    They done that by taking 55 drop backs. Anytime a team takes 55 drop backs, they're going to get to 300 yards. That's only 6 yards per attempt, which is not bad at all ... especially with Thomas and Sanders being the guys we were defending.

    They went over 86% pass in their play selection. If a team is willing to go 86% to 14% in a play selection for the game, I'd be more than willing to accept that ... makes everything much easier on defense. And if they go 86% pass then giving up a 300 yard passing day isn't a bad look on our defense, it's expected ... 85% run and you can expect 150-200 rush yards, that's absolutely acceptable.

    I'm not too worried about what the Chiefs do well. More worried about how the Titans play. If the offense can get going and defense plays decent again, I think the Chiefs can be beat. Mistake free football will be the key to this game.

    Thanks for this. I wanted to hit the "informative" button but something is wrong and the rating buttons are missing over here.

    It will be a tough game. But really playing in Arrowhead is a tough enough stadium.

    Mariota has been shredding since week 5 and went up against the best defense in the NFL and had a "meh" game. He threw the ball away when needed, didn't force throws (except one), and had a couple drops by his guys. Another game with 0 turnovers. Who cares what Dak or Winston or doing anyway? We won.

    No doubt but we went into KC two years ago on opening day with half the team we have now and won. Won't be easy but it can be done.

    You don't play against stadiums, you play against teams. The only factor a stadium produces is noise, and I don't think MM audibles, at least vocally. More with gestures.

    We also lit up the Bucs opening day. Early on some teams don't have it together. By the end of the year it's the usual suspects smelling playoffs.
