Hey guys, it’s your favorite dunk here. Go ahead and click that subscribe button below so you don’t miss a single episode of Night Cap. That button right here. Come for the sports. Stay for the stories. The Houston Texans beat the Kansas City Chiefs by the score of 20 to 10. Patrick Mahomes threw three interceptions as Kansas City playoffs hopes continue to fade. He was 14 of 33, under 50% completion, only 160 yards, no touchdowns, three interceptions, was sacked twice. He didn’t get much help from his receiving core. Uh Taekquin Thornton dropped the touchdown. Uh Travis Kelce dropped two plays on that final drive. Oo, and then one of them got picked. Yeah, Rasheed Rice dropped this huge fourth down. He got lit up. Petri, I think I think that that that thing kind of jarred him a little bit. I I I don’t think he was all the way back, Oo, cuz Petri dropped the boom on him. He did. He he dropped the boom on him. He was totally relaxed. Uh but the Texans did an unbelievable job. They got after the quarterback tonight and they uh uh forced him to shut down the I mean they had 20 but Mahomes with the the leading rusher with uh seven carries for 59 yards. But coach, you’re watching this game and you see the Houston Texans and what they were able to do. They go into Arrowhead. They get this victory, stay attached to the uh uh the Jacksonville Jaguars who leave that division. Yes. Uh they needed this this victory in order to try to gain some footing, get into the playoff. hunt and potentially chase down the Jags. But what did you like about what you saw from the Houston Texans? Listen, the Texans got it done. What I didn’t like, obviously, they didn’t make enough adjustments for me, especially offensively. Once Trent McDuffy went out, you you knew that that Spagnola had to bring pressure. Now, with them bringing pressure, I got tired of seeing CJ Strad run for his life and they make no adjustments offensively. Obviously, I I would think if if you know they’re blitzing every time, stop running plays where the plays take long to develop. Just go quick game. If anything, do do things, you know, misdirection. Get, you know, get them get them going one way and come back the opposite way with some something something else. But just seeing TJ Shroud run for his life. But they were able to make some plays even with that pressure and they the the back end was exposed. Obviously, that’s going to happen once once you do blitz. And um outside of that, the defense the defense won that game. The defense for the Houston Texans won that game for them. I’m not sure what’s wrong with the Kansas City Chiefs. They lost what uh five of the wait four of the last fives or something some something like that. They just don’t look the same. Obviously, they had a great run. They’ve had a great run and probably even though they have 15 who probably is arguably one of the greatest, if not maybe the second greatest quarterback of all time, this year just hasn’t been it for them at all. Everyone is healthy now offensively. Everyone is healthy now offensively and they let they let Patrick Mahome down. Uh Rasheed Rice, Hollywood Brown, he made made some plays. Uh Kelsey, he he looks almost like a shell of himself damn near. He didn’t he didn’t play well. It’s cold, Oo. When you get, you know, hey, when you older, it’s cold. Oo, man. You Hey, nah. Hey, that ain’t that ain’t no excuse. You know that. Hey, you have to adapt to the elements. You got to adapt to that. How you adapt to getting old? There’s a reason why old people move to Florida and Arizona. Hold on. Hold on. We’ve been catching footballs all our life. We ain’t been We ain’t been 36 all our life. We ain’t been 37 all our life. We ain’t been 40 all our life. Listen. Listen to me. Listen to me real quick. All you need is your eyes and your hands. That’s all it come down to. You could be 60 years old. Your eyes and your hands. That don’t never fail you regardless of how old you get. But the the Houston Texans, that goddamn defense, boy, they they can get after the quarterback. Um, they got the back end. The back end, man, them boys played very well. They played very well. So, I’m glad I’m glad to see the Texans win. They’ve won the last four of their last five games. So, it seems like they’re ascending right now while the Kansas City Chiefs are descending. They are. Uh, like I said, uh, Taekquin Thornton had a touchdown in his hands. He dropped that. Great play by LA, great great play to not give up by Lacer to continue fight all the way through the catch. Uh, Rashe Rice had a couple of drops. Travis had a couple of drops. We know that the offensive line is beat to hell. Uh the left tackle comes in and he gets out. Now you’re going against you go with an undrafted uh uh left tackle against Denil Hunter and and Will Anderson Jr. That’s not a recipe for success, but I thought he played really really well tonight. Um the offensive line is not, you know, their best. I mean, think about it. Your starting left tackle is out. Your backup left tackle is out. Your starting allp pro right guard, he’s out. Um your starting right tackle, he’s out. So think about it. you’re down. You’re probably you’re down to your backups to your backups. And at some point in time, you keep saying next man next man up, next man up. Well, the next man up need to be making the equivalent of the guy that he’s replacing. Because if you say, I I got a guy that’s making 15 million and then you bring a guy in 400,000. There’s a reason why one guy’s making 15 million. Oo, there’s a reason why one guy’s making 400,000. So, we got to, you know, this notion, oh man, next man up, next man up. There’s a reason why he was down to begin with. Yeah. Yeah. I disagree with the call that Andy made because points are the premium at this point in time. The score is 10-10. We’re late in the ball game. Oo, I won’t punt the ball because at that point in time, the Texans hadn’t done anything in the second half. I think they might have had might have had 50 yards in the second half. For the longest time, they were negative yards. Kansas City’s defense had honed in. Spags had done a great job of dialing it up, stopping the run on first down, getting after CJ Stra, getting him off his mark. In that situation, I disagree with Andy and I don’t like to disagree with Andy because I think he’s one hell of a coach and his resume speaks for itself. But in a game like this where points are at a premium, I don’t want to do if if they do nothing offensively, they’re in field goal range. Yeah, I I I can’t make that call. Oo, I got to punt this ball away. I understand I got Patrick Mahomes and I understand he wants to go for it. Go for it. Every quarterback is going to want to go hell. He going to want to go for it on fourth and 10, fourth and 12, right? But sometimes you got to use your better part. You got to use your judgment and like you know what let’s punt this ball. Let’s make let’s force them to make a mistake. Let’s not give them a gift. And I felt that’s what they did and that was really the difference in the ball game. Um but like I said the guys I mean Mahomes was a little off. I mean he had great that’s a hard play to defend and you and I talked about it where the running back you see uh Marks he caught a touchdown. He pretend like he was going to block. He slip out. CJ flips it to him because that’s the guy that has a man. Well, he’s coming on a blitz. I ain’t standing to block him. I’m just going to slip him and get to the flats. You see the guys a lot of times those tight ends will be on the line. They helping helping everybody sinking. Now they drift out. The only thing I would tell No, keep it up the field. Why you going to get a headache? Did you see that linebacker drifting that way? Now Momes threw a terrible pass. I would prefer you leak up the field and give yourself some room so you don’t run into that headache that’s in the that middle linebacker that’s waiting on you. But to make a long story short, and I know I went I made a short story long. The Chiefs aren’t getting very good this year. No, absolutely not. Hey, and honestly, Mahomes, he was 14 for 33. He had three interceptions. He only threw for 160 tonight. Xavier Worthy had 355. If I’m not mistaken, he might have been their leading receiver. the fact that Patrick Mahomes was a leading rusher that you’re not that’s not gonna win you many games. That’s not going to win you many games. You have to have some type of balance. They were onedimensional tonight for the simple fact that they couldn’t run the ball. They haven’t been able to run the ball all season long, honestly. And and that’s why Joe, I I felt that they should have gave up the second round pick or maybe even a first round pick for Han. Yeah. Cuz is there a back that’s coming out in the draft that you believe that’s better than Han that can run the ball between the tackles, can hit his head on the goal post, can catch the ball out of the back field? Because I mean PCO I mean Lord have mercy. He get a hole. He runs right up the lineman’s back. I’m like bro what are you doing? You look and Kareem he I I’m glad to see him back but he’s basically a power back. He’s a three yard and a cloud of dust guy. He’s not a guy that you can consistently give the ball to and you hope to him to break something big. That’s not what he is right now. He’s a two to three yard a carry guy. That’s what he is. Oo. And there’s nothing wrong with that. There’s a place for that guy that you know he can get you very very tough yards. The initial the first guy normally doesn’t bring him down but they need they need playmakers. They need guys that can help Patrick Mahomes out because at this juncture he can’t do I mean he can’t do any more than what he’s doing. He can’t he can’t guys Gu guys guys got to make plays and and when your quarterback and that’s the thing when your quarterback isn’t playing well you need guys that can step up and make plays. And he didn’t get any help tonight. Yeah. No, he he didn’t. And and the playmaker that we’re we’re speaking of honestly, uh I think as far as the receiver receivers are receivers are concerned, I think they’re set there. But Patrick Mahomes has to stop running the ball so much. They need a premium guy. They need a premium like when when I think about Bree Hall, I think Bree Hall might have had a chance to go there before uh before the the deadline for for trade for trades. That would have been perfect for them. That would have been perfect for them. So, a running back like a Jir Gibbs, I’m saying I’m not saying there’s another Jir Gibbs out there, but somebody like that that Yeah. Yeah. A Chan, a running back like that that can that can actually hit his head off the goal post from anywhere and every time he does get the ball, Yeah. the chance that something could happen, you know, that takes some of the pressure off of Mahomes, not having to do so much with his arm all the time and always happen to be Superman and make the plays that he’s Yeah, because the thing is, oo, sometimes that, you know, in the West Coast system, the short passing game is an extension of the run. They need the run. They don’t need an extension of the run. They need to be able to run the football and right now they can’t. Now the offensive line is beat to hell and we understand that because you know your right tackle is out, your left tackle went out. The guy that replaced him went out. So now you’re down to your third guy at tackle and who’s an undrafted free agent. Now your right guard is out. Now you’re down to your backup at right guard. So uh uh uh it’s it’s tough. It’s it’s tough. It’s really tough. Go ahead. Yeah. I I have a question. What is I I I don’t know why his name is slipping my mind right now. The running back that used to play for the candid Kansas City Chiefs, he tore his ACL, but before he tooured ACL, he was fast. Jamal Charles. Jamal Charles. They That’s what they need. They need another Jamal Charles or some somebody like that. I mean, man, listen. Jamal get that ball. If he hit that edge and get to that second level, you might you might the fat lady might as well sing. They need something like that. There’s nothing like that in the draft. I don’t think so either. So, so whoever and whatever they do get, it has to be a offseason acquisition. I have a good one for you right now, huh? I think they they they need to do whatever whatever they need to do in the offseason. They need to go get Alvin Camaro. Nah, they need to go get No, not at this not at this juncture of his career. Too many catches, too many carriers on that body. He’s not that guy anymore, Oo. He’s He’s serviceable, but he’s not that Oo. No. Uh Breeze Hall, he’s much easier. I’m He’s much better than what they have. But that ain’t saying nothing, Oo. You need you need you need you need a guy that you can really depend on. He’s breaking down in Kansas. He’s breaking down in New Orleans. Do you realize how many touches he has on his body? Yeah. Yeah, I know. You realize how many how many touches uh Derrick Henry has on his body? Yes. Look what Look what he did last year. He not the same this year. And maybe that’s because he’s not getting the same opportunities as he got last year. I think I I I me personally Oo, I think they need a little bigger back. No, they got Kareem Hunt. They don’t Oo, stop it. Oo, come on now. We like We love Kareem. We appreciate him coming on. Okay, wait. You said you said a bigger back, but that bigger back can only do so. Breeze Hall, they need that type of back. A guy that’s big can run with power and run with speed. Okay. Okay. Okay. I I Everybody look a Jir G, but they also have David Montgomery. You look at look at Green Bay, they got a two back system. Josh Josh Josh Jacobs and they got 23. I can’t get his name off the top of my head. Look at look at the uh uh the 49ers, Brian Robinson Jr., Christian McCaffrey. Yeah, Christian McCaffrey. So the the the backs need to I mean they’ve got to do they got to do some soularching. They they really do. And I thought Kansas City’s defense played really well tonight. Um they didn’t they weren’t I mean there were some times that they got through and they couldn’t get uh uh CJ on the ground and he made some plays. But see that’s what happens when you when you bring pressure and you sacrifice your back end because you know once McDuffy went out they they’re okay back there but they’re not great. No, they they they make they they make they hay when they can break when that that pressure can get there. If the pressure don’t get there, guys going to be running open. Yeah. You know what the bad thing about it is? is is for Spags having to make the adjustments with Trent McDuffy going out. When you do bring that pressure, McDuffy can lock down one side. He doesn’t need any help. So, you can bring all that all that pressure from from the opposite side of the field knowing that Trent McDuffy going to take care of his side, but once he goes out, hey, you’re backing him basically exposed, which is why Cra was able to make some of those plays despite him having to run for his life most of the goddamn life. You like You’re right. You’re you you’re right. Um, but look, it’s one of those years the Texas, this is what the Texans defense did in the second half. They picked Mahomes off twice. Uh, yeah, I mean, he went like what, nine straight passes. They the passes were either incomplete or they were intercepted. 28.6 completion percent rate and they had almost a 42% win rate. Um, and when you look at it, the Houston Texans are now eight and five. They’re in the uh eighth seed um behind the uh the lake behind the behind the Chargers, but their game back their game back at Jacksonville and they got they got three of their last four games are at home. They look they really they really do control their own destiny.

Shannon Sharpe and Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson react to the Houston Texans’ 20-10 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. Unc and Ocho break down why the Chiefs suddenly look like a shell of their former dynasty, questioning whether an aging Travis Kelce and a struggling supporting cast are leaving Patrick Mahomes without enough help — and if this could signal the end of the Chiefs’ dominant era.

  1. Ocho was correct, I thought the same thing the Houston Texans made no adjustments, when chiefs were constantly blitzing their offense, and Stroud was running for his life, you have to shorten the routes, shallow crosses, and screens, so Stroud can get the ball out quicker.

  2. Dynasty over. Dead. Done. Finished. Not to say the Chefs won’t ever be in the playoffs again, won’t ever make a run again—maybe another Super Bowl?—but this multiple-seasons heater they’ve been on? That baby is OVER.

  3. Ocho is right, about Texans plays taking too long to develop. But that’s on stroud. He holds onto the ball too long because he wants to keep trying to go long. Mills when he was in had that quick passing game going. Stroud honestly is holding this team back, but thankfully we have a top 3 DL to bail us out

  4. 6:19
    Disappointed in you with that line unk, remember. The word around town was that if Texans beat Chiefs they've solidified themselves in the AFC no excuses.
    Lets not talk about what went wrong for the chiefs, but what went right for those Texans down in Houston 😬😬
