plenzmd1 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I may be remembering this wrong..but i remember being excited last year after both of the first two preseason games. And they played against starters for Cincy and it was an "oh poop" moment..like yep, we are going to be really bad. Joshs first start..but it was more the OL is gunna be a major issue this year...and sure as hell it was. I am kinda optimistic again this year, but oh oh..3rd week coming up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then reality struck. This year does feel a bit different, although I'm sure I've said that before as the unabashed homer I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasons1992 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Listening to Bill Simmons' podcast on The Ringer right now, with ESPN's Matthew Berry. Did you all know that Josh Allen was the #1 fantasy QB in the league, Weeks 12-17? Amazing. Let's keep that going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they will try to knock off some of the running this year but we'll see. 1 minute ago, Metal Man said: They were advertising it during the national broadcast of the Saints/Chargers game yesterday so it is probably safe to assume you will be happy.

I am kinda optimistic again this year, but oh oh..3rd week coming up Yeah last year Allen had finally worked his way up to the 1s and we were all excited then for whatever reason they replaced the entire O line with traffic cones and Josh took a beating and we ended deciding to try and use Peterman as a meat shield going into the season. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 It will definitely be encouraging if the first team offense and defense puts up another performance like last week. I still don't put much stock in the preseason. I want to see how our OL looks against that Jets defensive front Week 1. Quinnen Williams was mauling Atlanta OL'man this past week. Hopefully Morse is back and doesn't take any head shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 In that game I was actually more concerned with Dalton and John Ross smoking our defense. But the defense turned out all right (after the first 6 quarters of the regular season). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the chiefs played a somewhat conservative game in week 17 as they already had a bye. Only threw the ball 24 times before coming out in the 4th quarter. Allen also didn't have good numbers in week 14 and 16 against the NYJ and NE. I think he's a backup fantasy QB - but the 600 rushing yards and 8 TDs is awesome for fantasy purposes. Especially in leagues where you only get 4 pts for a passing TD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the defense turned out all right (after the first 6 quarters of the regular season). We're not a particularly exotic defense (it seems like we're in quarters 75% of the time) - but we have some looks that we use to confuse QBs. We tend to not use those and just rush 4 and play zone, maybe flip to man for a drive just for film purposes - despite this not really being a winning strategy to kind of show your hand like that. Not much in the way of stunts either. You aren't trying to win, you're trying to see how your players perform when the offense knows what you're doing. But other teams probably run the same 10 plays and just look at how it looks vs. zone vs. man etc. So it's all kinda BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
