2nd half drive recap

[CrowbarMan]

Here's how all the drives ended:

3rd and 1 - read option stuffed.

Missed field goal, after a 3rd and 13 sack for zero yards set up by a negative run and quick pass.

Drop by Charles.

And the final drive of the game - two incomplete passes.
--
So was this the offenses fault? I guess if you think that because they didn't score on the last drive, but otherwise, there was a lot of other failure going on.

I'm not sure I get your point here? You seemingly highlight the offense's second half failures and then question if it was the fault of the offense?

The 3rd and 9 sack on the last drive was exactly the Alex Smith we've known for years. Tyreek, kelce, and hunt have just put lipstick on a mediocre pig. Alex rolls right and he has either a first down running or he has a million more seconds to throw the ball. His inconsistency to see the obvious play is exactly the reason why you can't rely on us to consistently win big games. The offense and defense both laid an egg. But when you have an opportunity to win on offense and have plenty of time to do it, I pin that loss on the offense.

When you have an 18 point lead I lay the fault directly on the defense.

2 full quarters and the offense did absolutely nothing.

This. Smith was who he always is in these situations. We got a glimpse of Mahomes in the pocket last week and it felt very different.

They had an 18 point lead. No excuse for any defense, that should of been enough by itself. The defense got trucked the 2nd half and nobody acted like they even gave a damn. People have been blaming Alex Smith and the offense for so long they can't see that a decent quality defense can help an offense, not just the O carry the D.

Except you know that this defense isn’t really that great. This team isn’t going to win many games by allowing their offense to go into a shell for 2 quarters. I’m not going to blame a defense for being something they aren’t. This falls directly on the qb and head coach.

Yeah,because they were on the damn field the entire 2nd half. Don’t be dumb!

If the Chiefs had a dominant defense than you would have a point. But this defense really isn’t that good. But they are good enough as long as the QB and coach doesn’t shit the bed. Andy Reid and Alex Smith are bed shitters. Sutton did an ok job only giving up 22 points.

As far as I'm concerned, when you're down 1 point with 4 minutes left and you get the ball, it's a 1-0 ballgame. We had a chance to win it on offense and we didn't. At that point, nothing earlier in the game matters.

[kcpasco]

Kareem Hunt being severely under used in that second half should be fireable.

[kcpasco]

Hey guys the Chiefs don’t have a very good defense so let’s put the blame on them when they only gave up 22 points. It couldn’t possibly be a reeruned head coach and a very limited QB.

[tmax63]

Allowing over a hundred rushing in the 2nd half should be a fireable offense. Giving up 15 yards on 3 and 10 at the most critical point in the game when the entire stadium knows they're gonna run the ball is fireable. Zombo getting pancaked by a QB is fireable. The way the secondary tackled is a fireable offense. Only getting the ball back to your offense 3 times in a half (the 4th was special teams) is fireable.
