Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs roar back to life vs. Ravens | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

ALL RIGHT. UH, NO NO, NO JFK. YOU’RE FUNNY. YOU CAN’T SEE. SHE’S WE’RE WANTED TO GO INTO YESTERDAY’S GAME AGAINST THE BALTIMORE RAVENS AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE CHIEFS IS THE CHIEFS AGAIN, RIGHT? THEY OPEN IT UP AND LOOK I DON’T KNOW WHAT’S MORE IMPORTANT TO YOU, THE CHIEFS REDISCOVERING, THEIR GROOVE OR THE RAVENS LOOKING COMPLETELY LOST. I, YOU KNOW I THINK IT’S I I THINK A MORE AMAZING BY THE RAVENS I THINK I AM. AS MUCH AS WE KNOW, THE CHIEFS ARE GREAT AND WE HAVEN’T SEEN MAHOMES STRUGGLE AND THE TEAM STRUGGLE LIKE THIS. I I KNEW THEY’D FIGURE IT OUT TO A DEGREE, RIGHT? IT WASN’T GOING TO ALWAYS LOOK SO UGLY. BALTIMORE IS SHOCKING. I MEAN, IT’S SHOCKING. THE FACT THAT THEY COULDN’T REALLY RUN THE BALL YESTERDAY WHEN THEY WANTED TO WITH DERRICK HENRY, THAT’S CONCERNING. UH, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, THE BIG THING. YEAH, THEIR DEFENSE. AND HOW IT’S LOOKED HERE TO START THE SEASON. DEFINITELY CONCERNING ON THAT END. IT REALLY IS AND AND TO THE POINT TO WHERE IT GETS SO CONCERNING YOU JUST GO, I KNOW THEY REBOUNDED LAST YEAR BUT MAN, HOW ARE THEY GOING TO DO IT HERE? WHAT WHAT’S GOING TO BE? THE CHANGE MABUK, NOT BEING IN THEIR TRAVIS JONES, NOT BEING IN THERE. I MEAN, THEY, THEY JUST HAVE SEEMED LIKE A DIFFERENT FOOTBALL TEAM, LET ALONE THEY CAN’T COVER ANYBODY DOWN THE FIELD IN THE PASSING GAME AS WE SAW. SO YEAH, I THINK THE RAVENS ARE MORE SHOCKING TO ME. YOU FEEL THE SAME WAY I DO. I I’M JUST ENVISIONING ALL THE EMAILS. I’M GOING TO GET FROM THE CHIEFS FANS WHO ARE MAD THAT WE AREN’T GIVING THE CHIEFS, THEIR FLOWERS. SO LET’S DO THAT BEFORE WE BEFORE WE GO ALL IN ON THE RAVENS BECAUSE IT’S ALWAYS MORE FUN. I THINK IT’S MORE COMPELLING. IT’S MORE INTERESTING TO TRY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT WENT WRONG WITH THE TEAM THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO PLAY. WELL, THEN, WHAT WENT RIGHT WITH A TEAM THAT HASN’T BEEN PLAYING WELL, BUT WE EXPECTED THEM TO PLAY WELL. AND PATRICK MAHOMES 4 TOUCHDOWN PERFORMANCE, HE HAD GONE. I THINK IT WAS I DON’T THINK HE’D EVER GONE 4 GAMES IN A ROW IN HIS CAREER. WITH ONLY 1 TOUCHDOWN PASS, HE HAD 1 1 AND 1 THIS YEAR HE EXPLODED FOR 4 YESTERDAY, 25 FOR 37 240 YARDS, 270 YARDS, EXCUSE ME, AND NO PICKS AND YOU SEE THE BALL GETS SPREAD AROUND 2 9 DIFFERENT GUYS? YEAH, THAT’S THE MAHOMES RIGHT? THAT WERE USED TO SEEING. YEAH. WHY DO YOU THINK IT WORKED YESTERDAY? WAS IT SIMPLY A MATTER OF? HE HAD ENOUGH TIME TO OPERATE THE OFFENSE AND SEE WHO’S OPEN AND GET HIM THE FOOTBALL. IT’S A, IT’S A LITTLE OF THAT, I THINK UM, THE RAVENS PASS RUSH IS AN ISSUE LIKE WE’VE TALKED ABOUT IT A BUNCH THEY CAN’T QUARTERBACK WITH 4, THEY’RE NOT EXACTLY A BUNCH OF RIVAS ISLANDS. THERE ON THE BACK END, TOO, TO WHERE THEY CAN SHUT PEOPLE DOWN THAT WAY. I THOUGHT THE KANSAS CITY APPROACH WAS A LITTLE DIFFERENT YESTERDAY AND I I BECAUSE BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, ME, I’M WATCHING FILM. I’M THINKING ABOUT WHAT TEAMS CAN DO TO BE BETTER. WHATEVER. THAT’S WHAT I TALKED ABOUT. MY PODCAST, 1 OF THE THINGS, I KIND OF BROUGHT UP LAST WEEK WAS LIKE I THE CHIEFS ARE NOT GOING TO GET JUST BETTER AT RUNNING THE BALL OVER THE OVERNIGHT, BUT THE 1 THING THEY CAN DO IS JUST SPREAD THE FIELD, LET MAHOMES GET GET THE BALL IN THE SHOTGUN AND LET HIM THROW THE BALL AND START YESTERDAY. THAT WAS QUARTERBACK WITH 4, THEY’RE DYING. YOU UP THAT WAY. I HAD A LOT OF THROWS UH WHERE IT WAS GET THE BALL AND PROBABLY GOT A COMPLETION UNDER 2 SECONDS WHERE HE KNEW WHERE HE WANTED TO GO, AND THEY WERE JUST LIKE, HEY, LET’S KEEP OURSELVES A MANAGEABLE SITUATION LIKE THIS PAT KNOWS WHAT TO DO. HE’S OUR BEST PLAYER AND LET’S LET HIM BE SURGICAL AS I ALWAYS SAY AND MAKE IT HAPPEN THERE. SO, I THINK BETWEEN THAT, THAT ASPECT RIGHT THERE. AND THEN NUMBER 1, XAVIER WORTHY, BEING ON THE FIELD, TO JUST TAKE A LITTLE PRESSURE OFF, LIKE, WE ALWAYS TALK ABOUT IT. CAN’T ALWAYS BE 14, PLAY 75 YARD DRIVE, EVERY NOW AND THEN. YOU NEED SOMEBODY TO HELP YOU OUT TO GO. OH, THAT GUY. RIPPED OFF 50 YARDS. IT WAS A 5, PLAY 75 YARD DRIVE INSTEAD. AND THAT TO ME, IS THE ELEMENT THAT XAVIER WORTHY BROUGHT, HE DEFINITELY OPENS UP THE OFFENSE THAT WAY AND MAHOMES IS REALLY ON HIS GAME WHEN THEY WERE AT THEIR BEST. THEY WOULD FIND THE GAS PEDAL AND MASH IT AND SCORE LIKE 28 POINTS IN A QUARTER, RIGHT? AND AND AND THAT’S THE CHIEFS WE’RE USED TO SEEING, THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT PATRICK MAHOMES WASN’T THE LEADING RUSHER YESTERDAY. HE ONLY HAD 5 FIRST TIME ALL YEAR, RIGHT? HE’S STILL THE LEADING RUSHER BY 3 YARDS FOR THE SEASON OVER ISAIAH PACHECO. 1:30 TO 127, BUT THEY NEED TO HAVE MORE OF A RUNNING GAME. THEY SPREAD IT AROUND A LITTLE BIT YESTERDAY. XAVIER WORTHY, HAD A COUPLE OF RUNS HE GAINED 38 YARDS. FIRST, THEY HAVE TO CHECKO HAD 34, THEY NEED MORE FROM THAT, ASPECT OF THE GAME, BUT IF YOU’RE GOING TO GET 270 FROM MAHOMES, AND HE’S NOT GOING AND 4 TOUCHDOWNS, AND SPREAD DID. AND THEY’RE 2 GAMES AWAY. NOW FROM RUSSIA, RICE COMING BACK. YEAH I MEAN I I THOUGHT AS OF A WEEK AGO THIS TEAM IS DESPERATE TO BRING BACK TYREEK HILL AFTER YESTERDAY AND KNOWING THAT RICE IS COMING. MAYBE THEY DON’T NEED TO EVEN CONSIDER THAT. WELL I MEAN RICE IS GOING TO BE HUGE WHEN HE IS BACK, RIGHT? BUT BUT BUT I THINK THIS, AT LEAST GIVES THEM A LITTLE CONFIDENCE TO GO, HEY UNTIL HE GETS HIS FEET UNDERNEATH THEM AND IS IN AND GAME SHAPE. WE, WE CAN BE OKAY. TRAVIS KELCE LOOKED PRETTY GOOD YESTERDAY, RIGHT. THAT I THINK ALL THOSE THINGS WERE POSITIVE. UM, BUT YES, WHEN MAHOMES SPREAD THE BALL, LET HIM TAKE THE GAME INTO HIS OWN HANDS. AND I LIKE, WHEN THEY USE THE QUICK PASSING GAME, I THINK HE’S VERY GOOD AT IT, RIGHT? AND I THINK THAT’S YOUR CHANCE TO NOW. MAYBE GET SOME PEOPLE TO CREEP UP. GET GET SICK OF MAHOMES DYSON. YOU UP THAT WAY TO NOW WHERE WE COULD TAKE SOME SHOTS DOWN THE FIELD AND FIND SOME PLAYS THAT WAY AND, YOU KNOW, WE SAW A LITTLE OF THAT YESTERDAY, BUT I THINK WE ALL WANT TO SEE HIM, PUSH

  3. If Lamar tapped out of that game and it’s looking to be that way (Harbaugh refused to comment, no medical around Lamar) that’s worse than losing any playoff or Super Bowl game I’ve never seen a MVP , all time great QB flat out walk off the field in the middle of a series

  4. The discussion around mahomes has been embarrassing. He's been fantastic this year playing with a bunch of bums and he finally gets a decent weapon back and goes off for 4 TDs. He's 1 of 1.

  11. Chris has criticized the Chiefs so much that now he’s at a loss for words, unwilling to give them their flowers. Instead, he tries to downplay their success by saying the Ravens were simply on another level, but deep down he knows the Chiefs proved themselves on the field. " I'm going with the Ravens"

  15. If KC does make any trades I'd rather them go for a RB. I think that the Ravens defense made the KC run game look better than it actually is, and if Elijah Mitchell is never going to be used then they need another guy who can exploit openings and get down field. Except in this last game neither Pacheco or Hunt have been able to do that (Pacheco has bad instincts and Hunt is too slow at this point in his career). Brashard Smith I think will be a good weapon but he isn't a power back type.

  21. I don't know how this was shocking, the Ravens have looked tight and frustrated all month. Meanwhile KC just looked like the offense was a bit out of sync.

  24. KC has been good against the run lately. They stopped Barkley twice & Henry twice & more since last year at least. It's the running QBs that have given them a bit of trouble instead.

  25. At this point “against the Ravens” is looking the same as “against the Cowboys” in terms of defense. Good win by KC – they need to sustain it if we are to say they are “back.”
