Chiefs The last play... Hail Mary?!?!

Coogs · 12-21-2009, 12:01 PM

I know this has been talked about in other threads, and maybe this is a repost thread, but I really don't care.

I watched the game on a streaming site, and the quality of the stream sucked bawls. It was better than nothing, but not much. On the last play, the vidio froze up right after the snap, and then jumped to the point after the play was over. I didn't see a replay of that play 'til late last night on ESPN.

I know most of you were saying it was a "Hail Mary", but I thought you were just probably exaggerating a tad. Damn, was I ever wrong! And after 12 or 13 hours to digest that play, I am still just dumbfounded.

That may be the single worst play I have ever seen in the NFL. And I mean... EVER!

Hell, the play before we made 15 yards on an out pattern in 4 seconds. Another one of those would have put us at the 12 or so with 2 or 3 seconds still left on the clock. An incompletion on that same out would have left the same amount of time from the 26 at 2 or 3 seconds.

If that single play does not cause the players of the Chiefs, and/or the brass of the Chiefs to go WTF... then we are doomed.

Worst decision ever by a HC or OC. And for Cassel following such a stupid call, then I have to agree with whichever radio personality that said Cassel = Grbac.

That play was utter fugging FAIL!

Just one more jab in the side of Chiefs fans nation wide.

Yeah that play was god awful.

**Rain Man** · 12-21-2009, 12:05 PM

I too was surprised that it was a lob ball. I think there was time for two passes into the end zone. Maybe with 7 seconds left the defense would just play zone on the goal line and render routes useless? Dunno.

I would have been less displeased with it if the hail mary pass had actually landed in the end zone. Throwing a hail mary pass out of the end zone doesn't seem very productive. It's more like a fail mary pass.

Fish · 12-21-2009, 12:06 PM

His "Hail Mary" hit the damn crossbar. From 26 yards out. Cassel's pass went higher in the air than the horizontal distance it traveled.

Fail. Fail. Fail.

What a shit way to end the game. Clown college.

You can pretty much bet
this game will be played all week on NFL Network

rothlessburger threw a strike in the corner of the endzone to win the game at the same part of the field, he should as shit wasn't going to throw up a lawn dart like cassell

From the 26 yard line, anything that resembles a Hail Mary pass is just absurd. Even if it comes down in the endzone for an attempted catch. Hell, I would have rather they threw something to Charles at the 10 and let him try to run it in from there if they were just going to give up and heave it up like they did.

**Bowser** · 12-21-2009, 12:12 PM

There was someone wide open, and I do mean WIDE ASSED OPEN, to Cassel's left around the 10 yard line by the out of bounds marker. I was in the opposite endzone, so I couldn't make out who it was. But whoever it was, he was doing all he could to get Cassel's attention outside of shooting him with a paint ball. Anyone see who the receiver was?

**morphius** · 12-21-2009, 12:12 PM

7 seconds is normally considered 1 play, so going to the end zone is the right call. Throwing it into the cross bar on the other hand...

I didn't want to believe him. But I think I am going to have too.

Doink.
Game Over.

**The Franchise** · 12-21-2009, 12:15 PM

I never understood why teams don't throw 5 WRs out there......and have 4 of them run to one side of the endzone while the other WR goes to opposite side. Maybe you can catch the defense napping and have single coverage on the one WR who runs to the opposite side of the endzone.

I hate plays where they just lob it up to a group of 7-8 players. That shit hardly ever works.

They just ran a 4 second play. Throw the same damn pass again. Gain 10 or 12 yards or be incomplete. It ain't rocket science.

And a fugging Hail Mary from the 26.... come on man!
