Slow start so far for KC. Need to get something on the board soon. I get nervous when the Cheifs have to bank on an up-and-down defense.

Nice run back

Well crap

There we go

KELCE ! That's more like it !

Saw a stat that showed the Steelers were undefeated this season when they held opponents to 20 points or less. One of two more Chiefs scores in the 2nd half ought to do the trick.

@nwhawkfan hardman doesn't need to be handing off the ball

Sure, go ahead and toss it to a lineman for six ! Why not !

Hope that flip by Tyreek didn't aggravate his heel

Guess his heel's okay !

Ben is beyond washed

Looked pretty good throwing to the sidelines on that drive. We must have the shortest DBs in the NFL!

Kelce to Pringle. Huh ?

Jeez, Andy's emptying out the play book tonight !

Bye Bye Ben.

Hell of a career though.

Who is? Rapist.

It's about to get real for the Chiefs

Chiefs are for real!

They better be, they jack around - - -They done. - Josh Allen ain't no joke

Big game tonight.

Can Chiefs D contain Allen, especially when he takes off.

@AsadZ nervous!

What a massive choke job by the Rams. Cooper Kupp saved their bacon. The pride of Eastern Washington U.

Bye Bye Brady!

Here we go !

🙏🙏

Honey Badger to the locker room for a concussion check. Not good.

MAHOMES MAGIC

See some D now!

Ugh!

What did they say about Matthieu? I missed it

Out for game, in conc protocol.

@rockchalkwyo All I heard was he was taken back to the locker room for a concussion check. No update on that yet.

@nwhawkfan It was a report. Out, in conc protocol. Happened right when Reed got hurt.

Got it do that with Kelce

LORD BYRON

What a throw too🔥🔥🔥

@Crimsonorblue22 A belated Happy Birthday by the way !

Whew! Now hold em or pic it

@nwhawkfan thx! I'm still celebrating, Chiefs win will top it off, oh and then KU tmrw!

Damn. Could be another game that comes down to the last play. Par for the course this weekend.

Great reach for six by Hardman.

Getting worried about Butker though. Not consistent, especially on PATs.

Buttkicker is not doing us any favors!

Well crap

The other three games this weekend were all decided by a field goal. Scary.

Gave it right back…. Only good news is that Buffalo’s defense is back on the field without much rest.

I hate when he goes backwards

Should have went for that 4th down. Defense isn't stopping anything!

Butker leaving 4 points on the board is looming large as well.

Gotta score here, 7

No flags?

TYREEK MAGIC

🤮

🤬

Not good

Better from Butker

Play calling sucked back there

Clock running

Come on defense

Let’s end this unfinished Billsness

NOOOOOOOOO

Allen had all the time in the world gah

4 for 4 on 4th down conversions. Sad

YAAAAAAAAAH !!!!

What'd I say ? TYREEK MAGIC

Wow Tyreek!

Just one stop now !

He peace signed that dude lol

We need a to

🙏🙏🙏🙏

Don't fall down

O interference

Bs

Somebody please make a play

Oof.

Last chance

He owes us 4 pts

And again, it's down to the last play of the game

HELL YEAH

Dear god this game

Good call!

I can't take it

Thank you Mister Butker

Oh my God im going to wake the baby

That is so freaking good

Josh Allen looks like he’s going to mentally explode

Huge win

Best game of the year. Regardless

Not unless we win

(If I were a neutral of course)

We r missing honey badger

That hurt on those blown coverage TDs

LETS FINISH THIS DAMN THING

FINALLY !!!!!

2 FEET DOWN

Incredible!

And how was your day ?

Between this and KU...what a wild weekend.

Total cardiac weekend. And one more to go tomorrow

Okay, NOW I'll take credit

Bite me josh Allen! We weren't done!

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner.

(Literally. Got a batch of buttermilk chicken ready to fry!)

@nwhawkfan Buffalo meat?

Haven't had a bison burger lately. Hmm...

Being from Wyoming, it’s nice to see Josh Allen playing so well. But not against my Chiefs!

@nwhawkfan they are good!

We had some dumb playing calling inside the 10

As someone who lives in the only NFL West market that DIDN'T have a team in the playoffs, I've gotta figure who I'd rather see play the Chiefs in the Super Bowl. (I know, too early.)

Probably the Niners though. Would hate to go up against the Rams at their place, even if a lot of Super Bowl tickets go to corporate suits instead of the real fans.

NFC West, that is.

Dinner time ! Thanks everybody ! Back for more stress tomorrow in AFH.

@Crimsonorblue22 said in Chiefs playoffs thread:

Fortunate to be on the other side of the stupid OT rule this time.

NFL OT rules are ass

@FarmerJayhawk Saved Andy from a lot of tough questions tonight. Also Buffalo not squib kicking was neat.

@BShark tbh they should’ve just tackled any receiver at the LOS on that last drive. Trade a few yards for a second or two each time.

I feel cheated out of seeing what Allen would’ve done the next drive

@FarmerJayhawk said in Chiefs playoffs thread:

Never so happy to feel cheated!!!

That rule hurt us too and we tried to get rid of it and were over ruled. It's totally unfair! Who can't think it's not? As for tonight, we shouldn't have taken the ball out of Patrick's hands on the bell dozers lateral on the goal line. Got to cute. Why didn't they throw a flag when Patrick got his face ran over on the sideline? What if's?

And guess what, Buffalo was one of the franchises that voted against the change. :)

That was quite a game. Hard to believe that all actually happened. The results of the weekend did bring to mind something that's a rub for me...

The QB position is oftentimes judged by wins and losses...especially in the playoffs. We all saw with our own eyes how the quarterbacks played in the games this weekend. And we would probably also say that Josh Allen's playoff record getting an L is about as fair as Jimmy G's getting a W. The fact that a team win will be credited to one QB whose offense scored 6 points and a team loss will be credited to another that did what Allen did is why that statistic's weight in discussion of great QBs is just absolute trash. It won't ultimately cause any of us to question who might be the better player between Allen/JimmyG, but that specific stat being used to justify one great QB being better than another great QB is just so silly to me.

It may seem unfair in a particular game to give a great passer the loss, but that is no different than a pitcher who loses a no-hitter and the game because of a run scoring on an error.

I think people understand the difference between a great passer like Dan Marino, who played the position of QB at a high level, and Joe Montana or Tom Brady, who have lots of Ws in Super Bowls.

How else other than winning should QBs be evaluated since ultimately winning often is most often produced by excellence in leadership, not only good passing?

@mayjay How does a lack of playoff success affect what people think about Barry Sanders? Or Champ Bailey? Tony Gonzalez? Randy Moss? Calvin Johnson? Junior Seau? Bruce Smith? The reality is that if you're not a QB, no one puts wins and losses into that discussion. I'm not naive in thinking the QB plays a role that is different, but it's not the only position that produces excellence in leadership.

@focojayhawk said in Chiefs playoffs thread:

The reality is that if you’re not a QB, no one puts wins and losses into that discussion.

Precisely as it should be. QB is the leader of the offense, which on a win must have more points than the other team. QB handles 95 to 99% of snaps, is charged with reading the defense and adjusting play calls if needed, and has long been considered the general on the field. RBs and the other positions do not handle the ball or make decisions on virtually every play.

Would you prefer QB reputations to be divorced from whether they win games or not? I can hear those discussions in my nightmares.... "Allen threw more TDs in the games they played, so he was greater than Mahomes." "But Mahomes led the Chiefs further in the playoffs!" "That doesn't matter--the QB does not deserve to be considered the winner, so Allen can't be the loser."

All I know this game is hyped about being one of the ages. We couldn't have done it w/out Kelce, cheetah, Hartman and even buttkicker, lol! It would've been easier w/the honey badger! The 2 qb's broke records, but we need our receivers to help. Gonna be a fun couple of years watching these new young guns.

@mayjay Man...then I guess it's gonna be hard for me to unload my Jeff George and Vinny Testaverde jerseys. Make me an offer?

Jeff George. Incredible arm. Does that jersey have all of the grass stains on the back from the million times he was sacked due to his horrid O line?

I had a conversation with a 10 year old boy once (circa 1991-2) who just idolized Vinny despite ... well, despite Vinny. No stats, no team records, no miserable performances could break that allegiance. Vinny looked cool, and that was that.

If you had a Vinny TBay jersey, well, now you're talking...

How Pat makes me feel.

It's more stressful to be a spectator. I relate.

@tundrahok dang, mine was just the opposite! 3 nights in a row. Non-stop spiking.

@Crimsonorblue22 You should have been on the field. Less stressful to play than watch!

Saw this today:

@Gorilla72

I saw that stat earlier today. Had to reread it several times to make sure It said what I thought it said. Absolutely mind-blowing. Grim Reaper indeed.

We should know! Jayhawks and Chiefs!

@focojayhawk Jeff George? You mean the guy who got hurt his freshmen year at Purdue and his mom ran onto the field?

Can Chiefs contain Burrow and stud wide receivers. Last time Chiefs were torched. How will KC respond today.

Burrow made some comments earlier in the week with regards to noise level a non factor inside Arrowhead compared to SEC.

I expect decibel level to be a bit higher today.

Go Chiefs

Go Chiefs!!!

Solid start there. Love that they are playing McKinnon more.

OF COURSE HE DID !

You can't stop what you can't catch

Loving this game, so far! Trying to stay away from BB.

REAPER SZN

Run it up!

@BShark 🐦 View Tweet?s=21
U c this? Love it

Wished I knew who sang that.

Hmmm. Wakeup call for the defense.

Need to get this back!

Damn

Why no FG ? Hope this doesn't come back to bite em

Hopefully that won't matter. Bengals offering little resistance so far...

Stop talking!

Stupid!

📣📣📣📣📣📣📣🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤

Defense looking decent so far. It's the big plays that worry me.

Flag it

Holy shit they might lose.

Damn

So much for the momentum

So stupid

Terrible sack, that's game...

You can thank the Chiefs pass rush for that INT !

OK no mistakes now

Ok, just hang on to the ball. Control the clock.

Let's get it!

Got to put it in this time

What the hell was that?

YES

Here we go again

Wheels have come off the Chiefs offense

Complete meltdown. This weekend sucked

Bout to be 0-3 this weekend: KU bball, Chiefs, USMNT

Ballgame

Now I only have one team left to stress over

@nwhawkfan that sucked, bad weekend. Not Patrick's best showing. Line fell apart. Should've kicked the fg at half.

incredible meltdown. epic.
Mahomes. wow.
Shocked at the performance, decision making late in the game.

Crap! thx @approxinfinity! go figure i see the soccer result before i can watch in the Chiefs thread!
You're on my list.

Still some daylight left here. Need to go outside and walk this one off.

Thanks everybody. Til next time...

Wonder if the royals will be any good?

The Chiefs just flat ass pissed that game away , no other way to say it - -just flat ass wet themselves. - - -Cincy didn't beat KC - - - KC beat - -- KC

@jayballer67 go away

Yeah it hurts, feel better?

@Crimsonorblue22 said in Chiefs playoffs thread:

Not at all I actually wanted KC to win whether you believe it or not - - not that I care if you do, what I do care about is I'm tired of People here that when others speak what they think about things getting told to go away cause your feelings got hurt or people saying that I don't know what I'm talking about cause don't agree and kiss Crimson and Blue butt or red and gold butt - -Again KC blew this game plain and simple if not please explain why they lost. they had everything at their disposal until Pat decided to get loose with the football.- -Sorry I'm not going anywhere. - I still am huge KU and I like KC. - Not my # 1 team but I still pull for them 98 % of the time sorry

Geez, everyone, it is just a game. No need for fratricide in the Kingdom.

Yeah, the Chiefs blew it, but I disagree about Cincy--they took advantage of the chances KC gave them. That is a spectacular QB and receiving corps, and should be respected. They didn't stop trying, and that is why we lost.

What is often forgotten is that the sun still rose the day after Mighty Casey struck out.

@rockchalkjayhawk I don't think it was a no brainer. It was like Mahomes brain left his body right at that moment though, and didn't come back for the rest of the game.

That play should get called, and if they hate the look the ball should just be thrown out of bounds. 5 seconds is plenty of time to see if you get something you like. Not sure what went through Pat's head.

Not sure what happened on the INT either. He couldn't have thrown the ball more directly at the guy. Then there were a few JUST out of reach passes combined with a few drops. Didn't even feel like the Cincy D beat them.

We needed that t.o. that we mistakenly called to get that play reviewed. Patrick gets the worst pics! Off hill to the defense and then big lineman.

Yes, agreed @Kcmatt7 .
I meant to convey an eventual field goal should have been attainable if the pass play wasn’t developing. I shouldn’t type when angry! :(

@rockchalkjayhawk oof. Sorry

I grew up watching the Chiefs. Started when Hank Stram was coach... Dawson, Otis Taylor, etc. I watched when we ran the Wing T. I watched years of losing. As bad as this loss is, the Chiefs will be just fine. Next year the Chiefs will be favored to win it all again, and probably will. I'm down here in Houston, and I take my autistic son to several Texans games every year. Talk about a s*** show. So, it definitely can always be worse, folks.

Not taking anything away from Bengals, Chiefs just choked.

I think that coaching staff blew this game away, that play right before halftime was the turning point.
