Halftime adjustments

Umm, how about the defensive pressure they starting bringing? Mahomes was running around 10 yards in the backfield before he could even get off a pass due to the pressure the Bengals were bringing. Their DT Hill even got an interception, which doesn't happen often for the big defensive line guys unless there is pressure.

They started dropping 8 into coverage, having one safety move up and linebackers drop back to basically have a double team on every WR/TE. Surprisingly seams like the Chiefs didn't adjust and start running more and Mahomes was just standing back there numerous times having no idea what to do

 

 

So they dropped 8 into coverage and started bringing more pressure?  Dam, their defensive coordinator is a friggin genius.  lol

it doesn't take a genius. sometimes an adjustment is to stop doing the very thing that isn't working. when you find something that does, stick to it until it doesn't work anymore.

It was a tongue in cheek comment.  One poster said they started dropping 8 in coverage, another said they started bringing more pressure.

Ive never seen why everyone slobbers over Eric Bienemy so much. Half of their offense seems like its just Mahomes buying time and improvising and whenever defenses find something that starts working against them he never seems to have a counter for it

I'm not going to blame Bienemy. He didn't make Mahomes throw two picks, and neither did he make the decision to not kick the field goal. That loss was not on him, it was on Mahomes and Reid. Mahomes needs to stop trying to win the game all at once, and take the underneath throws that the defense is giving him.

    • I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction     
    • Better than a fragile starter, though
