Italian Bills Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Everybody knows that stopping TK is the key in order to beat KC…. so why nobody knows how stop/limit him ? How is that head coaches, def coordinators, defensive players can’t have a plan to limit his yardage at 60/70 and not let him get almost every week over 100 yards ? I really don’t get it, please help me to understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you think if it was possible to stop him they would have figured it out? The short answer is because he is too fast and athletic for a LB or most safeties to cover and too big for CBs to cover. 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillnutinHouston Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Help me understand why you needed to type "rebus", when most of your audience rode the short bus, and I'll give you an answer. 2 14 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That's No Moon Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Short answer, because you aren't allowed to light up receivers over the middle of the field anymore. Big, fast, athletic guys like Kelce and a young Gronk are basically unguardable. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you spend too much defensive capital trying to cover him with multiple players you leave huge chunks of field undefended, which is a very bad idea against Mahomes. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he has great hands and a great QB. He seems pretty fearless too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don’t get it, please help me to understand. So why did Kuup win the triple crown last year? Why don't head coaches, def coordinators, defensive players can’t have a plan to limit his yardage?? Help me understand that one? Better yet why don't you just start a thread like this: Why don't head coaches, def coordinators, defensive players can’t have a plan to limit ________________ yardage Then just fill in the blank.

I’m not saying to nullify him totally, but limit his yardage. What about doubling him with a LB and a CB ? I prefer free someone else and steal Kelce from the “duck” ‘s eyes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullBuchanan Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Why didn't we just stop Tom Brady for 20 years? It was incredibly obvious he was the key to the Pats dynasty, and yet our coaches didn't do anything about it. 1 1 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order to stop TB you have to get to him and in the pats dynasty it was pretty hard to reach him . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only had 5 regular season games last year with over 80 yards. Just b/c he put up a lot of yards yesterday doesn’t mean teams don’t game plan for him and limit his yards.

Change TB's name with Kelce and there's your answer. He's the greatest TE in the history of the game and it's not close. He redefined the position the same way Tony Gonzales did before him.

Tony Gonzales and Gronk are ahead of Kelce… in my opinion. 1 minute ago, SlimShady'sSpaceForce said: i believe it may be a puzzle Kelce puzzle Exactly 😀 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushypeaches Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 I was watching a Bills-Dolphins game from the 90's and cringing every time Henry Jones was matched up against Keith Jackson. My point is that I can't recall a time when the Bills had someone who could cover a quality TE. Might as well be as mythical as the Loch Ness Monster at this point. So maybe this is why I'm happy to finally have a decent TE worth a 2nd contract Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jauronimo Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 You limit Kelce by getting to Mahomes early and often rushing 4. That appears to be the only way to slow down KC's offense. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t blitz him if not occasionally, using the front four and dropping the other 7. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
