have to make great throws to Kelce and Kittle for them to have those big games. Just make it hard is what the dude
covering Kelce needs to do and tackle him once he catches the ball.

Shit, you watch the Bills D play Kelce the last 2 times they played them? The Bills just cannot tackle the Chiefs, don't
what it is, I know they beat them this season, but it wasn't pretty either by the Bills at all.


Pacheco is more of the type of RB that gives us problems though honestly, these no name scat backs.

We do well against the bruisers except Nick Chubb of course who is the best RB in the NFL bar none IMO.


Henry is a much better runner, but we know him. This Pacheco guy honestly scares me as we don't know him.

Fast back too, not the type of back we are the best at containing. This might be my biggest concern in this game 
besides tackling Kelce.

Agree the smaller scat back types give the Bengals more trouble

But the Bengals have only let 1 RB rush for over a 100 yds this season even without Reader most games
and that was Chubb a power back who got 101 yds. 

Kamara was very close at 99 yds though so we will say 2 backs in 11 games and the Saints had the best rushing day of the season against the Bengals by far. The Bengals are ranked 13th in run defense. Just don't want to speak into existence Pacheco having a great day lol.

Mahomes and then Kelce are the biggest concern imho, so that may lead to their RB having a decent day per the focus has to be on stopping Mahomes. We will have to pick our poison and would rather challenge Pacheco to beat us rather than the alternatives.  

Yet fortunately the Chiefs are in the same boat trying to stop all the Bengals weapons as well. Let the fireworks begin.
