This offense is just so bad.
Something I've noticed is every time they do a downfield look it looks like we only ever have 3 guys running routes. Seems a very limited passing game. I know we don't have many receivers atm but still surely just bodies out there to stretch the D a little.

Zach Allen is a beast
Great 2nd half by Bo. I know Payton said last week he likes to play a little free at times, but ffs that first half play calling was abysmal, give him something to work with. Once the playbook opened up late Bo was playing like a Pro bowler. Some of his scrambling was elite, it sucks he's basically got turnstiles at tackle meaning he's pressured almost immediately every time, but he's so good at slipping that first sack and resetting the pocket or getting outside.
Hopefully going forward Payton calls more aggressively like that rather than the super conservative 3 short route plays he called int he first half.

Good performance against an already banged up Saints team that got even more banged up as the game went on. Really should've put 50pts up today, but too many stalled drives near the red zone.

Great to see the O-Line and Run game look half cohesive!

The Bo Nix narrative needs to stop IMO - and by that a I mean the weekly swinging of dump him to give him #7.
It so sad that members of the fam base and media therein cant just wait and let him develop.
Sure he's had the 61 games at college etc but this the NFL - and he's getting better. But the weekly swinging back and forth is asinine.
Panthers are trash and he got a good solid win.
Ravens are not trash and will be infinitely harder. But watch the down swing if he has a rough game - and the Ravens eat rookies for breaksfast and LJ will make the D work its arse off.
Anyway... like what I see and think the next 3 years will be all on the up.

Yeah this Bo Nix hype is out of control. Let's not get carried away
Played the Panthers, Injured Saints, Horrible Jets and Raiders team and injured Chargers on this current streak. Needs to back it up against some good opposition.
Mac Jones looked ok for a stretch too.

Seems slight unders, would've preferred a 4th/5th. Realistically a 5th.
Good to lock up Coops, though.

Tough one. Defense showed up, Bae Nix showed he's got the stones to put in a game winning drive against an elite D.
Then the special teams balls it up.
On one hand you have to give the Chiefs credit for the play, on the other... you've got to execute that, man. Like 4 of them managed to get close enough to block the kick. Massive blow up by the line.

Would’ve been tough to miss the playoffs if we won that

The left hand side of the line just collapsed... dagger in the heart! Committed to the 5am early wakeup, now gonna be grumpy at work all day
I've seen posters online elsewhere point out it was Forsyth that basically just fell backwards immediately. His man ultimately blocked the kick.
But you can see there was about 4 guys in total broke through and were a chance to block the kick, so it's not just him. The whole left side just capitulated.
