Better to be lucky than good....
 
The Chiefs were lucky to beat the Jags. That's just plain and simple. A dropped INT on a Foles duck, dropped INT by the Chiefs in the end zone to prevent a Jax score, an iffy call that could have been ruled a TD but was ruled a fumble by Jax, wide WIDE open receivers missed by Bortles....

For the most part Jax outplayed KC on both sides of the ball. They ran all over our defense and had guys open deep all game long. The Chiefs made some key stops when they absolutely had too but they were lucky to walk away with a win this game.

Nick Foles is not better than Smith. So let's just end that talk now. He looked like a statue in the pocket, missed wide open guys for scores and didn't see open receivers. I know, no Ware, Maclin and eventually Kelce hurts. But you can tell his accuracy is not even close to what Smith's is. He did make a nice pass to Wilson for our 1 TD of the day.

All day long the Chiefs, particularly the defense played with their head in the clouds. Multiple penalties, terrible tackling and rather unimpressive coverage on special teams.

A win is a win is a win. I would rather be lucky than good but the fact is, we were not good today. We were lucky.

We established this already. A thread was necessary though.

We have shown no sign on offense to turn this around so I highly doubt it

Let's list all the breaks that went the other way.

With that said we were lucky

i don't care much about that. There can be multiple reasons for that. If you're outgained like that but are still winning it usually means you are getting good starting field position, playing good defense and giving up garbage time yards.

I would like to see us not cut it so close in games we should be running away with. Against Bress I get it. Against Bortles I don't.

This isn't taking the place of Blowfish's 10 things is it?

That I disagree with. Our problem is stalling in the red zone.

Never apologize for any win.
