Official Post Game Thread - Chiefs Beat the Pats

[farn]

They also blew the first challenge which was BOTH OPI and short of the line to gain

I didn’t like the CHOICE to challenge at that point.. and it bit NE... needed that challenge (or, better still, the correct call right away).

77 yards on 21 carries (discounting the Brady scrame)....KC is one of the WORST run defenses in the LEAGUE

I thought there were numerous players who weren’t wearing their uniform properly either.

But it should have been overturned and it was a 3rd down conversion.

The notion that the refs shouldn't be held accountable because you should be so good you can overcome their incompetence is a dumb take. Like, really, really dumb.

They should be suspended. Just awful

 

[Gronkowski123]

Couldn't run against the worst run defense. Offense is atrocious, worst in league..dorsett, Myers, Harry, lacosse, Watson, Michel all useless.

People would rather see him catch a pass like a real wide receiver.

Who cares ?

Kelce is not even close to be a real TE to the point where even BB refuses to call him one ? You think anyone cares ?

As long as they can manufacture ways to use his skillset who cares how it happens

Can't get open. But he is pretty good with the ball in his hands. So they need to find ways to get him the ball. Just like someone said, he's like the new CP. Not ideal for a 1st rounder, but that's what he is.

Big game. Home field. Historic loss.

 

[Kontradiction]

Most of them are older. The NFL needs to start thinking of making age a BFOQ if the game is moving too fast for the current crop.

The refs are the mvp this season!
How the f* do you miss that play? That should have been a scoring TD review, when in doubt just call the **** TD and you can overturn it.

I am tired of nfl officiating, they suck.

 

[Gronkowski123]

That quick screen to Edelman was absurd. Our first down playcalling decisions make no sense. We always lose on first down. And if they blitz Tom, were screwed

 

[luuked]

After missing 2 months on PUP I consider this a lost season for him. Hopefully his latest injury isn’t severe and maybe he can help us a little down the stretch. Next year I expect him to be a bigger part of the offense. Just that 1 td he caught today he showed glimpses of the ability to make defenders miss and the power to get those extra yards. A damn shame the refs couldn’t get the call right.

Am still absolutely confused about their approach with him. On a team that lacks physical talents in the red zone he doesn't get any designed plays ?

 

[QuantumMechanic]

Yeah that was just a good play by Breeland

It was. I do wish Edelman had extended is hands to make the catch rather than settling in to catch it at his body. He may have been able to catch it.

Dude...drop the chalupa. Don't end it this way

Sony is looking like the back that can get what the line gives him but no more. Last years O line was great in the run game and may have made him look better than he is. He’s far to easy to take down on initial contact.

I like to give guys time, and I thought he showed some promising signs in the preseason, but it’s hard to not think what we see is what we get at this point, and what we get right now is pretty poor. He had a couple of attempts today where I felt like he was almost folding himself into the tackle just to get it over with, it was atrocious.

But the line is awful now so who knows.

 

[slash83]

I gotta force myself to look at the positives. Defense is legit and played damn good football today. Team has fight in em, they’re 10-3 for as bad as they’ve looked as of late of offense.

Buffalo lost, Texans lost, NE still controls their own destiny for the division and the 2 seed.

Use him on some deep shots. The separation may not be there but he does have the size to possibly win those 50/50 balls.

 

[Ununcle]

Did you even watch the game?

I did. Some of the calls and none calls were so egregious, I'll have to question whether or not I'll continue to invest the time. I've already enjoyed the Pat's unrivaled success and I always will. But if the football world is going to sit back and watch and celebrate absolutely bogus and borderline phantom play, due to the utter hatred of our success, I'm out. I'm OK with a bad call here and there but this was down right cheating (what they accuse us of). The Pats were already on the way down, the league didn't need the refs to force us out the door.

 

[DaBronxPats14]

I never make excuses but I will echo what everyone has posted here that officiating was atrocious. They should swallow their whistles (literally) and let a play play out. Boger Curse lives on!
