We talked about on coast to coast yesterday,
00:02
I said, look, here's the thing, that 10 and 1/2 point number,
00:05
it's too high.
00:06
The reason is the Chiefs offense is not operating
00:09
like they did last year.
00:10
The biggest problem for them that they've had so far
00:13
through the six games is they don't
00:15
have a viable second pass target opposite Kelsey.
00:19
They just don't.
00:19
And Kelsey, give him credit with the low ankle sprain.
00:21
He did a great job, caught all nine targets.
00:23
He saw him limp off.
00:25
He'll get four extra days to get the ankle right.
00:27
Actually, more like six, because they
00:30
won't do anything really with him until Wednesday leading up
00:32
to the next game.
00:32
But Rasheed Rice has flashed a little bit, rookie receiver.
00:36
But he's not been consistent enough yet.
00:38
We talked about Sky Moore before the season,
00:39
a guy they thought would break out.
00:40
He is not.
00:41
They haven't found that guy.
00:42
And that's part of the reason why
00:44
this offense, they keep sprangling around
00:46
to 8 to 12 pass targets, different guys each week,
00:49
because they haven't found that guy.
00:50
And that's a problem.
00:51
They only had 19 points last night.
00:53
I give the Broncos credit for hanging in there.
00:55
In fact, late in the fourth quarter,
00:56
they were covering that number.
00:57
And the Chiefs were able to get that field goal by Butker late.
01:01
But the bottom line is, hey, they've won five in a row.
01:04
You know what happened week one?
01:05
Without Kelsey and Chris Jones, they played well since then.
01:08
But they're not back yet.
01:09
They're clearly not back where they need to be offensively.
01:11
They've got to find that consistent number two
01:13
pass target.
01:14
That, to me, is Matt Nagy, the OC, and Andy Reid's job
01:18
right now is to find that guy.
01:19
And they will continue to search for that.
