Mahomes and Reid elite closers, set another record
The Chiefs have won six consecutive games by fewer than 7 points. That's an NFL record to you and me, Rusty. And the last 5 games is a 2015 Royals bullpen situation.
The six began with CAR game where the offense was unable to seal the deal after getting the ball at midfield at 1;53. Three and out, punting to the CAR 9 with 1:26 left and no timeouts. The defense rose to the occasion. But in the last 5 games Andy and GOAT have put together impressive, non-because Chiefs days, game killing drives. Andy has become clock wizard with Mahomes. So the next time the Chiefs need to kill the clock, just chill baby chill. Here they are for your remembering pleasure: LV 7 plays 75 yards 1:15 TD 35-31 TB 8 plays 33 yards 4:10 end of game DEN 10 plays 55 yards 5:03 FG 22-16 MIA 10 plays 47 yards 3:07 FG 33-27 NO 7 plays 34 yards 2:06 end of game |

Definitely elite. Mahomes has been magic burning time and getting points.

Also, I believe another record fell today. I think its the first time we went undefeated on the road in a season (heard it mentioned today)

It's also the first time any team in history has 5 road wins in a single season against teams that finished above 500, it could move to 6 depends on the Raiders.

It's been great. And the best part is that Andy hasn't been just old school running the ball to take more time off. He trusts Mahomes to make the plays to move the chains. It's aggressive, and it's successful.

Reid called a great game. Probably the best playcalling of any game this season. I can't think of a single play in today's game that I questioned. That's elite level coaching. Of course helps having Mahomes.

With our poor offensive line play, Reid once again called a majority of passing plays that did not have short check downs or shallow crosses, etc. He has developed a habit of calling plays with routes that take longer than 2.5 seconds to develop, forcing Mahomes to hold onto the ball longer than 2.5 seconds. The offensive line is a patchwork of 2nd and 3rd stringers, and Reid calls plays like we have Roaf, Waters, Wiegmann, Shields, and Tait out there. Sent from my GM1915 using Tapatalk |

I can't agree with you. He knows the OL is backups of backups and yet he called a ton of deep routes and plays that take forever to develop. It got more frustrating to watch because the Saints D made it clear they were sticking with the double high safeties. The reverses were especially terrible choices against a fast defense too. Chiefs had success rushing the ball and should have gone to the run more often early to wear down that defense and make shit easy for the garbage OL.

Reid still takes his foot off the gas a bit too early sometimes and makes games closer than they should be...

This is where you can tell which analysts and “experts” actually watch the Chiefs play and which ones just glance over the box score. There is a HUGE difference between winning on the final play of the game and having a huge lead then taking your foot off the gas. Both games might have the same margin of victory, but both tell very different stories. I think we all know that we won’t lay off the gas in the playoffs until the game is well in hand. Reid is perfectly fine with a bunch of close wins in the regular season. He doesn’t run the score up like Baltimore, but it would be fun to see him do it a few times.

I know he's known as a nice guy and he doesn't want to run the score up but damn. While I do wish he would have more of a "step on your throat" mentality it's also kind of pointless to bitch when we are the defending champions. |

You know what happens when he doesn't take his foot off the gas? Mahomes gets crushed and fumbles the ball because our decimated OL can't hold back an elite pass rush. Be careful what you wish for.
