Irrelevant.
In a 10-7 game... the kicker who missed 3 kicks saying that the offense or DT could have done more is tantamount to him saying... "they should have scored so I wouldn't have been put in that position".
Despite those 3 interceptions, the defense held a pro football team to 10 points. Despite those 3 interceptions, Bono and co did enough to put the ball well within FG range for 3 attempts.
Don't misunderstand... I agree that the offense SHOULD have done more but that just wasn't the case and that is just how some football games go. It was up to Elliott to win us the game and HE choked. He is the last person who should be shifting blame.
Perhaps just a me thing but I wish, if he was gonna do an interview on the subject, that he would have just come out and owned it, apologized to the fans (for whatever that is worth), and left it at that. No calling out the offense or throwing dead Chiefs icons under the bus in any way.
