The Chiefs seemed flat and emotionless..For thos at the game did they. .
 

Did they seem to be motivated on the sidelines?

..watching ta home they all seemed to be sitting quietly on the sideliens ...(aside from Tyreek and Mecole fighting with each other..)

didnt see Kelce, Mahomes, Jones, or HB with any energy in the 2nd half . .


didnt see any hype up huddles or sideline talk


I could be wrong but they seemed uninspired. .

They did. The fire was gone. They looked drained.

Kelce was definitely reserved today. Not much emotion after some big catches after the offensive slump.

Maybe the divisional sapped them more than we thought. They definitely didn't answer the bell in ot like I thought they would.

They legit came out of halftime with jobber face...

It's like they went to discuss adjustments and just knew they were ****ed or something.

You don’t have to create a new thread with each thought.

Have to wonder if something happened in the locker room at halftime… did Andy or EB have a heated exchange with Mahomes after that end of half play?

Considering how despondent the Chiefs looked in the second half on offense, you have to consider all possibilities.

Sideline reporter said Reid was "Extremely frustrated" with the end of half play. Wanted a throw into the ez.

How about you just take the free points after you already took your shot?

I doubt they yelled or screamed, they're more of a keep firing and move on group.

I mean, they were still up 11 points at half.

I saw some stat that showed teams almost always losing the game after winning in OT

This. Jesus, DTVietnam is going over the edge tonight.

What if bacon tasted like peanut butter?

What if dog was spelled CAT?

Do you think Mahomes had to poop in the second half?

Is Kelce’s girlfriend keeping him from being elite?

If my aunt had balls, would she really be my uncle??

Game is over DTVajayjay. We’re all upset, but not making nonstop threads about nonsense. Go to sleep, rub one out, pet your dog. Just QUIT MAKING THREADS ****FACE!!

You don't have to click on threads you don't want to read.

****

Except there's one possibility that not too many around here will ever consider and it's too bad too because I'm going to sleep quite well tonight while most Chiefs fan will feel like they got kicked in the nads.

Reid said "nice checkdown, Alex" at halftime coming off the field and that was all she wrote.

Maybe it's time to move on with the staff. The message gets stale.

This was my biggest concern going into the game. I think they left it all on the field against the Bills. The sad thing is they still should have won this game because the Bengals were pretty bad as well.

Vance Joseph then? This loss sucks, but firing the staff after the run we’ve just had is dumb. You must have already forgotten what it was like with horrible coaching, and poor drafting.

They seemed very fired up, IMO.

The first half was the loudest I've ever heard Arrowhead. My ears are still ringing. After we shit the bed on the last drive in the 2nd half, you could see a little puckering going on.

Then a quick 3 & out in the 3rd quarter and everyone knew it was going to be a game.

As the game went on, you could feel the air start to go out of the stadium.

I saw Mecole and Hill exchange unpleasant words with each other. Minute I saw that I didn’t feel great

I mentioned to my wife Kelce's demeanor on the bench. He was out of it. And Mahomes just went back and put on the coat and sat there. There was no fire.

The goal line stop before halftime and the 3rd and out to start the second half seemed to zap the energy.

But I was watching on TV, of course.

Reid needs to retire guys. He's getting that foggy eye look. The game is too big for him now. I love Andy, but nobody stays in the game forever.

Yeah, commissioner Goodell walked in with the head of the Genovese family and told them to take a powder.

kelce had a concussion but they ran the hurry up and the independant doctor didn't get a look he was woosy as ****

we all grieve differently..plus i havent slept since the games come on at 3 in the morning here..

and you def dont need to click my threads and I believe you can block me so u dont have to see my shitty threads/[post

11-2 run to end the year

find a fat pile of shit and **** it

I was told shaggy Shane didn't post here

The came out of the locker room like lifeless zombies and played that way.

He’s a ****

But that's 100% Mahomes fault. That's a situation where no matter what the coaches called, we should have ended up with points. Mahomes is the one who who for no reason at all threw a check down instead of throwing the ball out and kicking the FG. The coaches were right to try one more shot.

You could FEEL it change after the end of first half. Players coaches fans. That one play to Hill changed everything .

If we settled for 3 you morons would have cried to take a shot. Poor execution.

As a head football coach, situational football is key.

#1, you don't call a ****ing play where all patterns are not in the endzone. Not content to just **** that up, not only do we have a player whose route does not go into the endzone, but that player just happens to be Tyreek ****ing Hill.

Seems like anyone with a pulse would want this guy in the ez. I guarantee you if that's Clyde or McKinnon out there, Mahomes isnt tempted to give them a shot.

This is who Andy Reid is.

He just saw how nearly devastating FOUR points left on the field was against Buffalo and still turned his nose up at 3 free ones.

Here's the bottom line.

You had a shot to the ez. They defended it.

You'd like to take another play at 5 seconds, but because you are Andy Reid, and you cannot handle the complexities of simply throwing your challenge flag, and NOTBURNING A TIMEOUT BEFOREHAND, you yourself have taken away your opportunity to confidently take another play there with 5 seconds.

Recognize how your ineptitude has cost you, take the three points at home, and carry a 14 point lead into the lockers, to receive the ball in the third.

It's simple shit guys. It really is. Just not for Andy Reid.

Thus loss knocks another serious dent in the legacy of Andy Reid. Another 18 point collapse with the best player in the world leading your team.

Had he lost against the Bills, it's Arrowhead kicker curse, with the only head scratcher being 1st and 10 from the 16 and the ball is taken out Mahomes hands in favor of putting it in Blake Bell's.

This falls heavily on Andy Reids shoulders.

The worst part about losing is dipshits like you coming out of the woodwork to spew just pure bullshit.

Going all the way 2 years in a row, an extra game this year, 3 OTs.. This team was physically and emotionally spent in the second half..

Honestly, they all just looked dead tired and like they were ready for the season to be over.

I know that sounds crazy, but I think as fans many of us forget these guys are human beings. 4 straight years of overwhelming dedication and playing 20 or more football games in a season can take it's toll, both mentally and physically. Winning is great, but at some point you just run out of steam.

They ran out of gas, it's really that simple. The Bengals wanted it more and they took it. No bad officiating, no fluke plays. We just fell apart and they took full advantage.

First round bye would’ve been nice. Those early season losses might have hurt worse than we realized.

Really need to get that bye next year.

Now wait a minute here.

That's a bad excuse considering Bengals also had an extremely tough game against Titans where their QB was sacked 9 times.

Chiefs just couldn't adjust to what Bengals D did in 2nd half and that was the difference.

Taking a shot was fine. Completing a pass outside the endzone and letting time expire was the **** up.

I don’t think many of us would’ve complained about just taking the 3. We were beneficiaries of a similar situation against the Chargers on the road. Many here were pretty relieved that the Chargers didn’t take the points.

Yeah I think there's a lot of truth to this. I doubt they were looking forward to two weeks of Super Bowl hype and nonsense for the 3rd time in a row.

Every team left had the same challenges. Bullshit

This lead to the big MO change in the game. After they tackled Tyreek, their team sprinted towards the Exit to the locker room screaming and yelling, we walked to ours with our heads somewhat down. We never recovered those points or the emotional swing.

I blame that Applebee’s rap-country ****face for the flat 2nd half.

Every team didn’t go to 2 straight SBs…

That was game. Once Mahomes ran that bullshitty weird play it deflated the offense. They were moving at will and then to start the second half Mahomes couldn't complete a screen pass and the players were at each others throats. Something was said at halftime that wrecked the chemistry of the team.

The whole thing was embarrassing. Mahomes was shockingly bad, even worse than the Super Bowl last year.

Fact is he just crumbles in the biggest games,. Even in the SB we won he played like shit and we only won because Jimmy G was even worse.

I'm starting to think Mahomes is overrated. All the hype clouded my mind for so many years. Burrows is not flash he just does his job and stays cool and wins.

Embarrassed to be a KC fan today. 2 INTs, a fumble and 5 shitty completions in the biggest half of the year with the SB on the line. Notice when Hill can't get open he's screwed? Just lobs it up and hopes for the best but usually Hill comes down with it

**** you Patrick

Uh, starting with WASP Patrick was goddamn elite to end that game.

Please go.

You've said nothing but dumb bull**** like this in every one of your posts since you registered here. The only time you do post is about how embarrassed you are to be a fan of this team.

If sports is really causing you this much misery, you should probably consider adding some balance to your life.

If you're a troll who comes here whenever the Chiefs lose, well hey, whatever floats your boat.

Big games?

Entering today Mahomes held a 9/0 TD to INT ratio in the AFCCG. He currently sits at 12/2

For reference Rodgers is at 9/8 in the NFCCG. Brady is 21/17 in conference title games

So is the AFCCG a big game or is it not? Stop moving the goalposts

GTFO you piece of shit

Patrick sucked ass yesterday, but I'm still glad he's our QB?

**** him?

Gtfo dude.

There is a rumor that Reid and Mahomes got into a argument after the end of the first half. Reid wanted to kick a FG but Pat wanted to go for the TD. Something was said during half and Mahomes basically shut down. He showed no signs of leadership at all. He was mentally checked out

If that's true at all.....

How disappointing.

On the last drive of regulation, I even turned and commented to my buddy after the first play or two:

"They look determined but they have no fire. Their body language is bad"

No confidence. Scared of making a mistake.

You see it all the time. Momentum in sports is real.

It's the rumor he's starting

I would believe it if he threw his jersey into the crowd and walked away.

Yea, that would be strange. I mean how often have we seen Andy get cute and tricky at the goal line? Sometimes he looks clever and sometimes he looks foolish. That's football.

That either one of them wouldn't just shrug it off realizing that they had bigger things to worry about. I don't know. I'm going to stay skeptical about that one.

After 13 seconds why should he be scared though?

No doubt whatever they drank during halftime to rehydrate was spiked. Pats throws were off and the receivers couldn't catch. Clear evidence. Pretty sure Belechick had some thing to do with it as he wants to keep his dynasty legacy alive.

That's the biggest thing that haunts me about this game is why it happened.

The easiest explanation is that Patrick got rattled but that's just really bad if he gets that rattled that easily.

Whether or not this exact event actually occurred, it's pretty clear something got into Mahomes' head at an extreme level.

Something happened in that locker room at halftime, that much is obvious. Mahomes and Kelce both came out looking they couldn't give two shits about the game. Mahomes was running around like a dude who never played QB in his life. You can't tell me he's never seen 8 men in coverage before to the point where he literally couldn't complete a pass.

Very strange.

Mafia probably sent a couple goons to the locker room and told them they aren’t winning this game.

It would explain a lot. But it’s so damn uncharacteristic. Perhaps mahomes wearing this collapse is a good teachable moment for him.

That would be Roger Goodell

I did notice Patrick looked gassed the last couple games. Bags under his eyes like he's not sleeping and lethargic.

He's got too many irons on the fire.

Maybe they were doing blow with Lawrence Taylor at halftime for some extra adrenaline and they got too high.

Yeah - that was biggest change I noticed.

The defense stayed pretty fired up. But Mahomes and Kelce were just really reserved. And those two really are the guys that drive that bus emotionally.

It's possible that 4 years of grinding, being on top, being the best, the constant pressure, the constant doubt from others when you have a bad game, it all took it's toll somehow at halftime. Perhaps uncharacteristic things were said out of frustration in the locker room, who knows.

All I know is, we have NEVER seen this out of Pat. He's had bad halves of football, but this time he made Cassel look like a great quarterback. It's not like him. Something happened, we'll never know what.

Take some time off. We still have the best team in the AFC, but we're not alone at being great. The pressure is only going to mount more. It's a big boy game, and our guys are human. Maybe it'll be a good thing in the long run, knowing that the only reason you lost this game was because of yourselves, not the other team.

Though, I have to give it to Burrow, he was out of his mind on some of those scrambles.

Mahomes and the other Chiefs player have openly talked about being a dynasty and winning multiple Super Bowls… so if they are “fatigued” from the pressure of maintaining an 18 point lead at home vs an inferior opponent that’s pretty weak.

Makes no sense to me at all how this happened? You win you're in the SB. This team quit or what it's a huge ass mystery how they collapsed so bad.
You have the ****ing lead and still control at half. Just unbelievable.

Agreed. I wish they would've been asked what the **** happened? This loss will bother me for a long time. Hopefully they can make the SB again with Kelce and Hill.
