How did the ball get to the one yard line?
what a silly tweet
I’m not sure enough is been made of Eric Fishers loss. Chiefs are 27-1 with him playing and 4-4 when he is not. Left Tackle is one of the most important positions in NFL and if you are a QB he is the one you have to trust the most as you cant see over your left shoulder when throwing. Chiefs also have Mike Remmers playing right tackle in place of Mitchel Schwartz who Von Miller roasted in Panthers-Broncos superbowl. I expect to see Bucs really dominate in the trenches here with Vita Vea collapsing the pocket and Pierre-Paul and Barrett dominating too. I think Chiefs may have to use Kelce more in blocking game while affording the Bucs to have an extra line man in coverage.[quote=“johnnysachs, post:9649, topic:30430, full:true”]

A few shovel passes to James White and Dion Lewis
Twice as many play-off wins as the next guy on the list is phenomenal whatever way you dice it. Mahomes the only one playing that can conceivably get anywhere near that, and again he’s picked up more knocks in the last couple of seasons than Brady did for long stretches of his career
Shades of the Bakhtiari loss again
Yeah which was huge for Green Bay in the championship game. Aaron Rodgers didn’t have much time to throw deep or roll out and I suspect it will be the same with Mahomes. It will probably mean you will see less of Hill on the outside and more in the slot and on medium routes. Hardman might be the home run guy to keep the safeties honest. Vita Vea being back is key for the Bucs. I can see this game being all about the Bucs defence.
Hill scorched the Buccs for 269 yards and 3 touchdowns in the regular season game. I’d say they’ll throw a few deep for him
Bowles will make adjustments. They had already started to adjust effectively albeit when they were in a hole in that game. Chiefs only scored 7 points with 6 minutes to go in 2nd quarter for rest of that game off a short field. They had doubled up on both Kelce and Hill with both starting safeties. Anyway back to this game for starters you wont have Carlton Davis picking him up. It will probably be Jamel Dean. But Hill is only as effective as long as Mahomes has time in a clean pocket. Vita Vea was missing from week 12 match up and with hime there it will mean that Mahomes wont be able to step up as much in the pocket and throw those deep balls to Hill. It will also give time for edge rushers to get to Mahomes.
Potentially. But the chiefs offensive line has been very impressive all year, even with injuries. JPP and Barret got to Mahomes twice the last day, once each. CEH back and having Bell means the run game might be functioning enough to throw the scent off the blitz/rush
I think it will be low scoring as both defences are potentially capable of getting on top
Yeah I think it will be low scoring too and starting field positions/special teams will be important. History of superbowls in recent times has been that the starstudded defence gets on top of the star quarterback. I dont see Bucs blitzing much as number 1 Mahomes is best in the league against blitz and number 2 I think TB will get away with just rushing 4. Bell has been disappointing. I expect Williams to get plenty of carries. Last year in the superbowl with a healthy OL Chiefs used Williams a lot so I expect the same again. Nick Bosa terrorised the Chiefs in that game and eventually Kelce had to be used more in pass protection and run game which meant he only had 40 yards. I can see something similar playing out.
what’s number 3?
Brady = god.
I can really see the Buccs winning this
The betting is very tight. 4/7 Chiefs and 7/5 Buccs
that is the opposite of very tight. the buccs are massive underdogs on that betting
I read half of it… He discredits Brady and Wilson for being on defensive teams yet doesn’t acknowledge that Mahomes has arguably the best WR and TE in the league, certainly the best combo of both anyway. Would Paddy be as good without such weapons? Probably… but he starts off saying there will be lots of silly debates in the lead up to Sunday and then engages in a silly debate.
He’s right tho that Mahomes does have the tools to redefine the QB position. He’s got everything in his locker… But if his weapons are taken away, can he still get it done? It’s a test for down the road but one he’ll have to answer.
