Disappointing for sure, not really fair to place the blame on a single person. The offensive line showed the injuries, the defensive line was unable to stop the Steelers from controlling the line of scrimmage. It looked like the Chiefs were playing vanilla and safe. I think this is due to the team being 5-0, it happens in sports. Players get complacent and so do coaches. In a game the Steelers absolutely had to win, they did what was necessary to win. In my opinion, their coaches decided that they were going to force the Chiefs to beat them in the air. Considering that the Chiefs are decimated by injuries on the offensive line and receivers, this is an excellent plan. I don't understand the game plan of the defense, okay they only gave up 17 points however they never forced the Steelers to be one dimensional. I don't have an answer as to why Houston is in pass coverage, or why many Chiefs defenders tend to throw a shoulder at someone and not tackle.
The problems on this team go deeper than the players, the team simply wasn't ready to play and once they got knocked down were unable to get back up.
I am ready for Andy and Alex to go somewhere else. Not because they are terrible, just because i am tired of retreads.
On to the Raiders. This was one of the hardest games to watch in years. I understand that teams have bad games however this one is concerning. Especially if the Chiefs drop the next one. There are no easy games in the NFL.
