Mahomes has overthrown a bunch of deep targets this year. That one wasn't even remotely close

Mahomes is all tough hitting defenders along the sideline, until he has to make a real tackle

Nice throw Patty

They're really still keeping Hunter at CB too? I don't know man, I think you gotta let the rookie develop in one area.

That whole drive is the most calm cool and collected that I've seen Trevor Lawrence since he entered the league. Actually made some plays for his team. Good for him.

Have they finally figured out that Hunter is a WR only? Enough of the two way nonsense. He looks like a legit weapon when he's allowed to focus on it.

Yeah it is a legit concern but we don't have the benefit of being picky. We lost that benefit when we let DK Metcalf get away. Or even Jerry Jeudy who right now would be the best WR on our team. We'd have Olave through 2026 before we would need to extend him so you'd just let it play out and hope you win a Super Bowl one of those two years, and if that happens then the rest doesn't matter.

The problem with trading for a CB like him is we just drafted one with our 1st rounder and just paid Benford. Any team that trades for him will need to sign him to a long term deal. I'd prefer to just let the defense resolve itself. Oliver will be back, Ogunjobi and Hoecht will be back, Hairston hopefully will be ready for the stretch run if nothing else. The WR room on the other hand has no reinforcements coming. What we have is what we're stuck with and it simply isn't good enough to win a championship with. They already fumbled DK Metcalf. They need to rectify it. Not a role player, a legit #1 caliber WR that can play outside. Olave should be the target, even if it costs a 1st you just have to go for it at this point.

He never looks confident as he goes to throw the ball. Makes me nervous every time the ball leaves his hand

Okay we've made it past Andy Reid's playground opening script plays and Jax's defense seems to have settled in. That's good at least. Gives them a chance.

We'll see. I'm big on judging the look of the respective teams more than the result early on. For KC everything looks easy, for JAX everything looks hard. Maybe that will change. They need to stop them cold on this drive and the opening 2nd half drive to stay in it IMO.

In real time I thought the WR lost track of the ball and made a poor catch attempt. But that whole drive doesn't happen unless BTJ slips and the officials call it DPI.

A weird DPI and 3 dropped picks on one throw probably isn't sustainable though. KC in general is all over their plays and the pocket is constantly messy

4 different guys dropped the ball on that play

Oh that was a dumb penalty. Can they do anything meaningful with it?

I mean he just ran headfirst into two defensive linemen.

KC's coaching is too good. Their players on both sides of the ball know exactly what to do in every critical moment. They are not a team of superstars anymore, especially on defense, but they can cycle guys in at random and make them perform above their normal capabilities.

I just don't understand how you pick the flag up. If you don't call it in the first place okay fine it is a judgment call based on a few inches. But what could possibly prompt you to pick it up after calling it on the field?

Lol to the rules analyst explaining why it's a good call as the officials announce there is no penalty

Oh that is embarrassing CB play. Just totally lost the ball in the air

I don't know, it seems to work really well. No two plays look alike and it's just tough for the defense to keep pace. KC has a very unconventional set of WRs and they're using them the best way they can.

Nice work from #2 drawing the punch and having the restraint not to throw one back

Lawrence does some really dumb stuff for a guy that's been starting a few years.

This will be the logline on Beane's pink slip if that day ever comes.

Fair enough, he says his source is TruMedia. I usually use TeamRankings.com. On there they show Rousseau with 2 passes defensed on the year and no other Bills player with any (hasn't been updated to include Epenesa's from yesterday). Off the top of my head I can't think of any legit pass breakups from the secondary. Certainly not 11. So I'd like to know how that stat is being charted by different sources.
