1st Team All Pro - TE George Kittle Thread | Page 687

George of the Jungle babiee! He pretty much did to the Clucks what he did to the Chips last season. Just a couple of a beautiful redzone tds with BP. I saw that pancake of safety Love as well.

I don't know why we don't look to the big guy in the red zone more when we're struggling there?

Criminally underused in the passing game throughout this career.

This is what we should be doing. Target him in the redzone. He's big and physical with great hands. That's the perfect redzone target. Enough of targeting little guys in the redzone. That wasn't working. This is. So stick with what works.

After those games i got tears in my eyes realizing how criminally rare we used him in the last seasons when he could have been the x factor to win it all.

Yes you feature him there to the point he's drawing extra attention and THEN you can find the other guys. I remember the ATL Falcons always looked for Tony Gonzalez and the same can be said for him when he was in KC. Look to your big guys in the red zone as a primary option

Yea we get too enamored with his blocking and then we forget that he's a big guy and a mismatch vs safeties and linebackers depending on if we're running or passing and he should be featured in the red zone
