They can’t get open, they drop passes in their hands, their jet sweeps are slow and terrible. These guys are not good.

KC's WR's are the biggest problem with the team right now. More than Mahomes and the play calling. (But thet are factors for sure) It's not just my take, it's most everyone's except all the "smart" people here. You guys ...

When did I ever say they weren't a problem? They're a pretty big problem that IMO wasn't handled aggressively enough at the deadline. But Mahomes and play calling is exacerbating the issue. The offense was just fine during the opening script. It's when they're actually calling plays in the flow of the game when the offense stagnates badly, and that's on all facets of the team.

Sounds like Mike McCarthy's Packers.

I don’t think that will happen - barring being decimated by injury it’s clear this is who the defense is. Problem is even as good as they are there are some legitimate QBs out there who will find a way to put up some points, particularly if the offense and special teams put them in bad spots like they do constantly. In years past the offense was good enough for us to never be out of the game. I certainly hope things change as the season goes on, but right now does anyone have confidence this team can keep up in a shootout?

If Mahomes is a fraud, we won't keep winning either.

If Andy calls all running plays for the rest of the season we won't keep winning either.

If our 5 best players get injured, we won't keep winning either.

Yeah, which should make it even more obvious the current woes on offense are due to far more than just a lack of talent in the WR room. Reid, Nagy, and Mahomes need to fix their shit as much as anyone on the team currently.

Yeah, we've gone stretches without CJ, omenihu, Bolton and remained excellent. This defense is the real deal.

Pretty confident there won't be a shoot out with this defense. Teams are having a hard time scoring on us.

I’d love to be proven wrong, but turnovers and mistakes by the offense and special teams can make it more difficult. I still think playoff proven QBs like Allen and Burrow can be more of a challenge than any QB we’ve faced so far. But again, I’d love to be wrong and I certainly have more faith in this defense than any I’ve seen in the past 20 years.

I'm pretty confident in this defense as well, but all it would take is one subpar half against BUF or CIN. Or almost any of the AFC contenders.

Noah Brown had 153 yards for the Texans. who tf is Noah Brown. every team has somebody who steps up, even if its a different player every week. why cant we? everyone else can get open. why cant we?

chiefs7772004 · 11-05-2023, 09:06 PM

I can't believe I'm going to ask this question, but should we kick the tires on Antonio Brown? I still lean no, but he's probably the most talented option available. Thoughts?

Why? Has it been too long since a Chief pulled a Chris Benoit in the parking lot?

Yeah.

Definitely

I mean, it’s not like they’re coming off a good season or currently being successful

Lol. Just a topic for conversation man. Like I said, I would lean no. But one other receiver I thought of that I really haven't heard anyone mention is Mahomes top wide out in College, KeKe Coutee. I hear people mention Mahomes has to trust his receivers, I'd think he'd trust his old buddy from Texas Tech. Like I said, just topic for discussion
