I agree about our D-Line. I don't know what they are doing where we can't get pressure. We got alot of pressure on Josh. They need to figure it out

What?
Butker is MORE than capable of hitting that kick.
Point of fact, he's probably MORE trusted to hit that than he is a 42 yarder.
He's hit from 62 this season. He's repeatedly nailed 55 to 58 yarders with ease in his career.
He's a kicker. Down by 3 with a chance to tie from 55.
He has to make the kick. It's his only ****ing job.
I know people believe that the rest of the Chiefs schedule is just going to be a cakewalk; I'm expecting the Broncos/Raiders to be a handful. Seattle can move the ball. Only Houston is not going to be a challenge for this defense.
Turns out that the margin in the NFL between good teams is pretty thin.
Yep as soon as Kelce fumbled you kinda knew it was deadly in one of these games. Too bad they stole our turnover with a late flag. Don't see Andy blow up like that often

It feels like even if we scored on that drive, our D wasn’t about to stop them anyways. I guess the good news is the Chargers lost and the rest of our schedule is in our favor so we still have a good chance of winning out and possibly getting HFA. But I still want to punch something at the George Brett statue.

And yeah, the defense looked terrible today, yet the Chiefs had them exactly where they wanted for most of the 2nd half.
The problem is that they can’t get off the fucking field. We bend and don’t break for a while, and pray Mahomes can do Mahomes things. When that doesn’t work, it exposes our D, specifically our dogshit DL.
This wasn’t all in the D for sure, but limiting Pat’s opportunities because they can’t find a way to stop 3rd and longs or take advantage when they have them 1st and 20 makes my brain explode.

I'd watch some fucking film on how just about EVERY OTHER FUCKING TEAM MANAGES TO DO IT. Because what we are doing sure THE FUCK IS NOT WORKING. :-)

Oh I'm sorry.
I wasn't aware everything had to be absolutely pristine with the game on the line. He didn't kick the laces. Ball was held well enough to hit that.
