    This is the worst Chiefs offense in the Mahomes era, and we are making it look like they still have Hill and Kelce in their prime. If this keeps up I am 100% done with McDermott. He is a defensive head coach using all of our resources on defense and he can't stop them. If not this year, he will never do it.

    Probably he won't but he's also missing a bunch of key defenders and their back ups.

    Really sucks Bernard isn't playing but hopefully McDermott planned well for his defensive scheme. Wonder how much Dorian Williams we see.

     

    Bernard probably would have been relatively ineffective, anyway 

    We're going to have to go there. Klein was key in the Steelers game but playing him vs. Mahomes isn't going to end well.

    Did you even watch the above video? 😂

    I did, and I thought it was extremely one-sided. Basically, the author set out to make a pro-Allen video where he emphasized areas where Josh looked good and handwaved or ignored completely areas where Josh did not. 

     

    He did the performance in losses comparison directly with Lamar only, not pointing out that Lamar had fewer losses and failing to point out Josh had way more turnovers in losses (12) than Lamar. The handwaving of the turnovers in general was weird. Because they didn't happen in the clutch, they don't matter?? Author also lumped turnovers in with sacks when looking at negative plays. How does that make sense?

     

    Even still, much of the pro-Josh stats the author illustrated were also pro-Purdy, Dak, and Mahomes. But those guys didn't get their OC fired. It's funny how we've all completely forgotten about that, and about Josh's early season struggles taking the easy play over the home run. This season was supposed to be about turning Josh into a pocket passer who didn't take as many hits. Turns out Josh needs those designed runs to be elite. Are we supposed to pretend like the Jets, Pats, and Broncos games didn't happen?

     

    So really, his case is mostly about TDs. A good portion of his rushing TDs would have gone to a RB on any other team. We lost Harris early and Cook is small, and so we elected to start giving it to Josh inside the 10. He deserves credit for that but a lot of those TDs are just canabalizing RB production. They're goosing his numbers. Purdy also has goosed numbers playing with elite weapons, but his statistical profile this year was one of the greatest seasons OF ALL TIME.

     

    Josh definitely deserved to be in the top 5 for MVP given his overall production, but you have to handwave so much to get him to #1 imo.

  4. This sucks. I was really hoping Texans might pull off a miracle. This Ravens team is no joke even though there are many about Lamar itt. We need to not only win but get some important guys back, and maybe get some turnover luck. Baltimore is looking like one of the truly elite teams of the last 5 years.

  5. If it wasn't Lamar, it should have been Purdy. I think it was Barnwell who pointed out that Purdy had the 4th greatest statistical season of all time by any/a+. Dak had a better statistical season as well. Mahomes was about the same as Josh and arguably had less weapons. 

     

    Josh will hopefully prove he's the best player in the NFL with this upcoming SB run, but as for 2023 MVP, No.

  6. Counting on Bernard to give us anything in this one is probably wishful thinking. Klein, Dodson, and Williams will need to get the job done somehow. 
     

    Douglas and Johnson being able to go is perhaps more realistic from everything I’ve read. 
     

    Bottom line is the offense needs to sustain drives and put up points for us to advance. It isn’t realistic for the defense to continue bailing us out like they did so many times this year. We’re just too banged up now.

    Agreed except the MVP. Josh should have at least one but won’t get it. Ever. 

    Disagree he won't ever get one. But I'm curious, which year do you think Josh should've won?

    Meh. Brady has (and did way back when as well) way more Super Bowl appearances than Peyton, and we did it with them. Might as well start sometime.

    Manning had the MVPs, Brady had the SBs. In this case, Mahomes has the MVps AND the SBs. It's the not the same thing (yet).
