Patriots game...major key injuries, Davis' critical fumble, Berry getting schooled by Gronk. Hali dropped an INT that hit him in the hands...and god awful clock management. Controllable mistakes made the difference...Patriots didn't make mistakes.
Steelers...7 drops by WRs, Smith missing Hill on a sure TD, Kelce drop, Refs calling the first holding penalty of the 2nd half to remove points...having your starting run defense on IR against Bell.
The repeating theme is Chiefs have had some of their best players out during the post-season...and they make critical mistakes at the worst time.

That missed opportunity to Hill wasn't the only opportunity that Alex Smith missed.
