It was obvious before the game, but it's undeniable at this point. Teams are going to blitz the fuck out of us until we beat it. That likely means going back to some of what Steichen used to do before this year.


There was certainly a way they were going to lose that game. 11-point lead with 8 and change... 3-point lead with 5 and change... and a 4th-and-3 where Ward got his feet tangled and fell down, etc.

We needed our offense to do slightly more than nothing in the 4th quarter. Instead, they did exactly nothing.

The defense was odd, because they gave up a bunch of LONG drives, but then locked down at the goal line. Part of that is why they were probably gassed towards the end (not sure how much of that was them getting killed on crossers/mesh routes)...

But even more egregious was four consecutive 3-and-outs in the 4th/OT. I was really surprised. We haven't seen that since last season with AR throwing it into the stands.

The Colts' offense wilted badly in the 4th quarter yesterday, but I was glad to see that Daniel Jones did not turn the ball over.

On the whole, I believe that this team is for real ...... if and when DeForest Buckner comes back this season, the defense could be very interesting.

True, the run game was struggling, but why not keep the clock running with the run game and force them to use TOs THEN punt.

KC stuck with the run even when it wasn't working. The Colts abandoned the run when it wasn't working.

Please someone tell me how this is a penalty?

Yet this is not. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/p8cOjc662Qc

I can't find a highlight of Chris Jones obvious late hit on DJ, that wasn't called by the same crew, in the same game. But, the Go whatever the Goodell Chiefs won the game.

Neither one of those were roughing the passer. And neither was Chris Jones' hit on DJ. But Grover's hit was the least defensible call. I mean, how many times have we seen a DE try to block a pass and a finger-tip the QB's helmet and catch a flag?

It's retarded. And it's also sad how these fucking gutless company-men calling the game can't admit it. The best you get is a tepid, "Ehhh, I don't know about that."

How embarrassing was it to listen to Romo and Steratore try to justify it... and you could hear in their voices as it's replaying that they realize what they're saying is gobbledy gook, because they acting like there's even a single thing Grover could do to avoid that...

...besides just letting Mahomes go by.

Oh, and nothing makes me hate a QB more than complaining for these welfare calls. Mahomes is one of the worst I've seen. Putting his hand out for a freebie constantly.

And that's separate from his fake slides and fake running out of bounds shit that the league allows these guys to do.

He definitely does this every 3rd down

Tell me how you stop the fucking play because the offense has 10 guys on offense???

Shane didn't learn a damn thing from the Steelers game.
