And we dont need Clowney or Yannick...

Here is what is even more scary: We have $45M in cap space dedicated to Addison, Murphy, Hughes, Butler, Jefferson. Honestly they all could be replaced...

A plan to force the run does not include giving up 6+ yards per run. Why even risk passing if you can run it for 6 at will. Takes 12-15 plays and 6-8 minutes off the clock. But on a slippery night the chiefs take that all the time and avoid any injuries.

KC led 13-10 and here are its next three possesions: 82 yard drive for TD eating 8 minutes of clock 75 yard drive for FG eating 5 minutes of clock 75 yard drive for FG eating 5 minutes of clock So 3 drives going basically the entire field and eating 18 minutes of clock. That is not a good defense. Sorry.

Jauron game but he would have held KC to 17 and lost 17-10.

KC knew before the game and was even more pleasantly surprised that they could beat us running the ball. Easy day at the office for them. Mahomes and the WR basically had a bye week. Meanwhile our D looks like it needs a nap and long vacation. Our O is back to looking more like a gadget broken play offense of prior years than what we saw week 2-4.

Have to disagree. KC only scored 26 because they ran the ball 1000 times and bled the clock. The Defense did not stop them it was just a slow paced game due to KC having long drives all game long.

Klein was awful. When they watch this tape he is sitting with Murphy and Harrison.

Not going to count that. That was KC running out the clock and they still could not stop them.

Need a stop and missed fg

Well there you have it. we do suck.

Comes down to this play....

KC will either have a 6 minute drive to end game or a 3 and out.

Here is the positive. As bad as we have been Stop them, get TD and we win.

QB scramble for td here

Allen reverting to his old self. His footwork has been really bad.

This team is really bad right now. We wont beat anyone if we cant stop anything. Run up the gut 5 yards. Run outside 7 yards. Play action pass 15 yards. All day. Bad.

I can only assume the coaches see him in practice. But in game action his kicks are all over the place. Rarely is it right through the uprights. Seems like he has leg strength but accuracy issues.

Wow....

That should have been roughing. They batted the ball down at the line and still tackled and drove Allen to the ground it looked like. Wish they would show that reply.

Bad Josh, drops and Bad Defense look so far. Reminding me of the Tenn game early on.

All good points here. You watch the tape and its not just a matter of teams getting lucky or making great plays. It is missed tackles, wide open receivers, QB's running without a defender in sight, no pressure, losing the battle at the LOS and on. Long term it is concerning. To maintain this offense there will be some big bucks going out to both Allen and Diggs. While the Defense you have White locked up. But then you have upcoming decisions on guys like Milano, not to mention Edmunds and Oliver right behind that. Otherwise you have a lot of aging players in Hughes, Hyde, Poyer, and more. So you have to buy into the defense being successful as a system that can plug and play guys. Just not seeing that right now.

Yes, the O did not help. But you have to be honest that this D has been struggling all season. They have gone through stretches in every game that they cannot stop a thing. They just went 6 quarters in which the other team never punted and the Raiders only punted once. So two full games with 1 punt... Look at the drives logs for games since 2nd half of MIA. We are not stopping anyone.

Yannick was available. 3rd in the league in sacks...

Positive view - The team is 4-1. Allen has clearly improved a ton. The new weapons on offense are huge. This team can score with the best of them. One game stinker vs TEN does not change anything, they were not going to go 16-0. The D will get healthy and McD will fix it. Negative view - Yes the team is 4-1. But they were losing to MIA in the 4th quarter and took the lead with 6 minutes left. They were losing to the Rams until scoring with under a minute. Even the Raider game was in question until late. A win is a win but 4-1 with all contestable games and could easily be 2-3 or even 1-4. The TEN was a disaster as has been the D all season. Only the Bills and Raiders have winning records but a negative scoring differential.
