Other GMs in the league have seen what 95 brings to the biggest games. He's had plenty of playoff games.

The trade offers weren't what we wanted on his first negotiation, and they won't be what we want now.

Maybe a shitty franchise that desperately wants asses in seats for a reg season hero, but I don't see anyone that stupid outside of Mark Davis, and there's no way we trade him in the AFC West.

This game absolutely matters. We don't need any time to tell. We lost the #1 seed and now must hope for another team to give it back. We got our D exposed and there might or might not be time to fix it. When we do win the superbowl, it will be THIS game that shined a light on our problems and lit a fire under our asses to run the table and correct the flaws exposed today. so yes, this mattered.

Mmm. I like the way you think.

On your point 4...the 34 yard pass to gray which bailed us out of 3rd and long, but was called back because of "lineman blocking downfield...the OL was BEHIND the line of scrimmage. Refs were bailing the begals out.

This was huge. If any loss was going to motivate, it's this one. A payback game with playoff type atmosphere both teams want the game so bad, and to lose it, and lose the 1 seed to boot, yeah that's Big-time slap to the face wake up call material.

I've never seen Mahomes so angry on the sidelines that he slammed his helmet. He wanted this one badly.

Agreed with most of the op post but this... Last year should have left plenty of bad taste and motivation. There's no good explanation for the lack of fight on defense and the lack of focus and production on offense. We are still soft af and not going to win another bowl playing like this.

Lot of those guys on the team are new.

Like smack talker Reid lol.

So it wasn’t horrific. It wasn’t great but it wasn’t bad. Words have meaning.

I understand the sentiment and a lot of things have happened in each loss that mystify and frustrate but it’s not the end of the world. In all likelihood this loss won’t matter come week 17 and if it does then I hope they’ve learned enough from the three losses this year to overcome. Not worried about the Chiefs at all. Wish they had won but I doubt they lose again the rest of this season.

Chris Jones earned his million dollar bonus already. He's done for the year. Some guys only play hard when there's a contract year or bonus on line.

This loss won't matter week 17? WTF?

I let the hype of this season for Jones get to me. I expected 95 to show up this game and he was invisible all day long.

The only time he stood out was when he got absolutely owned by a backup te on a run block.

It was exceptionally sad. This beast that is such a game wrecker, had zero effect on the most beat up quarterback in the league.

Yet their 3 man rush can get immediate pressure on Mahomes. It's maddening.

All of this is correct. KC will not beat Cin as long as they can't get to Burrow. Nothing has changed since last season in that regard. Meanwhile, Cin can seemingly get to Mahomes with ease. KC will not beat Cin as long as that is the case. Nothing has changed since last last season in that regard. Cin beating KC is no fluke. It's a thing now and there are consistent reasons for that.

The "good" thing is the reasons are identifiable. If KC wants to win another Super Bowl, they need to find a way to fix them. Otherwise, the results are not going to change.

My point is, home field is not going to matter against the Bengals. They are clearly in our heads now, and for good reason. Them beating us is no fluke. Would you feel comfortable in the playoffs drawing Cin at any time or venue? I wouldn't.
