stevegrab Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 CEH had 54 targets (36 rec) in 13 games as a rookie, or about 4 targets per game. Yes 3 is low in 2 games, but he had 8 twice, 6 twice, and 5 once so 33 of his 54 targets came in 5 of his 13 games. Oh and 3 of those 5 were in his first 5 games. The last 5 games he played had targets of 5,2,1,6,2 And in their 3 playoff games, he missed the CLE game, then had 5 targets in 2 games. So maybe he was already showing fewer target numbers late last year and nobody saw that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Brown Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 A pass catching RB in college, on an Andy Reid team, with a high powered pass throwing offense. Seems like 5+ receptions a game would come like clockwork. I still don't get it and it still felt like a low floor HR swing at 3.2 in full PPR. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinishTheDrill Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 CEH regression to the mean. He's getting 35 touches, 12 targets, and 9 receptions for 206 yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief Dick Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Local talk radio had some good discussion about this very topic this week. The theory is that Mahomes is the problem. He just really isn't a check-down type of guy. If he has a choice, and he almost always does, he always chooses the downfield option. It's just his nature to seek out the big play. I would argue that Mahomes needs to develop this check down philosophy pretty quick, because the league has figured out the Chiefs offense. If he and Reid don't start utilizing the running and screen game more, defenses are just going to continue to play zone and keep everything in front of them. If you blitz Mahomes he will eat you up. You sit back and play zone, it's MUCH more difficult for him. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilthorp Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Much more difficult = 35 points instead of 50. CD, you aren't being critical of the most explosive offense in the league, are you? I'll trade you. Who in their right mind would want Mahommes to "learn" to check down. Absurdity at its finest, but KC fans have to talk about something I guess. Maybe start talking about how your defense is going to start ruining a generational QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exactly why Reid needs to develop this running game and start bleeding some clock. I've posted plenty of times this season already about why i feel like the Chiefs are going to underachieve this year. The defense is certainly one of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bier Meister Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Trying too hard to create a running game? CEH is doing fine, but now down 14. Only 10 pass attempts. You figure Reid will put it back in mahomes’ hands for a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
