Rocbillsfan1 Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 the only thing we have is the footage, and at no point does his head make any type of serious impact. Um what? The top of his head smashes into the ground. Looked pretty painful to me. 2
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 (edited) Dear Patrick be wary. edit - I remember this vividly. at one point in the live feed his eyes were open and glassy. It was a horrible way to see a great player to end his career Edited January 22, 2021 by SlimShady'sSpaceForce 1 1

Yeah no kidding. But at the very least, could impact his mobility or some of the plays they run. 1

Beast Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Figure it out quick Sunday just how healthy Mahomes is with the head and toe. Blitz heavy for two or three plays to see mobility and reads....then adjust from there. Try to make him uncomfortable right away. 6

PrimeTime101 Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 22 pages on this topic only guarantee one thing. Mahomes will play.... 1 2
Just Joshin' Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Assuming he clears protocol, does this change the strategy if he has a toe issue and may be gun shy? Do you blitz more and make him hurry if he can not escape as well? Most pundits seem to think replicate the week 6 game plan but I suspect Fraser will change it up. 1

Pretty sure the last thing you want to do to mahomes is blitz. They need to put pressure on him with 4 (easier said than done) 1 1

Regardless of what kc says mahomes has to feel like trash, add in the foot he couldn't put weight on and I think he's going to struggle atleast some. I just can't see him feeling comfortable hanging in the pocket no matter how tough he is. I could be wrong though

I just can't see him feeling comfortable hanging in the pocket no matter how tough he is. I could be wrong though I agree you want to do what you usually don't.......get Mahomes moving out of the pocket and hopefully put him on his back a few times early.......and see if he is up to the task. New England did it pretty well in the first half of the 2018 AFC title game and got ahead early. If he's not at his best I'd like my chances with him playing from behind a lot better than in that game though.
Nitro Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 I want the defense to hit him early and see how he responds.

DCofNC Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 I’d be sending Poyer on the blitz from play 2 forward (they will run play one). Poyer is the guy who will get there and he will lay him out. If he gets up and plays well, good. If that’s the end of him for the game, sorry, but it increases our odds of winning. You know they are coming for any weakness, gotta go for theirs.

If you don't blitz the first two to three plays to see how he reacts, that would be, IMO, dumb. 1

SoCal Deek Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 I noticed last week that the Bills tended to let up on the sideline when Lamar scrambled. The Ravens on the other hand shoved Allen every chance they got. I’ll be interested to see how the Bills handle Patrick. Nothing dirty...but definitely don’t let up or back off while he’s still in the field of play.
