This defense is top heavy and when you had Chris Jones out of position, Frank Clark injured, Ward injured, Mathieu moping around it looked pretty awful.
When you add Ingram, move Jones inside and get Mathieu roaming around again.... Well, this defense is good enough to go all the way if our offense is also back in the groove. |

Wish our schedule was a little different. Then again, the bright side is, this team maybe needed a punch to the teeth to get them to play with a chip on their shoulder again. Especially mahomes who isn't used to not dominating on the pro level. A lot of his issues have always been there but he was able to work around it. I also wonder if this will make him think twice as he decides how much cap space he wants his contract to take up, having dealt with the frustration this year or having missing pieces.

Injured Mahomes, bad defense to start the year. I'm fine with it taking time as long as our best football is ahead of us. It will also be better to have our offense work on breaking the shell now..rather than rolling people and losing in the playoffs. Now we get to practice how to eat that up... Reid already starting to adjust more and Mahomes is becoming a better QB. |

Spags saved his job.
Next season will be interesting, to say the least, as I'm sure there will be a lot of turnover on that side of the ball. |

Jones is still playing a lot at end, and was effective there Sunday night.
I think we probably, in the end, made the right decision there. That allows us to take more advantage of matchups with Jones vs multiple players. The issue was getting him acclimated to the position and learning how much to play him at end. About 15 snaps a game seems about right. |

Spags defenses only trend upwards during the season here.

We need to supplement the pass rush with young guys. I think they will keep Matheiu at a short contract. Something like 3 years but really it’s 2.
Get another corner and Sorenson replacement and we good |
