Quick Reads

The Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, and as you could tell from the 40-26 final score, there are many, many differences between the two teams. Beyond history, geography, color schemes, mascot, coaches, and players, though, I want to focus on how each squad distributed the ball in the passing game. Even with Tyreek Hill leaving the game due to injury, the Chiefs tended to force the ball to a small handful of players. Sammy Watkins led the team with 11 targets, while Travis Kelce had eight and Damian Williams had six; nobody else had more than two.
