oh I see. I must have missed a block of comments somewhere.

This is an arguement I have been making most of the year. Either Beane really is terrible at drafting or this coaching staff cant develop players. Could be a little of both. We have players like Hughes not do crap for years here all of a sudden get a bunch of sacks for the worst team in the NFL. We have players like Teller not play well here, get traded and become all pro. We have other rookies make a few flashes but are otherwise mediocre. Maybe some of them come on when their rookie contracts are almost up. We cant even get some rookies on the field unless its needed because of injuries. We have other rookies that our offense doesnt even know how to use or know what to do with. Knox is probably our second best weapon on the field and they rarely use him in the passing game. I could talk about this stuff all day but I just dont think our staff develops players all that well. They are of the mindset of not putting rookies on the field unless they have to. Rookies need to get experience during the season on the field.

I'm honestly not sure what you mean. My whole thread title was "I'm convinced it's coaching." Where are you talking about "for?"

He called a timeout for both plays. There is zero excuse for those 13 seconds which really should have been more like 8 seconds if they did the correct kickoff.

Id say that they would have 2 first round picks and 2 second round picks on the line and if they cant get pressure with that then someone needs to be held accountable.

Maybe because McDermott was his DC instead of Spagnola? 🤣

I wrote this thread and headline during the first or second quarter of the game. I also didnt put that part in my thread title. I assume a mod changed it. Seems to me it fits. They did handle the Bengals and they did it while losing players along the way. The flag was absolutely the right call. It was an obvious out of bounds hit. You dont let players get away with stuff like that just because it might be game deciding.

Cancun in 3 ..I..

Nah. I look at it as the ref wanted to collect himself and make sure before he made a game changing call.

No way this beat up KC teams beats Philly.

bwahahahahahaha dumb late hit

What a defensive play!

Bengals have done this to the Chiefs every single game. Start off losing, make stops all second half and win the game. Can KC change that today? They pretty beat up.

Awe what a shame scumbag apple

Little holding there? Dude had him from behind pulling him backwards right out in the open lmao.

Wow terrible coverage. Double covered and neither could make a play on the ball? lol

I dont buy that. I more so think this staff doesnt really know how to develop players. A good example is Hughes, an already developed player hasnt done ***** here for years. Goes to the worst team in the league and he is a beast. Teller was bad here. Gets traded and becomes an all pro.

I just assumed it was a cheap copy of "who dat" which I also hate.

Agree. I think he didnt locate it fast enough when he turned around.

That was a pretty poor plan coming out of halftime Chiefs

8 of their 22 starters today are rookies. We would have those guys scratched or sitting on the bench in favor of a vet role player. Unless forced to by injury of course and because they got no experience all season they wouldnt be ready for a game of this magnitude.

They pretty much play the same defense against everybody they play. They might change it up for say a team like the Ravens but thats about it. Its the same D every week. Thats why it was so easy for the Bengals to plan to beat it.

What a catch!

To me this is what our defense is... Play soft with everything in front of you. Get to the ball quick and make the tackle. Dont get beat deep. Make the team drive the entire field in short bits without the big chunks. Hope the team makes a mistake. Odds say they will over that extended amount of time. The gist of it anyways. That works against teams in the regular season for the most part. It doesnt work in the playoffs because you are now facing elite QBs. Those QBs, like Mahomes and Burrow, dont make enough mistakes for that defense to work. Which is why our D gives up a lot of points in the playoffs compared to the regular season.
