2:12 left...... Chiefs have 2 TOs.
Run the ball on 1st down to the 2 minute warning.
Run the ball on 2nd down. Force the Chiefs to use a TO.
Run the ball again. Force the Chiefs to use their last TO.
If you just pick up that last first down, you can take a knee.....run the clock down to a couple seconds and kick a short game winning FG with no time left for them to get the ball back.
Instead, they passed every time, didn't get the first down, left them with basically a full 2 minutes and 2 TOs to go on a potential game winning drive.
Worst case if we didn't get the 1st down running on those 3 plays would be giving them the ball with just about a minute left and no TOs. Sure, no guarantees, of course, but it would have been a much better situation at worst.
