On the fourth-and-goal, when Alex saw the Titans stuffing the B-gap AGAIN, knowing that he didn't have Poe in to blow-open a hole, he should have called a timeout. There's no way any NFL player should think that a weak(er) O-line was going to muster the strength to give the RB a lane to run through. Add to it that the Observant QB (and coaching staff) would have seen that our RBs weren't winning the strength battle, and it's all the more reason to call a TO. And if his excuse was that he was sure the Titans were going to not stuff the gap and fall beck into coverage instead, well he guessed wrong. And while we may all be mere armchair/Monday morning QBs, we didin't get stuffed, twice, at the one yard line after a dumb-ass chose not to dive for the pylon and/or stick the ball out in front of him. And we don't get paid millions to see these sorts of things - they do. |

The west fumble at the end of the first half was a killer. Surprised he was allowed back on the field after that!

There were a ton of mistakes. It's not like the team had an extra week off like the team they played. Wait...................

Where was Knile Davis tonight? Did he even get on the field? So much better than West.

Doesn't matter. Knile wouldn't have made any difference.

Did they really go on a 7 minute drive in the 4th quarter.
Or am I imagining this shit? That was shades of Andy vs the Pats in the Super Bowl. You know - down by two scores in the 4th and huddling up. Andy Reid really does suck. He really is terrible.

Nick Athan:
As we’ve seen over the last week, there is a cosmic shift in coaching circles in the NFL. The days of elder statesmen on the sidelines are about to become extinct. In Kansas City, Head Coach Andy Reid, once again has proven with his latest playoff loss, he’s not the right fit for the Chiefs long term. I’ll go on record right now. The Chiefs need to part ways with Andy Reid. His playoff loss Sunday Night, was neither surprising or unpredictable, at the hands of the Pittsburgh Steelers. They can flat out coach on that sideline, which is vastly different than what the Chiefs currently possess on their sidelines. For Reid, who had two weeks to prepare to get his team ready to play, and trust his defensive coordinator, Bob Sutton would bail out his inadequacies as a play-caller and manager of this football team, once again caved under the inability to rise above his ego and arrogance that will never accept his faults as an offensive coordinator and head coach. Kansas City lost a tough playoff game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, 18-16. Yes, we can debate the holding call on Eric Fisher, that negated tying the game with just over two minutes to go, or Sutton’s reasoning for using Justin Houston in pass coverage eight times – two of them, covering Antonio Brown, which was both epic and idiotic within the game, that should cost, Bob Sutton any future employment in Kansas City. Reid, has taken this Chiefs franchise as far as one man can from the 2-14 team nightmare he inherited four years ago, to this moment in time. With one year left on his contract, Chairman Clark Hunt, must consider following the latest NFL trend to hire young a head coach. Further, with General Manager, John Dorsey a free agent after the Super Bowl, perhaps more shake-up is needed. It’s especially vital for the Chiefs make some coaching changes, because as we saw in plain sight Sunday night, Reid’s offensive stars, Jeremy Maclin, Travis Kelce, Eric Fisher, Tyreek Hill and Spencer Ware, were not ready to seize the moment that should have sent this team into the AFC title game. Under Reid and his so-called offensive genius, none of them had that prime-time mentality a head coach demands from himself first, and his players second. Peter Diana / Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Peter Diana / Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Now, had the Chiefs beaten the Steelers Sunday night, I’d be on record stating, there was zero chance Kansas City would win that game next Sunday night against the Patriots, but that doesn’t mean they should have lost to the Steelers at Arrowhead. For me, the 2016 season ended up being a wasted year for the entire Chiefs nation. Making the playoffs is great, and Reid deserves kudos for guiding Kansas City to the post season three of four years, yet that’s as far as he can take this franchise. Reid, has tried to cover up his ego filled errors all season long, and did a good job by going 12-4 and winning the AFC West. Yet before the season began, he named two offensive coordinators, neither of which has any say in KC’s offense, and placed significant reliance in Defensive Coordinator, Bob Sutton, to keep scores low, while Reid botched the direction of his stumbling offense. Adding to the fuel, name one game the Chiefs offense played four quarters of solid football in a single game this season. Sadly, I could rant until I’m blue in the face on the Reid conundrum, but I can’t see this organization having the guts to take a que from John Elway’s off-season approach. Rumor in Denver, Elway was so upset at missing the post season, he blew his entire coaching staff up, including nudging, Gary Kubiak, out the door for a younger model. These guys were teammates and Super Bowl champions together, but after one bad season, it was broom time in Denver. Though I’m not high on Elway’s choice for Head Coach, Vance Joseph, the Broncos are already a better football team in 2017 than the Chiefs. I based that largely on the staff Denver has put together on offense by adding, Mike McCoy and Bill Musgrave, to run their fledgling offense. Next season the Chiefs face a brutal road schedule including games at New England, NY Giants, NY Jets, Dallas Cowboys and the AFC West. Going 4-4 would be a magnificent achievement. However, Reid’s inability to continue that Arrowhead magic that was a staple under Marty Schottenheimer and Dick Vermeil, by losing three games at home this season, just adds one more notch on his inability to seize the opportunities he’s been presented in Kansas City. The Chiefs are a damn good football team, but Reid does not understand, that winning every snap of every game, builds a championship mentality. You run every play to succeed and you hold your staff accountable to do the same. There is zero accountability by the head coach on himself, so it’s insane to believe he can do the same with his staff. Reid, lives in the Buddy world of NFL coaches and it cost him in the eyes of the Chiefs nation after Sunday’s playoff loss at Arrowhead The fans, the local media, and players in that locker room, see it as well. Further, even though coaches have faltered in practice and on the sidelines in four seasons under Reid, he’s not fired a single assistant coach. As for Sutton, the man had his moments the last four seasons in Kansas City, but this team needs a younger defensive voice. Add that with the fact in 2017, the Chiefs could be without Eric Berry, Dontari Poe, Derrick Johnson and Tamba Hali. On offense, don’t blame Chiefs Quarterback, Alex Smith for this latest post season failure by the Chiefs.. Had Travis Kelce not dropped a long pass that would have set the Chiefs up first and goal in the third quarter, perhaps it’s a win. Had Jeremy Maclin not run the post route instead of a fly pattern on the last drive, KC would have had five extra minutes of game time. Had Eric Fisher simply spread his feet, used proper technique on his flagged holding call, that for all practical matters ended the Chiefs season, perhaps this column reads differently. The bottom line is the Chiefs are a good football team, but under Reid, they will never be a championship team that can compete for Super Bowls. There is no longer any dispute Reid’s coaching style is prohibitive to winning in the post season. Worse yet, most Chiefs fans are done with Reid as their head coach. To support him in the future, will be a tough sell for a fan base and it will reflect in ticket sales this off-season. The Chiefs fan base, despite Reid’s many coaching flaws, to make the changes in his game – that plagued him in Philadelphia. Instead, poor play calling, not using his players abilities within their skill set, and game clock management, continue to plague Reid. For the future, Kansas City will be lucky to be 8-8 next year. Reid will certainly be back, so will Sutton and his powerless co-offensive coordinators, but this football team will enter 2017, behind the Oakland Raiders and Denver Broncos in the division pecking order. The Kansas City Chiefs have not been to the Super Bowl since 1970 so you’d think someone smarter and richer than me, can’t see the obvious, Reid can win football games in the Fall and Winter, but not in January or February – when it’s fan base demand he does just that. And that’s the only reason you grind out training camp, pre-season games and the regular season, to prepare yourself for a Super Bowl run. Reid talks about it but is clueless to see what it will take to get it done, because he can’t look within to see he’s the reason this franchise continues to lay an egg in the playoffs. For this franchise to take on a new mantra, the Chiefs need a Championship coaching staff, one that could be centered with a young fiery leader unwilling to settle for anything less than the primary objective – win the DAMN Super Bowl. Because as we painfully watched Sunday Night, we know the old guard (Reid) simply does not work in Kansas City any longer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
