Just not smart football , and only 8 seconds to go in regulation with no timeouts Exactly. With no timeouts and game clock almost out, there is no way mahomes turns up the field for extra yardage. IF that is what the defender thought. I believed he knew he was out of bounds and pushed him anyways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bermuda Triangle Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 9 minutes ago, LOVEMESOMEBILLS said: And right there is your typical Joe Burrow playoff game, except this time with ints. 250-270 yards and 1, occasionally 2 td passes. Typical scoring also usually 2 offensive tds and 2-3 fgs. Still never put up more than 27 points in 7 playoff games. In 7 games he now has 9 td passes and the fg kicker has 19 fgs. It has taken him 7 full games to equal the tds passes Josh had in 2 games last year. Defense and special teams is why Cincy is 5-2 in the playoffs, with (2) 23-20 defeats. His playoff rep is largely undeserved. Glad someone pointed it out. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also was rooting for neither team, but if you put a gun to my head, I would've picked the Chiefs. The Bengals needed to be knocked down a peg.

The defense and fg kicker are the primary reason for their playoff success. Who couldn't win with a defense who gives up less than 19 ppg in those 7 games, never giving up more than 24 points and with a fg kicker going 19/19 in fgs. Heck the defense even threw in a game winning td a few weeks ago. He's been a very average QB in the playoffs to date. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game was pretty even talent wise and play on the field wise. The officiating is bad ( usually favoring KC) but that’s across the board in all games and you kind of expect it. Still, the Bengals had the ball and screwed it up. They could have stopped KC late with almost no time to execute a FG try or from a very long distance and took an awfully stupid penalty. Definitely a great look at a road playoff win for CIN. Edited January 30, 2023 by Boatdrinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also benefitted from the refs in the Raiders. The one ref accidentally blew the whistle during the go ahead td play and half the Raiders on defense quit playing. By rule the ball is supposed to be returned to the los and the play redone, instead they awarded the Bengals the go ahead td .

There were 40 seconds left on the clock when the Bengals punted and the Chiefs got away with two obvious blocks in the back resulting in possession about 40 yards past where they should have started. Then they get away with 3 separate holds on the same play where the Bengals get called for a soft game-sealing penalty. And that's only a few minutes after the refs declined to call a more obvious roughing the passer on the Bengals' previous drive. So the Chiefs did absolutely nothing on their final drive (besides get away with obvious penalties) and were awarded a 45 yard field goal attempt to end the game. 2 1 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
