The game was close, but let's not pretend the Bungles got lucky.

There was also the 4th down play that Dunlap was able to kill near the goal line. Cincy got too cute on that one with a reverse handoff type of play and Dunlap did an amazing job to kill the play. This was very close to the Chiefs goal line.
KC has to find a way to be sharper. Can't have 2 drives ending in fumble or missed field goal in the 4th quarter. Hopefully the defense with a strong home crowd behind them can do better than allowing 430 yards with only 1 punt for the Bengals offense.
I would like to see Mahomes stay focused on picking up first downs instead of trying to force the deep shots. If it's 3rd and 5, throw it 6 yards instead of 30-40 yards. Keep the drives alive, which ultimately leads to KC points and also keeps the Cincy offense on the sidelines.
