This loss is on us. Nothing more.

May get a chance to make amends in the playoffs.

Thank God it’ll be 2023, because apparently we can’t beat them in 2022.

I would say they are equal. One team makes mistakes, Kelce fumble, that’s enough to sway the game.
Tackling was atrocious as well

100% loss on KC ****ups.
Bungles played a nearly perfect game and KC made mistakes. Ballgame.

The loss was because our DL and OL isn't good enough and we got out coached on both offense and defense. Out coached badly on Defense.

Only head to head. Their offensive line struggles against other opponents.

Blaming the refs is popular...
Sticking with the run
Not getting to the other team QB
Kelce not fumbling
4th down go with Mahomes instead of FG

would have done a lot to win the game...
collectively or singular

The guys(except Pacheco, I think he'd be bouncing around if the world was ending)had bad body language throughout the whole game. I wonder if the supposed sickness going around had anything to do with the outcome.

I had this game as a loss anyway, and even though my blood pressure is probably up, I'd rather go into the playoffs with a loss towards than end of the season than go in on a long winning streak. I'm fairly confident we win out.

Yeah. Not arguing.

Wylie is ****ing stupid garbage and I guess it's hard to get ANYONE off the street because the conventional wisdom is they'd somehow be worse than Wylie?

Is there a LT out there that we can plug in on the Blind Side who can be even serviceable so we can kick OBJ out to the RT, where he can actually play?

I mean, we struggled to score against Donald and the Rams, both Charger games were close and we lost to them at Arrowhead last year...

Teams that have the ability to get pressure on us with 4 and drop 10 with a spy are able to give us fits.

We NEED tackles that can give Mahomes more time and keep him from getting "happy feet" late in the game, kinda like what saw in this one.

What 30 dropbacks and 15 hurries??

Not acceptable.

Fact.

Please post more.

100% accurate.

**** the fumble and missed FG...we got straight punched in the mouth on both sides

Extremely weak PI call on that interception. Followed by a weak roughing penalty. That was a big swing early.

Of course the Chiefs still had plenty of chances and blew them.

Agreed.

Mods, feel free to merge this with the Venting thread

You'll need to be more specific about which of the other 79 venting threads you'd like to be merged with.

They made mistakes too but they know what it takes to finish off the Chiefs. Without those mistakes this one looks a lot uglier.

Those early penalties set the tone. Don't think those calls weren't in the mind of the Chiefs defense for the rest of the game.

Simple answer why we lost: you don't get pressure on QBs like Burrows and Allen, you will lose.

They are too good and have too many weapons to sit back and throw all over.

That's it, nothing more nothing less.

We lost by 3, not by 13 or 23.
