"Kermit doesn't like this option either" got me😂

Reid is a master play designer. Once teams eventually start copying the 1-4 tactic, the Chiefs will dip back into their endless well of plays for more coverage-busting magic. Many teams have gone away from the 2 deep shell against the Chiefs this season thinking Tyreek is gone and they could press man, but in the relatively short time Mahomes has been in the league he's learned how to beat any coverage with Reid's system and arguably the most capable WR room in his Chiefs tenure. You're always going to be wrong defending this offense, so your only chance is getting them to make mistakes.

The only chance against the Chiefs is basically what the Titans do: * Take away the deep shots and stay disciplined, do not improvise. * Be physical against everyone but specially on Kelce, chip him on every play. * Pressure in the middle but play contain on Pat. * No missed tackles. * Make them hold long grueling hard fought drives And we all know even then the Titans havent been able to take them down in the playoffs

@@davidcarr6633 it’s always been a thing. Tight ends main purpose in an offense is to block and make short catch. Some tight ends receive it good and some do both good. Gronks blocking was elite but his receiving was elite too. Kleves receiving is even better. His blocking is above average. I think kelce is better but tightends need blocking to fit in a whole or else they would have these fast wide receivers playing tight end

The problem for other teams with the 1-4 is that they do not have (a) Mahomes and (b) Kelce. The Chiefs are also deep at TE and have competent journeymen WRs. And the Big Red cherry on top, is Reid devising variations of the formation. So, yes, other teams might try to copy this, but no recipe is complete without a master chef who knows how to use his ingredients.

While I agree - having the speed MVS and Hardman bring ensures defenses can't attack those underneath zones and it makes going man a tricky decision. Juju can run the same inside routes Kelce does - so it gives you another big body with good hands not afraid to get hit after the catch. Chiefs are not as explosive without Cheetah - but Reid has finally figured out how to attack the defensive scheme that gave Mahomes so much trouble last year. Also helps Mahomes now firmly understands you can't go YOLO bomb as often as he liked to 2-3 years ago.

Seems a bit...uncharitable. I have no stake in the Chiefs or even in that division, but Andy Reid is 19-16 in the playoffs + has a ring. - In terms of playoff win %, he's in the neighborhood of Tom Landry and Don Schula, who are considered greats. - Among active coaches, the only one who is obviously better is Belichick, though Sean McVay can make a case as well at 7-3 if and only if he sustains that. - Pete Carroll and John Harbaugh are comparable in terms of win %, though have visited the playoffs fewer times. - 19 playoff wins is pretty incredible; he is presently tied with Don Schula for 3rd overall, and will almost certainly surpass Landry's 20 before he retires, leaving him #2 overall to Belichick in NFL history. - Speaking of Belichick, he + Brady as the best coach/QB combo in history are directly responsible for Reid not being outright better than Landry by now. I suspect that w/o Belichick, there would be some narrative arguing whether Reid is GOAT for playoff coaches...in part because he'd most likely have another 1-2 rings and a better record, and in part because there wouldn't be a >30 playoff win monster sitting in front of him. Reid is worse in the playoffs than the best playoff coach ever...and not that much worse than anybody else in NFL history...everyone with a significantly better win % wasn't anywhere near as prolific. His all-time record is excellent in regular season, still good in postseason, and by splits he's improved as a coach over time. I suspect he'll forever be in Belichick's shadow, but he's a **** fine coach in his own right and most teams would love to have him at the helm.

These concepts completely mask Mahomes inability to read defenses. The pre snap motions. The floods, and developing and coverging routes on from or to the same side of the field allow for mahomes to read one side of the field and read the receiver and space created by the concepts. Reid is a genius

Subscribed after this first video for me. Great work. One thing this video really cements in my mind is that Kelce can read a defense better than most QBs. He understands the coverages and knows where to go on broken plays to be a consistent outlet. The 13s game against Buffalo was actually two Kelce calls. He called his own number up the seam and Mahomes hit him, but he also call Hill's number knowing his route would open up the space for Hill right behind him. Those two plays put KC in field goal range. But I may have to back off the "Mahomes is the most effective runner" take that Nick Wright threw out. Mahomes is really effective, but Reid is truly scheming up plays for Mahomes to scramble for big gains if the play breaks down. As long as he goes to the weak side of the defense, he's got tons of yards to pick up.

Love watching these because it teaches me so much more about football that I didn't know. So much goes into every play that I don't realize. This is why I love football way more than other sports. It's not just kicking a ball and getting it into the goal like soccer, or running back in forth with a basketball passing the ball back and forth until somebody finally decides to shoot. It's so much more strategic and way more can happen than any other sport.

An excellent video, text and graphics. Amazing to tease out the play design behind the Chief's success along with execution and personnel. Good work.

Great video. It takes arm strength, accuracy, disciplined players, an x factor tight end, and some serious brain power to run these plays. Not every team has that combination to be able to counter this defense. Mahomes and KC are 1 of 1 right now and I don't see it changing for a while. As long as there is a tight end of kelces caliber on the team the AFC will run through KC for years.

Damn man analytical AF! Good work! I needed some clarity on how the Chiefs are attacking the defenses! 1/4 split!

I enjoyed the knowledge plus lines, arrows and circles to help understand the plays!

This is a brilliant analysis explanation!!! U got a new sub. Wait until they really start factoring/featuring Pacheco in the passing game....

Like everything always is, it's a cycle. It's funny but I feel that a well organized Cover 3 defense would give this 1-4 stuff fits. The issues they present become less frustrating if you don't play man so the pick routes/mesh aren't available, but the disadvantages of having 2 deep don't also get exposed and you have more bodies in the box to cut off screens/picks/runs that have become common. The next evolution of hybrid defenders is going to have to grow up fast and front fours are gonna have to become elite to help with this or you'll go back to seeing the deep ball/4 verts/chip wasp stuff annihilate defenses. It's a tough situation for sure.

Hit the nail on the head. The reason why Mahomes is the best QB in the NFL right now is the combination of his arm, his legs, and his vision. Allen has the arm and legs but not the vision; Burrow has the arm and vision but not the legs; Hurts has the legs and vision but not the arm. (Greatly simplified, of course.) Mahomes is the only one active who is elite with all three elements.
