Almost like facing Baltimore again, but a better offensive line. They could do that to try and protect Mahomes.
That's a great idea for KC, in theory. It's tougher in practice. That's not really how KC operates if their stars are healthy and they don't have limitations. Baltimore lines up and plays like that every single week. I think KC has capable personnel, but switching up the entire game plan against an elite opponent in the most important game of your season is less than ideal for them.
In short, if you tell me that the biggest thing I have to worry about from the KC offense is Pacheco and multiple TE sets like the Ravens, then I'm thanking god that I don't have to worry about the best qb in the league taking the top off of my defense and making superman throws all day.
