I subscribe to the belief that forcing Tannehill to do more than he's been asked of is our best chance to win this one. |

That's my point about the Titans physicality and what they will do. That whole game we were losing the ball because we couldn't hold on to it getting it punched out. Sent a message to the rest of the league that we were soft in protecting the ball and the next few games that is all you saw is defenses attempting to punch the ball out as they were tackling us.

The Titans only hit Pat 4 times and managed 2 sacks against our patchwork OL. That was even without Schwartz for part of the game. Pat was also just coming back from injury and still a step slow. Their pass rush didn’t disrupt us much before when our OL was in MUCH worse shape. |

This irrational fear of Tannehill is akin to the fear of Fuller in the last game. I understand being scared of Henry. Tannehill? Not so much. I hope and pray that their fate rests in his hands on Sunday.

He's been playing well as a function of their offense performing well. Certainly not a world beater or anything.

So yes, ball security is extremely important. I sure hope the Texans game was a wakeup call in that regard. |

He CAN make some good downfield passes. And frankly, he's gonna have to. The Titans aren't going to win this game on 200 yards from Henry unless it's 200 yards via 40 yard chunks that go for scores. The Titans team we've seen of late and their 'winning formula' of incredibly inefficient offense just won't do it against this team. They're going to have to get Tannehill involved and he's gonna have to play as well as he's ever played. If we lose this game, we'll call it the "Tannehill game" or the "AJ Brown Game". We aren't going to lose this game because of Derrick Henry. |

Kinda feels like the Colts game last year to me.
I think people might be underrating that the Titans are traveling for their 4th straight must win game against a Division Champ. Their defense just played like 90 plays against Baltimore. It’s one game and anything can happen, but the Chiefs should feel much more fresh in this one. Just will just be our third home game in 4 weeks. We also had a really late bye week. |

Pat has been thinking about this moment for a year and he’s determined to carry this team if he has to, just like Sunday. The kid is locked in and this time he’s got Spags, Honey Badger and Clark on the other side to lead the defense and support him. This team just capped off its worst quarter of the season with 3 quarters of by far their absolute best football of the season. I have not seen this team play together in as complete of a game in any time I can remember in the Andy Reid era. There is no way in hell we are losing this weekend. I don’t give a shit if the Titans are on a win streak. The last 3 quarters last Sunday was the best and most complete game I have ever seen a Chiefs team play. It just feels like the Titans are walking into a gigantic buzzsaw against a stadium full of fans and players that are ready to take out so much frustration on them. I will be shocked if this is not a double-digit win for the Chiefs. |
