Is Joe Brady the main issue on offense?

Im trying to think back to LY, and I we played any pass defenses like this years schedule so far?

 

Just seems every week is a legit #1 CB/shutdown type that we are going against. 

 

Ravens: Humphrey albeit best in slot.  No surprise we did have some success throwing outside against them

 

Jets: Sauce,  top 5 type any given sunday

 

Phins: should've lit them up more, but we had some very nice drives and stuck to run too long

 

Saints: moderate success, this is when concern started IMO

 

Pats: Gonzalez is a top 5 type any given Sunday.  Also Carlton Davis, who is no slouch either

 

Falcons: Terrell, top 10 type - his length and physical play is difficult

 

Panthers: Horn is a top 5 corner IMO, hes really played well this season

 

Chiefs (upcoming): McDuffie is used all over, hes a top 5 corner overall (slot/boundary) but his length isnt ideal, you can only beat him with precise ball placement/bigger wrs

 

 

Not saying its an excuse, but should be considered that weve literally faced 3 top 5 corner types already - and McDuffie this week.  

 

I think biggest issue, we are absolutely not built to be converting 3rd and 8+ this year.  Man under 2 deep, is what we constantly face.  We have to stay in 3rd and 4 or less,  keep threat of run alive.  Means avoiding dumb penalties, dominating at OL.  That's where we are built to win, up front and using our TEs.  We did alot better this weekend getting chunks in run game.  

 

Im not sure why we dont use more stretch/bootleg right now.  We have the ability to use this.succwssfully.

 

 

 

would love a gameplan this week of targeting mcduffie with coleman. this is why they have him. also chiefs probably would not be expecting it.

I didn’t hear.  What was your takeaway?

Stated he doesn’t have any concerns about the passing game. 
 

Brought up Week 1, down big in the 4th to Baltimore as evidence of being able to throw downfield when we need to. 

 

Talked about Keon Coleman doing the right things and highlighted how he’s improved his run blocking (because apparently that’s our obsessive focus now). 
 

Just seems like he’s fixated on the run game and I’m not even sure he’d use a WR upgrade if he we got him one at this point. 
 

Just a very nonchalant presser that kept reiterating that the run game is the focus and our passing game is fine.

I never thought I would say this:

The chiefs are actually going to come to this game to stop James Cook and dare Allen to throw the ball downfield.   This would be the first time, they pay more attention a player not named Josh Allen.   This would be the game for Josh to raise above the mediocrity of the past three weeks.

The biggest thing this passing game is missing is the rhythm....Too often they are punting the ball away on a 3-and-out.  They need to build some rhythm starting with 5 yard passes and then looking for 10-15 yarders before looking for the deep hits. They need to move the chains and keep Mahomes on the sidelines as much as possible.

That’s all they throw is short passes until they are backed up.
