Makes sense to me that he'd take some good picks for the next year instead of tying his fate to a QB whose season ended before he was even hired. Also it's not hard to imagine he had more knowledge of a defensive prospect since he'd been the DC at Carolina.

Alphadawg7 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 (edited) 3 hours ago, TheElectricCompany said: To say that "defenses will adjust to him" is hilarious. What NFL defense is shutting down any top 10 passing attack? His two losses this year are when they scored 40 and 51 points! Hmmmmm...#1 passing attack and highest scoring offense in NFL history in 2007 put up just 14 points on Giants and lost SB. Same elite offense put up 17 a few years later against same Giants and lost SB. 2013, Manning and Broncos shatter all scoring and passing records Pats set in 2007...then get blown out in Super Bowl 41-8 by Seahawks. These aren’t top 10 in league, these are among top 10 and both the top 2 in history. So to answer your question...Giants (twice) and Seahawks for starters. Side Note: Top 5 offenses in NFL History 0-3 in SB and two of them never made the SB. Edited November 20, 2018 by Alphadawg7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haslett_Stomp Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Last night's game was the first time I had seen Mahomes play. I had read the articles and seen the talking heads raving about him but was skeptical. The kid can play. Two of the most respected defensive minds in the game over the past several decades have won their games against the Chiefs this year but could barely slow down the KC offense.

He was ridiculous today against the Ravens! He's in the MVP lead. Kansas City Chiefs 27, Baltimore Ravens 24 (OT) 1. You can only keep a Ferrari stuck in traffic for so long. After cruising through the first two quarters, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was stymied for the first three possessions of the second half, getting battered by Baltimore defenders left and right, throwing for just 27 yards after the halftime break. Then Mahomes hit the gas pedal. The play of the game came on a fourth-and-9 with the Chiefs trailing by seven points with 1:29 remaining. Mahomes scrambled away from the rush and tossed across his body to find Tyreek Hill downfield for a 48-yard bomb. The quarterback tossed a touchdown to tie the game and used his arm to set up the game-winning field goal in overtime. Mahomes earned every bit of his 377 yards passing on the day. The QB was clobbered repeatedly by creative Baltimore blitzes, getting hit 15 times (five by Matt Judon) and sacked thrice. Credit the Ravens defense for corralling the Chiefs for long spells of the second half. But when magic was needed, magic is what K.C. got from Mahomes, who several-times weaved around rushers to find streaking receivers. The second-year signal-caller completes throws others can only dream of attempting. Against the league's top-ranked defense, Mahomes proved he could win a playoff-type game. 2. Lamar Jackson continues to make strides as the Ravens starting quarterback. Once again Baltimore's run game dominated for stretches, including an eight-play, 75-yard touchdown drive in the second quarter, all earned on the ground. For the first time since Jackson took over, the Ravens were held under 200 yards rushing, coming up just shy, at 198. The rookie was up-and-down passing, but found strides in the second-half. The run-game keeps Jackson in manageable down and distances. Of his 13 completions, 12 went for first downs or scores. Jackson, who threw two TD passes, has done enough to earn another start when Joe Flacco returns from injury. The Ravens' offense is much more difficult to defend when the rookie starts. However, there will be questions about Jackson's ability to run end-of-game drives. Jackson was strip-sacked by Justin Houston with under 35 seconds left in the fourth quarter and the game tied. Only a Harrison Butker missed field goal gave the Ravens a chance in overtime. Would John Harbaugh have inserted Flacco at the of the game had he been active? Jackson was also injured on Baltimore's final drive. Robert Griffin III entered to throw the final two heaves of the game that went incomplete. Jackson told reporters after the game that a player landed on his ankle, but he's fine. 3. The victory clinches a playoff spot for the Chiefs, who will face the Los Angeles Chargers for AFC West supremacy on Thursday night. With New England's loss Sunday, the 11-2 Chiefs also sit in the catbird seat for the AFC's No. 1 seed. Earning home-field advantage would be huge for K.C. Playing at Arrowhead is a daunting prospect for any opponent. The loss pushes the Ravens into a tie for the AFC's final wild-card spot. At 7-6, Harbaugh's team sits tied with the Dolphins, Colts, and Titans with three weeks to go. The Ravens close out facing the Bucs, Chargers, and Browns, likely needing at least two wins to reach the postseason. -- Kevin Patra 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Reid: I thought this was Mahomes' 'best game' KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes exceeded the expectations of what he could be in his first year as a full-time starter a long time ago. On Sunday, he provided yet another indication of how special he's going to be in the near future. It wasn't so much the numbers he produced that stood out in a 27-24 overtime win over the Baltimore Ravens. It's that he once again willed his team to victory at a time when defeat easily could've been the result. Of all the great moments Mahomes has provided thus far, nothing compares to what he did against Baltimore. He didn't have Kareem Hunt, as the Chiefs released the Pro Bowl running back on Nov. 30. He didn't have wide receiver Sammy Watkins, whose lingering foot injury reportedly will sideline him for the rest of the regular season. Mahomes also had to deal with a Baltimore defense that was the best in the NFL in points and total yards allowed coming into this contest. Most quarterbacks would struggle with those circumstances. After throwing for 377 yards with two touchdowns and one interception, Mahomes reminded us once more that he's at his best when the odds are stacked against him. "He had the one interception but other than that, I thought this was his best game," said Chiefs head coach Andy Reid. "This defense was a huge challenge. These son of a guns were really good and have a really good package. They unloaded it at him and he kept bringing it. I'm proud of him for doing that. You can get a little defeated when you get hit as many times as he got hit but he stayed in there and kept firing." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
