Simon Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 He's got quite a size/speed ratio and has been sort of impressive with how much power he can play with while he's on the move. Can the Bills sic 'em on Travis Kelce? 5 1 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 (edited) As long as the Bills continue to play McDermott's soft shell zone, he will find huge cavities. It won't matter the size or speed of the db. For years I thought Tremaine with his size & speed would be the perfect guy to man up Kelce. But Sean had other scheme formations that did little to stop him. At least Travis seems to be slowing down a little.

EmotionallyUnstable Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Situationally maybe. If he’s out wide at #1 then yes. I just don’t see a scenario where he’d follow him to the slot/H. I think it’ll be more effective to try and get disruptive off of the LOS with DEs and LBs, as I’m anticipating a lot of zone looks with minimal pressures. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f0neguy Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Kelce this year isn’t the same guy we’ve watched in the past. He’s still a threat and the D needs to know where he is all of the time. Could Douglas keep him in check? I think he could. Will McD change his defense from zone to a man/zone combo? I don’t think so. I just hope they press the receivers at the line to throw off their timing a little bit. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can the Bills sic 'em on Travis Kelce? I feel that they had a pretty good plan on Kelce the last time they played in KC. They beat him up on the line with Siran Neal. My guess is they play some sort of variation of that so I guess Douglas could fit that role Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 They’re probably gonna throw a lot of different looks at Kelce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevestojan Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 It’s always shocking to me that every single chiefs game I’ve ever watched that he’s played in, at some point I’ve said “how did he get that wide open?” at least thrice. I’m starting to think all the coaches in the NFL have tried everything and he might actually just be that good. Like GOAT good. That said, the only option is to double up on him. But you can’t do that every play and expect to get a ton of pressure on Mahomes and/or leave a spy. In short, I have no ***** clue. Thanks for attending my Ted Talk. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, id be willing to let him be the only option for Kelce and lock down everything else then beat the ***** out of old man Kelce every touch her gets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I absolutely want to see somebody ripping, tearing, jabbing him most downs and dropping knees and shoulders on him at every opportunity. Douglas could be a good candidate for that role and with extra time this week to draw it up and run through it, there's some potential there. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyo321 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Kelce this year has looked really slow compared to previous seasons. This is actually good for us because he has always been a problem for our D. I just don't see him with more than 5 catches in this game, unless Mahomes really has lost all faith in his WR1 & WR2 dropping more passes in this game and forces the balls into Kelce.

To be fair to Derm, Edmunds sucks. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
