That's gonna finish me off

Like the sport people, don't love it....

11-5 was fun. People loved that. 38-10 was fun. People loved that. Giving up a FOUR TOUCHDOWN LEAD in the playoffs is not fun. That's legendary suck. People do not like that.

I understand your frustration, I really do.
I spent all of Sunday questioning why I’m a fan of this team. Is it simply location?
They certainly haven’t rewarded my loyalty with success.

If it helps any, I still don’t have an answer for that.

According to the talking heads it’s the second largest playoff collapse in NFL history.

It is, only the '92 Oilers were worse. I had the "pleasure" of viewing both games in the same room...AWESOME!

Ironic that the Chiefs beat those same Oilers one year later for their last playoff victory...I was at that game in the Astrodome and WHAT A GAME it was, but in no way did I think that it would be the Chiefs last playoff victory for 20 years and counting...

I haven't seen this anywhere, but I'm guessing if you factor in we were plus-3 in the turnover ratio, plus scored 44 points, it's the worst performance ever.

I saw that teams that lose the turnover margin in playoff games all time are something like 16-130, and that of course includes teams that were minus-1 (low-end affairs like 0 turnovers to 1, 1 turnover to 2). We were PLUS-3 and lost ... while scoring 44 points.

It's absolutely mind-boggling.

Yep. The '92 Oilers were -3 in the turnover ratio which really helped Buffalo come back. Its just inconceivable that the Chiefs managed to lose that game. No ****ING WAY THAT COULD HAPPEN, but happen it did. Funny thing is, its MORE BELIEVABLE if it were actually rigged.

Bob Dole continues to want to utter "unbelievable" when people ask him about the game.

Unfortunately, it was all too believable.
