Travis Kelce... is open on every play

[Inigo Montoya]

Kelce is open on every damn play.  Not a step on the defender open, but no one within five yards of him open. 

 

Kelce is obviously a fantastic football player with an incredible mix of size and athleticism, but what you see on the field with Kelce is the value of Andy Reid off the field.  Reid is able to scheme that guy open a hundred different ways.  He is the focal point of the Chiefs' offense, he is the one guy the defense absolutely has to cover, and he is still running wide open all over the field.   

 

Dorsey needs to shamelessly steal every one of Andy Reid's designed Kelce plays and put them in his playbook.  Run them with Knox, run them with Diggs.  I don't care who you run them with, if they have five yards of empty turf around them, the play is going to move the sticks.  

 

If imitation is the highest from of flattery, Dorsey needs to start blowing some sunshine up Andy's prodigious backside ASAP.

It’s the combo of Reid and mahommes 

 

mahommes is much more consistently accurate short to intermediate to allow these schemes to work

Mahomes thrives in the short/quick passing game.  Allen/Dorsey refuse to do it

If it was that easy as “copying” wouldn’t every team be doing it?

Well, the ones who have Kelce and Mahomes. It’s a unique combo.

Yeah. Kelce is just pretty damn good at finding/creating that open space too.

It is a copy cat league.  I think the Bills have the skill players to do it.  

[Buffalo03]

Just triple cover him every play. I feel like teams don't do this enough

So what’s stopping them ? Kelce has been kicking their ass for years…

 

Im more worried how the Bills stop him next week ( if they win of course… I’m. not looking past the Bengals )

Do you really not know how to spell Mahomes, after all this time?

[GoBills808]

Kelce is the greatest TE of all time

 

You're not going to get similar results w Knox no matter how many plays you steal 

[strive_for_five_guy]

Lane Johnson mauls his opponents every play too.  McD and Dorsey need to  scheme something up so that Spencer Brown does that every play too.

That’s exactly my question, what’s stopping them?

 

Some of that is Kelce, no argument, but a lot of that is also scheme.

[Buffalo03]

He doesn't really scheme him open, if you have ever noticed on replays, a lot of times Kelce is running in one direction and then stops and starts running back the other direction and gets himself open on his own. It's not always Reid getting him open on routes

Would you be happy with 75% of Kelce’s production?

sorry .. I thought it was answered already..

 

Kelce is a special player

 

Knox  can’t do what he can do 

 

[Mark Vader]

Kelce was open all the time when they played us earlier this season.

 

The Bills won that game.

So you don’t think Dorsey should shoplift some of Reid’s most successful plays then?

[Brand J]

As they say on the basketball court, “D up on that guy and follow him to the locker room if you have to.”

[GETTOTHE50]

Tremaine SHOULD have the athletic ability to play kelce mono y mono.
