I feel like this first game we took the Ferrari (our offense) out of the garage, gave it a quick wax job in the driveway, then put it away. We never really got it going and put the pedal down. I think that might have been our Preseason playbook we used. We showed nothing especially the 4th quarter. |

I think I’d sit Ward out for this one. Worst case scenario if you end up in a shootout, the Chiefs still win that battle.

I think Andy is looking forward to the rest of this season and the playoffs. Nate Taylor said today that they showed very few new or complex plays compared to what he could see in practice. Yesterday's game very much had the sense of knocking the rust off, putting rookies through the paces and just finding a groove, not of putting the hammer down. I expect that the Chargers game will be similar to last night's game. Chargers have a good defense - they've got Joey Bosa and their d-backs are formidable. But our O-line last night was a step up from last year and with CEH, teams either load the box to stop him or they empty the box to stop Mahomes. And we have not even seen CEH as a pass catcher. For the Chargers game, we can gauge how much Andy is hiding future game plans by seeing how much CEH gains receiving yards. The fewer receiving yards, the more he's hiding his future game plans. |

Tyrod will be running for his life. He can't throw worth a shit on the run either. SD will try and pound their running game on us, but will fall behind and not have an answer.
They will probably be like the Texans and keep running the clock for us when down by 3 scores, becasue they don't have any other option. 38 - 17 Chiefs |

If it weren't for Randy Bullock pulling a hammy at the end, the Bengals tie the game and likely win. We're talking about a rookie QB in his first NFL action. You would think as much as everyone touts the Chargers defense, they would have caused more problems for Burrow.
I'm also not sure if the Bengals defense is any good or not, but the Chargers did this: Punt Punt Punt Turnover on Downs Field Goal Turnover on Downs Field Goal Missed Field Goal Punt Touchdown Field Goal Punt It's almost like they can't figure out what to do with their three running backs. I'm sitting Ekeler in my fantasy leagues until further notice, because the Chargers just seem to want to get too cute. Also Tyrod Taylor doesn't seem to be a good fit for what they would like to accomplish on offense. You have strong receivers at the skill position and what seems to be a talented backfield. Might as well speed up the transition to Herbert, because otherwise you're just wasting the talent on this team. |

Joe Burrow: 23/36 (64% completion pct.), throwing for 193 yards. Mixon 69 yards on 19 carries, while Burrow had 46 yards on 8 carries.
It's hard to get a read on the Bengals because unless you were really trying last year (like buying Sunday ticket and tuning in each week) you really didn't get a chance to see them play. If I had to guess though, they're going to be fighting Cleveland for the 3rd/ 4th place finish in the division. I don't see much chance for the Chargers to win next week. |

the fake crowd noise will probably be accurate for this game. For as many times as they missed and cheered for the opposing teams yesterday, this would likely have been reality for this one.

Just to point out an anomoly that happened yesterday...
Both So-FI Stadium teams (Rams/Chargers) received a questionable OPI in the final 30 seconds...Bengals had a game winning TD taken off, Cowboys had a completion removed that would have put them into scoring range. Live announcers called both game-deciding penalties "ticky-tack".... Cowboys also pulled a head-scratching move in a low scoring game...down 20-17 in the 4th, they went on 4-3 inside their own 10....passing on the chance to tie. I cant think of a realistic scenario where you make that decision...if it were a shoot-out, where the last team with the ball might win, maybe. Bengals kicker was 24/24 yet horribly shanked a last second FG that was essentially an extra point... Last edited by BlackOp; 09-14-2020 at 09:09 AM.. |
