And the 3rd and 2 deep shot was set up perfectly. Remember the game icer to MVS in the AFCCG in Baltimore last year? Same shit. Difference being that Mahomes hit that one and missed this one. This miss was on Mahomes.
I don’t like the play call because we couldn’t stop the pass rush and had just put a guard to line up at tackle. Mahomes had time to throw against Baltimore to close it out but got his clock cleaned today, but if we’re honest, probably still misses with a clean pocket, which is why the play call was dumb to begin with [Reply]

Sure, but it’s also true that batting 1.000 in one score games isn’t sustainable. We can be a great team in close games while only winning 90% of those contests, but that’s probably not going to be enough for us to get the bye or win the Super Bowl with this level of play. [Reply]
Ryan Fitzpatrick's breakdown on the broadcast lends credence to this too. The Raiders didn't have a play call in, so O'Connell tries to get a play off, the guard hears AOC clapping, taps JPJ, JPJ snaps it, ballgame. It's hard to be comfortable in that position. https://t.co/Ge4ZsDiwLj

Oh I’m sure one of these games where they are ****ing around will go against them the next few weeks, but history tells us that Mahomes and these Chiefs are completely different come January [Reply]
I hate watch this team at this point. There's nothing entertaining about this.
Every week it's just more really bad football and somehow we win. We aren't learning anything and nothing is improving. It's just gross.
Put me in whatever thread you want - this is not a good football team right now. They do WAY too many things poorly and it's way too easy to attack those things.
Agreed. And this was supposed to be another 'get-right' game. Well, we didn't get anything right. In fact, we got worse somehow. [Reply]

I didn't like that playcall against Baltimore either. Just cuz you hit the play, doesn't mean it's a smart strategy. At least that one was 3rd and 7 instead of 3rd and 2. You need 2 yards...2 yards! [Reply]
