    Bad sack now ugh.

    There is literally one rule for pass interference when DBs face WRs and another rule for pass interference when DBs face Gronk

    The D has been shredded. Those 2 big play TDs are exactly what Bill try's to avoid most of all, but they've been huge.

    Stat going around that we didn't give up any 90+ yard TD drives from 2013 - 2016 at home. We've given up 3 tonight.

    Last season the longest play we gave up was 26 yards.

    TBF offense isn't looking that sharp either.

    Too much deep ball

    Going out with a whimper on that 3 and out.

    They could legitimately run the game out here.

    Shocking stuff they wont be getting anymore of my money this year

    D has been dismantled. Flowers seemed to be the only one getting a degree of pressure.
    Offense had chances to put a sizeable lead together early on, but never really edged away.
    Altogether a really poor night. Doesn't end the season, but serious work required.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,510 ✭✭✭Hazys


    Pats looks lost...very surprising for a BB coached team.

    As a fan I'm not panicked, I know we have the talent on the field and on the sidelines but we have a couple of tough games ahead to figure this out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,438 ✭✭✭j8wk2feszrnpao


    Credit to KC, this is a fully deserved win for them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,719 ✭✭✭JaMarcusHustle


    Embarassing loss really, to get so outclassed on every phase and by such a wide margin too.

    I want to just chalk it down to being one of those nights, but there was so much about that "performance" that should have alarm bells ringing. That's ruined the opening weekend now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,438 ✭✭✭j8wk2feszrnpao


    12 men on the field after a timeout? Sums up the night.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,510 ✭✭✭Hazys


    Silver lining is that we dont have the pressure of a perfect season hanging over us...BB out-thinking the league again* :pac:







    **TBF i'm such a believer in BB, i wouldnt put it past him to believe that this was his plan all along

    Good stuff from Chiefs, delighted for Smith. Not all doom and gloom for Pats though, they do need work but this was a very good Chiefs performance.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,293 ✭✭✭coco0981


    Good stuff from the chiefs, Smith was out to prove a point tonight. Not going to give up his starting spot without a fight. Hope Berry not out too long, Achilles can be a niggly one to get rid of

    Be funny if BB just answered every question in press conference with "we're on to New Orleans's"

    Clown towels being used for tears tonight

    Overreaction Friday coming I presume.

    Overreaction Friday coming I presume.

    Especially considering the last time the Pats were hammered by the Chiefs in September they went on to win the SB.

    Just one of those days where almost everything goes wrong!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,977 ✭✭✭TheDoctor


    It's over people

    8-8 season coming


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    40.6 fantasy points for Kareem Hunt. Quite a debut, fumble aside!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,380 ✭✭✭The Reservoir Dubs Anchorman


    Incredible performance by the Chiefs, look like they have improved all round again. Andy Reid did a masterful job in play calling. Tyreek Hill and Hunt were excellent. Kelce was good but makes some stupid decisions at times. His temper needs to be tamed.

    One massive problem though is the injury to Eric Berry. He's an incredible athlete and will be a big loss if it is indeed an achilles. Pats were poor all round but that can happen on opening night team comes out a little flat, one thing that would worry me about them if I was a fan would be their defence, struggled everywhere. Coverage, run game, short yardage. Considering the amount of calls that went the way of the Patriots in terms of penalties its surprising they didn't get the result.

    Great game to start the season either way. Wrecked in work now! Luckily on a halfer to play golf so that will clear the head!


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    Possible torn achilles for Eric Berry. What a kick in the teeth that would be for KC.

    The scoreline was amazing considering the penalty yardage against KC was massive. Kelce's taunting stood out as stupid.

    Incredibly stupid. Needs to take a leaf out of Tony Gonzalez book and never react. Even if the defender is sitting on your head. Could have cost the Chiefs the game in that spot too as the game was very much in the melting pot.
