I mean ****, it was just a loss to a really good team in their barn. It happens. I'd like to see some breakdowns to see if there were more guys getting abused on D than I saw but apart from Sorensen just looking too damn slow and tentative, I didn't think anyone else was obviously awful. We had a shitload of man coverage and when Goff had 3+ seconds to throw, he hit 'em. That's gonna happen with a good QB throwing to a good pair of WRs working in man. We had to pick a poison and by the end our rushers were gassed and we had nothing left to give. A play needed to be made that wasn't and that's that.
It's football - it happens. I don't see a 'blame' here.

Rams got 21 off Mahomes turnovers, while the Chiefs got 14 off Goff turnovers.
If we were to take away those points off of turnovers, the final score would have been 37-33, Chiefs.
Still giving up too many points though.
But I still feel like they were playing too much zone in the first quarter.
