Really sucks checking in here and just seeing them taking over these threads with their passive aggressive shit post and repeating the same mute points over and over and over.

You mean moo points.

Bah... It's only Wednesday.

This week almost feels as long as the entire offseason, suddenly.

Been saying this for days now, and it finally dawned on you!

no context in this post ... what happend ?

baker picked up a first down and in the second set of downs it went Below.

this isn't on baker

1st run for -1 yards

2nd screen play that was sniffed out and baker had to throw the ball away.

3rd and 11. Chris jones beats his man before baker can get to the top of his drop and had to dump the ball or take a sack.


sorry bud i know you want to blame baker for everything if you want to be like that blame mahomes for what happend in the superbowl too.

The problem with the Browns is they are playing an Andy Reid football team with extraordinary offensive talent first.

Andy is one of the best play designers in NFL history. He does this shit on a napkin in June when he’s out getting a burger. He probably thinks of NFL play designs when he’s ****ing his wife.

There’s a reason why the Chiefs have been amazing in September. Andy has tons of new designs ready that haven’t been seen before so it’s difficult to prepare for him either way.

The Patriots in 2017 were a top defense with maybe the best defensive coach ever. Andy and Alex Smith scored 40+ on opening night on the road.

A Browns defense in the first game of a rebuild is not going to stop us

Baker had to dump the ball

Without rewatching the plays personally, I would hope that Mahomes would try and make something happen in this situation.

Admittedly, that’s just me reading your report of what happened.

The Chiefs were never really in the Super Bowl, but if it was a close game and Mahomes dumped the ball off twice to end a drive, some of my frustration would be directed his way too.

Oh man.

This takes me back to the bad old days. When playoff losses were NEVER Alex Smith’s bitch-ass fault.

Running a screen on second or third and long is a common tactic of run-first teams. Thus why they’re often sniffed out if crucial spots by playoff defenses.

It’s the type of play you run when you don’t trust your QB.

Yep. Andy is always one step ahead of the defensive minds in the league. While they're just now figuring out the best way to slow down our passing game a bit, Andy is gearing up to run the football right up their asses. At least that's what I think is gonna happen.

Shhhhhh…don’t spoil the season for him. He believes.

Next offseason: “Baker just needs more weapons!!!! How could ANY QB succeed with just an elite OL, 2 elite running backs, 2 good tight ends, and 2 good wide receivers!!!!!! It’s not Baker’s fault!!”

i understand the hate for alex he was 1-5 for you guys in the playoffs. i think a little premature for the Baker - alex comps i would say alex smith and andy dalton are a better match.

we will see what happens over the next couple years.

if they get the D right i don't think it will be an issue. they scored enough points last year the D just sucked.

8th in scoring in the AFC and 17 points in the biggest game of the season (despite Mahomes getting hurt, which allowed Cleveland to stick with the run instead of putting it all on Baker in a shootout).

Yup, scored enough.

i gave credit to the KC Defense that was the most surprising part of the game for me. they seem to be hot and cold but Chris jones blew up that last drive when they needed it.
