@Gold Tau I laughed at that part. Improved their previously good (bit injured) O-Line by picking up "maulers" then says they're 2nd and 6th round rookies?
@@elproducto9267 And so this guy they drafted is a stud before playing a single game just because he was drafted in the same round as Brady? Even though most 6th round draft picks aren't immediate starters, including Brady?
Alex Gibbs - the God Father of Zone run - passed away last month. He said and wrote many times that, as a coach, you simply don't have the time needed to coach both zone and man blocking. However, after 25+ years of his scheme taking over football at all levels, professional linemen enter the league having learned his system since childhood in Pop Warner and High School. This allows teams to teach both concepts and implement them as needed.
I don't mind zone teams mixing in a little power gap. I think zone teams can sprinkle in power gap a little easier that power gap teams can sprinkle in zone effectively. But ultimately Alex Gibbs was no dummy when it comes to o-line play. You have to hang your hat on one or the other. I'd rather do one thing well than two things poorly.
@@TylerDurden9LB - I agree. I coach amateur adults, and we are pure zone. We don't have time to mess with various gaps and pulls and traps and bucket steps and so forth. We practice zone steps left and right, closing elevator doors, communication (go go go!!! When you take over your block), zero counting the box to identify your man and so forth. However, at the professional level, you can see the value in having both. As true as it is to say "Do one thing well rather than two things poorly", if they know how to stop your zone scheme with that 6-1 front and the 4i technique in this video, then you will do nothing well and be sent home with an L until you show that you can adapt. We had a game in December 2017 where we took an early 21-0 lead and then the opposing team began to really adjust and get their act together. They gave us Bear fronts and didn't allow us to get our double teams. Thankfully, a couple of our guys played in a power scheme in high school and they were able to help me teach our guys on the fly the basic idea of down blocking and pulling a trapping guard to open a hole. We essentially told our guys to zone block left and the left guard to pull and hit the backside defender we normally leave unblocked. We told the HB to run it like a counter - take the hand off, then bend back and run behind your guard. It was improvised and looked it, but the defense wasn't ready and we burnt them for another score on the first try while they were over playing the zone left. Mixing that in a practicing it a little was good for us.
Great points Paul! I've certainly viewed that clinic many times, the game was just different back then. Think we are seeing the development of football and how far it has come manifest itself especially at the QB position
I'll never get tired of you predicting and explaining these things. I'll definetly try to spot this concept in the Chiefs offense next season. Mahomes will always be great but if they can make defenses also fear their running game it'll be next level hard to stop them.
Thanks man! They'll definitely use it often, there was a clip from camp a few days ago where they were running it. Look for Orlando brown to pull a ton without a doubt
That's a packer sweep or riggins counter tray. I don't know squat about football and I recognize that ancient play. It's in that movie where chuck Heston plays a little boys football coach in black and white. That one play made joe theisman a Superbowl winner. If you can run this play, throwing becomes a practice drill.
Well no. Those are the two guards one on either side of the center pulling out. This can be exploited in the NFL now days more easily since nose tackles are quicker than ever filling the vacated space of the play side guard. Or linebackers filling holes catching rbs in the backfield. The advantage of bringing both guys from the back is that the 3 play side lineman have much much easier blocks.
@@45heisman that's a counter tray. I have no idea what that word means in football. But it's a packer sweep. Those guys go that way. That's what I can see. I was in the marching band. I don't really know know football. I know enough football to recognize that play. That's the run version of a look in and go. You get a seal here. And seal here. And you run in the alley. It's the play that Andy Reid used to end Michael Vicks career. Night game vs the cowboys. They hit him so hard he is still punch drunk. No quarterback should run in the alley. Come to think of it, he ran that on the goal line with Donovan McNabb at the Panthers and they late him into retirement. And both times they were up 30 in the fourth quarter. Hope he doesn't do that with mahomes. I'm originally from Virginia. The Hogs with the diesel won a Superbowl running that play. My highschool had the third leading rusher in the state who played in the second half twice a year when the games were close. Then his little brother ran it to the top five rusher. I also know if I recognize a play, you must believe you have better athletes than the other team to execute because if I see it coming, everybody who knows football sees it coming. Look in, go, look in and go.
1. Ravens take care of their own. OBJ is a Ravens legacy player. He wanted to play LT like his father. No way was he ever beating out Staley. So the Ravens sent him to a team where his success is virtually assured. 2. Sending OBJ to the ONLY team that can stop you is risky. But OBJ at LT is someones the Ravens can exploit. He can't handle Oweh's or Houston's speed. This is actually kinda Trojan Horse like.
I'm a fan of Reid in that he's not afraid of giving quarterbacks more latitude to use all their intuitive talent. But he can also waste team talent. KC has the best offensive talent since the St. Louis Rams greatest show on turf. Their play calling spurts more then it should. He been to three Superbowls and won one. Impressive but not stellar.
8:58 Having Mahomes run more G/T-Counter may increase the injury chances for Mahomes as he may be called to keep the ball and run more often. It would be a shame to see Mahomes suffer a devastating injury as did RGIII.
The more he runs the more risk of having that leg fold up Underneath Him. Doesn't matter how good your build is when another 250 lb man is falling on your leg. Just saying. Keep running him and he is going to get hurt no.
@@YouGotHousesWeGotMahomes haha I don’t but I’m happy for all you Chiefs fans getting to enjoy football the past few years. GL this year and have a great day, dude!
@@AlexRollinsNFL should have made a video about the superpower the chiefs were gifted by not being called for penalties but compare that to the following year when they were called and failed miserably.
The chiefs problem was their O line, they only had 1 o linemen they played in his spot in the super bowl that he played at the first game of the season.
yes, kc in both SB's had Mahomes running all over the place. That shouldn't happen again if they stay healthy and make it there again. They also improved there defense some.
Not really, while yes it was a problem, it could have been remedied. If you notice they ran scat protection literally the whole game. The issue was that Andy Reid stayed very static that whole game. You can't run scat, no matter what team, against that front 4 of Tampa. Mahomes didn't need much, one or two seconds of time would have sufficed, but they never switched off scat.
He says we had a problem in the run game. And we do. And our patchwork o line failed miserably in the super bowl. But if you watched. When the bucs went into their cover 2 shell in the second half. We hit 2 straight runs for 42 yards to open the second half. The problem was Andy went back to the passing game right after which is what the cover 2 shell is built to prevent. If we wouldve kept up the ground attack it would've opened up opportunities in the passing game. But right after those 2 big runs. We immediately started throwing the ball and had to settle for a 52 yard field goal. Then the bucs drove right down and scored on the ensuing drive putting us down 28-9. Which forced the play calling to go pass heavy which is where Tampa's defense thrives. The o line was a MAJOR problem and has been for most of my time as a life long chiefs fan. But play calling had a lot to do with us getting away from the running game in the second half as I believe that was the adjustment. But because our defense can't stop a brown paper sack.. we got run out of the building cuz we couldn't throw the ball against a defense that is built to stop the pass in Tampa Bay
Im glad they beefed up their offensive line but in terms of the rest of their offense they need A REAL running game threat Mecole Hardman needs to step up, Kelce and Hill cant be the entire offense, defenses know to game plan for those two because they know Hardman and the running game wont beat them Better Red Zone production
Thanks Anthony! I think a lot of teams will use it too, certainly not just the Chiefs. Defeating the Tite front is undoubtedly being talked about in every coaching room league wide
They don't really need to change anything. They need to keep Pat healthy. He didn't look it in the SB. They had to reidentify players who can run and pass block. Be more balanced offensively.
My top 3 teams outside the Cheifs: Rams Titans And until you knock em off you gotta say the defending champs (Tampa). Only concern is we just assume Brady is gonna do what he does forever because he's still a top 10 QB after all this time and is GOAT tier, but the fall off usually comes fast and hard for an NFL QB #AlexRollinsPlaybook
People have been waiting for Brady to decline for the past 10 years. Reports from camp are that he is throwing the ball better than ever, so good luck with that.
Despite adding Stafford, I expect regression from the Rams. They just lost their starting running back to injury, they lost some solid defensive players, and they also lost their defensive coordinator. The 49ers should improve after an injury plagued year, and the Cardinals should be better, too. As for the Titans, I can’t believe in them until they show everyone that their defense has improved. Adding Julio Jones won’t increase their win total unless they can actually stop teams from scoring on them.
@@johnbrowntheprophet Good points. But I doubt losing Cam Akers and a couple guys like Johnson will offset the vast improvement that should come from trading Goff. I mean it could but I think they're good for double-digit wins again. 2 people seem to forget the Titans were 3rd in defense the year before when they went to the Championship game. They've improved the roster on defense if not by much, it's enough. Cause ain't nobody stopping Henry, Brown, AND Julio. Plus Tannehill is probably gonna be even better than last year. I like the Ravens too but the fact they didn't go and get Julio showed me they're not ready to win
@@EZR725 - The Ravens didn’t have the cap space to absorb Julio’s contract. Besides, he was hurt for half of last season. He’s 32 now and not as productive as he was during his prime. Personally, I feel like his acquisition was overrated. The Titans lost two solid players in Corey Davis and Jonnu Smith, so adding Julio is really just a zero sum gain.
"from the Super Bowl where the Chiefs starting line was mostly injured."--Actually their ENTIRE offensive line were backups. Mahomes was the most pressured QB in SB history.
@@wesleyjamesdurant89 Umm, yes. The 29/53 (52%) pressures against Mahomes set a new Super Bowl record. Brady was pressured 20 of his 43 (46%) against the Giants.
Well when the offense can't hold like the previous superbowl because they had decent refs compared to letting the ref who allowed the rams corner to destroy the saints receiver in the playoff game the year before to ref the sb... I can guess why.
Nah he is a vegan and has his diet that extended his career he needed to be able to avoid injures that are career ending he still got hit this year since he does not run
The Chiefs offensive struggles early on this season and Mahomes inability to adjust has suggested the Chiefs O line overhaul was unsuccessful, however it couldn't be further from the truth. Firstly, their GCG combination has been the BEST in the NFL through 10 weeks. 2nd round pick Creed Humphrey is playing like the best center in the league and has the highest PFF grade of any center EVER. 6th round pick Trey Smith is not quite as consistent but he's still incredibly good, and is as powerful as any guard in the league. He has one or two highlight blocks a week, and is playing at an All-Pro level as well. And although in my opinion Joe Thuney is not worth the money they're paying him he's exactly as good as they thought he'd be. Technically sound veteran that is super consistent, All-Pro. Secondly, Orlando Brown Jr. is a good player but his skillset is vastly different than what they've had in an underweight super-athletic Eric Fisher. Brown almost never loses inside and rushers have all but given up trying to bull rush the mammoth, however he's susceptible to getting beat by speed to the outside. He's not as fleet of foot sideline to sideline as Fisher, and the Chiefs/Mahomes have struggled to adjust to maximize his skillset. Mahomes routinely overdrops to a depth of 9-10 yards making the rushing angles easier for speed rushers on the edge, and many times he looks to scramble outside instead of stepping up into a clean pocket and helping Brown regain that angle. It's caused some pressure on Mahomes from time-to-time and to the untrained eye it looks like Brown is getting beat, which is usually not the case. Furthermore the Chiefs call too many zone schemes requiring him to ride a defender(s) laterally and although he's OK at that he is an ELITE man-on-man power run blocker. Then we have RT which has been Remmers/Niang/Wylie. They all have their strengths/weaknesses, however they are all sub-par RT at this point in their careers. Remmers is a veteran who will lose less often but is susceptible to being bull-rushed, Niang is a road grader but once again struggles with speed and lateral agility, and Wylie is below average in all areas. So you've got: LT - Good LG - Great C - Elite RG - Great RT - Below average Additionally because of the attrition the Chiefs faced down the stretch last year you have depth behind each of these positions who have all played significant minutes in significant games. The depth is phenomenal, and it should be for as much attention Veach has put on the O line.
My top 5 teams (yea Ik you said 3 but I couldn’t help myself) that can beat the chiefs in the Super Bowl: 1) Bucs, pretty obvious why… they’ve already done it and it’s the same team with the same players and coach’s. They have a good shot at being a repeat winner. 2) Bills, and josh Allen is why. Allen was incredible last year, him and Diggs are one of the scariest offensive duos in the league and along with a solid offense around him (run game could be better) I have no doubts that offense could score score enough points to win. However their defense is the question, last year the Bills defense was underwhelming after being a top 5 unit in 2019. I think if that defense steps it up and looks like the 2019 defense with top 5 Safety and ILB cores along with Tre White, all they need is the DL to step in and preform. If the defense takes It up a notch they can dethrone the chiefs in the AFC. 3) Ravens, it’s can be lamars turn. After having a Stellar team offensively and defensively thier lack of post season success is disheartening. The new WR core, prospective RB and ILB, refreshed OL with Stanley returning, hopefully good edge play but Oweh and Houston along with the best CB tandem they don’t have many faults. This offense will be top 5 again, with Lamar at the helm there’s no questions about it, but on paper the defense is less than opposing aside from the CBs, Queen, and Campbell, but Martindale always finds a way to make this squad elite so with a great team and a few post season visits the ravens have a legit shot at a third ring. 4) Rams, McvVay and Stafford. McVay knows offense, Stafford is a freakishly talented QB, these two could really stir up the game like Reid and Mahomes or Rodgers and LaFleur last season. The Rams have a solid offense, not many exceptional players along with the loss of Akers should only keep the offense average, and it was with Goff but Stafford is special. Although the last of any post season history by Stafford is non ideal I think it’s fine with McVay and Rams making a SB appearance. Plus we can expect the defense to play at a high level, you don’t have Jalen Ramsey and AD and not have a great defense. Although imo the defense will take a step back with Staley and John Johnson moving on from the Rams but like the ravens, they should be elite or great on both sides of the ball game and could win the SB. 5) Here’s my wildcard, Steelers. You don’t have the best defense in football and a HOF QB and not make my list. The Steelers defense reminds me of the last 6 times they’ve won a Super Bowl, HOF qb with a defense that should scare any team. Imo it’s non arguable that the Steelers have the best DL in football, Heyward, Tuitt, and TJ probably only need to be the guys rushing the passer to make them #1, but Highsmith with an impressive rookie season, where he’s regarded as the second best rookie pass rusher from last seaos behind Young is promising for this already elite DL. With the addition of Schobert, thé ILB core is a top 5 unit, maybe top 3 depending on how busy recovers. And Minkah overhead with Haden at CB there aren’t many holes in this defense and I think the rest of the talent will more than make up for CB2 and SS, rightfully making them the best defense, as all as Butler doesn’t make them choke. Now offensively their are questions so let’s get out they have a great WR core and a very talented rookie RB. The OL has been completed rejuvenated with no starting player returning to the same position. I don’t have much worries for the IOL, Dotson was an all rookie guard and Trai is only two seasons removed from a pro bowl, Green at C has some worry but l focus on the tackles. Banner was supposed to be starting last year but injury kept him away and I don’t think he’s crack top 20 RT but I think he’d be serviceable, LT as Chuks has a lot of worry making me question the OL. But overall I think the unit will be better and I think they’d get better as the season progresses bc of the youth on the OL and a new OL coach who helped groom Dotson gives me optimism for the OL to produce. Now Ben Rothlesberger, the man many dismiss as the 19th best QB. Last year he had top 10 numbers, last year he had the worst run game and 29th best OL, and a moron at OC. He did amazing considering his situation, with a revamped OL, Najee and a new OC, I think Ben is more likely to be better in 2021 than 2020. That’s my top 5. Notable teams not on list: Packers, I don’t trust Rodgers to win NFC championship, not with Rams and Bucs in the convo. Titans, I love the offense, I’ve just don’t see the defense holding up to get them to win the SB. Browns, mainly lack of post season experience, I think they can make a playoff run but I don’t see baker and stefanksi getting a SB bc of the lack of post season history. Chargers, similar stance to browns, great team, herb might win MVP but I don’t like the lack on any post season experience. Hawks, I don’t love their team I think it’s just not good enough to be championship caliber. 49ers I think they’d got a shot, with a recent SB appearance, Kyle shanahan and overall good team they have a lot of things going for them but my issue is QB play, Garapollo had a great 2019 but I have a feeling it’s a one year wonder and if lance becomes the starter mid season I don’t trust a rookie qb to win the SB. #alexrollinsplaybook
Every where Alex Smith went running backs had career years the quarterback play has a lot to do with rb success. The qb chooses to put running back in good running plays and has the option to go from a pass play to run play depending on how the defence plays. Mahomes is good but he wants all the numbers to himself even at the expence of the team.
Defense: We will show over/under fronts and ask linebackers and the weak side safety to shoot gaps. Offense: Okay, we will use your gaps to create double teams and get movement up front with peel blocks to open up lanes. Defense: Okay, then we will show you Bear/Cub fronts to clog the A and B gaps while hanging over the C gaps. We won't let you get a double team. Offense: Okay, then we will use pulls, traps and counters off tackle. ♻️ ♻️ ♻️ ⛰️📜 ✂️
The chiefs brought in some more offensive lineman that's cute that still ain't gonna help them if the meet the bucs again in the superbowl. And here's why Todd Bowles has become the only defensive coordinator to figure Patrick Overrated Mahomes out and if Todd Bowles follows that same gameplan i.e isolating Mahomes with a simple 4 man rush then the bucs are going to repeat as champions because newsflash the only weapon he got is his legs and if all the players on the bucs defense is in coverage and they just rush 4 then Mahomes is a sitting duck and he has nowhere to go. So, I'm pleading with Todd Bowles if this next year's superbowl is a rematch between the bucs and the chiefs please for the sake of humanity follow that same gameplan that won him his first superbowl ring as a coach.
lol...so the great andy reid oversaw a team that was the 2nd worse running team in the league and after losing the SB he has made the brave decision to not throw the ball so much going forward. Wow, that is some genius stuff there.
So true.... One of the best... Nevermind I'll say it, THE BEST THROWER OF THE FOOTBALL THAT HAS EVER BEEN IN THIS LEAGUE, and they take advantage of that and give him just middling receivers, but that could be forgiven if u gave him a solid defense to help support... Idk where the hell they ever spend the salary cap but it's never ever been where they should... Plus Colin cowherd said it best, they have the arrogance of not signing free agents or people they haven't drafted themselves... They suffer from that ego of "we are the smartest and know what's best", that's not just 'draft & develop'. That's stupidity
Packers GM: "Okay Aaron, you have the #1 offense, best WR in the game and top 3 RB. Your defense can pick Brady off 3 times in a championship game" Aaron: "Waaaaaaaaaa MOMMY Waaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
Andy Reid is passing guy, West Coast. He utilize Backs that little, that's why he lost in SB 39 and 55 with Eagles and Chiefs respectively which he didn't use running plays that much
@LTrain45 45 The chiefs got 4 new lineman who literally specialize in these types of runs. Creed Humphrey, Trey Smith, Orlando Brown, and Joe Thuney, he even named them in the video.
@LTrain45 45 I know it’s an eleven man sport, it’s one of the things I preach the most. I’m just pointing out that Clydes’ skill set and the new lineman brought in are suited and already shown to be great on these types of plays.
Watching this video was really interesting. It makes me understand how the Bucs shut down the Chiefs offense a little better,the chiefs releasing those lineman, why they traded for Brown & why their draft was the way it was. This is why I enjoy football so much just when I think I understand everything going on something new pops up that I can learn about. Can’t wait to watch the Chiefs and see how CEH does this year.
Thanks brother! Yes, I'm very excited to watch CEH play especially this year. He's already set up for success in the offense especially with all the light boxes they face, plus he has all the talent in the world
When you so good at analysis, you analyze what's gonna happen rather than what did. I'm not gonna check KC's games to know if this is correct but I will come back to comments in a few months to see if someone else declares that this "aged well".
The cheifs problem was their offense(Brett Kollman did a vid in this). The offense was an explosive home run hitting offense. Usually Aganst single safety coverages. When teams starting blitzing and using double safety coverage the chiefs offense struggled due to their o line and poor short passing game
Throughout the season, blitzing wasnt actually an issue. Mahomes has always performed great under pressure, except for the SB when we didnt have an o line
Teams aren’t gonna drop everyone back with a run game. Teams took advantage of the the Chiefs poor o line and run game. Hence the new o line. Teams won’t be able to run as much cover two. The only team that stopped the Chiefs last year was the Bucs in the SB. They were able to play cover two and stop the run with their two great LBs. The Chiefs problem in offense was their o line
There is also a mindset. They feel in love with the big play and got to the point were they just expected they would come because of who they were. The Bucs were smart in how the played them but also the mind set. they didn't play it safe but didn't go crazy trying to run up the score. They just kept pounding them till it broke on both sides of the ball.
Probably the same place. The only running backs that are truly gamechangers are elite level all round backs. Kareem hunt is just good. Also the Chiefs have enough domestic abusers without him.
This content is next level, Alex. Showing and explaining the detail behind formations reminds me of some other video that pointed out the off-ball movement in Basketball, enabling me to enjoy a game I'd watched for so long on another dimension. Thank you so much.
That's news to me. It was my impression that they were down two starting linemen and picked up Mike Rimmer, a starting SB left tackle for the Panthers. The Bucs played most of the year without one of their starting lineman. They played the NFC Conference Championship against MVP Aaron Rogers without either starting safety, and they played most of the season without their starting nose tackle who suffered a broken ankle in week five against Chicago.
Fantastic content. Leaps and bounds beyond almost anything on ESPN or NFL Network. I love learning about the details of the game and concepts. They never really talk about this on any major network and watching on tv always focuses on the quarterback so we can’t really see the play develop.
Sorry, not as optimistic as you are. Changing schemes is fine, but still comes down to players. That fact a kid is drafted from college who did it, big difference coming to the NFL. Sure, the Chiefs will do well during the season. I just don't see them as being dominate as they have been over the last few seasons.
In that game, the Chiefs had run blockers Osemele and Kilgore playing in the oline, both did not play most of the season. They also had two starting tackles. The video was claiming they know Andy's philosophy failure, even if he went 14-2 , the chiefs scrapping the running game was due to injuries. Alex makes good videos, but he cherry picks stats like a mad man.
@@donarmstrong2182 yup, oline was depleted and when you're playing against suh and vita vea not to mention those lbs you'd better have starters in there..that.cost them the game...
You guys wanted them to run cause the pass was great for them and the run they were below average. it is how Belichick plays them to cause you would rather have them run the ball all day than kill you in the passing game. Honestly the chiefs got caught in the same thing in the super bowl it's just the the tampa D had help from the Tampa O getting them really behind so thing were forced play a bad hand.
They were an off-side penalty away from being in Super Bowl 53,and they were in SB 54 and 55.....I think he's married now but clever play on words....you mad bro?
@@MacMyKitty It's cool,you think Mahomes is overrated....but to be so mad you have to throw in the gay reference,just odd to me.....I can't stand Brady,but he's a good quarterback
I'd believe that the Chiefs are back to back potential Superbowl Champs, or never appear for another 13 years The NFL is wild The Chiefs seemed so similar to the 2011 Packers.
I'll be real interested to see what happens to Mahomes when Kelce and Hill aren't playing anymore. Mahomes is great, but he certainly has a lot of support around him
@@AlexRollinsNFL I hope Andy take notes what went wrong with Rodgers under McCarthy. All the talent in the world on offenses for years, but that defense become more and more barren. I think Andy is smarter than that, getting humiliated like that will do wonders for a QB who is so young, I'm curious as well who will be his new go to guys when they are gone
I love my Chiefs but I don't feel they did enough to win another Super Bowl. They continue to ignore our shitty defense, they are unreliable and blow coverage all the time, Tampa Bay got anything they wanted against our pathetic secondary except for Honey Badger and Sorensen
Kc doesnt have to have a elite defense to win the ship. They had average defenses that turned the pressure up in the postseason. They def have enough, pass rush will be better with reed taking pressure off cj and clark, willie gay back healthy and bolton at linebacker will help us improve that unit. Run defense overall should be improved and sneed will only get better and thornhill will be fully 100% next year. Trust the defense is not in bad shape at all, they have the potential to be better than last year
They built the D they wanted one that's good at getting people off the field on 3 and long. But it's really bad a stopping RB and TE. The biggest issue might be in division with the chargers that IF they got the right coach have the QB and time to figure out what they suck at doing.
Andy Reid had these same exact problems in Philly. What will happen now is in about 3-4 years, the fans will be sick of the Andy Reid show and he'll either retire or move somewhere else.
Andy will retire as the chiefs headcoach. But I do love all of you guys that quote tradition of the past as the way it will always be. Mahomes has broken so many traditions in his short career, that I love watching them fall.
@@rustyreese4006 Has he really though? Has he broken more "traditions" than Russel Wilson? IMHO, his career is almost a perfect parallel to Wilson. I heard a great quote from Pat Kirwan years ago that went something like this "Every player is at their fastest the day they start in the NFL, and they get a little slower each season. But the defenses are always getting faster every year". Russel Wilson pretty much demonstrates that unfortunate fact.
@@teekay_1 he has from my perspective. Keep in mind that KC hadn't had a playoff win for over twenty years, while being in the playoffs a lot. Mahomes also lead a come back from 24 points in the playoffs, also very rare. Also the comeback wins down by 10 or more points. Pretty much he took a team that had been drowning in mediocrity for 50 years, and turned it into a powerhouse. Wilson did the same thing for two years, but it went off the rails afterwards. KC may have the same problem, but it's not looking that way because of the talent they have been able to keep. Only time will tell, and I'm sure enjoying my teams rise out of mediocrity, so most of the traditions are team traditions. Just don't hate on me for being a homer. It's true, but I was also there in the eighties when they were just trash.
Hahahahahahhah. As soon as PFF tried selling that nonsense I knew they were a joke. You notice, they go out of their way not to mention rushing now? It's hilarious.
Another fire video from the goat 💪. Ngl, as a Bills fan, I’m not sure we did enough this off season to be able to compete with/get past KC this year. That team is the real deal.
Idk man, the bills have one of most complete rosters in the league, if anyone has a chance at kc besides the BUCS they do... just wonder how long they can keep those guys together because they're loaded...
Haha thanks JT! I agree, you guys had a fairly quiet offseason. If anything I'm predicting a bit of a drop off from Allen, tough for him to repeat a blow up year like that. Still love the Bills though!
Bills badly need a RB & decent TE right now they have some of the worst stables at both those positions in the league. Also need to try and move Ed Oliver and see if theres any improvement and really think he's only real chance at succeeding in the league is if he were traded to a team with a 3-4 defense and try him there cause he's been less than starter caliber depite draft hype fooling people and seems to be a tweener without the aggression needed to overcome his physical limitations at the position.
@@IntroducingMrLucci the t.e and rb situations are factors, think they can trade or pick up talent in free agency.? If not they're first three draft picks should go towards those, Oliver although not a game breaker is solid and still young with time to develop
the chiefs have a qb just coming out of his rookie contract. If Mahomes takes a smaller contract they may be able to stretch it a few years, but, that is a big if.
Are you not aware that mahomes contract is designed for contingencies to be restructured to make room for signing other talent? People keep predicting that his contract will force the team to lose so much talent that they will not be able to compete. They already restructured to do what they did this off season because of the pandemic, and it looks like they are coming back better than last season. Maybe the rest of the top QB talent will be more willing to take deals that will make sure they have talent around them instead of deals like Russell Wilson that gutted his team. We'll see.
@@formulah113 I don't blame you one bit. When I saw the contract they offered him I was thinking the same thing. But after it was analyzed I thought it was a brilliant move for the team and Patrick.
Like brian flores showed everyone how to beat the rams ( and got a HC job because of it) fangio showed teams how to stop the chiefs O and if you think todd bolwes ( the best assistant coach who should be a HC) would miss it and not expose it you dont know whats coming. Andy reid is a fantastic coach but if he couldnt see this being an issue before the big game instead of the offseason he is slipping.
He means the Chiefs need to learn to run the ball and start playing smarter like they did against Buffalo, Pat Mahomes drops too deep in the pocket on every pass average like 10-12 yards and he screws over his o-line forcing so many negative plays, then has to rely on more deep balls to bail them out. That’s why the Bucs played 2 high against the chiefs 89% of the time, because Andy Reid and Mahomes refused to punish them underneath and keep just mindlessly throwing deep which will not work when the secondary is selling out to start deep and has a DB like SMB who is just as fast and polished as all your receivers. The chiefs may hit a lot of home runs but they strike out just enough to lose games that actually matter. This is a simplified summary of what goin on
He's saying Chiefs are going to tweak their run game so their passing offense can get back to being not only dangerous but efficient. You can't have a championship team based off of home run hits alone. The running game will open up their short passing and red zone offense if the tweaks work.
@@dkoda840 Mahomes drops so far in the pocket because he’s had a below average interior o line since he’s started. When you have a bad iol, it’s not wise to stay in the pocket. Brady looked washed in 2019 with a similar situation. Mahomes may look like a different QB.
@@jamesfagan5694 Mahomes has ALWAYS dropped so far in the pocket, yes his line is below average but guess what dropping 12 yards deep only makes your below average o-line even worse. It gives ends an easy angles to blow you up, and guess what it kept happening and largely why Pat went from one of the harder QBs to sack in 2019-2020 to middle of the pack in 2020-2021. The angles he gives edge rushers is nearly a straight line, no offensive lineman even has a change in that situation. Speaking from personal experience. Mahomes is more comfortable further away from the line sure, so Andy Reid needs to retool his play calling to have this sort of situation come up less and less, or else he and the Chiefs will be threw.

@@ron10dk yeah… 6th round. Like… the round Tom Brady was picked in.

Alex Gibbs - the God Father of Zone run - passed away last month. He said and wrote many times that, as a coach, you simply don't have the time needed to coach both zone and man blocking. However, after 25+ years of his scheme taking over football at all levels, professional linemen enter the league having learned his system since childhood in Pop Warner and High School.
This allows teams to teach both concepts and implement them as needed.
I don't mind zone teams mixing in a little power gap. I think zone teams can sprinkle in power gap a little easier that power gap teams can sprinkle in zone effectively. But ultimately Alex Gibbs was no dummy when it comes to o-line play. You have to hang your hat on one or the other. I'd rather do one thing well than two things poorly.
Thank you for that, love this game. Rest his soul as well.
@@TylerDurden9LB - I agree. I coach amateur adults, and we are pure zone. We don't have time to mess with various gaps and pulls and traps and bucket steps and so forth. We practice zone steps left and right, closing elevator doors, communication (go go go!!! When you take over your block), zero counting the box to identify your man and so forth.
However, at the professional level, you can see the value in having both.
As true as it is to say "Do one thing well rather than two things poorly", if they know how to stop your zone scheme with that 6-1 front and the 4i technique in this video, then you will do nothing well and be sent home with an L until you show that you can adapt.
We had a game in December 2017 where we took an early 21-0 lead and then the opposing team began to really adjust and get their act together. They gave us Bear fronts and didn't allow us to get our double teams. Thankfully, a couple of our guys played in a power scheme in high school and they were able to help me teach our guys on the fly the basic idea of down blocking and pulling a trapping guard to open a hole. We essentially told our guys to zone block left and the left guard to pull and hit the backside defender we normally leave unblocked. We told the HB to run it like a counter - take the hand off, then bend back and run behind your guard. It was improvised and looked it, but the defense wasn't ready and we burnt them for another score on the first try while they were over playing the zone left.
Mixing that in a practicing it a little was good for us.
Great points Paul! I've certainly viewed that clinic many times, the game was just different back then. Think we are seeing the development of football and how far it has come manifest itself especially at the QB position
I'll never get tired of you predicting and explaining these things. I'll definetly try to spot this concept in the Chiefs offense next season. Mahomes will always be great but if they can make defenses also fear their running game it'll be next level hard to stop them.
Thanks man! They'll definitely use it often, there was a clip from camp a few days ago where they were running it. Look for Orlando brown to pull a ton without a doubt
That's a packer sweep or riggins counter tray. I don't know squat about football and I recognize that ancient play. It's in that movie where chuck Heston plays a little boys football coach in black and white. That one play made joe theisman a Superbowl winner. If you can run this play, throwing becomes a practice drill.
Well no. Those are the two guards one on either side of the center pulling out. This can be exploited in the NFL now days more easily since nose tackles are quicker than ever filling the vacated space of the play side guard. Or linebackers filling holes catching rbs in the backfield. The advantage of bringing both guys from the back is that the 3 play side lineman have much much easier blocks.
@@45heisman that's a counter tray. I have no idea what that word means in football. But it's a packer sweep. Those guys go that way. That's what I can see.
I was in the marching band. I don't really know know football. I know enough football to recognize that play. That's the run version of a look in and go.
You get a seal here. And seal here. And you run in the alley.
It's the play that Andy Reid used to end Michael Vicks career. Night game vs the cowboys. They hit him so hard he is still punch drunk. No quarterback should run in the alley. Come to think of it, he ran that on the goal line with Donovan McNabb at the Panthers and they late him into retirement. And both times they were up 30 in the fourth quarter. Hope he doesn't do that with mahomes. I'm originally from Virginia. The Hogs with the diesel won a Superbowl running that play. My highschool had the third leading rusher in the state who played in the second half twice a year when the games were close. Then his little brother ran it to the top five rusher.
I also know if I recognize a play, you must believe you have better athletes than the other team to execute because if I see it coming, everybody who knows football sees it coming. Look in, go, look in and go.
I was fine with my ravens letting Orlando brown get traded but sending him to the chiefs was a huge fuck up
1. Ravens take care of their own. OBJ is a Ravens legacy player. He wanted to play LT like his father. No way was he ever beating out Staley. So the Ravens sent him to a team where his success is virtually assured.
2. Sending OBJ to the ONLY team that can stop you is risky. But OBJ at LT is someones the Ravens can exploit. He can't handle Oweh's or Houston's speed. This is actually kinda Trojan Horse like.
I'm a fan of Reid in that he's not afraid of giving quarterbacks more latitude to use all their intuitive talent. But he can also waste team talent. KC has the best offensive talent since the St. Louis Rams greatest show on turf. Their play calling spurts more then it should. He been to three Superbowls and won one. Impressive but not stellar.
I mean like winning one super bowl is really good to be fair
8:58 Having Mahomes run more G/T-Counter may increase the injury chances for Mahomes as he may be called to keep the ball and run more often. It would be a shame to see Mahomes suffer a devastating injury as did RGIII.
He seems sturdier and more durable than RG3
RGIII isn't like Mahomes.
But unlike RG3 mahomes can throw from the pocket. RG3 was great when he used legs like Lamar.
The more he runs the more risk of having that leg fold up Underneath Him. Doesn't matter how good your build is when another 250 lb man is falling on your leg. Just saying. Keep running him and he is going to get hurt no.
@@robk5437 exactly you never know with football, if the next sack/tackle gives a qb a dak or alex smith injury.

Couldn’t care less about the Chiefs as a team but this was an impeccable episode despite my bias. :D You a real one, Alex! Keep it up!!
Sounds like you really do care about the Chiefs.
@@YouGotHousesWeGotMahomes haha I don’t but I’m happy for all you Chiefs fans getting to enjoy football the past few years. GL this year and have a great day, dude!
Thanks brother! Glad you still enjoyed it, who's your team?
@@AlexRollinsNFL should have made a video about the superpower the chiefs were gifted by not being called for penalties but compare that to the following year when they were called and failed miserably.
U better start caring cause we finna kick everybody ass
That's Joe Gibbs counter gap play!
The chiefs problem was their O line, they only had 1 o linemen they played in his spot in the super bowl that he played at the first game of the season.
yes, kc in both SB's had Mahomes running all over the place. That shouldn't happen again if they stay healthy and make it there again. They also improved there defense some.
Not really, while yes it was a problem, it could have been remedied. If you notice they ran scat protection literally the whole game. The issue was that Andy Reid stayed very static that whole game. You can't run scat, no matter what team, against that front 4 of Tampa. Mahomes didn't need much, one or two seconds of time would have sufficed, but they never switched off scat.
Chiefs did nothing to help their oline knowing it was damaged
He says we had a problem in the run game. And we do. And our patchwork o line failed miserably in the super bowl. But if you watched. When the bucs went into their cover 2 shell in the second half. We hit 2 straight runs for 42 yards to open the second half. The problem was Andy went back to the passing game right after which is what the cover 2 shell is built to prevent. If we wouldve kept up the ground attack it would've opened up opportunities in the passing game. But right after those 2 big runs. We immediately started throwing the ball and had to settle for a 52 yard field goal. Then the bucs drove right down and scored on the ensuing drive putting us down 28-9. Which forced the play calling to go pass heavy which is where Tampa's defense thrives. The o line was a MAJOR problem and has been for most of my time as a life long chiefs fan. But play calling had a lot to do with us getting away from the running game in the second half as I believe that was the adjustment. But because our defense can't stop a brown paper sack.. we got run out of the building cuz we couldn't throw the ball against a defense that is built to stop the pass in Tampa Bay
Great video Alex!! You explained everything very well. Keep up the great work
Thanks brother! Appreciate the love every week GS
true
Another great breakdown by Alex ‼️
Thanks my man!!
Im glad they beefed up their offensive line but in terms of the rest of their offense they need
A REAL running game threat
Mecole Hardman needs to step up, Kelce and Hill cant be the entire offense, defenses know to game plan for those two because they know Hardman and the running game wont beat them
Better Red Zone production
Good video, I’ll look for this in 2021
Thanks Anthony! I think a lot of teams will use it too, certainly not just the Chiefs. Defeating the Tite front is undoubtedly being talked about in every coaching room league wide
chiefs need to play less shotgun and run more from run friendly formations
They don't really need to change anything. They need to keep Pat healthy. He didn't look it in the SB. They had to reidentify players who can run and pass block. Be more balanced offensively.
Excellent video.
Thank you brother!
That gt counter is nasty.
yes make sense they need push more middle field more and cute ready they do and plus see of flied the qb15 is everthing keep up great work!
I'm so excited to see them play no matter what! So fun to watch😊
Still excited?
This is on point!
Thanks brother!
clyde edwards-helaire could the next lesean mccoy this year
Go Chiefs
My top 3 teams outside the Cheifs:
Rams
Titans
And until you knock em off you gotta say the defending champs (Tampa). Only concern is we just assume Brady is gonna do what he does forever because he's still a top 10 QB after all this time and is GOAT tier, but the fall off usually comes fast and hard for an NFL QB
#AlexRollinsPlaybook
People have been waiting for Brady to decline for the past 10 years. Reports from camp are that he is throwing the ball better than ever, so good luck with that.
Despite adding Stafford, I expect regression from the Rams. They just lost their starting running back to injury, they lost some solid defensive players, and they also lost their defensive coordinator. The 49ers should improve after an injury plagued year, and the Cardinals should be better, too. As for the Titans, I can’t believe in them until they show everyone that their defense has improved. Adding Julio Jones won’t increase their win total unless they can actually stop teams from scoring on them.
@@Max-kr2nl Ok? What does that have to do with my comment?
@@johnbrowntheprophet Good points. But I doubt losing Cam Akers and a couple guys like Johnson will offset the vast improvement that should come from trading Goff. I mean it could but I think they're good for double-digit wins again. 2 people seem to forget the Titans were 3rd in defense the year before when they went to the Championship game. They've improved the roster on defense if not by much, it's enough. Cause ain't nobody stopping Henry, Brown, AND Julio. Plus Tannehill is probably gonna be even better than last year. I like the Ravens too but the fact they didn't go and get Julio showed me they're not ready to win
@@EZR725 - The Ravens didn’t have the cap space to absorb Julio’s contract. Besides, he was hurt for half of last season. He’s 32 now and not as productive as he was during his prime. Personally, I feel like his acquisition was overrated. The Titans lost two solid players in Corey Davis and Jonnu Smith, so adding Julio is really just a zero sum gain.
"from the Super Bowl where the Chiefs starting line was mostly injured."--Actually their ENTIRE offensive line were backups. Mahomes was the most pressured QB in SB history.
Ummm TB12 against Giants??
@@wesleyjamesdurant89 Umm, yes. The 29/53 (52%) pressures against Mahomes set a new Super Bowl record. Brady was pressured 20 of his 43 (46%) against the Giants.
Well when the offense can't hold like the previous superbowl because they had decent refs compared to letting the ref who allowed the rams corner to destroy the saints receiver in the playoff game the year before to ref the sb... I can guess why.
Hasn't andy reid always had a below avg run game even in philly right
No, moreso just how often he uses them. They're efficient, he just doesn't always use them much so their volume stats are a little lower
Any NFL QB who runs is going to get hurt! It happens everytime but they keep trying it! As Tom Brady sits in the pocket and drills passes at age 43!
Nah he is a vegan and has his diet that extended his career he needed to be able to avoid injures that are career ending he still got hit this year since he does not run
mobile qb Do last lamar jackson has lasted and so has micheal vick he had a long career even With injures
ruseel wilson has lasted long too no missed games so save the rushing qb dont last cam newton has the record for the most rushing td's for a qb
@@moalston4203 with the exception of Wilson, all of the QBs you mentioned haven't done much beyond league mvp. Not really impressed.
@@rustyreese4006 i am impressed lamar has won a playoff game
How's that workin out🤪
Send this to madden please
it is not as good as last years offence
The Chiefs offensive struggles early on this season and Mahomes inability to adjust has suggested the Chiefs O line overhaul was unsuccessful, however it couldn't be further from the truth.
Firstly, their GCG combination has been the BEST in the NFL through 10 weeks. 2nd round pick Creed Humphrey is playing like the best center in the league and has the highest PFF grade of any center EVER. 6th round pick Trey Smith is not quite as consistent but he's still incredibly good, and is as powerful as any guard in the league. He has one or two highlight blocks a week, and is playing at an All-Pro level as well. And although in my opinion Joe Thuney is not worth the money they're paying him he's exactly as good as they thought he'd be. Technically sound veteran that is super consistent, All-Pro.
Secondly, Orlando Brown Jr. is a good player but his skillset is vastly different than what they've had in an underweight super-athletic Eric Fisher. Brown almost never loses inside and rushers have all but given up trying to bull rush the mammoth, however he's susceptible to getting beat by speed to the outside. He's not as fleet of foot sideline to sideline as Fisher, and the Chiefs/Mahomes have struggled to adjust to maximize his skillset. Mahomes routinely overdrops to a depth of 9-10 yards making the rushing angles easier for speed rushers on the edge, and many times he looks to scramble outside instead of stepping up into a clean pocket and helping Brown regain that angle. It's caused some pressure on Mahomes from time-to-time and to the untrained eye it looks like Brown is getting beat, which is usually not the case. Furthermore the Chiefs call too many zone schemes requiring him to ride a defender(s) laterally and although he's OK at that he is an ELITE man-on-man power run blocker.
Then we have RT which has been Remmers/Niang/Wylie. They all have their strengths/weaknesses, however they are all sub-par RT at this point in their careers. Remmers is a veteran who will lose less often but is susceptible to being bull-rushed, Niang is a road grader but once again struggles with speed and lateral agility, and Wylie is below average in all areas.
So you've got:
LT - Good
LG - Great
C - Elite
RG - Great
RT - Below average
Additionally because of the attrition the Chiefs faced down the stretch last year you have depth behind each of these positions who have all played significant minutes in significant games. The depth is phenomenal, and it should be for as much attention Veach has put on the O line.
As a Chiefs fan.. this was a GREAT FUCKING VIDEO!!!
My top 5 teams (yea Ik you said 3 but I couldn’t help myself) that can beat the chiefs in the Super Bowl:
1) Bucs, pretty obvious why… they’ve already done it and it’s the same team with the same players and coach’s. They have a good shot at being a repeat winner.
2) Bills, and josh Allen is why. Allen was incredible last year, him and Diggs are one of the scariest offensive duos in the league and along with a solid offense around him (run game could be better) I have no doubts that offense could score score enough points to win. However their defense is the question, last year the Bills defense was underwhelming after being a top 5 unit in 2019. I think if that defense steps it up and looks like the 2019 defense with top 5 Safety and ILB cores along with Tre White, all they need is the DL to step in and preform. If the defense takes It up a notch they can dethrone the chiefs in the AFC.
3) Ravens, it’s can be lamars turn. After having a Stellar team offensively and defensively thier lack of post season success is disheartening. The new WR core, prospective RB and ILB, refreshed OL with Stanley returning, hopefully good edge play but Oweh and Houston along with the best CB tandem they don’t have many faults. This offense will be top 5 again, with Lamar at the helm there’s no questions about it, but on paper the defense is less than opposing aside from the CBs, Queen, and Campbell, but Martindale always finds a way to make this squad elite so with a great team and a few post season visits the ravens have a legit shot at a third ring.
4) Rams, McvVay and Stafford. McVay knows offense, Stafford is a freakishly talented QB, these two could really stir up the game like Reid and Mahomes or Rodgers and LaFleur last season. The Rams have a solid offense, not many exceptional players along with the loss of Akers should only keep the offense average, and it was with Goff but Stafford is special. Although the last of any post season history by Stafford is non ideal I think it’s fine with McVay and Rams making a SB appearance. Plus we can expect the defense to play at a high level, you don’t have Jalen Ramsey and AD and not have a great defense. Although imo the defense will take a step back with Staley and John Johnson moving on from the Rams but like the ravens, they should be elite or great on both sides of the ball game and could win the SB.
5) Here’s my wildcard, Steelers. You don’t have the best defense in football and a HOF QB and not make my list. The Steelers defense reminds me of the last 6 times they’ve won a Super Bowl, HOF qb with a defense that should scare any team. Imo it’s non arguable that the Steelers have the best DL in football, Heyward, Tuitt, and TJ probably only need to be the guys rushing the passer to make them #1, but Highsmith with an impressive rookie season, where he’s regarded as the second best rookie pass rusher from last seaos behind Young is promising for this already elite DL. With the addition of Schobert, thé ILB core is a top 5 unit, maybe top 3 depending on how busy recovers. And Minkah overhead with Haden at CB there aren’t many holes in this defense and I think the rest of the talent will more than make up for CB2 and SS, rightfully making them the best defense, as all as Butler doesn’t make them choke. Now offensively their are questions so let’s get out they have a great WR core and a very talented rookie RB. The OL has been completed rejuvenated with no starting player returning to the same position. I don’t have much worries for the IOL, Dotson was an all rookie guard and Trai is only two seasons removed from a pro bowl, Green at C has some worry but l focus on the tackles. Banner was supposed to be starting last year but injury kept him away and I don’t think he’s crack top 20 RT but I think he’d be serviceable, LT as Chuks has a lot of worry making me question the OL. But overall I think the unit will be better and I think they’d get better as the season progresses bc of the youth on the OL and a new OL coach who helped groom Dotson gives me optimism for the OL to produce. Now Ben Rothlesberger, the man many dismiss as the 19th best QB. Last year he had top 10 numbers, last year he had the worst run game and 29th best OL, and a moron at OC. He did amazing considering his situation, with a revamped OL, Najee and a new OC, I think Ben is more likely to be better in 2021 than 2020.
That’s my top 5. Notable teams not on list: Packers, I don’t trust Rodgers to win NFC championship, not with Rams and Bucs in the convo. Titans, I love the offense, I’ve just don’t see the defense holding up to get them to win the SB. Browns, mainly lack of post season experience, I think they can make a playoff run but I don’t see baker and stefanksi getting a SB bc of the lack of post season history. Chargers, similar stance to browns, great team, herb might win MVP but I don’t like the lack on any post season experience. Hawks, I don’t love their team I think it’s just not good enough to be championship caliber. 49ers I think they’d got a shot, with a recent SB appearance, Kyle shanahan and overall good team they have a lot of things going for them but my issue is QB play, Garapollo had a great 2019 but I have a feeling it’s a one year wonder and if lance becomes the starter mid season I don’t trust a rookie qb to win the SB.
#alexrollinsplaybook
Great points, interesting that you don't see the Browns as a possibility, but as you said I can see why. Shoot me a DM on Twitter/ Patreon man!
the chiefs scare me
Same and I’m a Bucs fan
Y'all got the goat y'all will be just fine.
Just get an oline
Every where Alex Smith went running backs had career years the quarterback play has a lot to do with rb success. The qb chooses to put running back in good running plays and has the option to go from a pass play to run play depending on how the defence plays. Mahomes is good but he wants all the numbers to himself even at the expence of the team.
Defense: We will show over/under fronts and ask linebackers and the weak side safety to shoot gaps.
Offense: Okay, we will use your gaps to create double teams and get movement up front with peel blocks to open up lanes.
Defense: Okay, then we will show you Bear/Cub fronts to clog the A and B gaps while hanging over the C gaps. We won't let you get a double team.
Offense: Okay, then we will use pulls, traps and counters off tackle.

Nice man, shoot me a Dm on twitter!
The chiefs brought in some more offensive lineman that's cute that still ain't gonna help them if the meet the bucs again in the superbowl. And here's why Todd Bowles has become the only defensive coordinator to figure Patrick Overrated Mahomes out and if Todd Bowles follows that same gameplan i.e isolating Mahomes with a simple 4 man rush then the bucs are going to repeat as champions because newsflash the only weapon he got is his legs and if all the players on the bucs defense is in coverage and they just rush 4 then Mahomes is a sitting duck and he has nowhere to go. So, I'm pleading with Todd Bowles if this next year's superbowl is a rematch between the bucs and the chiefs please for the sake of humanity follow that same gameplan that won him his first superbowl ring as a coach.
The name “The Big Red Machine” belongs to the mid-to-late 1970s Cincinnati Reds.

Cheifs: "Okay."
Aaron Rodgers: "I want receivers."
Packers: "Heres a quarterback."

lol that cracked me up but its true
So true.... One of the best... Nevermind I'll say it, THE BEST THROWER OF THE FOOTBALL THAT HAS EVER BEEN IN THIS LEAGUE, and they take advantage of that and give him just middling receivers, but that could be forgiven if u gave him a solid defense to help support... Idk where the hell they ever spend the salary cap but it's never ever been where they should... Plus Colin cowherd said it best, they have the arrogance of not signing free agents or people they haven't drafted themselves... They suffer from that ego of "we are the smartest and know what's best", that's not just 'draft & develop'. That's stupidity
Tom Brady: "I will let Aaron whine and Maholmes rebuild, I am busy winning ring #8"
Packers GM: "Okay Aaron, you have the #1 offense, best WR in the game and top 3 RB. Your defense can pick Brady off 3 times in a championship game"
Aaron: "Waaaaaaaaaa MOMMY Waaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
Clyde Edwards dominated in College using counter, power, and luckily, duo on a vertical handoff to get him on track out of shotgun asap.
Andy Reid is passing guy, West Coast. He utilize Backs that little, that's why he lost in SB 39 and 55 with Eagles and Chiefs respectively which he didn't use running plays that much

Watching this video was really interesting. It makes me understand how the Bucs shut down the Chiefs offense a little better,the chiefs releasing those lineman, why they traded for Brown & why their draft was the way it was. This is why I enjoy football so much just when I think I understand everything going on something new pops up that I can learn about. Can’t wait to watch the Chiefs and see how CEH does this year.
Exactly, all my friends think it’s just physical and it’s played by dumb jocks but it’s really a chess match

@@AlexRollinsNFL hell yeah
When you so good at analysis, you analyze what's gonna happen rather than what did. I'm not gonna check KC's games to know if this is correct but I will come back to comments in a few months to see if someone else declares that this "aged well".
Thanks Natasi!!
The cheifs problem was their offense(Brett Kollman did a vid in this). The offense was an explosive home run hitting offense. Usually Aganst single safety coverages. When teams starting blitzing and using double safety coverage the chiefs offense struggled due to their o line and poor short passing game
Throughout the season, blitzing wasnt actually an issue. Mahomes has always performed great under pressure, except for the SB when we didnt have an o line
@@CBrown621 didnt they constantly end up on 3rd and long situations because of the blitz and then just forced to throw deep
Teams aren’t gonna drop everyone back with a run game. Teams took advantage of the the Chiefs poor o line and run game. Hence the new o line. Teams won’t be able to run as much cover two. The only team that stopped the Chiefs last year was the Bucs in the SB. They were able to play cover two and stop the run with their two great LBs. The Chiefs problem in offense was their o line
There is also a mindset. They feel in love with the big play and got to the point were they just expected they would come because of who they were. The Bucs were smart in how the played them but also the mind set. they didn't play it safe but didn't go crazy trying to run up the score. They just kept pounding them till it broke on both sides of the ball.
It was so silly, the not using the run, they had Edwards-Hilaire. Even in the Superbowl the few times they used him they made gains.
Man imagine where they would be with Kareem hunt
Probably the same place. The only running backs that are truly gamechangers are elite level all round backs. Kareem hunt is just good. Also the Chiefs have enough domestic abusers without him.
Very well done and I heard of those colleges formations entering NFL but glad to see Andy implementing it.
Thanks Brian!
The run game imo would have been better if they would've drafted taylor or swift
This content is next level, Alex. Showing and explaining the detail behind formations reminds me of some other video that pointed out the off-ball movement in Basketball, enabling me to enjoy a game I'd watched for so long on another dimension. Thank you so much.
Wow thanks Mike!! Love to hear it
Last time Chiefs had a dominant O Line Vermeil was the coach.
Make Clyde the next Alvin Kamara
They lost because they only had one starter on the offensive line. Can’t stop the best pass rush in the league with scrubs.
That's news to me. It was my impression that they were down two starting linemen and picked up Mike Rimmer, a starting SB left tackle for the Panthers. The Bucs played most of the year without one of their starting lineman. They played the NFC Conference Championship against MVP Aaron Rogers without either starting safety, and they played most of the season without their starting nose tackle who suffered a broken ankle in week five against Chicago.
Fantastic content. Leaps and bounds beyond almost anything on ESPN or NFL Network. I love learning about the details of the game and concepts. They never really talk about this on any major network and watching on tv always focuses on the quarterback so we can’t really see the play develop.
Thank you man! Comments like these mean a lot
they're not making it back to the sb this year - but mahomes wins his second mvp
Nah they will be back
@@chrisanderson2056 Hm
I feel like they will, knowing how the offense is run they have a good chance, it’s the defense that’s the problem
@@loganhyer2784 and the defense isnt that bad as it is, they're good enough to get them another ring, just not great
yes they are, no other team in the AFC is even close
Sorry, not as optimistic as you are. Changing schemes is fine, but still comes down to players. That fact a kid is drafted from college who did it, big difference coming to the NFL. Sure, the Chiefs will do well during the season. I just don't see them as being dominate as they have been over the last few seasons.
As a Bills fan, they ran down our goddamn throats
Our run D was that bad lol, wasn't even aware that KC had an underperforming run game
Didn't most of your best run defenders opt out last season though?
In that game, the Chiefs had run blockers Osemele and Kilgore playing in the oline, both did not play most of the season. They also had two starting tackles. The video was claiming they know Andy's philosophy failure, even if he went 14-2 , the chiefs scrapping the running game was due to injuries. Alex makes good videos, but he cherry picks stats like a mad man.
@@ericwolf9664 One NT/1-tech did
But our LBs and edge guys also did poorly too.
@@donarmstrong2182 yup, oline was depleted and when you're playing against suh and vita vea not to mention those lbs you'd better have starters in there..that.cost them the game...
You guys wanted them to run cause the pass was great for them and the run they were below average. it is how Belichick plays them to cause you would rather have them run the ball all day than kill you in the passing game. Honestly the chiefs got caught in the same thing in the super bowl it's just the the tampa D had help from the Tampa O getting them really behind so thing were forced play a bad hand.
They aren't forced to anything Mahomo is just overrated
They were an off-side penalty away from being in Super Bowl 53,and they were in SB 54 and 55.....I think he's married now but clever play on words....you mad bro?
@@donniefleming9914 You mean how the NFL gift him the SB? but they thought they were gonna get away with the same dirty tactics vs the Buccs! wrong.
@@MacMyKitty It's cool,you think Mahomes is overrated....but to be so mad you have to throw in the gay reference,just odd to me.....I can't stand Brady,but he's a good quarterback
Love the content man!!
Thanks Bunz! Love the name!
LOL @ Andy Reid in that stupid mask.
by far my favorite football channel, i be ITCHING for content . keep it up g
Wow man thanks!! Every Saturday morning I got you
A. Reid the offensive guru had Vick & Mahomes! %$#@!&^%#$$$! WTF
YEah that ravens play @10:36 is a good base but if you are not lamar jackson that same thing is not going to work.
As decimated as our O-line was, I think Andy's son Britt's DUI crash right before the SB had to be huge distraction as well.
Love Smith should have been the Chiefs coach!!!!!!
This was an excellent production thank you.. just subscribed and liked
Thanks Robert!! Appreciate that brother
It’s amazing to think that the Pros are going to Universities to learn ?
did anyone else realize the massive hole that William missed @2:58? Like wtf lol
You've earned my sub
Common great video
Prescient video
I'd believe that the Chiefs are back to back potential Superbowl Champs, or never appear for another 13 years
The NFL is wild
The Chiefs seemed so similar to the 2011 Packers.
I'll be real interested to see what happens to Mahomes when Kelce and Hill aren't playing anymore. Mahomes is great, but he certainly has a lot of support around him
@@AlexRollinsNFL I hope Andy take notes what went wrong with Rodgers under McCarthy. All the talent in the world on offenses for years, but that defense become more and more barren. I think Andy is smarter than that, getting humiliated like that will do wonders for a QB who is so young, I'm curious as well who will be his new go to guys when they are gone
Great video
Thanks brother!
Great video.
Thanks brother!
I love my Chiefs but I don't feel they did enough to win another Super Bowl. They continue to ignore our shitty defense, they are unreliable and blow coverage all the time, Tampa Bay got anything they wanted against our pathetic secondary except for Honey Badger and Sorensen
Kc doesnt have to have a elite defense to win the ship. They had average defenses that turned the pressure up in the postseason. They def have enough, pass rush will be better with reed taking pressure off cj and clark, willie gay back healthy and bolton at linebacker will help us improve that unit. Run defense overall should be improved and sneed will only get better and thornhill will be fully 100% next year. Trust the defense is not in bad shape at all, they have the potential to be better than last year
I was surprised how they took a step back with Spags last year after winning the SB
They built the D they wanted one that's good at getting people off the field on 3 and long. But it's really bad a stopping RB and TE. The biggest issue might be in division with the chargers that IF they got the right coach have the QB and time to figure out what they suck at doing.
Andy Reid had these same exact problems in Philly. What will happen now is in about 3-4 years, the fans will be sick of the Andy Reid show and he'll either retire or move somewhere else.
Andy will retire as the chiefs headcoach. But I do love all of you guys that quote tradition of the past as the way it will always be. Mahomes has broken so many traditions in his short career, that I love watching them fall.
@@rustyreese4006 Has he really though? Has he broken more "traditions" than Russel Wilson? IMHO, his career is almost a perfect parallel to Wilson.
I heard a great quote from Pat Kirwan years ago that went something like this "Every player is at their fastest the day they start in the NFL, and they get a little slower each season. But the defenses are always getting faster every year".
Russel Wilson pretty much demonstrates that unfortunate fact.
@@teekay_1 he has from my perspective. Keep in mind that KC hadn't had a playoff win for over twenty years, while being in the playoffs a lot. Mahomes also lead a come back from 24 points in the playoffs, also very rare. Also the comeback wins down by 10 or more points. Pretty much he took a team that had been drowning in mediocrity for 50 years, and turned it into a powerhouse.
Wilson did the same thing for two years, but it went off the rails afterwards. KC may have the same problem, but it's not looking that way because of the talent they have been able to keep. Only time will tell, and I'm sure enjoying my teams rise out of mediocrity, so most of the traditions are team traditions. Just don't hate on me for being a homer. It's true, but I was also there in the eighties when they were just trash.
But pff told me running the ball isn’t important
You're right, disregard this video completely. It does not matter
Hahahahahahhah. As soon as PFF tried selling that nonsense I knew they were a joke. You notice, they go out of their way not to mention rushing now? It's hilarious.
Great video man!
Thanks brother!
Another fire video from the goat 💪. Ngl, as a Bills fan, I’m not sure we did enough this off season to be able to compete with/get past KC this year. That team is the real deal.
Idk man, the bills have one of most complete rosters in the league, if anyone has a chance at kc besides the BUCS they do... just wonder how long they can keep those guys together because they're loaded...
Haha thanks JT! I agree, you guys had a fairly quiet offseason. If anything I'm predicting a bit of a drop off from Allen, tough for him to repeat a blow up year like that. Still love the Bills though!
Bills badly need a RB & decent TE right now they have some of the worst stables at both those positions in the league. Also need to try and move Ed Oliver and see if theres any improvement and really think he's only real chance at succeeding in the league is if he were traded to a team with a 3-4 defense and try him there cause he's been less than starter caliber depite draft hype fooling people and seems to be a tweener without the aggression needed to overcome his physical limitations at the position.
@@IntroducingMrLucci the t.e and rb situations are factors, think they can trade or pick up talent in free agency.? If not they're first three draft picks should go towards those, Oliver although not a game breaker is solid and still young with time to develop
@@jaha777jaha6 no they don’t they don’t have a defense to stop Mahomes browns and ravens do
Despite not understanding most of the more technical aspects of this, Nice video
Thanks brother! Were there any parts you had questions on?
the chiefs have a qb just coming out of his rookie contract. If Mahomes takes a smaller contract they may be able to stretch it a few years, but, that is a big if.
Are you not aware that mahomes contract is designed for contingencies to be restructured to make room for signing other talent? People keep predicting that his contract will force the team to lose so much talent that they will not be able to compete. They already restructured to do what they did this off season because of the pandemic, and it looks like they are coming back better than last season. Maybe the rest of the top QB talent will be more willing to take deals that will make sure they have talent around them instead of deals like Russell Wilson that gutted his team. We'll see.
@@rustyreese4006 like I said, that is a big IF.
@@formulah113 I don't blame you one bit. When I saw the contract they offered him I was thinking the same thing. But after it was analyzed I thought it was a brilliant move for the team and Patrick.
Like brian flores showed everyone how to beat the rams ( and got a HC job because of it) fangio showed teams how to stop the chiefs O and if you think todd bolwes ( the best assistant coach who should be a HC) would miss it and not expose it you dont know whats coming. Andy reid is a fantastic coach but if he couldnt see this being an issue before the big game instead of the offseason he is slipping.
so where should clyde get drafted in fantasy
I like Clyde a lot but I'm a little squeamish taking him in the second round, if you can get him in the third smash the button
Cause there defense is trash
You mean to tell me the Chiefs will become a running team again like the Alex Smith years?
Let’s see where this goes…
Nah I don’t think that’s what he means
He means the Chiefs need to learn to run the ball and start playing smarter like they did against Buffalo, Pat Mahomes drops too deep in the pocket on every pass average like 10-12 yards and he screws over his o-line forcing so many negative plays, then has to rely on more deep balls to bail them out. That’s why the Bucs played 2 high against the chiefs 89% of the time, because Andy Reid and Mahomes refused to punish them underneath and keep just mindlessly throwing deep which will not work when the secondary is selling out to start deep and has a DB like SMB who is just as fast and polished as all your receivers. The chiefs may hit a lot of home runs but they strike out just enough to lose games that actually matter.
This is a simplified summary of what goin on
He's saying Chiefs are going to tweak their run game so their passing offense can get back to being not only dangerous but efficient. You can't have a championship team based off of home run hits alone. The running game will open up their short passing and red zone offense if the tweaks work.
@@dkoda840 Mahomes drops so far in the pocket because he’s had a below average interior o line since he’s started. When you have a bad iol, it’s not wise to stay in the pocket. Brady looked washed in 2019 with a similar situation. Mahomes may look like a different QB.
@@jamesfagan5694 Mahomes has ALWAYS dropped so far in the pocket, yes his line is below average but guess what dropping 12 yards deep only makes your below average o-line even worse. It gives ends an easy angles to blow you up, and guess what it kept happening and largely why Pat went from one of the harder QBs to sack in 2019-2020 to middle of the pack in 2020-2021. The angles he gives edge rushers is nearly a straight line, no offensive lineman even has a change in that situation. Speaking from personal experience. Mahomes is more comfortable further away from the line sure, so Andy Reid needs to retool his play calling to have this sort of situation come up less and less, or else he and the Chiefs will be threw.
