I remember thinking how tired the Chiefs looked in the SB. Dropping them to 5 - 4 and third place in their division and at risk of missing playoffs seems surreal. They have loomed so large in our imagination for so long.
Of all the games against marquee opponents in the Clappy era, I thought this was the most complete game. We played 4 full quarters of good football (except 4th and 17). Our secondary was unbelievable and we actually rushed the passer with results.
I am surprised Reid didn't attack our run D, even without Pacheco. It looks like the only WR Josh trusts is Shakir.
I am coming to the realization that we will never have a defense like the 1985 Bears or 2000 Ravens. That kind of football has been outlawed. Our team is built for winning speed battles on artificial turf. We are a finesse team that is vulnerable to power football. Today, it worked very well.
