Think the chiefs defense will give Brady a hard time,
I think one thing that has been true all through the playoffs against some high calibre defensive fronts - WAS, NO as well as last night was that Tampa managed to find time for Brady to sit in the pocket and pick his throws. Buffalo's gameplan is predicated less upon staying in the pocket, because of Allen's ability to extend plays. TB12 is already capable of getting the ball out as quickly as anybody if he needs to, and when he has time in the pocket he is just too talented to stop. Chiefs should be able to give him a hard time, but so should have a lot of other teams that Tampa have played against in the playoffs. The Chiefs have some good exotic blitz packages, but TB12 is also the best to ever do it. And has 2 weeks to prepare.
I think the most important thing for the Bucs in keeping up will be eliminating the drops which have plagued Godwin and the RBs though the playoffs, in order to extend a few more drives, and take away a few more opportunities for KC to possess the ball.
Exciting...

Chiefs defense does enough to make good offenses struggle. Allen looked flustered and harried all game long. The pressure applied by the chiefs offense and trying to keep up with it allows their defense to turn the screw constantly, even if they occasionally give up big plays..
Wonder how Allen and McDermott will recover after this setback? Lots of articles talking about how the future is bright, foundational players on long term deals and all that, but they could be in a straight fight for divisional supremacy against the dolphins, so not sure they should be thinking that they’ll automatically be getting back to this stage next season.
Think the chiefs defense will give Brady a hard time, he’s not as mobile (obviously) as Allen and there were a couple of plays that Allen made with his legs to extend drives that Brady can’t, which I think may be the deciding factor.
But hey I thought the packers would beat the bucs so what do I know..
Looking forward to a little rest before the Super Bowl..
