Devin White, not a fan of Chiefs' coaching
https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/...rb-in-round-1/
A message for Chiefs about Super Bowl game plan for Patrick Mahomes, offense One word: ouch, White didn't hold back By Patrik Walker 1 hr ago It goes without saying the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are enjoying not only the victory itself in Super Bowl 2021 over Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs, but most certainly the spoils thereof. Take one look at linebacker Devin White and you'll immediately find evidence to that fact, having now gone from taking his Dream lap around Raymond James Stadium on his horse to grabbing a scalpel and surgically dissecting the Chiefs for a second time -- this time verbally. Never one to mince words, the All-Pro is fed up with hearing how Kansas City was at a disadvantage because they were without starting tackles Eric Fisher and Mitchell Schwartz, both sidelined by injury. To put it plainly, White wants everyone to can those excuses, tie them to a rocket and fire them into the sun, as he so eloquently made clear in a recent interview with FS1's "Undisputed." The 23-year-old laid into head coach Andy Reid, offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy and anyone else who had a hand in scheming protection for Mahomes. "We knew that they was gonna be a cocky team, which they have every right to be," White said, via NFL reporter Dov Kleiman. "They [were] the No. 1 offense in the entire National Football League. But the thing is, we knew they couldn't block us. We knew that our front four was gonna dominate them. "So they did us a favor. They played right into our hands." How so? Well, White points out the Chiefs' refusal to send any help to the edges. "We weren't gonna be that cocky team like, 'Hey, we're gonna play them in Cover One, we're gonna shut them down,'" he said. "Our best guys matched up on their best guys. We was gonna make it be a team, collective win on defense, and that's what we did. So at the end of the day they shouldn't even talk about not having their offensive tackles when they didn't even help them. "They put them on islands by themselves with the best pass rushers in the game. So that's their own fault." In looking at the film, White is telling the truth. Kansas City's plan to pretend their backups could play iso against the vicious defensive front of the Bucs was doomed from the start. Mahomes was under siege most of the evening and when he finally did break free at times, it was for naught, thanks to drops by franchise targets like tight end Travis Kelce and wide receiver Tyreek Hill -- with running back Darrel Williams getting in on the drop action as well. Mahomes was sacked three times and bullied much, much more than that would indicate, having also been hit a combined nine times in the game. Shaq Barrett alone owned one of those sacks and four of those QB hits, with Ndamukong Suh and others also joining the party to keep Mahomes out of the end zone both on the ground and in the air. He'd finish with 23 incompletions and two interceptions on the day, and while he was able to muster 270 passing yards, White says they shouldn't go writing home to mother about that number. "They started gaining yards when we were already up 21 points," said White."We already gave our little brothers the controllers, and they just started giving up little BS yards at the end. I know everybody praising Travis Kelce [for having] 133 yards, but a lot of that came at the end of the game when it was already over -- we're sitting back in zone and playing soft. The same for Tyreek Hill. "... They gave him a lot of yards and it made it look like he had a decent day. We know what went on, there was a lot of toe tagging out there." |

Put Brady behind our offensive line that game; 9 sacks minimum.

I mean, the only reason the run was "no success" was because they gave up on it. Which is unforgivable, considering that it was really the only thing even remotely working - the screens were dogshit, because the line was literally not setting the screens correctly. It was horrid. At some point, you bring Sherman in to help lead block on runs and pass block on PMIIs blindside. It was ****ing asinine, but Andy Reid is one of the greatest ever, so maybe he thought that his offensive line guru prowess would compensate for lack of chemistry, lack of continuity, lack of familiarity, and lack of talent...but it became obvious early on that the Oline was simply overwhelmed and overmatched...and you have Reid and EB, this pair of ****ing football geniuses who know more about football than I ever ****ing will...and they don't make a single adjustment all game. **** you if don't think that sounds fishy as ****. |

I don't agree with you or anyone else's NFL rigged conspiracy theories, but I don't wish to spend countless minutes and posts arguing about it. I hope when the Chiefs win another Super Bowl you can enjoy it and not let the fact you think the NFL is rigged water down your enjoyment. |

The truth is, the way the game was being officiated took away our ability to run the football. You probably aren’t scoring 31+ with that OL either way. I’ve said it over and over again. They would’ve ran the ball more if they didn’t get behind multiple scores. Once that happened, Reid probably felt his only option was Mahomes magic, and if our guys would’ve just caught the football, we would’ve been alright. |

The Bucs organization, top to bottom, is like the Beverly Hillbillies striking oil.
They have no idea how to handle success without coming across as hillbilly-rich. |

If we tried to get them some extra help, bring in the sausage, extra TE, WR chip them....something to try slowing them down so Mahomes isn't running for his life on every play and then that failed, then there wasn't nothing to be done. |

The certain weren't going to run right at Suh and Vea. That would have been suicide. I'm interested to know what kind of gameplay would have worked considering so many think they mailed it in. |

Were you completely against this before the game captain hindsight? Were you talking about how stupid it was then?

Well, he's not wrong. It was pretty silly to leave Remmers and Wylie out on an island to die.
