Just heard Fescoe talking about someone close to Andy that told him Andy was extremely distraught by this loss and knows he personally screwed up. This isn't just another loss. This affected Andy deeply.
I think we might see some changes going forward, especially in attention to late game situations.
The other thing I heard this morning from my source is that Mahomes was angry after the game yesterday. So angry that he was almost on the verge of tears. Going forward you might see more fire from Mahomes in leading this team and getting on others when shit goes south. Like Marino/Aikman type leadership. [Reply]

Some would say that giving the ball to your best playmaker, Mahomes, is better than giving it to your scrub running back and your terrible run-blocking OL.
However, Mahomes might have tried for the first down if he wasn't recently injured, so maybe giving it to the RB would be the best choice.
And if you don't make the 3rd and 2, and now it's 4th and 1, go again. Time to put the fate of this team on the offense instead of the defense. [Reply]
Upset? Hell, we drove 8 1/2 hours to the game and literally had a front row seat to witness Reid shit the bed in person. Reid is just a morbidly obese, slightly more successful version of Schottenheimer. He will never take this team to a Super Bowl. [Reply]
He's too damn soft to be mad and PM is still too young to push him into a corner that would force him to change.
All these people keep saying he's a great head coach, bullshit. He's a decent OC, great play designer, and awesome QB coach. He has never possessed the basic abilities required of a HC. We knew this when we signed him.
All this "he's mad" bullshit is pure smoke that could have been predicted as soon as the game ended. Predictable media and insider fluff to appease fans and stroke their own egos. Let me know when Clark is actually yelling at Reid. Or when Reid is actually up set enough to miss a meal. Or when Reid actually gets demoted to OC and we hire a head coach that's actually good at what head coaches do. Until then, he'll be what he's always been. Hell, I'd even settle for him hiring another "assistant" just to tell him when to run the ball and when to call timeouts, AGAIN. Give him the title of Game Manager or nacho getter, I don't give a fuck, just get someone in here who can actually do what a head coach is supposed to be good at. [Reply]

Correct, the play call before the 4th down was the issue.
Mahomes made the correct decision to take the sack and keep the clock moving, but the the play call was bad. [Reply]

Nobody knows on the time out. Nobody. It's a complete mystery.
My only thought was that I think he still had three timeouts, so why not burn one on the off chance that it would help stop the conversion and the Chiefs could win. With 23 seconds left, perhaps there was the thought that you couldn't use all three timeouts anyway. But if that was the thinking, it was incorrect.
One thing I've noticed about Andy is that he likes to be "unpredictable" by calling plays to backups and third-stringers when the game is on the line. He's very predictable in that tendency. The weird thing is that when he puts the ball in the hands of Tyreek or Kelce, it pretty much always works because there's a reason that those guys are stars. And when he calls plays to put it in the hands of guys who aren't stars, it pretty much never works. [Reply]
I will never understand our defensive strategy yesterday. We have been doing really well with Ragland, Saunders, Nnadi, and Pennel. Titans are limited in the passing game and have a monster running back and we play this game like it’s a pass happy team. All the afore mentioned players had their plays reduced drastically and guys like Niemann and KPass play more [Reply]
I don't understand why you would rely on your defense to get a stop or a kicker when you could win the game with our offense by getting 2 fucking yards
that was the turning point where lack of killer instinct really set the team back [Reply]
I wish Reid would be like Taylor Lewan. After the game Lewan said he is a complete liability when it comes to penalties and that he is screwing the team when it comes to penalties. Why can’t Reid call himself out like that. Tired of the bs oh I gotta do a better job [Reply]
