On edit: Finally bothered to watch the breakdown and saw the point of the post — it actually came pretty close to working.
A screen is a good play there.
Because you can always assume that Spags is sending extra pressure in a 'gotta have it' play.
I actually really like your passion and knowledge for the game but sitting in your comfortable swivel chair with the heater on in the house and a clicker in hand makes the game very easy
Having two unblocked, unimpeded defenders believe it or not is pretty difficult to… https://t.co/AC7I9P4zMO

He was really good last night. The PD was something we rarely see from him.he was really good as the spy and in run defense. The drive they ran all over us was aimed at Omenihu who got taken to the cleaners during that stretch.
Don’t get me started on Trey Smith. He was good on some of the run pulls but he was struggling all night against Oliver. Creed more than helped him out there
I would like to amend this post bc Bolton’s weakness of being slow still showed through last night as seen here:
But Trey’s run blocking on move/pull plays doesn’t seem terribly difficult for Kingsley to replicate since moving is his best feature.
Kareem Hunt's opening drive TD and Patrick Mahomes final TD came on the same run concept out of the same formation.
G-T Counter Read out of a Diamond backfield. DE stays home on the 1st play, Mahomes hands it off. DE crashes the 2nd time, Mahomes keeps it with blockers in front. pic.twitter.com/k4NmNFYXFr
Here is my view of Kincaid’s 4th down drop. He is much more open than shown on the telecast and the worst part is he didn’t adjust literally at all. I am sick. pic.twitter.com/KuNapo9iPm

And it SHOULD'VE worked.
GK just made a really good play.
That play might go for 40 if not for George. There are 8-10 plays I'm really looking forward to seeing again when I watch the broadcast tonight, and that's high on the list. [Reply]

Allen slides protection and it's not at all a 'slow developing' play. He has Shakir on the orbit and Johnson on an underneath drag -- both plays open and would've been easy 1st downs.
Play call was fine - his QB didn't read the defense right.
It's really that simple, IMO.
Allen is not even close to Mahomes at processing the field before and after the snap.
What makes Allen games so close is he is Unicorn of a QB in short yardage and is usually automatic in the red zone and short yardage when Buffalo needs a first down or touchdown. [Reply]

George has quietly become one of our most important defensemen this season. He's been outstanding. [Reply]

He made a really good hit without it being a penalty hit on Allen in the last play of the game. Smart play. Looked like he could have landed on Allen or hit him differently but had the awareness to do it without penalty worthy force. [Reply]

I noticed in the Texans game the way our defenders hit the QB compared to what the Texans were doing. You can tell our guys have been coached on how to deliver a hit without drawing a flag on it [Reply]

If they need 30, they'll have it. I'm absolutely confident there.
But I'm not sure they have 35.
So I'm going to go with 31-27 Chiefs.

I don't anticipate being comfortable at any point and I'll spend the whole game annoyed about that fact.
I think we should be able to win this one without having to sweat out the final seconds. But that's just now how this Chiefs team rolls.
If you aren't cursing, it must not be gameday. THAT'S their identity at this point.
Had it a little wrong in the margins, but otherwise damn near nailed it and damn near nailed the final score. [Reply]
This right here is why in full transparency you have to post your address with these. Someone needs to put a boot in his ass. You work at ESPN. Call Alex, call Dan, call Timmy H. Just call someone before you do this and lose whatever credibility you had. I’m serious though,… https://t.co/ZluaB2MEeN
