Running QBs don't win super bowls.

Having Patrick Mahomes doesn't hurt, either.

It doesn't, but a couple of TDs came on plays any QB should have been able to compete. The play-calls got the receivers wide open.

It's impressive what the Chiefs did and did so by replacing one of the best WRs in the league. That was a masterful 2nd half of offensive play calling. The motion used and different looks really made this difficult for the Eagles today. I hope the Cowboys were watching and took note of some of these plays.

We scored 40 vs Philly with Dak.

IF, Dak can clean up some of his dumb throws we will have a shot if the D picks up a few key pieces!

The biggest takeaway?

Bill Burr was right.

Can we be brutally honest? Hurts was why Philly lost. The self inflicted fumble was awful. Reid and Mahomes then do what they do AFTER THAT.

I'd say the Philly defense is the reason they lost. No pass rush and mahomes cut through them like butter. Didn't seem like the fumble made much difference as they were still up by 10 going to half.

Coaching on offense matters. Anyone who watched what the Cheifs did tonight can see the night and day difference between that and whatever Kellen tries to do. You don't need a complicated offense just one that you run well and gets players open. You don't need elite weapons. Hopefully Big Mike took some notes tonight.

Andy Reid is just an offensive mastermind, the way he uses motion to get the DBs to "switch" which guy they are covering and then do an immediate reverse pattern with the same motion guy while the two DBs are still switching resulting in wide open TDs not once but twice!!!

Dam, that level of play design is just off the charts.

My takeaway is that you need elite QB play on the biggest stage. Dakota will never sniff that kind of play.

Well I somewhat agree but as has been said many times, alot worse QBs have won the Superbowl. So if you can't find someone like Mahomes (and Dak isn't even in the same universe), you have to build your team accordingly. Eagles were close.

But no matter what the Jones boys do, I hope they spend at least one high draft pick on QBs every year from now on. The strategy of getting in cheap on that position has clearly failed for over 20 years now.

He’s more accurate with a way better arm than dak.

In most cases it is very advantageous to have elite QB play. But Jalen Hurts is not elite, and the Chiefs were very fortunate to win that game. It can be done with a QB that isn't elite, you just have to build around your QBs strengths. Just like the Eagles did.

Dak ain’t doing what Mahomes did with one leg and pressure on him all day

Nah. Dak only accomplished what he did the year right after having his leg broken at a 90° angle pointing outwards from his lower leg and also suffering ligament damage and a compound fracture with a skin protruding bone where it was slim he would be able to continue playing football, much less be able to run or walk normal on his leg ever again.

Year. Team. YDS. TD. INT. Rating

2021. DAL. 4,449. 37. 10. 104.2

I truly wonder if Mahomes or any other QB would have been able to accomplish all Dak did less than a year right after suffering such a horrible and potentially career-ending injury.

Lol. "Coaching matters," then taking a shot at the coach who was second only to that team in production over 4 years with Dak freaking Prescott at QB.

Exactly,

But there is something to say about the Chief's route tree. They had some success running plays you don't see the Cowboys running.

That's why I think we need to add an offensive weapon like Abinikanda, a WR, and then go all defense in the draft.

Ah yes, 2021.

2021 mimicked 2022 in so many ways offensively.

Dak got injured early in the season and had no weapons or good coaching around him in 2022. The team overachieved, yet still ended up with back-to-back 12 - 5 seasons, finally won an away playoff game in 30 years and advanced further in the playoffs this year with much less than last year.

But you go ahead and keep complaining.

The hype and specital is now above the game.

This is the biggest take away, the way they replace Tyreek Hill vs the way we replaced Cooper:

KC
JuJu in the super bowl 7 rec for 52 yards
Toney a touchdown and a 65 yard punt return in super bowl
Sky Moore a touchdown in super bowl
MVS AFCCG 6 rec for 116 yards 1 td no catches in super bowl

Cowboys

James Washington 1 target 0 rec on the year
Jalen Tolbert 2 rec 12 yards on the year
TY 7 rec for 121 on the year
Dennis Houston 2rec for 16 yards on the year

Mahomes is great but the KC brought in more proven and talented wrs to replace Tyreek Hill than the Cowboys did to replace Amari Cooper. The guys they brought in made a difference yesterday and they weren't there they may not be World Champions.

Hurts fumble would be the easy thing to blame the eagles loss on but they were ahead and overcame that.
Their defense in the second half flat out could stop nothing That's what lost in the game they could not get a stop.

Got to hand it to Andy Reid use the same play on the goal line twice and just out coach them.

someone needs to watch that game all offseason and study clock management. It was perfect.

It helps to have a coach who calls plays that are needed when they are needed. Kellen Moore calls plays like he his head up his butt.

well, we have those 4 WR 10 yard curls....hmmmm come on now
