Miyagi-Do Karate

good points all around. On the release, I have seen video of teams using a DE to jam kelce. But there are obvious negatives to that too. kelce is an interesting TE. He is just really big with good hands. Not as athletic as guys like Gronk (in prime). Most of the time, he just goes out 8 yards, turns around, bodies out the defender, catches the ball, and then falls forward an extra 5-7 yards.

A couple of quick observations: 1) loved the new wrinkle with the QB sneak. I have noticed that a lot of teams do this, with a big FB standing behind the QB, pushing him on the QB sneak. It worked both times today with Davis doing the pushing. 2) the bills did a nice job with a lot of pin and pull stuff today in the run game, and got away from the read option stuff, which has been dreadful. One negative play call though was that 3rd and inches late, and they ran a QB draw or read option of some kind to Singletary that lost 3 yards. I actually thought that was the game. Just sneak it there. Had two chances to get 6 inches! 3) I remain puzzled at the free releases that they give Kelce, and I read somewhere that the bills sort of “gave” Kelce the stuff underneath in exchange for using Milano as a spy. Not sure how accurate that is, but kind of interesting. 4) The defense with such an inspired effort and gameplan, esp in the second half. They shut down the run. They basically gave up nothing over the top. And the first Juju TD was just a total fluke play— not something I would hold against them.

Ref John Hussey out there is just dying for someone to touch him. He just has that “I’m looking to eject someone look.”

i loved the 3rd and 4 play when they just handed it off and he got 5 yards. That is just cockiness. Love their head coach too— obviously brought all that gap and duo blocking from the colts.

he is a beast. I am terrified watching him play. So glad he is in the NFC now.

This eagles oline is good!

On a related topic, how was the fumble by Lil D attributed to Allen? Isn’t it just like if Allen had pitched the ball back to a RB on a sweep who drops and ball? That one wouldn’t be on the QB, would it?

Kill shot, and bring in the closer.

Oh well. I think that could be the game. Too much to ask this defense to hold them again.

I have to think Dorsey is kicking himself for that 3rd and inches…. And doing a shotgun draw!!! We should be up now!

Chiefs could go to kelce every time if they wanted. I don’t know why we aren’t even trying to jam him some. He goes out for 7 yards, and falls forward for 5 yards.

Geez. Down to Cam Lewis now.

what did I say?

I loved that sneak we ran earlier, where Davis motions behind and pushes Allen. I would do that here. Have two chances. Don’t get cute.

we made them earn that one too. If mahomes is going to make an insane play, so be it.

they are holding on every play. Have only called one on each team.

That was literally perfect coverage.

Re the pick play, that was legal, wasn’t it? Can do that within a yard of LOS.

Do not challenge this. Do not.

Ruh roh. Don’t poke the bear.

Nice kick there, buddy. Now there will be blood.

in every game over the last 3 years, they don’t jam Kelce.

That is going to backfire. This defense is going to come out playing angry here.

Ooh— McD sneaking in his favorite kind of timeout.

Best of luck to KC. The Bills played as bad of a half as you can and are up 10-7.
