We didn't bring him here to play contain, we brought him here to rush the passer which he's done. Babich needs to be aware of his skill set and stop leaving him on an island. It was shocking the number of outside runs where Bosa was the only player in the way of Kamara picking up chunk yardage. That is just not putting him in any kind of position to succeed. Yeah Van Demark missed his block. But you don't call that play unless you know the RT can execute the pull. Again this comes down to coaching putting their players in a position to succeed. And even if it was Spencer Brown I still would have hated that play call. That series featured three straight plays where neither Allen or Cook touched the ball. That's a gift to the opponent. Sanders popped a bit today as well. Nothing that shows up on the stat sheet but he had a couple quick wins that impacted the play. He is definitely still figuring it out and is behind Walker in his development, but I'm glad they're letting him get the reps now and not pulling him for like Jordan Phillips. When Oliver comes back healthy I get pretty excited about what that group could look like. Hopefully Hoecht gives us some legit pass rush ability because that spot opposite of Bosa has been practically non-existent through 4 weeks.

Games like this kind of bore me. Just horrid defense on both sides.

Yeah it was the game for Dallas because it ensured their putrid defense would give up a TD quick enough for their offense to have a chance. But they may have left too much time themselves. We'll see.

Dallas made Russell Wilson look like an all-pro and this is the best Jordan Love can do?

In the first 3 games we gave up TDs on 71.43% of red zone trips which ranks 27th in the NFL... Then today we gave up 2 TDs on 4 RZ trips but one of those stops only happened because Rattler threw a horrible ball on 3rd down. That's not exactly "clamping it." Bend don't break doesn't work when they, you know, break. The defensive metrics look okay, like yards per play we are 15th, yards per game we are 10th. But situationally it has been a bad defense. All the metrics don't really matter when you are bad on 3rd downs and in the red zone. Because those plays are what decide drives and game scripts.

Probably true but that defense is going to continue to be a real problem. They were down 6 defensive starters by the end of this game, and key starters at that. They'll get a couple guys back I'm sure but that's a lot of holes to make up for.

Looks like the Rams will hold on and that puts us as the last undefeated team in the AFC.

Lmao He had Andrews wide open on the left. That is hilarious.

Andy Reid is the best in the business at putting defenders in conflict. It's been every pass on this drive.

I will say the KC run offense mostly stinks, but they get 2 yards whenever they need it. Not a lot of great plays but also no negative yardage.

Would be absolutely hilarious if at the end of the season the #1 seed comes down to Adonai Mitchell letting go of the ball 1 yard too early.

I understand Baltimore's pass rush being weak with the injuries they have, but the 2nd and 3rd levels are too talented to have so many breakdowns in coverage. This is turning into an embarrassing loss and it makes you wonder if their season will go completely off the rails.

??? Last year Tua, Russell Wilson, and Brock Purdy had a better passer rating than Mahomes so that means they threw the ball better than him? Nobody really pays attention to passer rating anymore.

Okay then we need 4 pro bowlers and 3 1st all-pros for his defense to be championship caliber... Do you see that anywhere in the near future? Or we can just score 40 PPG and steamroll our way to a championship. Personally I felt that that was within reach. I'm polluting this thread though so that will be my last on that particular subject.

Yeah for sure. Do we have enough on offense to win that way? I don't think we do against a Spags coached defense.

Man you just aren't going to convince anybody with this. KC's defense is looking better against the Ravens than ours did against the Saints, let alone what ours looked like against the Ravens. And KC's defense isn't full of superstars. Spagnuolo is just that good. Be realistic about what you're watching, come on.

Wow Adonai Mitchell just had an insane downfield catch and broke a tackle to run into the endzone, but he let the ball go 1 yard outside of the endzone and it goes through the back. Colts stay down 3.

The one LB completely turned his back away from where the play went. This defense just doesn't have enough pieces with all the injuries, Reid is going to easily take advantage.

Well yeah our personnel decisions on defense are driven by our head coach's philosophy. I don't know how you can watch KC in this game compared to our defense in week 1 and not feel some kind of way about the coaching.

If Mahomes could hit those deep passes more consistently they'd be legit unstoppable. The scary thing is we know he can hit those.

Spags is just so good man. KC has the best defensive coach in the NFL and no chance of losing him to another team. Maybe still the best offensive coach too.

No it isn't just us. But Reid vs Brady and Spags vs Babich is about as big a gap as you can have, I'm sorry to say. I think we are more talented than them and I think Allen has been playing better than Mahomes, that's what gives us a chance.

Not this year they don't. McDuffie is the only guy in the secondary that pops. Chris Jones isn't the same guy this year. They are just extremely well coached.

Don't love that KC is ramping up and still have their best WR coming back in 3 weeks. Reid is still amazing. They have no run game and Mahomes hasn't been at his best, but the scheme and play calling just keeps sustaining drives. Every week they are out coaching their opponent.

Yeah you can without that WR if you have elite coaching and a great defense.
