Why did we kick the field goal with 11 seconds left?

[Rain Man]

I agreed with doing it. You get a sack or a bad snap, or a guy doesn't get out of bounds, and the game is over. The field goal is 95+%, and gives you a 50/50 shot at winning the coin flip that determines the winner.

They took one shot.

Which is exactly what they should have done. You are ****ing with fire if you get a holding call, or get sacked with no timeouts and 11 tics on the clock.

I just watched the video that was referenced...dude is right, if Mahomes hits Williams he's got a catch and out of bounds at the 10 yard line...

Mahomes left a lot of plays on the field.

But goddamn is the future bright, or what?

The Pats dynasty is ending.

And when it does, who's got it better than us?

Who the **** is going to beat Pat Mahomes and Andy Reid once Brady/Bill are gone?

WTF is Brady even going to look like a season from now?

The Pats are ALREADY protecting Brady and running an Alex Smith offense.

.@chiefs blew the final 16 seconds of regulation. The @patriots are giving you the out to the sidelines. Take the underneath throw and have plenty of “clock” left to take another shot to the end zone. #BaldysBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/BGR0gn8AnJ

Mahomes is in his first full year as a starter.
Just have to tell yourself that he'll learn from this going forward.

This is classic Monday morning quarterbacking. For Mahomes at that point, the priority is getting the game to overtime when you’re at that stage with no time outs left. If you can take a shot at the end zone and win, you do it. But you don’t let a mistake beat you. So let’s say he hits Williams. Two possibilities: 1/ Williams ****s up and stays in bounds, gets tackled, game over. Or 2/ Williams gets out of bounds and then you’re still at the 10 and need to be throwing into what’s likely double or triple coverage in the end zone again, risking a pick and the end of the game.

Had Mahomes thrown a pick to end the game there, Reid would’ve been castigated and Mahomes probably would’ve been mentally crushed through the entire offseason. We have the single most aggressive QB in the NFL who has 3rd and short and chucks it 40yds downfield. There’s no part of me that will ever question his or Reid’s aggressiveness in a situation like this.

You must not have been in the chat, plenty of us were "Sunday-during-the-game quarterbacking"...

But many will try to cope with this loss by saying hindsight's 20/20...

Pat will get better at this.

I hope he studies what Brady, Manning and Rivers do with these quick passes that disable elite pass rushers.

God. Imagine Mahomes being able to extend plays like he does AND being able to switch his game at any point in time to destroy teams with quick passes.

Impossible to defend.

He's 1000% correct. But Pat is young...

Yikes. ****. Yeah that's on Mahomes.
