I appreciate what Cole and Emannuel have meant to this team but it's time to make Diggs, Davis, Knox and McKenzie our top 4 receivers. I think both 1 & 11 are gone.
Our DL will have to win this game. Our rotation must be on fire and ready to explode on every play. Josh will get us his obligatory 28+ points. I have no doubt our front 4 will have to win it. You can't stop Kelce & Hill but if you can keep Mahomes in the pocket and pressure him, we win. This #1 D needs to shine.
That's why I have no doubt we're drafting a CB in the 1st round. We obviously still need Guard/Tackle depth, but with the recent OL resurgence, we can get someone across from Tre if Levi leaves.
CB, OL, OL, DT
I agree. Isaiah is fast (4.40) but Tyreek (4.29) has an extra gear and twitchiness that McKittrick doesn't have. I'd still give him a ton of touches this Sunday.
Unfortunately guys like Stefon and Cole seem to go down quickly after the catch. Regardless of who covers Kelce, first its imperative to jam him at the LOS. Then keep him in front of you with support. It's when he's galloping across the center of the field that kills you. Be prepared for those stupid shovel passes inside the 10.
Trust me, when I suggested this I cringed too. I just don't see anyone else on this team who compares in size and speed. If you don't jam him at the line, it won't matter who covers him. Maybe Josh can cover him?
