That was a chicken shit tackle. He went straight to his knee.

No you weren’t. I was cum blasting your mom in the face.

WE'VE GOT A CUM OFF!!!!

Is it normal that they don't show the stats anywhere in Arrowhead? Kept looking for them and couldn't find them anywhere. I will say that I wasn't impressed by the tech stuff inside the stadium.

Arrowhead is kind of a dump imo, and the parking/traffic situation (especially after games) is the biggest joke I’ve ever seen.

It literally took us 35 minutes to park after we scanned our parking pass. Crazy!

Chiefs fans are largely Kansas, K State, and Missouri fans so why waste the money when you know they're innumerate?

Yep helmet and shoulder diving straight into his knee. I called it dirty the second I saw it happen live.

My general observations:

-We look small on defense. The lack of effectively replacing TR and NH is very, very evident. No amount of “us vs the world” or chip on your shoulder will fix that.

-I hate the 3-3-5 or 2-4-5 or whatever the hell we run. I know Butler is an NFL guy but as of right now we don’t look to have the athletes to effectively run those formations. I would love to be proven wrong.

-We need a pass rush. Badly. And our blitzes seemed late and ineffective as well.

-Keep Shavers in the game and get McGahee on ASAP. We need an influx of athleticism on D.

-Offensively, our run game showed zero creativity. Maybe we were used to pushing our undersized DL around in practice but we just couldn’t get anything going. Yes, their safeties played high but crashed HARD as soon as they recognized a run. A lot of our run plays were too slow to develop.

-Not even a shot down field? No seam routes with our tight ends that would split a Cover 3? Outside of the TD no real RPO?

-Offensively, I thought our best players were Key, Hunter, and Lindemeyer. Lindemeyer in particular look damn good.

-We are paying a lot of money for a guy who false starts on the one yard line. I would have yanked his ass then and there.

-Why we didn’t double team The Godfather is beyond me. Lutovsky was getting his shit pushed in on the regular.

-I thought Johnson looked good but way tired at the end. We need to stop going no huddle all the time and give him a breather.

McGahee might have had the worst game out of everyone yesterday

McGahee might have had the worst game out of everyone yesterday

He was the one who lost contain on the reverse chasing Sorsby, right?

 

[MaxHuskers34]

He was the one who lost contain on the reverse chasing Sorsby, right?

Yeah he never set the edge, just immediately chased down on the LOS

 

[cwessel76]

Yeah that was a massive fuck up. Love his upside though.

 

[MaxHuskers34]

Upside is definitely there. McCullough should have been spying Sorsby all night. Nwaneri and Davis are monsters in pass rush. Overall I think the DL will be fine.

They did that shit all night. All of their secondary went at our guys knees. They were pretty cheap overall.

 

[COYS]

I actually thought our pass rush was fine. Sorsby is just damn hard to contain back there but against less mobile QB’s we would have had a few sacks.

Pritchett fucked up on that false start but outside that he was by far and away our best tackle last night. He needs to play more.

 

[ShortSideOption]

Was it @ShortSideOption who was sounding the alarm on RB? Whoever it was had a point.

We’ve got NO ONE. I like EJ but he’s not a game breaker. He will be more than fine this year but after him we are very screwed.

Edge rushers I agree.

We are lacking some beef up the middle though.

 

[Dawgsauce]

Huskers account deleted it. So weak.

Luckily I planned for this scenario

Hahaha. I told y'all. Swifties don't play and deleting that was pretty smart. Ain't nobody got time for that

Of RVP can get better they will be good

 

[dsbigred1]

My 15 year old is wise. “I know it’s just Cincinnati, but Nebraska needed this in week 1 vs a Power 4 team”

True story. Ugly, front 7 needs a ton of work. Gotta settle on a LT. But it is a win.

They got tons of guys reps too, and should be able to over the next 2 weeks as well.

If last night’s pace continues I doubt he makes through mid October. Are we forced to convert to air raid if(when) that happens?
