Nice analysis!!
-Can our banged up DL generate a pass rush without of two starting DE's?
-Yes, our kicker can take the day off, unless it's to win the game. FG's won't get it done against an explosive offense like the Chiefs.
-With Clark/Jones now back and the addition of Ingram, they have a very good pass rush and might not need to blitz too often.
-I would really consider putting Collins in at LG if Tyron returns.
-Game is all about time of possession and finishing drives in the redzone with TD's.
- Not me,.. i'm more for putting my 2nd best OT, at RT. and have Steele handy as a swing tackle.
- And just as Collins has not had game rep at LT, he would gonna take some time re-learning the OG role.
And i've not heard
latest updates or reports that Collins is still taking reps at OG in practice
I'm hoping Collins continues to play his way back to play shape and form at RT, and game- playing him is the only way to do this.
- Found it interesting that Philibin sub McGovern in at RG and C, ..instead of LG.
- For someone who the McClay scouts thought had a 2nd round grade on, he's continues to be an afterthought as a possible Williams replacement ?
- Steele did not have a Frank Clark or Melvin Ingram to go against with ATL,. with a loud buzzy Chiefs crowd.
- i think this game will be about who/which teams defense can and will make the crucial defensive stops, and momentum swinging plays and stops.
And who avoids the killer mistakes (ala turnovers, penalties)
- Chiefs will try to make us one dimensional - stop our run game, so they can peel off on Dak. vs pass rush.
- KC has probably the loudest stadium in the NFL - is there any other that competes with that ?
- Signature game opponent and importance is reminiscance of the Bucs season opening game
- except Mahomes is the best in NFL at scrambling, Matty Ice was an statue, Mahomes will not be. .
