Someone explain that 3 and 2 bomb?

[BlackOp]

Chiefs didnt need points in that scenario...they needed 2 yards and a first down. Not only that, an incompletion stops the clock.

Two plays to get 2 yards with a fresh Hunt and the game is over...but they went for a low percentage play for no reason. One they have repeatedly missed on for the past few months..

That is, by far, the worst play call of the past few years. It's not a mistake a championship team makes... mind-numbingly stupid from every angle.

I think that was on Patrick… Checked out of a run.. Did he say so in the presser?? Haven’t looked through this thread..

lol the coach said the playcall plan was for AOC just to burn time and throw it away on the last play.

Yes or no?

No further questions, your Honor

Cross exam:

Did or did not the Raiders have an unforced turnover to lose their chance of kicking an easy game winning FG? Edit: Maybe it was further. I read the 35 post and that has been challenged.

No further questions.

I was in row 7 right in that corner. 3rd and 2 man up no safety we kept 9 in to block and he was open. Block it and a better Throw and it’s easy

Argue the play call all you want. But throwing in the incompletion stopping the clock is stupid. The clock stopped a whole 3 seconds sooner than it would have anyway.

It looked like Worthy could have dived and got his hands on it or am I wrong??

I was assuming we were going to get a pick 6. Haven't won with one of those in awhile.

But is wasn't easy...and they were blocking so poorly that KC had to use a LG at tackle. It played out exactly how nearly every passing attempt had played out all day...Mahomes hurried then incomplete.

[TambaBerry]

I expect our 3 time super bowl winning goat QB to be able to make that easy pass.

This was a great decision in a vacuum, but a bad one because of bad this Oline is playing. PERIOD.

How can you call that a great decision, based on KNOWING that the pass protection was a frothy jar of ass?

Thats two power runs from pop or Hunt and the game is over.

If you want to throw, spread them out and hit someone faster that the tackles can impersonate a fence post.

Christ get a rollout play called to get Mahomes on the move with an option to pick up the yardage himself.

An all or nothing bomb? And then punt?

That's terrible football there.

Well, see, Andy Reid doesn't know how to win games in the NFL.

That simple.

Yes I think I agree. You want to increase your comp percentage based on the play you run. The play they ran is a feast or famine play. Its either a big gain or a 60%+ incompletion.

The two calls (long pass and punt) were a gift to the Raiders and we'd be making fun of any team/coach who did similar to us and gave Mahomes a shot to win a game like that

Not if KC ran it...the clock would have stopped at the 2 minute warning. They could have a 1st down and almost burn the rest of the game.
