So many big plays at the end of the game. Went back and rewatched a clip of Fords play. Wow. I had forgotten the exact circumstances. Had it not been for that play we have slayed the dragon in the 4th quarter despite getting outplayed terribly form3 quarters. A few inches and a lot of stupidity. :deevee:

This is accurate, it was a complete team loss.

Offense : shut out in the first half, not sustaining drives, needed a 3 and a half minute drive to close the game, scored in 1 1/2 min. Offensive line was...offensive.

Defense : Played decent, considering. Terrible run D in the 1st half. 0 sacks. Dee Ford.

Special Teams : Reek running backwards for 12 years loss, Kickoffs were not as good as they had been. STs seemed to be pressing. Too many ST penalties.

Coaching : Reid went full Reidtard, at the worst time. The timeout he took at the end of the first half...NOT taking the time out in OT to help the defense get a breath...why does Reid always shit the bed in the biggest games?
Complete team loss.

Really is comical how the Chiefs find new ways to lose

Im already over it though. Great things to come.

Don’t do this to yourself.

Astros relieved me of all sports pain. Felt cursed before then. I just enjoy the process now.

**** you. Shut the **** UP.

Hopefully some good memes come out of this. Clark banging the drum was classic. Great video editing opportunity there.

Seriously. I had a ****ing blast yesterday. Wild swings of emotion. Can't ask for much more. Not to mention the game before.

The NFL is on ****ing fire

Ford made a mistake but the fact is, we aren't even playing this game if it wasn't for him this season. He was one of the few bright spots on defense this season.

I just checked the stats and he didn't even have a tackle, let alone a sack or even a legit pressure. How can you extend a guy that doesn't show up for the biggest game of the year? And how hard can it be to look down the LOS and see you are in the neutral zone? Back up, fool!

Lol

Come on Pete.

Thank you, Dee Ford.

Pat ****ed up PLENTY yesterday, but lining up offsides is a whole new level of stupid.

The Saints might disagree.

https://wdef.com/wp-content/uploads/...ence-fix-1.jpg

In b4 the, "The Rams still had to score to send it to overtime" BS logic.

I remember sitting up there watching the play thinking something didn't look right when both teams lined up. Couldn't put my finger on it. Play ended. Everyone is celebrating. Out of nowhere we hear, there's a flash on the play. Everyone goes quiet with a wtf look. Then the call. Son if a bitch.

The most because Chiefs moment I've ever experienced.

ROFL

It took him to long for one reason or another,wasted draft pick. You want a new contract show up for 1 god dam game ,this is dee fords game it will always be his game end of story. Did nothing for years and screws up cost us 39 fkin years of shit on one gd play.
Tag nothin if you cant show up for a title game how good are you. He would be first out the door along with berry huston time to move on from sutton as well. Overpaid low production players on D what a crock.

Fixed.

Might as well blow up the D now. Our supposed strength -- getting pressure -- doesn't work against the Pats. Ball comes out too quickly. Sutton is horrible, but we invest way too much money on D to get replacement level performances.

If you're gonna say *** you Dee Ford, say the same for Mahomes, who missed throws. Same for the entire offense who did jack squat the entire first half

People excusing this play and then deflecting are dead wrong. This isn't even a question of basic fundamentals and techniques, nor is it a questionable/sketchy call about jumping offsides either.

This is seriously as simple as setting yourself on the correct side of the ****ing football prior to ANY motion or a snap. It's inexcusable, and it cost the Chiefs a regulation time victory.

Wow can’t believe Andy called him out

6 year olds playing flag football know how to line up.

I wonder how many times Ford lines up offsides last night and it wasn’t called? Or any other player for that matter?

Then the refs wait until a game changing play is made to suddenly decide to call it.

Dee Ford is a soft, one dimensional player who flat out admits not to liking hitting people and spends way too much time being a non-factor: be it by having nagging injuries or from disappearing in big games.

This franchise absolutely cannot sign this guy to an extension.

Now I am afraid that Sutton will stay. If Andy thinks that one play cost this team and not the shitshow on D since the Titans playoff loss.

Come now..in this game, defense kept the team in the game in the first half giving offense plenty of opportunities to score at least once.
Had they scored once in 1st half Chiefs would have won.
Both offense and defense played well half of the game.
Plenty of blame for both sides.

This totally this.....

Get Speaks on Jenny Craig and get Ford out of here save the cap space for people that can do basic football shit like line up properly

You assume that the 2nd half would have played out exactly the same if Chiefs score some points in the first. Can't really predict that.
That is why plays towards the end of the game have so much more importance because a team can d!ck around for three quarters and just turn it on late. Mahomes gave us two opportunities to win when it mattered most, the D just methodically gave away the game.
Why is Brady going out of his way to gush about Mahomes and even said it after the game? He knows how dangerous Mahomes is when it really counts.

Can we say for sure that Brady didn't see the flag? If he did, maybe the play goes differently w/o it.

Then yur going to be disappointed, they will tag him.

Tag and Trade

Dude, NOBODY is excusing him, he clearly screwed up on a play at the end of the game that has lasting consequences. With that said, plays missed earlier in the game also has consequences that alter the game.

Can't blame one without blaming the others, they all add up to a loss. You all win as a team, you all lose as a team.

It's just so much easier for those who want to bitch and whine about losing to label it as 1 play, the " What if " mantra.

Saints got screwed! But with that said, there were many other missed opportunities that were left out there to put the game away!

It's reality, you and many others here, across the NFL world refuse to see what it really is!

If Hunt had any balls (and he doesn't), he'd have his staff video-up every "lined up offsides" (inside of the the length of a football) the Pats had and leak it on Social Media as some anonymous fan.

But alas, that would be the game within the game that few teams play...

Marcus Peters would have at least tried to fight the ref, not Dee Ford! Even if after the game...

Hmmmmmmmm...

Looking at the NFL's own rule book, I'd say one official decided to change the outcome of the game because you can't call one and at least not call the other.

Sorry Dee Ford, you should post this image and a copy of the NFL's rule book all over Social Media...

From: http://static.nfl.com/static/content...efinitions.pdf

PLAYER ON LINE
Article 2 A Player of Team A is on his line:
(a) when his shoulders face Team B’s goal line, and
(b) if he is the snapper, no part of his body is beyond the line at the snap,
(c) if he is a non-snapper, his helmet must break the vertical plane that passes through the belt line of the snapper.

Waiting for the NFL purists and excuse makers to tell me I'm wrong, it's a bad angle, or they weren't much illegally lined up...

So they could have called offensive tackle not lined up correctly and at worst it is an offsetting penalty?

I think here's the relevant thing: a player, after he has received a warning, enters into the neutral zone. It is a foul, even if he returns to a legal position prior to the snap without contacting an opponent or causing a reaction (movement) by an offensive player in close proximity.

Yes, illegal formation. But Patriots... Tackles like to inch back as much as they can to not get beat, in this case the Pat was cheating and the official let him.

It seems that the Chiefs player lack a certain level of football IQ or the coaches simply are unable to communicate (coach) what they want. All night long, the Patriots were in the proper alignment, called the right plays and made tackles and just as predicably, the Chiefs were not.

Well it might have been where the coaches wanted them, but I provided evidence that they were in an illegal alignment...

But hey, NFL officiating giveth (to the favored), and NFL officiating taketh away (from the non-so-favored)...

But yes, our players certainly appear to think tackling is optional. That is true.

And so it begins!!!

Kyle Shanahan said Dee Ford was suffering from knee tendonitis today and sat out the team portion of practice. It’s not considered serious and sounds like something Ford overcomes yearly. #49ers

LOL

GO **** YOURSELF SF AND FORD.

Wow.. he really needs that knee to get a good jump at the snap of the ball..

fixed

It’s going to be even better when the 49ers suck again and we get an early 2nd.

You can't really trust a highly paid QB that chooses to date an Asian MILFy pornstar.

This should not make me happy but it does.

**** Dee Ford.

2 playoff teams and a revamped team with a young quality QB. Won’t be easy for them.

If I had to choose, Jimmy G would be the last QB I’d Want from that division

Bingo

Picks 32 and 35 sound good :D

Even if a gay-bay land shark walked up and bit his head off, he still drew a flag last year and was a huge part of us missing the SB. Nothing will undo the damage he did to the team.

**** Dee Ford.

He's a real life Ray Finkle. Dee Ford should die of gonorrhea and rot in hell.

He’s nearly supplanted the kicker that shall not be named in Chiefs infamy.

The blue line isn't official either. You can tell the tv blue line is a bit past the ball. So it's not as egregious as it first appeared. But you know. What's past is past. He gone. Greener pastures and all.

The fact is it still stings. And knowing the NFL has built-in buffers of calling things one way, but not the other, still sucks for fans of less-favored teams. Remember the Steeler game a few years back, and all the non-calls we sufferd. Yeah, still stings.

Let's hope drafting Mahomes is the magic that puts us in with the cool "gets calls" (and non-calls) crowd.

I heard a story out of camp in San Fran that he lined up off sides and I started to laugh but then I had ****ing PTSD and got pissed off all over again... ****ing twat

I hope they enjoy their 80 plus million dollar one dimensional player that is completely worthless against the run....

Making a mistake in game is not the same as a mental error that costs your team the game.

Dee Ford lined up off-sides because his head was up his ass. The opponent didn't pressure him into it. He didn't miss a sack. We wouldn't be having this conversation if it was something like that. IT's a presnap penalty. An unforced mental error.

Did Mahomes get a delay of game penalty on the final drive? THAT would be comparable. Pointing out bad plays and equating them with a mind melting mental ****-up on the most crucial drive of the game is ****in' reeruned man.

This! It’s a lack of discipline, not a penalty committed in the heat of the moment.

Heard Mitch Morse has another concussion as well. It's funny looking back on the so called "experts" claiming we were dumb for getting rid of both of these turds.

Is it wrong to hope he tears an achilles ?

In both legs.

So put THAT in your piano and play it again, Sam.

No doubt, and I was at both those cold miserable games...

Still amazed Ford ended higher than Clark on the 100 list.

I had to look it up. The pictures are t really worth posting.

It’s imposibly inexplicable.

This is would be wording for if the offensive player is lined up on the LOS or not.

Section 20 Neutral Zone, Start of Neutral Zone, and Encroaching
NEUTRAL ZONE
The Neutral Zone is the space between the forward and backward points of the ball (planes). It starts when the ball is ready for
play. (See neutral zone infraction, 7-4-4)
ENCROACHING
A player is Encroaching (7-4-3) on the neutral zone when any part of his body is in it and contact occurs prior to the snap. The
official must blow his whistle immediately.
Section 21 Offside
OFFSIDE
A player is Offside when any part of his body or his person is in the neutral zone, or is beyond the free kick line, or fair catch
kick line, when the ball is put in play.
Exceptions: The snapper may be in the neutral zone provided he is not beyond the line (3-18-2).
The holder of a placekick for a free kick may be beyond the free kick line (6-1-3-b-1).
The holder of a fair catch kick may be beyond the fair catch kick line (11-4-3).
The kicker may be beyond the line, but his kicking foot may not be (6-1-3-b-2).

I noticed him lining up in the neutral zone all season. Surprised it wasn't called more, just sucks it cost the team a Super Bowl appearance.

I don't blame Garpollah one bit. If I looked like him and had the same kind of fame as him I'd be banging pornstars both young and old, left and right! There ain't no shame in that. That's called "living the life of a ****ing king, bitch!"

100% Dee Ford’s fault and I can’t forgive him. The biggest play of the season and he makes a presnap peewee error.

I have the feeling that Andy make the decision right there and then that he’d never play another snap as a chief.

OP is a coward. You should say that to dee fords face and then come back to me

When ward intercepted that ball? For a half second, the entire stadium/ country thought that game was over.

Gut punch.

**** you and Dee Ford right in your b boy haircuts, chump.
