I just feel like everyone is going to spend all week talking about Mahomes' ankle or Burrow being a Demigod or Chase against this young secondary or Lou Anarumo being a psychopath...and then in the end it's just going to Samaje Perine bludgeoning Bolton and Gay to death.

Honestly, he probably moved Stone with his eyes. Again, regardless of anything, you execute a 4th and 16 very low percentage conversion play, game over in your favor. I'll take a 4th 16 every single time at the end of a game. [Reply]

The spy would be the key. Once the front runs their stunts and the oline starts engaging, he has the ability to see if there's an opening to press or to just mirror at the LoS. [Reply]

Here’s what separates elite QBs like Mahomes/Brady/Montana and good/great QBs like a Burrow/Marino/Rodgers. The elite ones might not always put up the best stats game in and game out or per season, but there’s no one who’s more dangerous with the ball in their hand with the game on the line.
A great example was the last SB. When KC needed a FG to tie it up and go to OT there was little doubt Mahomes was going to do it. Even the refs commented on that when SF had the ball around the 2 minute warning.
Then after SF gets a FG in overtime essentially everyone hoped KC would fail, but deep down they knew how it would end because Mahomes, when it matters the most is inevitable.
So congrats on Burrow’s numbers under pressure. [Reply]
