Chiefs Don't blame the refs - Page 15

Our defense was absolute horrendous shit.

And we don't have a championship quarterback. We have a ****ing choke artist.

More often than not, when you're talking about a ball where either the receiver or the D-back has to stop, there's expected to be some incidental contact and borderline PI on both sides as the two jockey for position.

When you're talking about a guy running at full sprint, that's a totally different story. You're not supposed to shove a guy going at full sprint when the ball is in the air. Johnson knows that. He did it intentionally. And so there is no borderline. It should have been OPI and it wasn't. The team should move on, but at the same time, they shouldn't be forced to because the refs don't do their job.

How many thimes did the Texans stuff the Chiefs runs on third and short situations?

In all honesty, I don't remember. I do remember them stuffing us on 2nd and short a lot.

At worst, they stop us and are forced to use a timeout.

But, this is simply one area where we shit the bed today.

Just one example.

The offense didn't make a play when they needed to.

Neither did the defense.

Plain and simple.

This sums it up pretty well. It was a team effort in the loss. And by team, I mean, offense, defense, special teams, and refs.

This was the Offenses turn to WIN this game for the team. They have been riding the coattails of the D all season. This time, the offense needed to step up, get the first down and keep the ball moving. The fact that we ran the World's worst 3rd and 2 play only accentuates the FAIL of that series.

Was the Defense absolute shit yesterday? Yes, without a doubt. That only adds emphasis to my earlier point that you run it on 3rd down (clock), and if you don't get it, you run it again on 4th. I feel reasonably confident, given how we ran yesterday, that we could have picked up two yards in 2 plays. Worst case: You don't get the 1st down, the Texan's have a shorter field to score, and take less time doing it. We then have more time to execute a final drive of our own.

Anyway, a lot of 2nd guessing here, but that last offensive series made me want to puke.

I think everyone has summed up the numerous reasons we lost the game. But I think our guys played a damn good game against a very tough team. We should have won it, but we played hard and came up short in a few areas and were on the wrong end of at least one non-call by the refs.

We looked like a pretty well rounded football team yesterday. We converted third downs. We scored offensive touchdowns. The Texans defense may be a prime suspect, but we played well.

The coaches said they needed to work on converting third downs this week and we did. We should have won, and it sucks that we didn't, but there are quite a few positives to take away from this game. Now we need to work on getting it done in clutch situations.

This game is over, time to think about next week.

The defense definitely lost this game.

Sometimes you "win" the game and sometimes the enemy "loses". And then, there are games you "lose" because the enemy "wins".

This one had a little of both.

Houston is what we use to be, all offense no defense. I don't think this game is an indictment on the Chiefs defense, Houston scores on most everyone. You just have to be able to consistently score and move the ball to beat that team.

I don't disagree with this.

It's interesting, though, how well their offense does in the second half of games. I wonder why.
