DigInBoys Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Massive game coming up this Sunday. Arguably the top offense/defense going against each other.....thoughts, analysis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N4L Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 It's the fastest offense in the NFL vs the fastest defense in the NFL. Crazy amounts of speed on the field at one time. I predict mahomes throws his first interception, and that it gets ran back for a touchdown. My money is on telvin Smith to be the guy. It will be one of those times where mahomes is flushed from the pocket and trys to throw across the middle and telvin undercuts it. I think Andy Reid will come up with ways to put immense pressure on the jags zone concepts. He will send 4 guys vertical against their cover three and I think he will do some overload combo routes to one side of the field that will have some guys covering air while other defenders will have to choose between different guys to cover. The niners killed the jags last year with misdirection and I think the jet sweeps going one way with a screen the other way or an off tackle power to the other side will be effective. All of that motion and misdirection will be an attempt to slow the jags linebackers down. I expect Ramsey to be shadowing kelce for a large part of the game. Last week Reid showed that he can stick to the run game, I expect him to try to establish the run early as a way to open up the back end and soften up the jags zone with play action later on I also think the cheifs defense will force a turnover or two as well. Maybe a sack fumble. I liked what their edge rushers did last week and I think their secondary has been playing better as the season has gone on. I'm glad my team isn't playing at the same time so that I will be able to watch this one. It's going to be an absolute dog fight, and I actually anticipate a much higher scoring game than people might expect. Going to be a lot of fun.

Hunter2_1 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Chiefs are on a shorter week? JAX defense is very quick, but I actually think Mahomes' decision making and release is even quicker. I believe he'll put points up, again. Unfortunately for them, their D cannot tip the balance in their favor, and both JAX' defense and offense will do just about enough to win. If Bortles plays like he did vs us, then it may even be a comfortable victory. However, an interesting sub plot, Chiefs massacred LAC and SF's defenses. Those two defenses are run by former Jaguars head coach Gus Bradley and former Jaguars linebacker coach Robert Salah. Both run defenses very similar to what the Jaguars run under defensive coordinator Todd Wash, who was the coordinator under Bradley. I still think JAX will have too much though. J - 24 KC - 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ET80 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Think this will go down as the game of the year - KC is tough at home in off years, so that crowd will probably set another noise record this week. But that Jags D feeds off of that animosity, they're the villain and they LOVE it. Jags, 23-20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaguarCrazy2832 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I honestly think there are a wide range of outcomes. Our defense is good enough to stop them but their offense is good enough to take a 7 yard catch 70 for a score at any time. They/We are both incredibly quick. Missing tackles, turnovers and penalties will likely be the difference maker. I do think we can score on their defense. I think its just as likely we win by 20 and we lose by 20. Just depends on how the matchups play out, how Mahomes handles his biggest test in his career and which Blake Bortles shows up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centurion Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I think because the Chiefs are likely gonna be flat after a short week following a super emotional game, the Jaguars win a low-scoring game. Jacksonville is a team you can't afford to be flat against. Plus with the Pats next week, bit of a tough spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedGold Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Suppose to rain all weekend in KC. We’ll see if that slows the speed down on both sides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berlin calling Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 its not about KCs O against Jax D, its about Jags O against that poor excuse of a defense the Chiefs put on the field. Jags easily, they should have no problem to match whatever Mahomes is able to put on the board imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nozizaki Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Last season the Jags struggled on the road, both on offense and defense. This season I expect this massively matured team to play better. That said, the Jags struggled defensively against QBs with quick releases (Jimmy G, Tom Brady). This game could go either way, but I'll take the Jags, who I think are the better overall team. Something like 20-17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t stand Tyreek Hill but Ramsey constantly saying Hill isn’t a WR during his press conference was really irking me. Hope Hill has a billion yards in this game.

Elky Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 We've seen this time after time: the dominant defense always beats the fast, finesse offense. I put 9 confidence points on JAX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude went in the media before Jalen and said "He's alright, I hope he presses me". Not sure what he was expecting. Jalen isn't going to be quiet if someone talks at him.
