5 Things While You Wait for George's 10 Things
1. Well, that was a hell of a game. And one that I think will help this team in the playoffs. Thats as close to a playoff environment for Mahomes. In the long run this sort of loss helps - not hurts is. Plus, I took the Chiefs +3.5 and the over on a two pick parlay.
2. Once again the Chiefs high power offense takes teams off their game. They ignored Gurley, even with the lead, the Rams felt the need to score. Wow. 3. I'd like to see this game with LDT, I think our line did well considering who they were facing, but but face it we are thin up front in the middle and it showed. Oh, and Cam Irving is worth what we paid him. I thought he did well vs the best defensive linemen in the NFL. 4. I think we lost this game because we were gassed and didn't have Watkins. Conley played well, but I think a healthy Watkins changes things in a significant way. 5. The Chiefs defense is what it is, but it has never really bothered me. The flags are disturbing, but we have a defense that has gotten stops when they need them, can get after the QB, and get turnovers. Man if Berry does make it back, I love our chances. |

Agree with all of this except #5. When you have the lead with less than two minutes, you have to be able to get a single stop to put the game away. Rams had no time outs, and they marched right down the field for a TD with no resistance at all.
Defense has shit the bed twice in that situation this year. I said it in the game thread...fire Bob Sutton at the end of last year and this team is 11-0 right now.

If losing two games while scoring a combined 91 points doesn't really bother you...

Well, not like it wasn't against two pretty good teams on the road where we only lose by a FG.

Not Period. When you have the lead with less than two minutes left, the defense should be able to get a ****ing stop. Period.

They got stops and scored a TD. Patrick had 5 turnovers....and gave them 21 points. That was his take on the game anyways in his post game presser. He owned it as he should. We also wouldn't have been in this game with Alex Smith either....so just hope he learns from it. No reason to think he won't. 10 things could have happened in this game we could have done that could have won it, but the 5 turnovers were the biggest factor in the loss.

The fact that Mahomes had 5 turnovers and we were still in position to win this game says something. Occasionally we need the defense to perform just enough to help the team win. Twice the season it has failed to spectacularly.

Our defense is going to go down as one of the worst in NFL history - this is the first time a team has scored 50+ and lost - but yeah this was on Mahomes.
