evilpimp972 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Williams averaged 3yds per carry vs the pats and people are saying they didnt miss hunt? Better running game = more time of possession = no first half shutdown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plat2 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 He would have helped a little bit but I think Belichick comes up with a gameplan to shut him down, the defense lost them that game not the offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just mad we didn't win that coin toss, Mahomes would've had a great shot at finishing off his maestro performance against Belichick and Brady. You mean the performance where he put up 7 points in 3 quarters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NFL_Announcer Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 31st ranked defenses do not win Championships. The Rams or Saints would've absolutely destroyed them had they beat a massively weak AFC playoff lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rams or Saints would've absolutely destroyed them had they beat a massively weak AFC playoff lineup. This. Put this way, we had the 4 top ranked offenses in points in the conference title games. The 4th best one ended up winning the Super Bowl. They largely did because they had far and away the best defense of 4 despite the least dynamic offense of the 4. It took the two top ranked offenses in the league completely out of their element. Also this thread is largely underselling the Rams based off their Super Bowl performance against a team that played phenomenal defense in the playoffs. The Patriots basically shut down the Cheifs for entire halfs the two times they played. They held up the whole game against the Rams. The Chiefs showed no ability to contain the Rams at any point in their first match up. If anything, the Rams defense was playing a lot better come playoff time and held the Saints and the Patriots (both the 3 and 4 ranked offenses) to very respectable scores. The Chiefs were a great offensive team but by the final 4 they were basically playing with fire as they were going up against too many offenses they couldn't hope to slow down. That's just the unforunate reality. I think everyone knew that the Chiefs defense was so bad that it was going to resurface as an issue in the playoffs. It's very easy to ignore a fundamental flaw like that when you face more average to bad teams in the regular season. The Chiefs played 5 teams that made the playoffs during the regular season. The Patriots, the Rams, the Seahwaks, and the Chargers twice. They went 1-4 with the win being split vs the Chargers. So they had a loss against every playoff team they went up against. That's not a mistake. That's an unbalanced team that was overlooked because the teams complete enough to capitalize on their weakness were fewer and further between in the regular season but were abundant in the playoffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an unbalanced team that was overlooked because the teams complete enough to capitalize on their weakness were fewer and further between in the regular season but were abundant in the playoffs We also had victories against the Ravens and Colts. 2-4 in the regular season against playoff teams, 3-5 overall. Not nearly as damning as 1-4. And we had very close matchups in all of those losses. I don't think we would've won with Hunt, because lacking Hunt was never the problem, but you talk as though we weren't a contender and that just isn't accurate. We were a play or two away from wins against LAC, the Pats both times, and the Rams. We had our flaw, but our strength was good enough we were still capable of winning those last two games.
