The Defense: They have to be the front runner. Can't sack one of the most sacked QBs in the game. Can't tackle. Can't cover. Can't do shit. Outside of a bright spot or two where the Bengals did more to stop themselves and a 4th down stop, they have to be tops for the award.
Travis Kelce: Hard to be down on him but his fumble was very costly as it left us chasing the Bengals the rest of the game. There is a point you have to just go down but again, hard to be down on him.
Patrick Mahomes: 3rd and 3, down by 3 late in the 4th quarter, McKinnon flares out in the flat with no one within 10 yards of him. The Bengals were literally giving us a 1st down and Mahomes never even looks that way. Instead he kept trying to look for a big play and ended up taking a sack. That leads us to our next contestant....
Butker: I get it, it's a 56 yard FG for the tie but it is for the tie and you push it wide. Come on down, you're a contestant
Andy Reid: WTF do you kick a 56 hard FG knowing it's high risk and your defense can't stop shit? I get it Pat was limping so call a TO and then if he can't go then kick the FG. That's on top of getting away from what was a great running game at key times, particularly in the red zone early when we had to settle for 3. Three times in a row we have lost to the Bengals by 3 points and largely because we didn't stick with the run more. Granted we did better today.
Steve Spags: Just WTF? What ****ing kind of defense was this guy calling? All day Burrows had all day. All day we let guys run wide open. All day we played off. We never contest receptions, we tackle like shit, guys run anywhere and everywhere they want and the QB has time to read the paper and eat a Snicker's before he has to throw.
It took a team effort to lose this one and the team pulled together to make sure everyone had a part in us losing. [Reply]

DL was not winning matchups.
In the end football is decided in the trenches and zero pressure on Burrow is unacceptable. [Reply]
Andy claims that Mahomes gimpy foot didn’t factor into his 4th down decision… so he straight up chose a 55 yard FG attempt with Toub’s uneven special teams unit over MVP Mahomes.
JFC Andy. WHY??!
Chiefs HC Andy Reid: Patrick Mahomes is okay, him limping didn't sway the decision to kick a field goal. #ChiefsKingdom
Travis is a hall of Famer you got the first just go down. Got to be aware they would be going for the ball. Also, wear was a chiefs player in that scrum? You got to go get in that and not let them mug Travis. It was Trav against the world to get back on that ball. [Reply]

I'm not down on Spags. The DBs played well considering our DL played pattycake all game. Pat forced shit deep all game. Idk why when he's said himself over and over again he needs to take what's given to him. That's what's frustrating me the most right now. [Reply]
