Huh. He hasn't played all year

I'm confused by people being worried and concerned over Dawson not playing. I can't imagine a rookie playing his first career game in a playoff game.

Bill has no respect for their run game

Mentioned earlier i would invite them to run actually like HOU, GB, PIT games. Kept all under 20 points despite giving some ground..

 

[Betterthanmost]

I thought Obi was ideal for this game to handle Kelce. I love it, BB may have been working on him for a while. I hear a really smart kid, can run well, just not shifty enough for fast receivers. He can help with any jump balls to Kelce.

Huh. He hasn't played all year

I was being sarcastic...should have made that clear... I was actually looking at the inactives and thought it wasn't too bad ..my bad !

 

[CheekyDave]

Feeling less than optimistic now. With both Shelton and Wise out, Priest Holmes will run all over us

and here I was worried about Otis Taylor...

 

[RobertWeathers]

Wise quite a loss for this game . hopefully Clayborn doesn't sail too much..
Thankfully there is John Simon + High, KVN edge option
Shelton - as film showed - didn't really improve much . struggled w balance..
Obi reinforcement for dangerous KC return game..

I wonder if they have intelligence that tells them Mahomes knee is balky so they want him to move around

Was active last week.

I wonder if he's going to have a very simple job, just hit Hill hard every time he comes off the line.

Clayborn is the last guy I'd want on the field for that game plan.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Went and looked at the snap count from the sd game defensively. Shelton only played 7 snaps out of 71. So we basically have the same front 7 personnel as that game. But also we really didn’t have to defend or respect the run the entire 2nd half..

 

[SVN]

KC is going to keep running with shelton out i suspect.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Clayborn is the last guy I'd want on the field for that game plan.

As long as he's disciplined he's fine.

If he's gonna be Marsh we are hosed

Kelce too. Re-route and cover. Pressure is secondary.

I wasn't able to watch much of the Chiefs/Colts game last week (had to work) but I remember reading after that the Chiefs special teams had issues. I really feel like this will make a huge difference in the game for the Pats.

An hour to go...

Wouldn't be surprised if we blocked a punt... or two. Chiefs had problems with punt protection over the middle.

Tomase: This will be the end of the road for flawed Patriots in Kansas City

Good old jackwagon Tomase ... such a tool.

Tick tick..one hour left. Man I love/hate playoff games. SB is a little easier to deal with win or lose because there is no FB the next week.

I want football in 2 weeks to matter.

 

[jimnance]

I don't understand how crowd noise can be louder at Arrowhead (broke record) than in a dome like NO. What is it about those redneck fat slobs that make them scream so loud?

It's all the gristle and fat from the barbecue.
It lubricates their throats with a thick coat of grease.
