KCSLC2008 606 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Happy we won, but this is a win I won't be watching again. Maybe a highlight video of the first quarter. Glad we didn't lose it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetlord 10,209 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 DEN gave the Chiefs the game, but the Chiefs tried to give it back. One stupid play call almost turned the game around, Two easy drops by Harris, one a TD, cost the Chiefs points. I don't blame Reid too much for cutting down the offense. The Donks couldn't pass the ball and no reason to give them another cheap turnover. KC lost a game they had in the bag last week so let's be happy about an ugly win and go on from here.

12go4kcinva 22 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Seriously..you have us beating Dallas that confidently? I know Elliott will be out..but our defense is so weak...any RB they throw in could do damage. Piss poor tackling is really starting to irritate me.

Calichief 3,016 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Defense looked to be on track tonight. Offense was 2-12 on third down. Defense was on the field a lot. Dallas will try the deep pass a lot. But they'll be ready. Dallas will have no running game against us. Mcfumble sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClarksvilleChief 193 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 7-2 going into the bye. We should have LDT back. Time for Hunt to have a break out game The won't beat Dallas on Sunday. The cowboys will run it down our throats. I'm just keeping it real. but 6-3 will be ok also going into the bye week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you. It was ugly. But that's important to win those type of games. We had one on one matchups we could have exploited but I believe Andy thought he could just wait the game out with the lead because Denvers offense wasn't going to beat us.

Dallas is a good team with or without Elliott that plays a zone defense which is a good match against our strengths. But Andy Reid knows how to beat that division like he now dominates ours. I think we will win even in a short week. But it's hardly a given. Expect a ton of Chiefs fans to make that trip. Great time for a bye week after that as well.

We had one on one matchups we could have exploited but I believe Andy thought he could just wait the game out with the lead because Denvers offense wasn't going to beat us. I do not envy the job of a coach (besides the paycheck). He can't explain that to anyone because that would just be bulletin board material for the Broncos the next time they play us. If they can't beat us there just get even more dirty. (Plus, media crazies. Second, you can't really save much but you can't show everything either. So I do wish we executed better and we should, but there was no reason to open it all up when Denver wasn't going to do anything. But let's say that they convert the two point conversion and recover the onside kick? We could be in overtime because of stupid conservatism. But on the other hand if we try to be aggressive and don't score at the end with the field goal, they wouldn't have needed the two point conversion on and they recover the onside kick?

12go4kcinva 22 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Cali..i agree our defense looked great..but consider the offense they played against...3 picks..2 fumbles..missed touchdowns and catches...hell the picks were gravy picks..not gonna see that against a high caliber team.

12go4kcinva 22 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Furthermore, unfortunately pitt and Oakland exposed all of our defensive weaknesses...and Denver could have capitalized and won the game but their offense beat themselves over and over. Not to mention Andy trying to get cutesy with play calling when it should have been run it down their throat time. The play calling and decisions are very suspect. 6-2 feels good...wins over Philly and N.E. feels good...but the kc we saw last night is NOT the team that beat those teams..the dynamic had changed somehow...

We used the game plan circa 2013 to get that win. And that can leave you with little margin for error. But there's no team in football which commits less errors than us. And I think Andy was probably kicking himself and a little gun shy after Tyreek INT. Denver really committed to stoping Hunt which left Kelce especially in one on one situations. I thought we could exploited that even more. We definitely needed that last FG to seal game.This team just continues to do what it has to consistently win games against all styles and calibers of opponents.

DieHard 2,061 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Bottom line is that we took on the #2 team in our division and beat them. After the first quarter we had a 2 possessions lead and I think we Harold a 2 possession lead the rest of the game. Could be wrong. That is taking care of business. We will kick Dallas’s ass next week with or without Zeek. We did a lot of runners Ng clock. We could have ran it up if we wanted to, but why chance a pick 6 when you can just bang field goals and win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCSLC2008 606 Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 The problem with the Hill pass play was not just calling the play. Apparently, he wasn't coached to throw it away and I don't know why he threw it with his left hand. And I don't know if he really considered the option of just running to get however many yards he could. He didn't have to throw it. The other option is that he thought he could get it there with his left hand and that's even worse. I wonder if the play with motivated by Poe's touchdown throw last year. If so, get that out of there. Cute is one thing, but stupid or trying to make some stupid point is another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either the word was out that the Chiefs had installed the play or there was some tell that tipped Gruden and possibly the Donks off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCSLC2008 606 Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 He's left handed. I didn't get that Reid's answer in the press conference was sarcastic. Reid said he was right-handed but that was tired sarcasm. I only saw it in text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artsy 1,137 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Our defense is also not SB worthy. I really would like Sutton/Reid to give someone else a shoot at ILB. DJ is downright terrible right now. It's like playing 10 vs. 11. He is always out of position, and not fast enough to recover anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tire of seeing him dive at opponents legs just as much as the next guy, and he has clearly lost a few steps, but I still believe his leadership n experience are something we will miss when he hangs them up.. I'm not happy with how the middle of or d is playing, and I for one love our middle backer depth, however aside from a missed diving attempt here n there or him being responsible for a wr on a drag route he is still easily our best option. Luckily for us I believe he will be our lb coach once he retires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moons314 2,463 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Denver gave that game away.... Defense is overrated.... ASmith is starting show he cannot compete....his throws got worse and worse as the game wore on....he will kill the playoff chances When everything was working , Smith was letting it fly. The past few weeks when things have been more difficult, he’s turned back into throw it away Alex. I absolutely understand that there are times where throwing it away is the best thing to do, but the past three games I see him reverting back to being ultra conservative and last night was a prime example. Smith (and Reid to an even larger extent ) played the final two and a half quarters as not to lose, and that’s maddening to me. Our offensive game plan and execution after the stupid goal line halfback pass was worse than a prevent defense. I’m happy to get the win and a commanding lead in the division, but a team with a competent offense beats us last night. This team is starting to feel more and more like the team that went 9-0,13-3 and didn’t win a playoff game, though this team has a slightly better defense and a not as good offense. Even at 6-2, I don’t feel like this team is playing very good football in the second quarter of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
