I kind of don't want Henry to look for anyone specifically. Just run for 200 yards.Pretty sure Henry will be looking for him.

Yeah he doesn't do this. Ramsey once ran right in his way in the middle of the field and setup a revenge hit and stuff like that happens, but has zero history of looking for someone and going after themI kind of don't want Henry to look for anyone specifically. Just run for 200 yards.
I believe the Chiefs will never win sheeit with Andy Reid as coach. He got bailed out in a big way by Mahomes last week, and in the playoffs Reid has consistently not had his team ready to play.Cjw_55106 said:I’d like to get this out-of-the-way now. If the titans win, are Chiefs fans going to call for Reid’s dismissal? It seems like it’s a common thing now and Reid doesn’t have a great “big game” track record.
Lived around Philly all my life and I agree with your Reid view.I believe the Chiefs will never win sheeit with Andy Reid as coach. He got bailed out in a big way by Mahomes last week, and in the playoffs Reid has consistently not had his team ready to play.
In last year's AFC Championship, the Patriots led 14-0 at the half and the offense did NOTHING. Consequently their defense was on the field the entire half. Mahomes got them close at the end, but another example of not being prepared. And at the end of the game, his defense was gassed.
Last week - not prepared.
Today - we'll see. The Hunts will never fire him, and my fear is that Reid wastes 7-8 years of Mahome's talent. I pray that I am totally wrong and that Mahomes is the guy to bring Reid and the Chiefs to the promised land.
Agreed. However, if they lose today or in the Super Bowl, people can keep ringing the "Andy Reid cannot win the big game" bell, and if they win the Super Bowl, those same people will give Mahomes all of the credit and say he won the Super Bowl in spite of Reid.Andy Reid is crazy underrated still, amazingly as that is. The Chiefs hadn’t even been to the AFCCG since 1993. Now they are there 2 years in a row. They’ve made the playoffs 6/7 years under Reid. There is 0% chance they should or even would fire him if they lose today. The narrative on him may not change unless they win the Super Bowl, which they very well might do in a couple weeks.
I don't know if they weren't prepared or just had a few early issues. They sure worked them out.I believe the Chiefs will never win sheeit with Andy Reid as coach. He got bailed out in a big way by Mahomes last week, and in the playoffs Reid has consistently not had his team ready to play.

The DBs have their work cut out for them for sure. Byard and adoree are the keys IMOIf Tennessee can control the clock and minimize the Chiefs possessions they have a great chance to win. Otherwise, not so much IMO.
Some of this is on Mahomes and not in a bad way. For so long, a team has had to lose at "this level" to learn and win at "that level" in all sports.I believe the Chiefs will never win sheeit with Andy Reid as coach.

We'll see and he is wonderful, but you might be asking too much of a 2nd year starting QB.
In this era, you pretty much have to beat Belichick or one of his prized pupils. They always have some new wrinkle or dust off some old one to confuse the QB. It took Peyton years to be able to win a Supe.
Pees is one of my favorite former Belichick staff members and he just figured out how to slow down a guy no one has all year in Lamar Jackson. Not coincidentally, another young QB in the playoffs. It might just be Mahomes needs time. I sure don't doubt he'll win at least one.
Reid, the GM, has only drafted a 7th round linemen in the last three years. Not surprisingly, they don't have a top line and the Chiefs had a top line for 10-15 years. I would have said he's a dope this summer but he's in the AFCG with that line.
As I said earlier, it is super curious that he's barely used the backup RBs lately. I would bet $ he is "up to something" and we find out today or if they win, next week. The Chiefs had a nice two headed monster at RB (with three backs) for a good while there this season.
I think Mahomes is the most impatient QB Reid has ever coached. I love the high flying excitement and Favre like moments but even Favre had to learn to just take a first down to the backup TE sometimes. Jeff George was the best (arm) gunslinger the league has ever had IMO and Reid has got his gunslinger using his head more than George ever did. Mahomes was more college like buy time, scramble, take a hit woo hoo as a rookie. He's definitely more mature or wiser. He still will, no doubt, but it's more like Favre or Young or Elway and got a purpose to it now. Reid always had these speedy deep threats but Hill can do other things. There have been a zillion Hill's in NFL history (like one in Cincy now) that really can't pan out because there's more to the game than just speed. I bet everything with Hill is different than it was in Reid's offense for years- idk if he needs space to operate or faster throws or what, but he is abnormal so there had to be changes.
I think Spencer Ware's recent play was a good flash as to what the O used to be and what it is now. He used to be a tough runner and one of a few that they had and the line was gonna beat you up too. I have wondered about this a lot this week. The Chiefs run D is OK and they allow big plays more than anyone last I checked, so they're an awful matchup on paper for Derrick Henry. Reid knows all too well though how to rely on the back(s) and line all day. He is probably well versed on whatever the Titans are doing and it might not be so much a typical gameplan, but "this is what bugged us when we ran all day."
There's an almost spoiled attitude from Chiefs fans this week. It's pretty evident that some of it comes from a disrespect for the Titans and I get that because they weren't that great for a good portion of the year, but...the complaints about success come across badly. Look at the Browns and Bengals and Bucs. I think it's been twenty years since the Titans were this close.
Then there's Vrabel. He's so egotistical it rubs people the wrong way as always happens in society. I think Reid's ego does that to you guys and then I think it's not spoiled, it's the very same reaction to an ego.
I don't know but...I hope you all appreciate how far your team has come. We all know a few bad free agents moves or draft classes can drop a team out of contention real fast
I like the Chiefs giving seven.Like the Titans getting 7 points. The offensive line is playing at a very high level and Henry is obviously hit an incredible stretch as an arhlete. Defense just had to keep a lid on the Cheifs so the Titans can get a lead.
Why hasn't it been deemed "***Official"?Wondering if I should post in the other thread
In the somewhat immortal words of the band Rancid on their umpteenth album, honor is all I knowHonor bet is on. Im up 10-0.
Not sure what i am going to do with your honor but I will find a spot for it.In the somewhat immortal words of the band Rancid on their umpteenth album, honor is all I know
HOT DIGGITY DOG! YOUSA MADE A DONATION TO MY HONOR COLLECTION!Not sure what i am going to do with your honor but I will find a spot for it.
Lucky for me I have no honor!! Wait wat?? Cheifs defense came through and played well vs. the run. Tannehill just can't carry a team like he needed to. Still not a believer going 49ers in the bowl.HOT DIGGITY DOG! YOUSA MADE A DONATION TO MY HONOR COLLECTION!
Nah, gg bra. I liked the Chiefs given what happened to Houston.
