I’ve seen it too many times. A team struggles in the regular season, then catches fire in the playoffs. I would’nt be surprised if Kc leaned on their running game and defense in the playoffs
An offense needs more than just a strong running game---you must have both passing and running working at peak efficiency, along with a stingy defense and special teams, to win championships.
The problem this year that teams are discovering with KC. Limit Kelce and all of sudden KC’s offense feels grounded. These WRs in KC need to develop like yesterday I always have a healthy fear for 15 but idk, odds are against him this year when the AFC is very wide open to new contenders. Baltimore and Miami feel ready to move up the pecking order in the AFC.
@@TheTony024 the difference is Patrick Mahomes. Pat went Jordan mode last playoffs and every year since he’s entered the league, he’s one of those guys that plays better the bigger the stage. Some guys got it some don’t… & if you pick Lamar or Tua over Pat in the playoffs then you a 🤡 Pat has already earned the right to have the faith that he’ll get the job done in the playoffs 😂 3 Super Bowl appearances in 4 years & 2 rings out of the 3 appearances (not to mention why they call it the “Arrowhead Invitational” hosting 5 straight AFC championships). I’m not calling Pat the goat by any means because Brady is the goat and I respect the greatness he had throughout a 20+ year career but even he didn’t host 5 Straight throughout his career…
He didn't play in a playoff game with DeMarcus Robinson. That was Tyler Huntley because Lamar didn't want to risk worsening his injury before signing his new contract. They would have beaten the Bengals last year if he played.

They're getting Justyn Ross back so if they were smart they'd start him asap and give him the same opportunity and approach they've finally given Rashee Rice. Those 2 could become one of the best WR duos on football especially considering who the QB is

Yes JuJu was an impact along with Kelsie. We have no wide receivers. Sitting here watching the Chiefs vs Buffalo game and these receivers are embarrassing. I truly believe MVS is running the wrong routes just so he doesn’t get the ball thrown to him.
Difference between that Pats team and this KC team, KC defense isn't allowing only 3 points in the Super Bowl to either Philly, Dallas or SF. That was a defensive masterpiece by Bill against a high powered offense of the Rams.
The Baltimore Ravens haven't beat The Miami Dolphins aince 2019. Since then theyve played in two head to head match-ups and the Miami Dolphins have won both.
The drops are a major problem, but let’s be real Patrick himself has not been playing at a MVP level this season he’s playing at a really good level but not his level.
@@LucasSChiefsLightningso what was the point of this comment just to reiterate what I’ve already said that he’s not playing at an MVP level but a great level
The fact that people put all the blame on the receivers is crazy. The offense in general is bad. Kelce can’t create big plays and isn’t “always open” like he used to be. Double teams weren’t enough to stop this man and right now he is fully taken out of games with two people on him. The running game isn’t consistent. Although Pacheco can create big plays and runs through people sometimes, if he ain’t doing that, he ain’t doing anything. The o-line is clearly not the same with Orlando gone. You did lose an all-pro level left-tackle, which is the most important position in the entire o-line so that shows a bit. And Pat Mahomes is not consistently great right now. He has played 2 great games this entire year and those were against the Chargers and the Bears, 2 really bad teams. He is making dumb mistakes and he is turning the ball over. Normally he did create those big plays that made us overlook some of these bad turnovers but you can’t create them anymore so the turnovers are an issue you can’t pass on anymore. A part of that is on the receivers but it’s also on the QB. And as good as the defense has looked, they have not been good since bye week. They do have injuries that limit that defense a bit but when the offense isn’t producing like it has been the last 5 years, flaws in your defense will get exposed. This team is fully benefiting from the fact that their division is terrible right now. If they had the schedule of the Bills, Dolphins or the Bengals this year, playing in either the AFC East or AFC North, they would be a wildcard team struggling to make the playoffs.
Chiefs can make the finals, they only gotta worry about the ravens and those guys are chokers no matter how good they are doing rn, bengals and bills are out the picture which made it easier for the chiefs
Actually, It's partly on Mahomes. I watched those games, and Mahomes has gotten greedy. Instead of him taking the first down, he wants to throw deep to an in-completion. Go back and watch the Eagles game. Kelce is wide open in the flat for a 1st down to extent the drive and Mahomes wants to push the ball downfield.
Look at all this national coverage of Mahomes WR dropping passes. I wonder where it was last season for Aaron Rodgers when his WR had the second most dropped passes in the league. Oh no, then it was "It doesn't matter who a QB throws to, if they're good they'll find a way to win" and "It's still Rodgers fault for not building chemistry with his WR." BTW at this same time last the Packers had 31 dropped passes to this year KC has 25. Rodgers got no mercy for dropped passes, so Mahomes shouldn't get any either. Figure it out Patty, go play catch at the park with your WRs! (Yes a couple of national sport media idiots said this about Rodgers several times last season, Cowheard and Florio).
Stephen A, sometimes you irritate me, brother. But your analysis of the current pathetic corp of Chiefs receivers is spot on. And your bluster is most appropriate and to the point for the shameful inability of Chiefs WR's to catch passes that haven't been that difficult to corral.
Chris Canty tripping. The patriots in 2018 only had the Chiefs, Rams and Saints in their way. The Chiefs have the Ravens, Miami, Jaguars, Eagles, Niners, Cowboys, Lions. The competition is much better this year than that year
A Nick Wright shoutout on First Take? I see you Canty! I need to see the Chiefs lose in the playoffs before I actually believe they can't compete for a Superbowl. As long as they got Mahomeboy, Pacheco, and Kelce, there's always a chance
Man the excuses never stop for Mahomes what a joke. R Clark says Kelce leads all TEs in every stat but says we’re are the big plays. Chris Canty spitting facts! It’s weird never saw these topics when Brady was carrying trash WR cores
Agree that KC cannot win this yr. they won't even making thru the playoffs. They just lost their star RB...Mahomes is a great player...BUT not a team! A team needs an OL, a defense and most, receivers who can catch! No catches is a COACHING problem. Make the players practice until they can catch. Bench them if they can't catch or take it seriously! FIND players elsewhere to bring in who can catch!
Ugh !!! 🤦♂️🤦♂️ I keep saying it is Matt Nagy again it's Matt nagy Matt Nagy need to go period yea we was the number # 1 offense in 2017 while Matt Nagy was the offense coordinator but we had tyreek hill he's not here nomre then he went to the bears and got fire Matt Nagy its not a good offense coordinator he messed up Trubisky career got Patrick Mahomes looking like a average quarterback he's no good .

Without Bolton, teams will exploit the running back and tight ends so I agree
