No question that it would be a bust for the network that's broadcasting the game. The west coast against a team that isn't an AFC glamour team. Probably low scoring ball control football. I can hear the sound of the average fan or the ones that only watch the SB changing the channel after the half time show.
The best way to stop a RB like Henry is to be on him as soon as he gets the ball. I know they can't do that on every play but with Bosa's ability to knife inside and Ford's speed off the edge they could disrupt the timing of the exchange and wrap him up or slow him enough that he can't get that big body moving. Once he get headed downhill and into the secondary he becomes a nightmare. I hate the thought of Kwon trying to tackle him with that pec still a question.

Nope, the best way to stop him is tackling high...

This one isn't really a good one.

Yeah the Packers should be the dopey one

It wasn't long ago that we were the jokers on the right.

The last remaining undefeated teams and we were the pretenders.

I'll just 'pretend' I didn't see this.

You mean high on weed?
They will have to control the clock by running which they do very well. They wont be able to win in a shoot out with KC.

Ravens scored 80 more points this year than the Chiefs. Ravens point differential was +250. Titans had zero problem controlling the clock against them.
Tennessee needs a lead to be able to play bully ball against teams like the chiefs but I will say this the chiefs defense will be pounded to mush of it's a tight game wire to wire even if they win trying to stop henry and I mean you will see that defense drop bodies like crazy watch

Yea also if buck and armstead get push that will slow him down running into the back of his linemen
Their defense, LBs specifically, really excel against the run. They scheme well. I just don't see them keeping pace with KC.

In a shootout I don't see them hanging in the game . They'll try to lean on Henry and control the clock, but once KC takes a 2-score lead, the Titans will have to abandon the run and play outside their element. Tannehill has played really well, but he's not going to keep pace with Mahomes

I actually picked the Titans to beat the Ravens because I felt their defense was built to handle the rushing attack. KC is a different animal though. A pass-first offense can expose TN.

Ravens led the league in passing TDS. KC has more yds passing/game. True, they are a pass first offense but have no real ability to establish the run. KC was 27th against the run in the league at 126/game allowed and 4.9 ypc. I think they are gonna struggle to stop Henry just like their first meeting he went off for 188/2. I think it's a FG game.
When they beat KC, they blocked a last second FG.

It wasn't like they blew them out or anything. Now if Tyreek goes down again, ( he was taken out for a couple of plays last game) then we could have a ballgame.


Idt the Titans can hold off the Chiefs again. If they do, then all hands on deck because that is a force of a team to be reckoned with.

All they could do is really hype it up as a 'throw back' superbowl for the 100th.
