Can’t believe how stupid the 4th down playcall was

[RunKC]

4th and 3 from the 39, 8 mins left. Offense struggling all day, defense dominating Jameis with 5 sacks and 3 INT’s.

The Browns did not get in the redzone one time

Ability to pin the Browns deep in their own territory with a 14 pt lead and 7 ish mins left and they go for it.

Unbelievably stupid. Unreal

The funny thing is if it was 2nd quarter in 7-7 game he punts.

In 2023 we looked equally unimpressive in the second half.

We didn’t limp in that game, guys deflected catchable balls for interceptions and New England scored on two short fields. We knew as long as we dumped Toney and Moore we would improve, and we did (though it took 2 weeks). That was a more commanding win than this game and we actually lost the turnover battle that day

Everyone is healthy? WTF?

DHop and JuJu are possession receivers at this point in their careers, not game changers at their position. Worthy is a rookie.

History says that reason most back to back SB teams lost the 3peat was injuries. Losing our #1 receiver (Brown) for 90% of the year and losing Rice(WR#2) for 80% of the year. Losing Pacheco for 60% of the year. hurt our chances for a 3 peat.

This is posted with the benefit of hindsight. People are completely forgetting how this place was in December of last year to the point I’m about to get banned for bumping threads.

It was looking bad, no one can deny that. They really only had the Cincy game to get right but all the players after the SB win said it was the cincy game that got them back on track.

And even then, there were folks here upset because had to rely on 6 field goals for the comeback and only beat a Burrowless Cinci by one score.

The Super Bowl win has just erased how grim this place was in December.

If the Tackles aren't ass, none of it would matter.

Yeah, a lot of "fraud defense" comments after the Packers loss, and then of course the wheels falling off Christmas Day... in between, I think the Patriots win was almost a passive aggressive "well, they didn't **** it up," and I'm sure the mood was less than stellar at halftime.

Yeah, we can NOW say we had an elite defense last season, but that wasn't largely the belief at this point last year... and I remember because I was surprised how little people were talking about them after what they did to the Eagles (much less calling them frauds soon after).
