They had to know they had no timeouts left and were running the ball on 3rd down to keep the clock moving.  Definitely should've had more urgency getting the FG team in position faster for sure.

 

12 men on the KC FG is inexcusable.  Don't know what was going on there.

 

This happened earlier in the year too.

One of the ST guys was banged up and another subbed.

Then the first guy came back in from his injury, and the sub guy didn't get the word.

 

It's a problem that these things keep happening.

Tabor and West have to get tighter with the in-game stuff.

Josh's "potato" hat in his presser is awesome.

 I have to say: I can't fully express the relied I feel at finally getting a bunch of the younger players going. While there are some disappointments (c'mon Keon) this finally feels like the Kincaid and Bishop we were supposed to get when we drafted them.

 

Hairston has immediately contributed and when you factor in the lottery hits that are Walker and Hawes the team is getting a young core again.

Just wondering if anyone else agrees with this. Prater for some unknown reason didn't get out on the field until 10 seconds wee left so the kick was rushed. Wouldn't the better play have been to have tried to punt it inside the 10 yard line? It wastes more clock and pretty much ends the game.

The Billls used their last timeout on the previous play when they didn’t have to.  Should have saved it for the kick…

I have to say it was fun seeing CEH out there. That dude is terrible!

THIS.

 

Kicking the field goal was the right call imo. But the timeout on 3rd and 7 was criminal. Save if for the kick is right...jesus

It’s not THAT PLAY, it was 4 ***** defensive time outs.  From a DEFENSIVE COACH. 

I don't even understand what you're complaining about.  The timeouts they took were necessary because of personnel issues, not because he just took them to take them. Would you have preferred a penalty on the defense that would've given KC the first down on the KC FG attempt?

 

Using the timeouts didn't bite them.  Could it potentially have? Yes, but it didn't.  So you're complaining about something that didn't matter anyway.

Yep, I don't think it was even in question they were just going to be running the ball, so they should've already had a play ready to go. Don't rush the FG attempt. Didn't help the FG team didn't seem to have urgency getting on the field.

Can someone explain what happened on the 4th and 17 play? The coverage looked, ummm, a little suspect, 

Why did Bosa stop rushing the passer?

I think he thought it was a screen? The oline sort of shifted like it was.

The guard was so late getting to Bosa that he was unblocked and he figured the Chiefs were setting something up behind him.  It sucked because had Bosa gone straight after Mahomes they don't convert that 4th down. On the other hand it was a real heads up play by Bose to recognize that something wasn't right.

Agree, especially that last part. He sniffed something out, which is generally a good thing.

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.

   Devils advocate….. this is recency bias . You’re assuming that the teams and coaches taking their place are all going to be pushovers. 
   Don’t get me wrong, not seeing the Chiefs, Ravens or Bengals seems pretty sweet but we need to worry about our own warts first.

   Been against trading for help but am starting to come around…. On O. 
   

Im Not assuming anything. There’s 1 team that gives us an issue and I will take my chances with anyone else. I watch every second of nfl football available to a person. I’m not assuming anything. If we can avoid the chiefs, I’m interested

Bosa’s nose was lined up in the neutral zone

[Bills!Win!]

My prediction. Chiefs (6 seed) at Bills (5 seed) in the AFCC. The matchup everyone saw coming, just not the way we expected it

110% agree. Fast CB

Same as having ONE fast WR 😕

[ALLinALLEN]

Just seeing mahomes completed 44% of his passes - 15/34 AND STILL GOT 250 YARDS. Unreal man this defense

Silver lining on if the bills lose the division would be if kc ended up going out to NE in the wildcard round haha what a crazy situation that would be 

 

imagine winning the division and your reward is a first round game against Buffalo,Baltimore,or KC 😂
