We are consistently pushing the ball downfield in short yardage situations. Play call designs aren’t very good as we are consistently relying on amazing throws and catches to keep drives alive. Very rarely do we have a guy catching footballs in space.
Our second to last possession was huge. 2nd and 3rd we go back to back downfield throws. A smart coach gets the 1st down and bleeds the clock. Game on the line the last drive and we leave Adeniji on an island against one of the NFL’s best pass rushers.
Defensive side….playing an immobile Mahomes we sat back in soft zone and they just hit five yard passes all game. Reid played for 1st downs. No pressure packages to speak of and linebackers defending open space with no awareness of receivers around them. Kelce left open and singled 3/4 of the game.
Ossai’s penalty was frustrating…the officiating was frustrating. But, our coaches were just terrible at situational football. Why do they always get a pass?
I think it is comical that message board posters think they have any idea what the game plan is or what actual call is made. Joe has the authority to make any change he wants and to hit any route he wants. It is impossible for us to know what the original call was or which is receiver was the initial priority target.
