Despite the underlying metrics painting the Kansas City Chiefs as one of the best overall teams in the NFL, Andy Reid‘s squad is 5-5 and on the outside looking in in the playoff picture. A loss to the Denver Broncos last Sunday made a 10th-consecutive AFC West title almost impossible going forward.
This all comes in a season where Patrick Mahomes has played at an MVP level in the majority of games. Despite that, the Chiefs offense hasn’t totally dominated opposing defenses like many expected, especially once Rashee Rice returned to the lineup. The Chiefs’ last two games have exposed that, as Mahomes threw only one touchdown total in both losses, while the offense wasn’t able to put up more than 21 points in either game.
Patrick Mahomes reveals why defenses keep shutting down the Chiefs’ intermediate passing game
Patrick Mahomes says defenses are urging him to throw the ball deep, but it isn’t working
Clearly, defenses are doing something specific in order to minimize Mahomes’ impact. Mahomes himself was very transparent when it came to explaining what defenses have done against the Chiefs offense: they’re taking away shorter throws.
It has become a bit of a trend that Mahomes isn’t as adept at throwing the deep ball now than he was earlier in his career. The downward shift began when Tyreek Hill left for the Miami Dolphins. It was expected that speedster Xavier Worthy could help Mahomes return to form, but the accuracy and chemistry just hasn’t been there for the quarterback and his receivers.
Defenses used to be terrified of Mahomes’ deep ball. With defensive secondaries playing more off-coverage, it allowed Travis Kelce and other weapons who excelled in the short and intermediate ranges of the field to really thrive. Fans have been wanting Reid to make offensive adjustments, and it appears that Mahomes believes they’re needed.

Grey Dawning imperious in Betfair Chase victory
Grey Dawning and an ice-cool Harry Skelton gained Betfair Chase revenge on last year’s winner Royale Pagaille to continue Dan Skelton’s dream run of form at Haydock.Ousted in a ding-dong tussle with Venetia Williams' dual winner 12 months ago, there was no mistake this time around, with Skelton never in a rush aboard the 10-11 favourite, as he allowed Handstands and Royale Pagaille to match strides early and head out for the final circuit in unison. Rebecca Curtis' Haiti Couleurs was disappointingly never a factor, while Gordon Elliott's Stellar Story could also never get involved, but there were three with a chance turning for home, where Charlie Deutsch had inched clear of Handstands who was under a drive from Ben Jones. Although Royale Pagaille jumped three out with an advantage, Grey Dawning was hot on his tail, travelling menacingly, and […]

Lossiemouth took her first step towards a Champion Hurdle bid when breezing to victory in the Unibet Morgiana Hurdle at Punchestown.A three-time Cheltenham Festival winner, rather frustratingly for some she has never taken part in the hurdling blue riband, instead dominating against her own sex at Prestbury Park the last two years. She ended last season by winning the Aintree Hurdle and with Willie Mullins' shuffling his pack following the season-ending injury to race regular and ace two-miler State Man, Rich Ricci's brilliant mare was seen as the perfect super-sub as she put her Champion Hurdle credentials to the test. Immediately to the front in the hands of Paul Townend, there was never a moment's worry for all connected, as the 1-5 favourite had her rivals under severe pressure two furlongs from home and her jockey able to look around […]

The Jukebox Man brilliant for Harry Redknapp at Haydock
Harry Redknapp’s The Jukebox Man found the scoresheet on his eagerly-awaited comeback, setting up a tilt at the King George VI Chase by romping to victory in the Betfair Exchange Graduation Chase at Haydock.Trained by Ben Pauling, the seven-year-old had been off the track since scooping Grade One honours in the Kauto Star Novices' Chase at Kempton last Christmas, and his team have always seen a return to the Sunbury track to tackle their Boxing Day feature as The Jukebox Man's 'cup final'. The 8-11 favourite for a race won by the likes of Grey Dawning, Bravemansgame and Clan Des Obeaux in the past, he was given an ultra-positive ride by Ben Jones as the duo never missed a beat to serve a reminder of his undoubted potential.
