Episode notes
Colts vs Chiefs: Data Versus Belief
- The Colts present a data-versus-heart matchup against the Chiefs, blending elite rushing and play-action with Kansas City's recent offensive decline.
- Daniel Jones' calf question and Andy Reid's run-call hesitation make the game's outcome hinge on belief versus metrics.
Treat Limited Practices As Likely Play
- Monitor injury reports closely: Daniel Jones was added with a calf issue but reporters suggest caution rather than alarm.
- Expect teams to list limited participation yet still play, so treat 'limited' as probable availability.
Why Mahomes Struggles Downfield
- Patrick Mahomes' deep passing issues stem from opponents daring Kansas City to beat man coverage and inconsistent deep targets.
- Receiver types (crosser/after-catch vs contested deep threats) shape the Chiefs' schematic limitations.
