    On Reddit all of the Chiefs kool aid drinkers are blaming the refs for making the correct call. Priceless!

    There's just no way that's not offside. He was staring in at the ball while he his foot was lined up over the football.

    I made that mistake once when I was 16. Once. I got screamed into "won't do it again, coach" land

    We’re one game back. Jags are 8-5 and the Texans are 7-6. Jags play the ravens next which the ravens are heavily favored.

    They own the tiebreaker so we need to be up one game on them to win the Div.

    More division and conference wins iirc. They’ve swept the Colts and beat Titans once. They’ve only lost once within the AFC South and that was too us. We’ve lost to Jags and Colts.

    I believe the tiebreaker is 1) Heah to Head 2) Division record 3) Conference record. This is why it was so important to beat them at home cuz then we would’ve had head to head and it wouldn’t have mattered what our Division record was provided we finished with the same number of wins.

    I wish NFL teams would let their QBs spend 1 day with an Aikido instructor. I’m not even an Aikido guy but I do know one of the very 1st things you learn is to never let the back of your head hit the floor. You train your neck. It’s street smarts too. Get muscle memory, trained instincts, and strong neck muscles to not let your head whiplash into the concrete. Cause that’s game over obviously.

    aikido chin to chest breakfalls.

    I just remember being told it was unforgivable for me to ever line up offsides or jump early as a WR

    I would say our poor offense contributed to the poor defense. When your time of possession is low, then the defense gets exhausted from being out there for so long. We couldn’t sustain drives and our D got tired. Case in point: 1st half Jets 0 points, 2nd half 30 points.

    Jets manhandled them on the opening drive. Were they tired from halftime exhaustion? Both offenses did nothing in the first half.

    more like one side adjusted… while the other was hampered by 3rd string wr’s who probably didn’t practice much all week.

    3) is win/loss common games and 4) is win/loss conference games.

    Basically we win this week they lose and it’s same result as this week if we would have won and they would have lost …

    Fant was getting abused - wish we had a replacement since he didn’t practice all week

    Whatever training Tua did this last off-season seemed to work.

    O- Line was god awful yesterday. Worst I've seen it this year in regards to quick pressure.

    Stroud had no chance between that and whatever nfl players were on the field yesterday.

    Metchie is on the chopping block next year.
    Noah Brown probably won't be resigned.

    Texans need to take a WR1 type guy in the first round next year. There is about 7 of them.

    I agree. Metchie is a good story and glad he’s healthy but he provides basically nothing. Zero separation.

    Xavier Worthy is the easy pick.
    Great blocker, has good hands and would be the closest thing to Tyreek Hill to come out since Tyreke Hill. The speed is freaky.
