Why the fuck would they plan to play close games instead of comfortably coasting to an easy 10+ pt victory?
That's a really, really retarded strategy.

He's saying they save their best plays for the playoffs. They aren't putting anything new on tape during the regular season. Look at the last two Super Bowls. They won against Philly using a play they never ran before. Scored a TD, then flipped it and ran out of a different formation on the opposite side and scored again. THen, the next Super Bowl, they ran another variant of that play to score a TD against SF after not running it the entire season. They aren't putting that play on tape trying to score against the Panthers in the 2nd quarter of week 12. They run the same boring shit and if they don't get in, they take three points.

Now, the Chiefs have their problems, and can't do whatever they want, whenever they want, but if you think they aren't holding something back, you are mistaken. Reid is not MCDC, keeping the hammer down even when he's up 3 scores. And while MCDC's style is way more fun to watch, it's much less likely to win the SB.

I hope they lose their first playoff game by 20 points

I'm trying to give Mayo a chance as a HC but I don't get why he's gotta be a dick head everytime he's behind a mic.

Has there been no media training in NE over the years? It seems like every coach from the Belichick tree thinks they can be dickheads without earning those stripes first.

Hmm, all he said was "You said it, I didn't."

Kind of sounds like him just avoiding the question entirely, unless I'm misinterpreting things?

You said it, I didn't often means you agree. Hes talking about the job his OC is doing. He threw his OC under the bus as the tweet says.

It's not hard to use coach speak of something like "Our guy called the best play he felt for that situation. We will look at the film and make adjustments to situational football as needed".

I'm gonna assume the best corners don't even make that list because nobody throws at them. Surtain types.

Surtain is at 43 targets.... so just missed the cutoff.

However, Surtain has given up a 60.5% completion percentage. 26 completions and 2 TDs.

Wiggins has given a 47.8% completion percentage. 22 completions and 0 TDs.

(not saying Wiggins is better... he's not yet. He's given up almost 100 more yards on 4 less catches)

Got it
Pat did give up a couple plays this year, does have 4 picks though(wiggins got any picks?)

Is this man coverage only stat? Because he is almost always in Man on Man(well at least he was until Riley Moss got hurt and vance Joseph had to stop bringing the house every other play)

I don't know wiggins much but I doubt he will end up being better than Pat, that would be an impressive. He looks to be a little less long and maybe 15-20lbs lighter? Is Wiggins a physical sure tackler? Pat doesn't ever miss a tackle.

Atlanta calls the most pussy game I have seen in years

Seemingly have no interest in finishing

Players lose confidence with this type of coaching

Cousins is struggling but let him at least throw a few times per quarter lol
