Steve Smith Sr. Breakdown of Drops vs Lions
 

Summary:

1. Skyy Moore drop at the 10 yard line - Skyy sped the route up too much - needed to chop the steps off the line to buy time for the RPO. Patrick put the ball in the correct spot, Skyy was just a step or two too fast.

2. Skyy Moore drop at the 45 yard line - great play by the DB playing the ball not the play.

3. Kadarius pick 6 - Lack of concentration a little bit of "I got this" and "oops"

4. Kadarius/James Mesh - James ran the route too deep - tried to correct the route and messed up the play blocking KT's view - James lacks field awareness at times - not KT fault.

5. Kadarius drop at the 40 - KT didn't sit down on the route and floated into the defender - defender made the play. The body language on this catch showed that KT was just trying to get thru the game - instead of attacking the ball with hands waiting the ball into the body.

6. Kadarius drop on last drive - Takes eye off the QB to look at what he was feeling (being wide open). "The toughest catch in the NFL is the one where you are wide open."

Nothing was working that night - really just a summation of the way things were going through the night.

He didn’t say we are doomed?? That’s what I heard here on CP…

Chief Fans can be really ****ing stupid/entitled/emotional/impatient/etc.

So nice seeing breakdowns by legit pros over some of these hack podcast breakdowns

Yeah but have you considered what Chiefs Fan said?

This was really good. Always liked Steve Smith as a player and he's great in the media as well.

You don’t think of many wide receivers as legitimate bad asses (though many are).

Steve Smith is an exception though. Every knows he’s one of the toughest dudes ever.

Thanks for including the summary for each. Interested in his opinion, but didn't feel like watching a 30 minute video about it.

Wonder if Steve Smith does these breakdowns on the regular. I've seen a few but not many; I like getting the WR POV. Especially when you get it from a really good WR that knows the craft.

Right. If only we were all like the other patient fanbases...

Can Steve play DT?

Uh-huh.

Chief Pagan's in depth review of the Detroit-KC game.

The Lions scored more points.

You're already better than Pro Football Talk.

When Steve Smith Sr. first started doing analysis in like 2018 or whenever, I didn't care for him. As it turned out he just needed some time to figure out how to look and sound good on TV/Camera. To his credit he's done very well and fairly fast.

Thanks for sharing this one, Denver. It's a nice little mid-week appetizer.

Also if Rain Man WTFs you then you best look in the mirror & get it corrected.

U still here?Nice. We butted heads but a new season...Many of the same struggles IIRC.

He's a little rough around the edges, but I was engaged the whole video.

Thought he did well.

I wasn't a fan of Steve Smith as a player, but I really like him as a talking head. He knows his stuff and he's not afraid to say it.

That was very informative. Love Steve Smith. Thanks for posting.

I guess this shouldn't be surprising considering the lack of experience in this offense and/or the new roles. Pretty much all of our WRs are either new this year (Rice/Ross/James), were here for only half of last year (Toney), or have only been here just one season (Watson/Moore/MVS).

3. Kadarius pick 6 - Lack of concentration a little bit of "I got this" and "oops"

Um, that and he knew he was crossing in front of Brian Branch. Go look at his college tape and see how well that works out when he's got a free shot at you.

Doesn't mean Toney isn't tough enough. Just means having a DB like Branch (and CJGJ) lurking back there makes WRs nervous.
