Our scheme was not the reason Mahommes was shut down. There were open receivers and running lanes he could have taken advantage of. He just played terrible football that second half. I guarantee it won't work as well if we try it again.
When I was watching the game something just felt off to me like Mahommes was throwing the game or at least letting the Bengals back into the game. But afterwards reading about the adjustments and seeing the breakdowns. I think everybody is right on this one.
1: The Bengals not only made a good adjustment but the players really played it well.
2: Mahommes since the superbowl against the Bucs and the 1st half or so of this past season. Has shown that he can struggle if he sees something that confuses him as far as how his offense is supposed to attack it.
So I really think just about everyone on defense played well with the adjustment. But I also think Mahommes didn't have a good 2nd half and I'm sure missed some opportunities. But the defense flustered him.
