Not really. I was watching a video of an NFL analyst that breaks down almost every single statistical aspect of the game. Kendrick Lewis was responsible for over 130 yards in receptions allowed in 6 or 7 catches and 2 TDs, which is twice the amount of the next worst offender, Dunta Robinson, who gave up 4 catches for 60+ yards and a TD. Sean Smith did give up quit a bit of yardage, but only two passes were completed on him, one being that crazy catch, so I won't be too hard on him.

The other defenders were, actually, half-way decent. Hand it to the Colts offensive staff. They knew who to target when they were in the game and just crushed them both.

The kicker has one job.

Kick.

If he had a ****ing problem with the shoe on his plant foot as he claimed, WHY DIDNT HE CHANGE THE ****ING SHOE AFTER THE FIRST KICK?

Its a lie. There was no problem with the shoe. Guy was struggling to make PAT attempts earlier in the season.

He had 3 shots at very makeable field goals even for the most average NFL kicker. He blew every one of them and we lost by 3 points.

**** that guy. Seriously. Heard he tried to hang himself but couldn't manage to kick the stool out from under himself.
Wrong. Flowers, Cooper, and Smith all played fairly average for CB standards. Robinson and Lewis were awful and the Colts were torching them the whole game. Abdullah was actually pretty good from what I saw. I will agree, Berry didn't perform at the level we'd all expect, but he wasn't the reason we lost. It was 200 yards and 3 TDs given up by two defensive non-players.

Really? I don't remember that.. what did he say when he went to Dallas?

Wasn't he on one of KC's AM radio stations 5-6 years ago? Did anyone catch it? If so, how'd it go? That final field goal, the crowd's reaction and that dude's face is an image that has stuck with me forever...and I was only 11-12 years old, pissed off and punching shit when it happened. I've always wanted to see/hear that asswipe's thoughts on that shit... the only thing I remember reading about from the interview is that he wasn't able to wear the same shoe that he was used to wearing or something and that it was the first time that he had worn that type of shoe.

Actually, the Colts game was Elliott's last game in the NFL. He was at Dallas before he came to the Chiefs.

I saw an interview with him once. He basically said the only thing he could say, something like "I hated the misses, but it was hard to kick out there. The other kicker missed two out of three himself."

The interesting thing about Elliott was that he actually had a good career for the Chiefs on field goal up until that miss. He was slightly more accurate in his two years in KC than Nick Lowery was.

It's like playing with 10 defenders when he is out there.

Lord....please don't let Sutton play Lewis in the playoff game in Indy.

He will forever be known as the safety that shall go nameless.

In fact...can we get a filter put in place?

Hmm... That's interdasting. I did not know that.

I've always thought the kicker that shall go unnamedt has been short-changed when it comes to post-season Kicker biffs and their notoriety for them.... That Gary Anderson guy seems to get all the credit. Heck...he was even a subtopic on "How I Met Your Mother." You'll never see the kicker who has the same first name as this chick who was a royal slut a few grades behind me on a show like "How I Met Your Mother."

It wasnt ALL Lewis' fault. Chiefs had a 28pt lead and choked. We didnt touch Luck the defense didnt blitz much.

Those missed FGs were all LE's fault.

Wasnt LE missing FGs prior to that game...he was kinda on a cold streak and that carried over into the playoffs. I was like 10 I barely remember specifics.

I vaguely remember that, too. He was running a little cold.

The weird thing about Elliott is that he had trouble with extra points. His FG percentage was actually pretty good for his era, but his extra point percentage was terrible, both with the Chiefs and the Cowboys. He was a 95.8% extra point guy, compared with 98.9 for Lowery, 98.8 for Morten Andersen, 99.2 for Gary Anderson, and so on. Granted, he hit 24 out of every 25 extra points, but that's four times the miss rate that the top kickers had.

Elliott's career field goal rate was actually also terrible, but that's because he struggled at Dallas. Both years with KC he was pretty good on field goals. I wonder why.

You could say the same thing about the team LE was on.


The team screwed up too much and had to kick field goals. If they didn't choke in the redzone they wouldn't of need LE to kick.

Yeah, I tend to view a one-touchdown offense as being in the same realm of futility as a 45-point defense. It's nearly impossible to win with either.

BossChief 01-07-2014 10:56 PM
Hopefully, these guys can find a way to mix the defense from before the bye with the offense from after the bye.

We do that next year, were golden.

I understand the viewpoint I was just more trying to point out in a previous post where the choke job by the defense was an entire team effort whereas LE's FG misses were at his fault alone. LE makes the FG's , the Chiefs win the game. Obviously on Sat, if the Chiefs defense doesn't stop luck PERIOD, they would eventually lose the game.

EIther way...both resulted in same outcome......**** this god damn team.

Nobody in their right mind believed this was THE year. Yeah, a playoff win would have been great, broken the drought, capped off a great rebuilding year, etc. etc. But this was never THE year. Lewis was a liability all season, and followed true to form during the post season. But, his failure did nothing more than make the inevitable playoff loss come sooner.

The kicker who cannot be named cost us a Super Bowl.
