its also converting on 3rd down with 61% today and 56% last week. The Chiefs are sustaining more drives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
