Chiefs lead 21-3 at halftime and Kareem Hunt, the NFL's leading rusher, gets 5 2nd half carries. Abandoning the run has always been a knock against Reid. Gotta believe the knives will be out in KC.

KC got jobbed.
Mariotta got destroyed by a blitzing Chief. He fumbled the ball on the way to the ground. The ref called that the qbs forward progress was stopped. I have never seen a qb with a clean hit coming up the middle been called down because he is driven back by the sack while not touching the ground. If that is the case anytime your qb goes backwards on a sack no fumble is possible.
Now the 2 point forward progress had been stopped I agree with. It wasnt a clean to the ground tackle. The S had made first contact 3 yards earlier and pushed the qb back before finally getting him to the ground.
But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

In the NFL it used to be that you could not push the runner either. O lineman, including many Packers, got around that by blocking the pile. Mack just grabbed the RB.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

QB play might decide this one, but not in a good way. It'll be Tyrod taking sacks as the lesser of two evils with Bortles tossing picks.
Now THAT is analysis.

2 mediocre QB's going up against good defenses. Punters gonna get a workout.
Having a tough time adjusting to playoffs without Packers, Seahawks, Cowboys, Broncos and Ravens. Maybe good for the league to get some new teams in there, but odd.
Today I learned that Brett Hundley could have started for the Jacksonville Jaguars, and he would have been an upgrade!
Tyrod Taylor got his head smashed into the ground.....didn't look good. Bills down to around 1 minute to get down the field and score.
Jacksonville-Buffalo is like watching Hundley vs. Hundley.

Bortles has a playoff win as a QB. Of course, Trent Dilfer is an SB winning QB!
87 yards passing, 88 yards rushing.
One thing I have to say, the NFL needs to do much better job when it comes to determining if something is a catch or not. At the end of the game they ran at least half a dozen replays of Ramsey's INT from different views in super slow-mo to try and decide if the ball may have moved due to the ball hitting the ground. It really ruined the flow at the end of the game, to the point that I went into the kitchen to get something to drink.

^^^ Didn't you think the Bills were gonna win because that stable genius call of having him start in the middle of the season - to gain experience, of course - would eventually pay off?

Looks like the Panthers forgot to pack their defense for the trip to NO. Or maybe they brought the Packers defense by mistake.

Dumbest decision I've seen a coach make in some time. Go for it at midfield up 5 with less than two minutes left? Unbelievably stupid move by Sean Payton.
