Skoronski is a good player, but he’s got mediocre size and short arms. Heck, he might not even be an NFL tackle and be forced to move inside to guard. Johnson has prototypical size for an OT and he’s athletic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sack that QB Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Even if Mahomes plays well, what makes the Eagles so good is how many ways they can beat you. The Chiefs need to throw the ball to beat good teams. The Eagles don't. They can, but they can also beat you on the ground. The Eagles can run the ball on anyone, as they showed vs the NFL's #1 defense. They could limit the number of possessions the Chiefs have on offense by dominating on the ground. And what you've seen all year is come the 4th quarter, the Eagles break the other defense's spirit. We've seen so many games this year where the Eagles needed a big 4th quarter drive and just ran it down the other team's throats. Because the Eagles are not only explosive, they're physical as hell. They beat the living hell out of the "supposed" most physical team in the Niners. And trying to face this Eagles offense on the ground for 4 quarters is a daunting task. By the 4th quarter, the Eagles just break your back. The Eagles are almost always the fresher team come the 2nd half because of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. The Eagles should be able to run right at them and beat them up. I would love to hear some analysis on their LBs against the RRPO. Did I read somewhere that they haven't seen much of it? When you watch what Hurts and the O did with the RRPO to the Niners, it is a thing of beauty. Just very difficult to address. Froze the LB over and over.

No stop and start no wiggle no traffic just a b line to the pylon. Make Pacheco change direction And he's not effective because as I said in my original post he's a straight line speed guy. It is quite clear you have not seen this play. He did not have a straight line run, he was at a dead stop at the line of scrimmage, had to bounce and start again. He was also caught by Tyson Campbell, barely, a 4.4 guy who had a 5 yard head start and had the angle on him. https://www.chiefs.com/video/isiah-pacheco-shifts-into-another-gear-on-39-yard-run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes defenses are hesitant and have their heads on a swivel. Eagles make you pick your poison. And Steichen attacks accordingly. But been doing a great job of sticking with our lethal running attack. More Pascal in there as well, has been helpful. All have bought in to that smash mouth football identity. AJ, Devanta and Dallas are all to be given credit as well in chipping in to that rushing attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the fact that he's wearing #10 the year after Tyreek Hill was wearing #10 makes him seem not as good because I expect #10 on KC to be blazing every play. Either way, I'm not too concerned about Pacheo. Stop Mahomes/Kelce=SB Champs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m guaranteeing siposs is activated before the game and he plays. We don't need the roster spot anyway at this point. Teams healthy enough and we still have PS call ups if they need it.

Original Sin Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 1 hour ago, NCiggles said: Tampa beat KC on the strength of their running game and by getting pressure from Barrett on the edge at LB. The Eagles can do those same things. They played a lot of cover 7 and chased Mahomes around , he ran for over 400 yards before throwing the ball or taking a sack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to be petty and say "F you" to Lynch and Shanahan crying about not dressing six QBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a fun player to watch with great twitch. Just when someone says he doesn’t have "breakaway” speed, that’s going to draw attention. Because it’s wrong. He’s also just a rookie. He could be a nice fantasy guy next year. Too bad AR likes to hold RB’s back. He kind of reminds me of a smaller but quicker Marion Barber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanMeanGM Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I think it's wild how many people (not necessarily here) have the take that this Super Bowl win would mean more than 2017. I'm guessing youth has to play into this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd have more wins than half the league It's like getting into the club and then raising up in the ranks lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The season ended the moment Carson Wentz tore his ACL Lost the starting kicker early, and signed a guy off a practice squad who was money. Lost Darren Sproles in September. Lost special teams captain Chris Maragos in early October. Lost staring MLB Jordan Hicks and LT Jason Peters in late October. Even as the #1 seed with homefield advantage, underdog in every playoff game. Nick Foles put a savage beating on the #1 defense in the NFL in the NFCCG. Nick Foles cemented his legend status going toe to toe with the GOAT in the Super Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
