Message: [QUOTE="OrangeFoo, post: 4141885, member: 210"] So after 24 hours of reflecting on the game, my thoughts are this: [LIST] [*]We play any other QB but Mahomes that day and it's a complete blowout. The scheme worked the way it was intended 90% of the game, but Mahomes was playing at a super-human level that only him and Josh can reach. I take my hat off to him [*]Reid out schemed our D by sucking in the LB's with short routes and having Tyreke run the intermediate cross across the field right behind them. With a normal player that tactic won't work too often because the safeties will blow him up. But Tyreke was also playing at a super-human level that I don't think anyone has ever reached other than maybe be prime time or Barry Sanders in the peak of their careers. I take my hat off to him [*]The last 13 seconds and the OT... that's on the coaching staff. They stuck to their scheme w/o accounting for game situations. They basically had one path to scoring and we gave it to them... if the coaches or players had done even one thing different its ballgame. [*]The future... I would keep Frazier if he doesn't get gigs somewhere else. The D works against non-superhuman talent. [*]I know it's insane to say that I don't care if Daboll leaves or goes coming off the last two games... but the dude makes some head scratching decisions and really overthinks things. My hope is Dorsey can step up in his place and we don't miss a drum beat but it's definitely a risk [*]Offseason priorities - Interior oline probably needs a couple of dudes, especially if Morse retires or gets another concussion. Another DB or two...we desperately need to move away from Levi Wallace and we have Tre coming off an ACL. I'm torn on the LBs - against any other team that game is a blow out because of the D... I would roll it back w/ Edmunds and Milano and maybe get another impact player to back them up besides Klein. [*]I'll address DE by itself because its the one area where the team has invested but the results are not there. This team needs two impact DEs and we don't have them. Not sure how this gets fixed w/ the resources there. Maybe we move Basham inside and cut AJ? [/LIST] Am I sad over the game? Yes? Am I going to jump out the window? No? Mistakes happen... its life. Yes those 13 seconds suck, but you can also got to some really crappy play calling on a few drives where if Daboll didn't call two runs in a row or fall in love with the Josh keeper, or threw a damn screen pass or a bubble screen to Dggs the drive would have been extended and there wouldn't have been 13 seconds left.
