What if I said the opposing team only stopped us on the opening series and let us move up and down the field all game just as their offense did to us?

We're the better team.

 

The Fins are not a playoff caliber team and we needed a kick nobody thought Bass was going to make in order to win.

Divisional games can be funky at times.

 

Do you believe the Browns are better than the Ravens?

 

I guess it was better for them to lose to the Browns last week instead of "being a better team that needed to win at the last second"?

 

Nobody cares about how at the end of the year, only how many.

 

Many on this board should repeat that until they understand it better.

So we got 30 points by accident somehow is what you are saying?

 

Including a TD called back from phantom holds on back to back plays.

No, what I'm saying is our D was atrocious today.  Thought that was pretty obvious considering everything I said is in regards to the defense.

Cool, let me know how playing like that has worked out for us in the playoffs against good teams.

Yeah it wasn't good. It's going to happen sometimes. Fins refused to abandon the run game like they usually do and try to push the ball down field and they stayed patient.  Kudos.

 

It still wasn't enough. Imagine how the Fins must feel playing an A game and we play our C-ish game and still win.

I dont think the Fins played an A game.

 

I think our poor defense made it look like they played an A game.

It's irrelevant to the topic. Every game is its own entity.

 

So the Chiefs should apologize for looking like crap most games on offense and barely scraping by teams all year?

 

It doesn't matter how you play in a single game. Only the result.

I don’t get the defense today. Why not pressure Tua? Get in his face?  Honestly, knock him down a few times.  He made the choice to continue to play, defenders shouldn’t have a “hands off” attitude with him. Saw a defender last week pull up and not hit him.  Needed to pressure him. A lot of his gains were when he had an extended period of time to scan the field.

 

Not sure what the problem is, but as games go on other teams will start to exploit the edge on us. Tua did a great job with the outlet receiver, or planned delayed receptions on the edge. Has been a problem for us all year.

And as far as the playoffs comment, Lamar can tell you how great he has been in the playoffs...his signature moment is still a 101 yard pick 6.

There certainly is a difference between beating bad teams and being able to replicate that against good teams.

Either way, whatever game they played, they lost. In a game they needed a lot more than we did and quite possibly ended their season.

 

If you want to keep whining about things as if every game will be the worst case scenario then that's on you.

Yeah, not only were we getting no pressure, we repeatedly left receivers open out of the backfield for good gainers.

 

Dline had a tough game, which also means the LBs are going to have a harder time too, which they did.

I guess the Bills having the 2nd best win percentage of any team in all 4 major sports leagues over the past 4.5 years behind only the Chiefs must mean they only beat bad teams huh?

 

They beat the Chiefs 3 straight times in Arrowhead in case you forgot.

 

Playoffs the D has sucked when we needed it in those games but either way, trying to extrapolate a game against the Fins to mean something about the playoffs is honestly ridiculous.

When your husband leaves his feet and launches Into a player then he is intending harm.  Sorry honey it's not just a sport when you intentionally try to hurt someone.
