Hurts finally ran the O last season. Many of our key plays attributed directly to this fact. He audibled into a good counter for the D play.

If you combine Joe Montana, Tom Brady, a world record sprinter and a power lifter... you almost get someone as good as Hurts.

So if things have completely flipped to having the target squarely on our backs now…..then just staying the same …is going backwards.

First you need to beat me in the SB, then maybe changes would be needed. For the next 2 years teams have that challenge. Bark and the tush push is the offense and there is no reason to change that until such time as it becomes apparent neither thing works any longer

Doesn’t take a genius to understand we had to pass on all those third and longs after sticking with Saquan never gaining any yardage.

Or... just listen to what Spags said?

Here is my targeted player and one of the few I would make a move UP for- Derrick Harmon. he's a great fit

How many 3rd and longs do you think occurred? Just curious.

Idk... maybe listen to the post game interviews from the KC side and all the analysts when they show the plays?

But I forget who I'm talking to....the person that knows more than everyone about football.

But sure…I understand the simpleton just going straight to…Saquan focus made the passing game work. Because usually that would be accurate. They did focus on Saquan. Not denying that even. But it worked. They stopped him. So what that created was third and longs…second and long. Those third and 7 passes no way anybody can convince me they were focused on thinking we’d run the ball.

You said yourself …we stick to Saquan…even though he wasn’t doing squat. That created very difficult situation for our QB. He consistently was relied on to bail us out and convert in less than ideal situations.

We agree we stick to Saquan. We agree Saquan wasn’t gaining anything. How can both of these statements be true….and Hurts wasn’t forced into very obvious passing situations?

Not even possible to have everything take place in a game like you suggest. It’s near impossible.

I do listen to everybodies thoughts and opinions. Good points I digest. But yeah…I’m going to stick to my own points of view.

SO you're comparing Barkley to "special talent" Sanders "rushing attack"? LMAO, not CLOSE at ALL

Since Siri became coach…started off 2-5 then gave up playcalling to Steichen to save his hide….all the way to wining the SB…when hasn’t any defense had to focus on stopping our rushing attack?

We were putting together a brand new O that was being created as we went along. The passing game was developing as we went along. But just because we didn’t pass…clearly didn’t mean we couldn’t. Key difference!

You mean the brand new O Hurts failed at? After leading the league in PICKS? Siri saved the season by making Hurts a game manager and he has THRIVED in that position. Hurts is no Payton Manning here LOL

Hurts hasn’t even peaked. I know it’s hard to believe….but he’s not old at all. He hasn’t benefitted from top coaching and scheme…or having a consistent same OC in college or the pros. He became a pro pretty young. He’s been a little behind in some QB areas that needed to be developed. Not that he can’t do any of it. Every time he proves the HurtsHaters wrong. You said he couldn’t win a SB. Done…by leading us in spectacular fashion as the main catalyst for our glory.

The offense has its formula... Hurts passing less works...to perfection this past year!

Then why do you want to change that?

You said he can’t throw over the middle. Then Moore moves Smitty and AJ there some…and boom…with anybody that actually is worthy of being a pro WR…he does it. Problem clearly has been Rosie couldn’t provide that last piece. No QB is producing over the middle to Quez, OZ, JJaw…all the other proven unproductive WR.

You said Hurts can’t read. Then boom…as soon as Kelce retires and we hire Moore that can coach….Hurts did that job very well.

This track record of events isn’t tiny. Years now we’ve seen what’s been occurring under Siri with Hurts. Hurts I agree wasn’t developed great reading Ds in college. Different O every season obviously being a main factor. He was young. Heck short of Peyton Manning what rookie QB is great at reading Ds?

Teams that could stop the run…like in the SB(more Saquan never playing in big games choking actually) what would be a good counter for that situation?

Having a nice lead meant Barkley didn't need to run amok, the plan after DeJeans pick 6 was just to keep the ball in bounds and make them beat us. Of course we kept scoring anyway because their D was weak. KC got to the SB on refs calls,they weren't that talented

Totally understand you are one step at a time thinking. You go with things until you get beat and figured out. I’m more proactive. I’m looking to be a step ahead. I want to keep developing and adding already understanding what’s obviously inevitable.

He isn’t anything like the prototypical QB. Completely a different player all the way. It works!

I’m saying myself Spags focused on Saquan. You are being way too simple. That actually completely worked though. So after focusing and shutting down Saquan over and over again….what happened the other downs? Saquan ran for 2 yards a carry. We both agree we still stuck with him.

There is no other situation that could result but having obvious tough passing downs.

The plan was beautiful with keeping the run in play.

What has been proven is Siri always chose the short term answers. He had Kelce …so he could skip teaching and relying on Hurts being developed on so much of that.

UH when the 2's and 3's played the offense functioned just as well. Hurts isn't the cog that makes the O line function, please. But we know the agenda by now that the team collapses without your god(which is false)

How about what Spags says instead of what you say?
