do you know what we would have done with that good field position? I'll help you

run run swing pass punt

result: 0 points

Why the TO? Stupidest call of the game IMO. I think the Pats go 3-and-out without the TO, and we have the ball at midfield at the worst. I knew when we took the TO it was going to backfire.

Only thing I could think of was maybe looking/waiting for a replay to see if it was a safety and then challenge the play?

Exactly, we had momentum and killed it. Did them a favor.

Well, this administration has been a bit unforgiving to new players. Medlock is a good example. Why draft a kicker if he misses one FG and is effectively gone?


I do agree, if we draft them why not play them. On the job training!

McGraw is a friend of the Edwards family .. Surtain & McGraw both blew it ... And yes it helped the Patties too win ...

The Chiefs sold out to stop the run the first two plays. It is pretty clear they are going to do it again. The Pats probably figured they would get a couple yards at most by trying to run again. The Pats figure, why not go maximum protection, and see if Randy Moss can beat single coverage? If he's covered you punt from deep in your endzone, just like you would by running.

Gun counted on Belichick to be stupid. Gun practically forced the Pats to take a shot down the field. Then we act surprised.

One of the things a good coaching does is to keep the other team guessing. We don't even try do that. We telegraph 90% of what we are trying to do. Our coaching staff willfully concedes a whole aspect of the game. They contribute zero to the mental and strategic aspects of football.

They called a timeout because there was going to be a quarter break if they didn't. That would have given the Patriots even MORE time to think about what they wanted to do.

:shrug: Maybe. I knew we were screwed as soon as we took the TO though.

:clap:

I honestly think the only reason McGraw is on this team is because he's Herms friend.

Same reason why this Jones guy who plays G for the Chiefs is on the team.

Or Ron Edwards as well.

It's plain and simple. Surtain blew the coverage and let Moss run free.

Of course Belichick did the exact same thing to us with the Devard Darling play. Gave huge chunks of yards to an offense that could not get them absent unneccessary risk from the defense.

Both defensive calls were very very stupid.
