No jones and Kelce but nearly unlimited offensive holds and false starts lol look at how badly one hold derailed their final drive and imagine that all game.

Inexcusable decision that likely lost them the game…I don’t care how many superbowl rings he has.

It’s the oline mostly…they just let a serviceable tackle and a good tackle leave inexplicably lol I don’t think just adding Kelce back fixes all the issues everyone always sends all the credit mahomes’ way but that pass blocking was a hugely important component. They’d be getting butchered in the trenches right now if their olinemen weren’t getting away with murder

If the rules applied to his RT I’m pretty confident the lions would win this one lol

Collingsworth talking about chiefs olinemen getting away with murder like they’re just smart players is an all timer collingsworth moment

Did this guy not say he was gonna take a pay cut to keep his weapons not too long ago? Lol what a crock

I don’t want to put words in his mouth but I think he’s comparing on paper going into the season that year to on paper going into the season this year. Like did anyone really know cole was unwashed or John brown was gonna go over 1k receiving yards? I think it’s josh making the receivers more so than the receivers making josh so it’s very possible someone maybe unexpected going into the season is gonna go off this year also.

That’s pretty funny timing…I just saw a video of mike florio saying we could finish last in the division to be fair everyone said the rest of the division caught up to the chiefs last year and they won the superbowl soooo 😂

burrow gets the ball out quick to elite,physical receivers that get open fast and can beat you deep so you have to respect that as well. we were down Daquan jones also which imploded the run defense so the bengals really were never in a position where pass rush could’ve effected them too much. I agree with a lot of what you said but I don’t think there’s much use in extrapolating the bengals results into the jets game especially when we added a pretty good pass rusher in Leonard Floyd. the jets oline could really be anywhere between good and bad depending on how the tackles hold up. Brown is getting up there in age and he’s coming off a season ending surgery and becton is pretty much always injured. Jets oline definitely has a higher ceiling if they get a return to form from brown and becton holds up, but they’ve got a lower floor as well if those guys struggle. Not sure if a tricep surgery can have any negative lasting effects on an OL but that’s something to keep an eye on with Vera-tucker too I’d be pretty surprised if the jets win this game honestly, I’m sure that will change in the second matchup but right now they’ve just got so many moving parts with guys returning from injury that haven’t seen game action in awhile and a new qb/OC and so on

If you’ve gotta play the jets, week 1 seems like the best bet imo. Rodgers just hasn’t logged the game time with a lot of these guys yet also Duane brown, Mekhi becton, Vera-tucker and breece hall will be starting their first games post surgeries(if becton even starts) away against the jets week 1 and home later in the season was as good as it could’ve worked out for us it’s pretty reasonable to assume they’ll see some offensive growing pains as Brady started pretty slowly on a much more stacked bucs offense

I think if the oline can improve a bit, josh will be a lot more willing to take short throws. Of course none of us are in his head, but it’s gotta be frustrating knowing a drive killing holding penalty or a sack from pretty much instant pressure was extremely likely on any drive with a high play count.

Yea some of that can be more the system than him as a player…a lot of those people known as lockdown corners play a lot of man typically. The bills seem to be more into disguising different types of zone coverage well…that’s pretty anecdotal though I don’t know the rates we play man vs zone vs some combo of the two I would think it could’ve been conditioning for tre last season too…I don’t think his slow start was all because of not trusting his knee. Although that’s impossible to know for sure some of it can be when he returned, pass rush is a dbs best friend and ours fell off a cliff when we lost von.

I just signed up for this and I’m not sure I will financially recover lol. Fun part about YouTube tv in general is it comes with ads unless that account has YouTube premium…so if you want ad free YouTube tv and Sunday ticket you need YouTube premium,YouTube tv, and Sunday ticket 😂

Corner play doesn’t seem like it’s at a super high premium in the McDermott system anyway so as long as he’s better than last year we should be fine. the safety play last year felt like it hurt a lot more than the corners…hopefully we’ve got a healthy hyde/poyer combo.

Man I am truly the kiss of death lol. I was just on Reddit defending the pats(yuck) from jets and dolphins fans dunking on them and I was like ‘they have the best oline in the division and they dumped the bum Matt Patricia so I wouldn’t write them off yet’ this is going to be a weird year for me…I’d much rather see the jets and dolphins grab that last in the division spot than the pats. Never would’ve thought that could happen

The hype train seems to only be with nfl tv personalities lol. All this talk of the bills demise and jets being elite and yet they are 2.5 point home dogs to buffalo and their season over/under is set at 9.5 most places Unfortunately that will likely continue, once a db becomes a household name/media darling they seem to get away with murder for years

Now that there’s no 2 seed bye, the 1 seed is an absolutely massive advantage. Imo regular season results get completely discounted when talking playoffs but they really shouldn’t be. 2021-2022 the path was clear and we just blew too many regular season games. We beat the bills up for not being able to beat the chiefs when we really have played better than anyone visiting arrowhead. the josh slander is getting a bit out of control around here…dude has been carrying a bad-somewhat mediocre offensive line for 5 years.

Schedule is pretty tough….I think they’ll be better than last year skill wise but only win 11 this time and win the division by a game or two. Jets or dolphins will win 9 or 10 (probably the jets) and the one of those teams that doesn’t is gonna be the disappointment of the year

They always seem to show up in huge moments in the playoffs though…the regular season ranking doesn’t always tell the whole story. And even so, cincy was 6th in points allowed per game last year in the regular season and kc is usually hovering around the top 10. 2022 they were 8th and 2021 they were 11th. The rams are the only other Super Bowl winner with a defense outside the top 10 in points allowed per game in the last 10 years. Both those rams and chiefs Super Bowl teams got huge sacks when they needed them though, chiefs were second in sacks in 2023 and the rams were third in 2022. Breakdown of scoring defenses for Super Bowl winners is: Chiefs 16th rams 16th Bucs 8th Chiefs 8th Pats 7th Eagles 4th Pats 1st Broncos 1st Pats 8th(should’ve been Seahawks 1st lol) Seahawks 1st Of the four teams that made it to the conference finals last year, three of them were top 10 scoring defenses. 6 of the top 7 made the playoffs…only one that didn’t was the jets defensive football is still very much alive, but things are starting to shift to who can come up with those big sacks to get a clutch stop when they need one the last few years. That’s really the only way to slow down the Allen/hurts/mahomes/burrow’s of the league. The bills just haven’t been making that one big defensive play against the bengals or chiefs in the playoffs.

With the 4th and 10th overall picks 🤦‍♂️The jets picked much earlier in the draft lol. Is this seriously a point people just ignore? Not to mention they absolutely blew their early first round pick the year prior. there are a lot less sure things in the late second round compared to the early first. Compare what beane has done to other perennially good teams with late round picks, not an absolute dumpster fire franchise that will briefly be buoyed by the parity built in to the league before inevitably fading to obscurity when they can’t resign all those early picks

Could be a bit of a mix of conspiracy theory and wishful thinking lol but I think a lot of the abandoning the short throws had to do with his elbow injury. If your accuracy is a little off a lot of those underneath throws get dicey

Tua got exposed as a scheme qb last year from what I saw…doesn’t mean the scheme can’t be effective against certain opponents though and if our dline can’t step up without von it could be us 😂 We talked about how their stretch vs the chargers,49ers, bills, and packers would be telling and they fell on their face going 0-4. People seem to explain away that whole packers second half to a concussion but the packers halftime adjustments baited tua into a lot of those bad decisions…didn’t really seem like a guy that was out of it just winging the football around to me. I might buy that it was all about the concussion a little more if the chargers defense didn’t give them fits a couple weeks prior. They had a good game against us because our dline was a mess post von injury. seems like tua gets tunnel vision when he gets moved in the pocket and can’t keep his eyes downfield or set his feet to throw. Take away his first read in the middle of the field and force him to use the sidelines and he struggles. If he has to shift at all in the pocket he struggles

The dolphins have been a dark horse pick for division winner since the Flores days and the analysts wouldn’t shut up about them this year cuz they beat the banged up ravens and bills in back to back weeks lol they blew the final move of their rebuild with the Bradley chubb trade imo…they must’ve thought they were a pass rusher away from Super Bowl contender at the time. if they used that first on an offensive lineman they could be really scary right now. Chubb didn’t do much of anything for them and he was a huge overpay. They also lost a first for tampering with Brady/Payton which really hurt after trading a ton of assets for tyreek hill and spent a first on igbinoghene in 2020 who’s a bust. everybody applauds the tyreek trade but they’ve blown 3 other firsts in recent history and their window is pretty much shot once tyreek starts to decline. Currently they are a terron armstead injury away from being an absolute dumpster fire on the offensive line(which is a common occurrence)…eichenberg and Austin Jackson are both awful and they don’t have any depth past Isaiah Wynn. They rolled the dice building their offensive line around often injured terron armstead and it burned them in his first year. Things don’t look much more optimistic this year either with him going into the season hurt. they were only one of the worst rosters in the league because they traded a bunch of players for future picks and I don’t think they used those future picks entirely well. The jets are a much scarier team imo…I’d be surprised if the dolphins don’t finish third or fourth in the division

These NFL analysts just aren’t even trying anymore lol the bills lack leadership because they haven’t won a Super Bowl? Nick wright is a clown also but that’s well documented and he at least does it on purpose 😂. His chiefs are a coin flip away from being 0-3 in their last 3 against the bills all at arrowhead. I have been a nuggets fan since the Carmelo to the knicks trade and it was glorious listening to nick wright talk sh*t about the nuggets all playoffs and then be completely wrong when they won the championship haha

By a mile too…the bills at 9-8 I certainly disagree with but I could see the rationale behind it. The pats winning the division is an absurd prediction jets are a bit of an unknown, could be great could be pretty good. I think the league caught up pretty quickly with what the dolphins offense likes to do and analysts are assuming they’ll return to early last season form which I just don’t see. I’m having trouble finding 8 losses for the bills unless we’re solely basing off of the starters only preseason action lol
