The KC Game Strategy

[Rayman70]

Their O line is not good. We need pressure to keep him moving around and get him rattled.

Yep and I assure you this, Reid will have a lot of check downs called . Like delayed RB screens to Pacheco. Using our aggression against us. Tightend screens etc. We better be well prepared or we could look foolish. KC is like a cornered animal... wounded and desperate. If they lose its season over. I expect them to play smart and physical today. We better match them. This game will tell us more about where this team is and where we are going this year. Forget winning or losing, I'm watching this game to gage if we are getting better still. I'm more looking to 2026.

 

[Rayman70]

We can get pressure up the middle. The DEs just need to stop Mahomes from rolling out of the pocket. He's terrible going backwards and great if he can move side to side. The opposite of Lamar.

Yip. All QBs hate middle pressure. Flus will be tested

 

[blueblood70]

Bring in Luepke to block. We really only throw the ball to Pickens, CD and Ferguson for the most part anyway.

Luepke is a good receiver out of the back field and not easy to tackle.

Lots of 21 personnel I think would give Dak time and cause problems for them.

Turpin is basically just a decoy.

I think they should throw a little more eye formation and use a fullback more today and throw Kansas City off a little bit He can stay in the help block You don't have to have a heavy tight end blocking scheme if you use your back and or your full back they don't know which ones going to get the ball or stay in the block or both end up blocking it ends up being a pass play if you keep Prescott under center...

So yeah I mean they paid the full back he's probably our second best tight end option for targets they need to bring them in more I don't want to see a single snap on special teams or Offense from ScoonMaker...

Too many times and it's probably an accident he gets left on an island with a good pass rusher or I saw and I know it wasn't super close but him as a edge blocker on the field goals that last game winning field goal was awfully close to being blocked because of him...

Like I said it wasn't super close but you never know if that operation would have been slightly off on the snap and hold it would have been blocked i'm sick of seeing him on the field ford is better hunter is better just use your better players and start doing like you did with Tober it's time to sit Schoonmaker..

Don't be active the rest of the year unless we have a rash of injuries I'd rather see them bring up Fairweather,

what happened to him he was like the practice squad preseason best tight end and we got that junk being brought to games.ughh.

KC will focus on getting the run game going including the short pass/screens. If Dallas's DL plays gap control they'll be in the game. If they press too hard, lose control, mahomie will eat them alive.

Rather start Thomas this week than Guyton.

They better give him a lot of help.

 

[blueblood70]

That's been the Rams strategy. Stafford is getting amazing protection. Plus he's probably the most accurate QB in the game right now.

Well that's the thing i'm not sure if you're a Rams fan but I'm not but I do pay attention to Matthew Staffords MVP numbers I don't watch their games I don't know how they accomplishing it but the Cowboys tackles have been less than stellar we're not getting any amazing protection he is doing this with a lot of pressure and people don't respect that enough they don't see that there are games he can be sacked 5 times easily and when you only get sacked once that's the quarterback getting the ball out or holding it on till the last minute and taking the hit but completing the pass that's Prescott he don't get enough credit for that at all...

Man's having a great year avoiding sacks but taking a lot of hits or having to move off his spot and then throw on the run and then when it's not perfect he gets criticized but they don't realize how much pressure he's really been under our tackles have been less than amazing that's for damn sure..

The Chiefs’ defense is top ten, but…

They’re terrible defending play action passing. Last in the league, in fact. Guess who the most efficient play action quarterback is?

Our very own Rayne Dakota.

Regarding the Chiefs’ offense, it’s also elite. Like all great quarterbacks, Mahomes only really struggles when he’s being pressured with nowhere to step up. The Cowboys are uniquely suited to apply this kind of pressure.

Winning will be difficult, but there are places the Cowboys can attack.

Got to be able to run the ball to make play action work.

 

[Rayman70]

They better give him a lot of help.

Yep. I hope.

 

[Rayman70]

KC will focus on getting the run game going including the short pass/screens. If Dallas's DL plays gap control they'll be in the game. If they press too hard, lose control, mahomie will eat them alive.

This is my fear, the latter.

 

[Whirlwin]

This isn’t the game to play man.. #15 will carve us up like a thanksgiving turkey if they do. This is the game to play nothing but zone and offer up some simulated blitzes. If they don’t we lose this game.. the chiefs are very beatable if the approach is right. Zone! Zone! Zone!

Patrick carves up zone defense

 

[Whirlwin]

On offense, KC will likely take away Pickens and force the Dak to CD and Ferg connection. CD better get his head right.

That would be a big mistake for them

 

[ThaTruth2483]

Tens of millions of people will be watching, along with a lot of Taylor Swift fans.
I cant even imagine how far the refs will go to get the Chiefs into the playoffs.
Prepare for the Cowboys to have 15 penalties for 150 yards.

Shout out to Mr Davis and his protege Mr Jones Sr.

Go Cowboys!

- This isn't the game to play zone either ... Mahomes is more effect vs zone than he is vs man .. Rice & Kelcie feasted on zone soverages.. they will nickel & dime move chains us death.

- the big key vs Mahomes is pressure in the trenches,.. it's been suggested (al Tony Romo) that MAhomes is getting too ansy in the pocket and rushing his read progressions too early,
leading to missed open targets

- And despite 4.2 speed at WRs in Xavier & Thorton, the Chiefs are not connecting in deep bombs plays as they did in the Tyrek Hill dayz. Mahomes isnt what he used to be in that area.

 

[DripTooHard]

That would be a big mistake for them

They could double both Pickens and Lamb, and that means 7 in the box and Ferg/Javonte time.

 

[Pipelayer72]

Defense and special teams will decide the outcome.

 

[Shinaoi]

I’m more worried about the tight end play from Kansas City than I am the deep threat

 

[Chasing6]

I would love for us to get more physical this time of the year with Luepke in I-formation.

No, I'm not a Rams fan. I am a football fan though. And our oline is good. Stafford doesn't have the weapons Dak does either. But I wasn't blaming Dak for anything with that post. You're seeing ghosts.

I think the Chiefs will do what they do but will try to use our aggression to beat ourselves. We cannot beat ourselves. Meaning, don't get taunting flags, late hits, crap like that. KC is great at getting the refs to see things there way each week. We can't feed the beast tomorrow. Chiefs don't need any help. I believe they are going to let our own emotion work against us. We must remain calm cool , collected. Do what we do. That's my take. Play in control. Do not let them dictate terms.

I don't trust Eberflus. He will probably revert to playing his stupid zone scheme that allows receivers to run wide open underneath. If that happens, we are going to lose this game.

We must pressure Mahomes at all costs. Mix in blitzes and man-to-man coverage. I don't get why a coach like him is so fixated on running so many zone schemes.
