Shanedorf Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 1 hour ago, TitanSlim said: Let me take you back to 2011 real quick. In case you forgot, there was this team with an explosive offense with weapons all over the field. They were led by a young QB, who was playing QB as well as anyone had seen. This team averaged 35.0 PPG during the season. Once the playoffs rolled around they had a rematch against a team they previous had beaten 38-35 on the road. At home with their offense. How can they be stopped? No way they would lose. They were 8.0 point favorites. Well, they did ended up losing at home as the heavy favorites, 37-20. By now, you probably realize I'm talking about that 15-1 Packers team. I really only bring this up because, this Chiefs squad reminds me of that 2011 Packers. At the end of the day, that game/team will have no affect on what happens on Sunday. However, it is interesting to compare the similar situations with the teams involved. The 2011 Packers offense was indeed a juggernaut, but that defense had more holes than a block of Swiss cheese Your overall point stands: there are plenty of instances of the top offenses getting shut down in the playoffs... including the Reid -coached Eagles in 2002 They had the number 4 offense, but could only muster 10 pts in a loss to the Bucs in the NFCCG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calamity_Cometh Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Titans need a heavy dose of Henry to keep the ball away from Mahomes. Simple answer, but true. He's gonna need 28 or more carries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hill might still be feeling undeafeatable because of the texans game though but Clark I'm not sure about the titans have a great punter, maybe he will get some recognition for this game helping with field position. With Mahomes, the chiefs can make up those extra yards easier than anyone else, but it still takes a few more possessions which also could lead to To eventually.

Titans aren't getting the recognition for what they have done other than Henry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hill's wasn't bad if you read the full quote. More of a "we got confidence against any opponent" type of quote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I weather the clip, but still don't see why players go that route. Just win the game and let the tape do the talking. Maybe hill could have also mentioned that the texans defence was not good, which always helps - might as well give the other team some credit for your success Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember The Oilers Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Tennessee is on a historic run in a match up in which the Cheifs are looked as a historic team. The Cheifs should be a fav, but I wouldn't talk about blowouts or getting out to a big early lead. The Titans beating the #1 offence and defence on the road tells me they are tested and prepared, but this is a different match up with KC. The Titans present some matchup issues with the Cheifs, but they won't panic like the Ravens and Texans did last weekend. Instead, this weekend is a showcase of 2 mentally tough teams. It is also the ultimate strength vs. speed match up we've seen in awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rivers Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 24 minutes ago, TitanLegend said: that's a good chart. I remembered how early the season the chiefs had problems on defence, perhaps it was taking them time to get used to their new DC and scheme. As you pointed out, it turns out they had an easier schedule in this area of rush offences. Looks like the Rams had another reason to not be able to make a late run to make the playoffs btw, where did you get this chart? Good info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
