Usher slayed. One of the greatest travesties of all time is Maroon 5 doing the Atlanta halftime show.

This Chiefs punter legit should win Super Bowl mvp

Boring game.

Lions would have been able to score and would have been scored a lot on.

Just got to shrug your shoulders on that one and try to win the game with your offense that hasn't moved the ball since the end of the first quarter.

You can't give Mahomes easy TDs. Especially when your offense hasn't been able to do much since the 1st quarter.

What I think has been apparent to me this game is Purdy's lack of arm strength. He's super accurate, which offsets that those limitations. But when he's not able to step into it, that ball floats in there air a long time, or it falls at the feet of the WR.

And I love seeing my guy Jauan Jennings have a big game. He's always been an absolute dog.

Is thethe gonna mock Shanahan for going for it on 4th instead of the tie or was it brilliant bc it worked out?

Only thing I could think about lol

I'm not sure how you could conflate the two situations - Seems odd to me to try.

I'd love to hear the argument that the situations were close to the same though.

He doesn't have a rocket arm but his arm strength isn't a weakness.

Um.

Well both were 4th and 3, both in the 4th quarter, and both passing up FG to tie the game.

The difference was the lions kick would have been harder

Not surprised tho that Campbell is a dummy and Shanahan is brilliant.

Results over process

Did the opposing team have Patrick Mahomes?

The first attempt was the bad one. Second one was more explainable.

No the lions were facing the best offense in football, not the mediocre Chiefs offense

What a story this could be if Purdy drives the team down the field to win the game against Mahomes.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

 

[thethe]

Kyle treats Purdy like a 10 year all pro.

****ing love it

 

[thethe]

Have to win this game now. It’s all there in front of them.

One 5 yard play is all I ask for. Just one more….

Then go for it on 4th down

 

[sturg33]

This play is it. Convert and its over. Even if they don't convert I'd maybe go for it for the kill

 

[sturg33]

Dan Campbell would treat this as 2 plays for the 1st. Let's see if Shannahan is as wise

I think you gotta kick the FG if it gets to 4th down.
