Official Game Day Thread- Week 1 Chiefs @ Pats

[festy1986]

Does this dude own pro football focus?

 

[Ross12]

Butler didn't touch him, he was shoved because he was in the way. Fail by the NFL.

That's what I don't get, I don't see how it's pass interference to simply just exist where the ball is being thrown to. Isn't that the point of playing defensive back?

 

[condon84]

Richards is horrible lol

 

[slash83]

Butler continuing his pre season play

 

[stcjones]

Would have to agree....D has been shaky at best again this year

This defense has been real ****.

No excuses

ould

 

[Bruins29]

So basically our defense sucks as usual.

Except for last year when it diddnt.. But you should know that. Well, then again it is you.

 

[Froob]

So basically our defense sucks as usual.

They gave up the least amount of points last year lol..

 

[Mikla]

You can blame the refs all you want, but the defense did not look all that good in spite of that...

 

[ScottishPatriots]

Alex Smith 16/19 128 yards 2TDs

Just letting him throw short stuff all the way down the field

 

[mitsudriver]

So basically our defense sucks as usual.

Like last year when they led the league in scoring defense

 

[JackBauer]

Why is Richards playing so much?

 

[reflexblue]

Damn it, i think back to the begining of this drive when it was 3rd and long and we rushed three and drop the rest and smith comleted an easy completion underneath to get the first down. I didn't undestand that defensive call. Once kc made that they rolled.

 

[luuked]

The Butler penalty changed the potential outcome of this game. Very real possibility the Pats lose now. Chiefs have 2 shots to either take the lead or tie.

rofl

 

[Joey007]

Frustrating, you know this could be a 24-7 game right now.

Jordan Richards late to geti nto the flat

 

[n1997y]

A half of horrendous officiating to artificially keep the game close to keep the ratings up for the 2nd half.

along with a rather uninspired defensive effort. Matty P not showing his hand?

 

[JayNM]

First and last drive were pretty poor, the rest between was pretty good for the defense.

Second half will be interesting. Both coaches are really good at changing and adapting in the second half. Feels like it shouldn't be this close

 

[Midship]

That was definitely a penalty on Malcolm, but not the way the game had been called up to that point. My biggest gripe with the NFL/football as a sport is how subjective it is from an officiating standpoint and how much of an impact it has on (seemingly) so many games. Nothing is perfect I guess

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

Well let's hope for a better seocond half. Alex Smith having better numbers at the half than tom's ridiculous. The defense has to be aggressive and win their battles

 

[Ring 6]

Rodney has lost his mind saying he'd prefer Kelce over Gronk in literally any context.

No he didn't he said split wide but Gronk is a better TE.
