Official Game Thread - Week 8 - MNF - Commanders @ Chiefs

[Conn]

Luvu for some reason just turns his back to Rice and sits in his zone blindly, as if he’s standing in the only place the ball can go. Strange as hell. Saved by a dumb penalty from a dumb guy

 

[Conn]

Comical to me the lack of use Jeremy McNichols gets. He should be splitting reps with Bill at a minimum at this point.

We don’t use any of the RB’s enough for any split to be that meaningful. Running and receiving reps combined, it’s low volume all around

Looked to me like Maholmes was in front of the LoS in that Rice throw

 

[Conn]

Kinlaw dove for Mahomes ankles and landed HARD, injured or knocked his own breath out

I watched closely on the replay bc I thought the same, he had one foot behind the line. He’s a master at that

True enough. I just think this offense would be much better with McNichols getting more use. He's solid all around. Bill's talented not suggesting otherwise but I'd give Jeremy an opportunity.

 

[Riggotoni]

Now we're seeing the usual defense re-emerging....sigh.

we need some plays under center

[Conn]

You wouldn’t know it bc he doesn’t do much, but Newton is back in at least

 

[Faithful Fan]

Kinlaw hurt. This injury bug is crazy.

 

[skinsinparadise]

Can’t stop the run, can’t stop the pass

 

[Die Hard]

Kinlaw. Torn pec… swinging that arm to try and take out Mahomes legs.

 

[turtle]

Every play for them is at least 10 yrds

 

[Faithful Fan]

At least we kept it interesting for a half. 3-5 and it’s not getting much easier.

 

[Gooseneck]

My guess is that us having a defense of practice squad players are not setting us up for the Super Bowl this year. Hope we pick up some talent for next year.

 

[Die Hard]

Gnite.

 

[Conn]

And now we get the blowout we all feared. The D held up as long as it reasonably could, pressured and hit Mahomes, for two turnovers and only 7 points given up in the first half. Offense didn’t capitalize, Deebo choked and gave away points, we tied up before half but it was a struggle. You can’t throw away opportunities against a team like this and we did. Now we don’t even get a close loss for our trouble, Mahomes is picking us apart at will, we’re one-dimensional and inefficient on offense, and it could get worse before the night is out

So.... can we fire Whittless yet?
