Yikes! Poe only has four plays off...

[mikey23545]

in the last three games - none in the last two games...

This is starting to sound an awful lot like last years wear-down...He certainly won't see many plays off next weekend...

The run and pass defense was poor on the final drive. They took over at the Oakland 48 yard line and gave up 15 yards on the ground and the rest in the air and penalty.

It was a combination fatigue and scheme.

On the 90-yard TD run, Poe got walled off easily by Austin Howard, which opened up the gap for Murray to run through a poor tackle attempt from Mauga.

We are extremely lucky that Murray was knocked out of the game early after only a few carries.

Good grief, it's football. Teams give up touchdowns.

The Chiefs aren't the first team to get burned on a long play.

Not on the ground against the Raiders they don't.

I've been saying this for three weeks.

Poe and Hali have played 70 snaps each against both Buffalo and Houston. They ran out of gas by the end of the Oakland game.

I have no idea why Sutton has discerned this is sustainable, but it's not.
