Kansas City Chiefs: The Patriots Biggest Threat

Offense:

Tyreek Hill – WR

There has not been a more dynamic football player in the NFL this year than Kansas City Chiefs receiver Tyreek Hill. Note that I said “football player” and not just “rookie”. Hill has been a one man highlight reel for the Chiefs this year with performances that just seem to get better. Despite being limited in playing time, Hill has emerged as a tremendous threat.

Tyreek Hill has nine offensive touchdowns on the year with just 85 touches. That means he scores on more than once out of every 10 times he gets the ball. To put that in perspective, Cardinals running back David Johnson (who led the NFL in touchdowns) scored 20 times on 373 touches, or once every 18 times he got the ball.

Analysts have caught on to how dangerous Tyreek Hill is, and are starting to talk more and more about him. The young playmaker is easily the fastest man on the field every time he steps out there. With sure hands, great vision, and acceleration that just isn’t fair, there is very little that opponents seem to be able to do to stop him. You can bet that Bill Belichick has taken notice.
