It’s wild that you have the game plan and none of these idiot nfl DCs received it yet!

All NFL coaches have an innate ability to over complicate things.

I really like both Rice and Ross. Rice was a baller in college but has an issues with drops. Ross is coming off some big injuries but is very talented.

 

But if you did to this almost any other qb but Mahomes, fans would be outraged. It’s a very bad group minus Kelce. 

So are we criticizing the Chiefs recent drafts, McDuffie aside?

 

Prior to this year, we’d be celebrating in the streets if Beane gave Allen the OL Mahomes has been given along with a 4.3 deep threat and back to back RD2 WR’s.

Hoping that Dalton can make that kind of a difference for us

This is what happens when you are so concieted that you think you can win with no WR playmakers.  They will obviously be better with Kelce but I don't think you win a superbowl with this WR group.

 

[C.Biscuit97]

I sometimes ask myself how do idiots like Wright and Skip Bayless makes so much money with the dumbest takes ever. Then I see threads about him and realize so many people fall hook lne and sinker for it. 

[QB Bills]

If they make another live action Smurfs movie, he'd make a perfect Gargamel.

Kelce might have made a difference but that Detroit pass rush was legit, and probably would have sacked Mahomes several times if the refs didn't give Jawaan Taylor a free pass to false start and line up off the line all game.

I feel like I'm losing my mind.

 

"How is Mahomes supposed to win with bad tackle play and WRs that drop a lot of passes??"

 

How about that!

McKenzie vs the Chiefs last year got pretty close to Toney last night.

I mean they won the SB last year so how much can you criticize them? Rice has one td in one game but Moore has been a disappointment. 
 

I will say that the Chiefs haven’t drafted any good receiver since Hill though. They have a bunch of JAGs playing with an all time great. It’s kinda like the Pats every year when they didn’t have Moss.

 

but they definitely seem to have worse receivers than us.

Friday Morning Quarterbacking. 
 

One thing that is crystal clear after last night.  Chiefs need Kelce more than they need Jones.  The Chiefs offense just looked discombobulated without that big lug in the middle of the field and at the goal line.

He was anything BUT outstanding last night.

 

Oh, I disagree.  His decision making was superb.  His movement in the pocket is excellent, and his decisions to run are almost always correct.   Give him a 10-yard completion instead of the pick six that was totally not on him, and his passer rating was in the 90s.   Give him a better receiver (Kelce, or a wideout), and Chiefs would have cruised.  All they needed was one score. 

 

There is no one better.

I like old school hardass tough guy Dan Campbell.

I also like new school dweeb Mike McDaniel.

That kind of contrast is what makes the NFL fun.

Go Lions! (and bills)

Thing is, while Campbell has the old school kneecap-biting persona, he is actually one of the more progressive and pass-oriented coaches.

Me personally, I think Veach crushed the drafts prior to these past two years. 
 

Those picks, along with their FA spending on the OL is what has been driving their success with Mahomes/Kelce/Jones. 
 

That said … Moore seems meh, we’ll see about Rice (although he also struggles with drops).   
 

On defense, we’ll see about their EDGE pick from this year, but Karlaftis reminds me alot of Epenesa.

Mike McDaniel is the Jimmy Fallon of NFL coaches. Never understood the appeal in the first place but I’m enjoying everyone coming around to the fact he’s a jerk. 

[uninja]

I give the Lions major props for this W, that's a tough thing to do to go into Arrowhead as an underdog and play a hard nosed game against the former SB champs.

 

That being said, week 1 is always a liar. I've watched so many teams (*cough* Chiefs, Pats *cough*) start slow, go 2-2, everyone saying the sky is falling and then they go into October having sorted out their ***** and just grind out W's otw to another SB.

 

This game tells us nothing. We see the Chiefs in December and we'll know exactly what kind of team they are by then.

He wasn’t Mahomes level but how many qbs win that game with that crew? He wins if Toney wasn’t completely terrible. 
 

that’s definitely a stats don’t show good he type of game. He wasn’t MVP Mahomes but he was pretty damn good considering what was around him.

He is a great offensive mind. We would be creaming ourselves if he was calling plays for us. 
 

this board loved crappy on Tua and McDaniel helped him have the highest qb rating in the league. He’s a top 5 offensive coach. And definitely a nerd.
