The Kansas City Chiefs Broke The #1 Rule, And It Won Them The Super Bowl | NFL News (Mahomes, Kelce)

every possession by the way the chief's alltime leading rusher pause it right here now we're about 8 minutes or so into the second half of Super Bowl 58 at this point and I mean up to this point it was ugly for Kansas City you had the frequent miscommunications you had the turnovers you had uh this and even though the scoreboard didn't necessarily say it the Chiefs had ultimately been shut down offensively for the majority of this game that is at least until this play now I know when you actually look at it it might just seem like a basic read option to some of you watching this video but you guys between everything that we witness from this point on in this game there is no exaggeration when I say that this play call it probably won Kansas City this Super Bowl but before we get into

you were looking at this game from either San Francisco or Kansas City's perspective keeping the football out of the opposing team's hands was ultimately going to be the name of the game you heard that before the game you saw one of the most questionable coin toss decisions of all time along with giving this guy the last chance to score in a sudden death situation really testify to that more than anything else could but at the same time the rather disappointing first half that we saw from Kansas city that is also another example of this but it's not even as if momes in this offense had been getting outplayed for the most part as some of the numbers would indicate and of course you got to give credit to spags and the defense at that point H how about that D baby but honestly it's more so the fact that their initial game plan it really couldn't have gone on worse let's start with the p game their short game Reliance we' become accustomed to was not producing like it had over the last few weeks along with the pocket pressure being pretty much overwhelming on momes for the majority of this game then there was what they were doing on the ground which really was supposed to be Kansas City's golden ticket against a defense that had been well below average in this regard but um in terms of Poo's production it looked less effective than it had all season and with offense that had just three first downs heading into the two-minute warning with one of them being a Hail Mary may I remind you ball control was everything to start this game and with Kansas Cities something needed to change because they weren't the ones controlling it and that change it starts right here now it's honestly funny because in terms of efficiency momes was by a mile the most effective ground game presence out of anyone in Super Bowl 58 as the numbers would tell you and I mean sure we've all known that momes can be as big of a threat on the ground as we saw in this game and really throughout the course of these entire playoffs but honestly after this play I don't think most people realize that we saw a version of Andy Reed and the Kansas City Chiefs that we haven't seen all season long because do you want to know how many times we actually saw run design plays for Patrick Mahomes in the entire regular season the answer three times three times yet down the stretch of the Super Bowl you're seeing triple options Zone read options pretty much anything you can think of to throw San Francisco's defense off in one of the most unexpected ways possible and I mean we've definitely seen in the past why Kansas city tends to lean away from overusing their quarterback's feet but at the same time you cannot make up the difference it made in every aspect of this offense for example through the first 3 quarters or so of this game when you saw San Francisco's front line constantly locking down edges and almost immediately biting on running back Concepts every time which was easily the biggest reason as to why Pacho wasn't as effective in the beginning as soon as momes became a run thread and you saw them continue to do this they eventually had to stop bull rushing the edges in order to re momes thus why you saw the ground presence be much more successful down the stretch of this game whether it be momes or Pacheko then even when you look to the Air Attack it clearly contributed to much less pocket pressure in dropback situations for momes Because by the grace of God for Kansas City it finally forced the San Francisco defense 45 minutes into the game to actually send a blitz at the pocket and uh well in terms of Mom's ability to both read and operate against the blitz I mean I I'd probably say it's a strong suit of his like it's one thing to see when you compare the first to second half numbers how much of an effect this simple Playbook adjustment had on this team's overall operation but it's another when you realize that somehow isn't even the biggest change that we saw because that other change that nobody expected there's only two words you need to describe it and those two words are Target share because guys in an offense that was predicated on the use of their top two Targets in rasid rice and Travis Kelce to find Success Through the Air Attack you somehow saw the exact opposite of that game plan in the biggest game of the year take for example the use of guys like mvs and Justin Watson white outs whose use had been lowered this season due to this offense's inability to consistently extend the field who as we saw were making crucial plays time and time again whether it was through the Deep ball or even being used in unexpected Concepts then of course there is the heart and soul and rice and Kelce who while the first to second half use of their Hall of Fame tight end was obviously heavily discussed the increase in use that you saw actually heavily relied on them taking advantage of Zone flaws and coverage gaps created by those other guys but I mean honestly if some of these facts like mle Hardman of all people being the one to walk it off or even some aspects on the other side of the ball such as holding guys like Brock perie and Christian McCaffrey to some of their least effective games of the entire season doesn't emphasize you how generational what we're seeing from any of these guys is I mean really I don't know what will but also that is where I want to hear what you guys have to think of this so please let me know in the comments what was the most surprising thing you noticed out of everything we saw from Kansas City in this game whether it was on the offensive or the defensive side of the ball and also what do you think either of these teams are going to do in this upcoming offseason but once again I just wanted to say thank you guys so much for watching I appreciate y'all more than anything and I will see you guys in the next [Music] video
