The blunder that stood out to me after listening to Paytons analysis and the mistake was playing "outside technique", coach speak for guarding the sidelines, it appeared McD and Frazier just didn't factor in the Chiefs had timeouts. It was the correct call if they had no timeouts, but that wasn't the case. Simple as that. The D was too deep and too wide. It was poor situational awareness. It was exactly the defense you would want to face to get into FG range with timeouts in hand.
Takes both sides of the ball to make plays, not just the offense to win against the best teams. Its always been a team game. Hill and Kelce under a hundred yards, Tyreek shutout in the 2nd half, 2ints, 4 sacks. Bengals D made plays.
