    2 of the dumbest 3rd down penalties ive ever seen in my oife life on that drive. Why would you hold a guy ten yards short of the line to gain?

    Mahomes is just so good. Minimum time with the ball, and just a 3pt game after all the good work by the Titans.
    Titans need to keep doing what they are doing and try their best to limit Mahomes' possessions.

    Nantz a bit over the top with the "out of this world"....

    That was less about Mahomes and more about the "tackling"....

    I think the Titans will find it tough if the Chiefs come out and score first in the second half, they dont seem like a team built to come from behind

    19mins to 11mins for possession. But losing 21:17. This will be tough for the Titans.

    Sure what do you expect when the time allowed for practice in the off season has been reduced tackling is bound to suffer.

    The titans need to get the next score either a FG or TD. If the chiefs get the next TD then I’d be worried for the titans.

    This has always been a massive bug bear of mine, it seems it is more important to get a "hit" on someone than actually stop them by making a tackle.
    What way are they coached to tackle as kids? If missed tackles was a stat like in rugby then they would be all over it.

    Chiefs have done really well in the 3rd quarter keeping Henry quiet. A TD here and the titans will need a miracle.

    Having to put the game in Ryan Tannehills hands isn’t what the titans were hoping for.

    Which is why Judge's press conference when starting with the Giants didn't make much sense when he started talking about more padded practices and more tackling. You just cant decide to do that.

    Lots of coaches at junior level are flat out terrible, they aren't provided the types of support or oversight that you get with sports in Ireland. Turnovers are such a big thing, much more than rugby, and when you only play one element of the game I understand why players can go for the 'big hit'. More coaches are moving towards rugby style though.

    For Mahome's run I feel the QB rules might have come into play. Some defenders seem afraid to take a full shot at a QB for fear they'll step out or slide. Slightly different but last weekend Garoppolo pancaked Barr with a block when you can nearly see Barr pausing thinking how hard can he hit him.

    Titans pass rush just hasn't been good enough, when they've dropped so many guys to cover. They've only rushed 3 guys a lot and Mahomes has had time to pick someone or run himself.

    You waste a timeout because your defence isn't set
    ..... and you still give up the 1st down.

    Yeah, that team isn't winning the game

    And Vrabal looked pissed off after the TO was called. I mean you can go through a load of stats to explain why the chiefs will likely win the game but points scored in the second half is a telling stat. Titans 0 chiefs 21. I mean the only stat that matters is the score line.

    If they'd gone behind in either of the other games they would have likely been in the same kind of trouble.

    Great season though, one or two more weapons next year they'd be in a position to deal with playing from behind.

    I'm no titans expert, but their pass rush seemed a little lackluster.

    Agree that those games went pretty much perfectly for the types of things they like to do.

    Always good to have more rushers but I think it a lot of their issues today was due to game plan. They only rushed 3 so they could put more guys into coverage and don't have the quality to get to the QB (not many teams would with that number).

    Even though it wasn’t the titans fans day today they can hold their heads high and it’s takes a good team to beat both the patriots and ravens in the playoffs
