Yeah....I dunno.
We've still had guys open all over. He's just not played as well. He usually picks it up, I'm not worried. [Reply]

It's not about guys being open. It's about taking pressure off of the offensive line. Denver basically pass rushed on every down because they didn't have to worry about Kareem "breaking one". [Reply]

The horror, better spam threads about that shitshow for the next 6 weeks.
Spags nuked that kid from the middle of the 2nd until the last drive. Kid had 1 good throw and it was a play that the Chiefs defense messed up giving him a free shot.
Bo Nix is Alex Smith at best. QB3 in this division at best [Reply]

I love PGM, but he's been pretty insufferable this season. [Reply]

It was really just that one 3rd down on the final drive, IIRC, where they didn't pressure him so he could run backwards 20 yards.
Besides that, exactly... Nix spent the game taking what the defense gave him and really nothing more. :-) [Reply]

We lead the league with 26 drives over ten plays ,and lead the league in time of possession not sure I would call it a shitshow , we also have the least amount of 3 and outs.
Kelce said on his podcast it was a catchable ball his feet got tied up and couldn’t get up for it. [Reply]
Originally Posted by : KANSAS CITY OFFENSE: It seemed as though the Chiefs figured out their offensive woes in their Monday night victory against the Buccaneers. Patrick Mahomes had his best game of the season in a 30-point performance. Instead, it was the Chiefs taking advantage of an injury-ravaged defense that wasn’t good in the first place.
The Chiefs laid an egg against the Broncos, but were bailed out by the blocked field goal. Granted, it was a tough matchup, but so is this one. The Bills have the league’s fourth-ranked EPA defense. That’s not even factoring in Matt Milano’s potential return, as Milano has been cleared to practice. He won’t play in this game, barring a miracle, but the Bills still match up very well against Kansas City. They’re only weak to running backs and slot receivers. Kareem Hunt has been solid in fantasy football, but he’s not good in real life. Xavier Worthy, meanwhile, has been a huge disappointment.
Kansas City will obviously want to attack with Travis Kelce and DeAndre Hopkins. The Bills are strong against outside receivers, though they’ve been weaker to tight ends lately. Travis Kelce has been on a tear since Rashee Rice was lost for the season, so he could continue to play at a very high level.
BUFFALO OFFENSE: The Bills also have a matchup edge with their tight end. The Chiefs are one of the worst teams in the NFL at defending tight ends. Dalton Kincaid should be able to take great advantage of this matchup. Kincaid has been a disappointment as a fantasy player this year, but every tight end has crushed the Chiefs, even Isaiah Likely back in Week 1.
The only other area in which the Chiefs are weak is to No. 2 receivers. They tend to double team top threats, so Amari Cooper isn’t expected to do much even if he’s able to return from injury. Keon Coleman would project well, but he’s also hurt. There’s also Khalil Shakir, but the Chiefs have allowed just one slot receiver (Ladd McConkey in Week 4) to beat expectations against them.
The Chiefs are stellar elsewhere. They lock down top receiving threats and the running game. James Cook won’t be able to do much, so Josh Allen may have to scramble more than he would like. Allen hasn’t run much this year compared to prior seasons, but perhaps he’s been saving his legs for big games like this one.
RECAP: I wish I had a strong opinion on this game because it’s the biggest matchup of the regular season. The defending Super Bowl champions will be battling their biggest non-divisional rival in a matchup that could decide the No. 1 seed in the AFC. Who wouldn’t want to bet on that?
The problem is that I just don’t know where to go with it. Common sense says that the Chiefs are the right play. They’re undefeated, and yet they’re 2.5-point underdogs. If all they do is win, wouldn’t it make sense to back them as underdogs?
The public certainly believes the Chiefs are easy money, but there’s a case to be made for Buffalo as well. The Bills built their roster to beat the Chiefs, which they’ve done often in the regular season. Also, Kansas City can’t possibly win every game, so the team is bound to lose eventually. If it’s going to happen, why wouldn’t it against such a great team like the Bills?
I’m going to side with the Bills, but I don’t like the idea of fading Mahomes as an underdog.
THURSDAY THOUGHTS: This line has moved to +2 in some books, perhaps because Dalton Kincaid and Keon Coleman missed Wednesday’s practice. Amari Cooper was limited.

A Lions board would be a good place to start
Goof threw 5 INTs and they still won last weekend [Reply]

HP posted broadcast bits from a 49ers game in '90 in the same scenario and they were saying "if they don't win every game by 3 touchdowns, people say they're struggling".

Playing this way because we are used to it and pull out wins is one thing, but it's also a weird bounce away from being bounced in the playoffs.
I think that’s just what you have to expect in late January/February football.
The last time the offense looked truly potent in 2022, we won three playoff games by a combined total of 13 points (7 against JAX, 3 against CIN and 3 against PHI).
Not much different from the following season where the offense seemed stagnant and the defense was elite. [Reply]
