If the Browns ran every play with Chubb and never ever passed the ball, I think they win that game. Kitchen's time-out/challenge/penalty/whatever the gently caress that was was terrible decision making. If he'd just let the next play run, they had an easy touchdown.
I figured this was a trap game for Seattle, so I'm glad they came out with the win, but the run defense was :stare:

Remember when KC downgrading on defensive talent and grabbing a worse DC was supposed to help them fix the defense

I'm still not sure this is definitively the case. I mean it is, but going on what we knew at the time I'm not sure. I'm also not sure (especially in Ford's case) they'd be any better if they'd kept everything the same. It's mainly a matter of firing a bad DC and hiring another bad DC and changing the roster.

Obviously they should have kept one of Ford or Houston, but getting rid of Berry for Mathieu is an upgrade just based on Mathieu playing. The biggest problem is Frank Clark being trash after being very good, which would have been hard to see coming and is the worst bet Brett Veach has made until proven otherwise.

It appears that the worst thing long term about all this will be the Chiefs will either let Chris Jones walk or be tying up 200 million in a bad defensive line. Letting him walk makes sense when you put it like that, but he's by far the best defensive player the Chiefs have. Oh and he'll be hobbled for quite a while.

And the thing about Jones is that, as good of a pass rusher as he is, he's flat out awful as a run defender. And you kinda need a DT to be able to do things against the run.

that being said I don't think Spags is that much worse a DC than Sutton was, if at all. The Chiefs just kind of stink all around on D and trading for Clark was a huge mistake.

I think at this point, you gotta look at Andy Reid.

He's a good coach, but I don't think he's putting out his best effort this year. The Chiefs had the showings of a not spectacular, but at least a solid enough Defensive unit to get forward.

This Defense has gone in reverse instead and the Offense is right along with them. It's easy to blame Spagnuolo, and he's not good, but poo poo maybe look at the guy that's doing a 4:1 pass run ratio with a QB that has a gimpy ankle.

This isn't a fire Andy Reid post, but heck I really don't know what they're going to do.

It's not like we have any real running game to speak of, but that still doesn't make what's going on while Mahomes is hurt alright. If we lose to the Broncos we should sit Mahomes until he's healthy as it's becoming clear that we can't win games while he isn't and he's just going to end up actually hurt behind that line. That's obviously never going to happen though, so I guess start firing people?

They ran what, 11 times in a game that was never out of reach? There aren't any attempts to get it going.

The Defense sucked before the injuries and I don't think Andy's hand is too injured to flip his Denny's menu to the running plays.

They really badly miss Eric Fisher more than anything else on offense, I think. He's a solid LT in a league where that's hard to come by and obviously a huge sight better than Cam Erving, who's only really adequate in spot duty. I do agree that the Chiefs probably should run the ball more, since Mahomes isn't 100%. But their o-line is mostly just kind of junky right now from injuries and your best bet is for them to get healthy by December.

Yeah they certainly miss Fisher and Cam Erving is just bad. At this point I really wouldn't mind if Pat went Peyton and just called his own plays and did his own thing.

Not to be confused with poptartin
Go figure, the Browns stick with Hue to show everyone they are patient and not reactionary with their coaches, to entice someone good to come along, and they end up with loving Freddie Kitchens. Now we're stuck with this guy for at least a year or two until we let a ton of our rookie contracts expire, and then have to sign everyone back for $$$$.

The curse never ends.

He took a timeout on a play that would've given them a TD to challenge a play that he then lost. The next play the Browns turned over on downs. It was at the goal line.

The play he stopped to challenge was also the EXACT loving play he ran right after. The first time it was going to be a loving TD.

Kitchens is the dumbest fucker.
