I think it’s easier to make the Super Bowl if we don’t have to play KC. if you could get the 1 seed AND NOT play KC, I’d vote for that

Good question Kirby. I’d rather the chiefs and ravens miss the playoffs and take my chances on the road

If Cook sits, who gets the lions share of the touches if the game remains close? You don’t get it.

Michael Hoecht is a freak of nature!! 9.93 RAS score

Seems like a good fit on pass plays, would probably be big trouble vs the run centric teams. Seems like it could work when we’re working with leads. Would like to see Solomon and AJ to do a little bit of that too.

I haven’t read your post yet Turk and I’ll comment on it afterwards. I was saying something similar to this premise the other day. winning the Super Bowl is the only goal. Can this team achieve that? I believe it can as long as we stay healthy enough. But we have to use Palmer more and use Keon like we did last week (unless he improves). More Palmer Kincaid and the RB in the pass game. Sprinkling in Moore, Gabe and Samuel for timely plays downfield. More play action. More passing out of the 22 and 12 personnel will keep teams honest or they’ll get burned. Point being, we didn’t NEED another WR. Another WR would’ve improved our offense. No question. I just don’t think that it was necessary. We can win with what we have and long as we don’t commit stupid untimely penalties and don’t lose anymore key players to injury.

I agree with the post. We have a very good offense, especially when our run game is successful. The one thing that’s missing though. What happens when an opponent shuts down our run game in the playoffs? Can we lean on the pass game to bring us home? Maybe. Maybe not. I tend to think Josh will make a play. Then another an another. But sometimes we need a pass catcher to make a play, not just Josh. Time will tell. If the D continues to play like they did vs KC, maybe we won’t need them to, but there’s always what if they don’t. They usually don’t.

I can’t help but wonder what would’ve happened if humans didn’t have feet, only legs. Would Nike exist?

Let’s face it, the playoffs with Josh, Patty and Lamar is better than the playoffs with just Josh and Patty.

The chiefs are “girls that don’t know football and KC’s Team”. Everyone else can’t stand them….other than the little front running kids that only root for winners

Dalton Kincaid

I couldn’t have said it better myself. He’s a treat to watch. Behind our OL, he’s the perfect back. I just wish we’d get to see him in the pass game more. Maybe we’re saving that stuff for the playoffs

Yeah we need him (sanders) to if someone else goes down. I really liked sanders as a prospect and was really excited for him. I thought he had a somewhat high floor and would contribute as a rookie. it sucks that the unit Beane invested the most in, is yet again devastated by injury. DreMont Jones is the only guy that was traded that we would’ve been capable of trading for. We also would’ve had to give up more than the ravens due to their record being much worse. Tough to hate on not trading for players that weren’t traded. I wanted Calais Campbell in a big way. He wasn’t traded so I’m not going to be mad at him for not trading for him. it wasn’t a great market.

We’re down to barebones on the defensive line though. Unless Solomon, Jackson and/or Sanders show up and make some plays, sustaining another injury to the DL could sink us.
