The "problem" with exercises like these, both in thinking about sports or life in general, is that people tend to post script to get the result they wanted. For instance, to use one of your examples, what you are or at least could be alluding to is that if Eric Fisher doesn't tear his tendon, the Chiefs win the SB that year. The reality is, we have no way to know if that was true or not. We know that a healthy Fisher would've given us a better chance, but that's all we really know.
So basically the one thing we pretty much know for sure is that if Dee Ford isn't offsides, we win that AFCCG. However, contrary to popular (around these parts, anyway) theory, there is no guarantee that we beat the Rams. And, just to cover your top 3 examples, Tyreek wasn't particularly close to scoring even though the play started close to the end zone. Playing with that one is akin to "Gordon should've been sent home " in '14. Nothing good came or would've come out of those scenarios. |

Most def: Dee Ford lines up onsides ‘8 AFCCG
The Chiefs would have won the Super Bowl that year. That said, not sure how hungry they would have been in 2019. |

Do we win the super Bowl in 2020 if Fisher doesn't get hurt? The game would be closer but not sure about winning.
I agree with whoever suggested you cannot win every season. If KC wins in 2018, there's not telling whether they win in 2019. Also, no telling if they beat the Rams in 2021. We do know that KC made back-to-back Super Bowls, and had a great chance to repeat in 2020. That's the game I regret the most. Even more than 1995 or 1997. Repeating would have made last year's failure less bitter. Last edited by Gary Cooper; 01-13-2023 at 08:34 AM.. |

Bernard Pollard does not injure Tom Brady's knee in 2008.
Matt Cassel never starts a game in his career. KC Drafts Mark Sanchez in the 2009 Draft.

Yep. Especially since, it would have been GAME OVER because Brady threw an interception on that play. **** Dee Ford FOREVER! What's so satisfying when we beat the 49'ers, and him, the following season in the Super Bowl!

We were winning that game 28-24 with less than a minute to go. Even Bob wouldn't have been able to **** that up.
