He was very good in the first half. Only had 4 drives in the second half.. and pissed away 1 or two of them on bad choices.
Every QB should be allowed a few non-turnover bad choices per game.
This day, a day where the run game was minimal... the officiating and dropped passes were costing us points.. tKC needed Alex to be flawless.
He wasn't.

They didn't need him to be perfect. They needed him to make big plays at the end of the game and he wasn't able to get it done. For better or worse, Mahomes would have done something very different on that 3rd and 9 play at the end. He would have kept the play alive. Throw a pick? Maybe. Convert the first down? Maybe.
His teammates failed as well, that's obvious. Defense struggled in the second half. OL and receivers struggled. The refs screwed them hardcore on the Mariota "non-fumble" and special teams blew a field goal. That's 6 points right there between the Titans field goal (right after "non-fumble") and Chiefs missed field goal.
