May have been DJ that said it or someone else can't remember, but once you lost Pacheco and Rice and Hollywood, this was probably just the way you're gonna have to play. [Reply]

Yeah Hopkins is older now JuJu is a declining player Hartman sucks Watson is a JAG and Worthty is still developing. Yeah the WR is juat OK not great not as bad as last years group.
You're a Brittish faggot who watches dyke ball and a bad take machine [Reply]

It sucks that the injuries happened to who they did. Losing Rice just sucks because it really seemed like he was gonna be kicking ass this year.
Matt Verderame(sp) yesterday said Mahomes is 34th out of 34 qualifying QBs when it comes to average depth of target. I don't know if that's 100% right, but at best he's still bottom 10 in the league.
This line hasn't been horrible enough for that to be the case. And despite the injuries, our skill positions players have never been bad this whole season apart from the 2 games where we didn't have Rice or DHop.
If he plays how he's supposed to play, the rest of the offense is solid enough to where this is easily a top 10 offense. [Reply]

For sure.
I went back and watched some 2022 and 2020 games and he's just flinging it everywhere.
I know we've won 2 SB's off it, but shit can we ever talk about trading Tyreek being the cause of some of this? [Reply]

I mean you said it in your own post, 2022 was different. First year w/o Tyreek. So it just doesn't really hold up.
I think it's more likely that Mahomes was just a pissed off SOB that year who was tired of hearing that they couldn't be the same offense without Tyreek, and so we were getting his best laser focus every single game. All offseason too for that matter.
These past couple years, all anyone on the team has talked or cared about is getting back to the Bowl. The offseasons have been celebrations. These guys just aren't moved by beating the Panthers in a regular season game. It's all about being healthy and ready to roll for the real season. [Reply]

This clueless bozo really thinks he knows ball :-) [Reply]
Maybe this guy can be Steven Nelson someday, but i don't see it. He looks physically outmatched out there and he plays the ball like a practice squad caliber player. You see these kinda guys cut in camp every year. [Reply]
Saw on Twitter that Jaylen Watson had a similar coverage grade as Nazeeh this early in his career as a starter.
I can see what Merritt sees in him to put him out there. He is a good blitzer and not afraid to come up and hit against the run. The kid is in position every time he’s just been a bit unfortunate.
This is just a tip of the cap. He had good coverage here:

You hope the ACL recovery and experience continues to lend itself to quick improvement.
Those deep balls Allen threw and Cooper caught were borderline miraculous connections. They might hit on those again, but it's unlikely.
It really did remind me of the Jets game last year where that kid was just dropping once in a lifetime dimes for a few drives and despite having fantastic coverage the receptions were made.
I remember thinking that sunday, that the coverage wasn't that bad but that he was just dropping passes into places only the WR could get.
I can't blame Johnson on these routes he actually had great coverage [Reply]

All very sticky in coverage. It does remind me a bit of early career Charvarius Ward
Yeah I thought he looked a bit better against the Panthers. He's stickier than Williams, but Williams is better at press. If we could combine them we'd have a pretty good CB. Problem with Johnson is teams and WRs know they can go over or through him. But yeah, feels like there's SOME degree of talent there. I guess he's also still learning the position after playing safety in college right? [Reply]
I don't trust him at all. 8/12, 106 yards and a TD vs Buffalo. That's simply not good enough and he got beat a lot again against the panthers but balls weren't caught. [Reply]
