Ward joins in calling out Bob Sutton

[TwistedChief]

First, let me just say that the Star is putting out much, much better content this year with their new team.

Anyway,

Ward is talking about a third-and-10 in overtime, when Patriots receiver Julian Edelman split wide to the right, then motioned toward slot receiver Phillip Dorsett at the snap. Ward followed Edelman, the snap timed so that Dorsett rubbed Ward and gave Edelman an extra step.

Tom Brady’s pass, of course, was completed. First down. Three plays later, another conversion. Three plays after that, the touchdown that ended the Chiefs’ season.

"I knew that was coming,” Ward says. “But I couldn’t do nothing about it.”

Ward means he could not stop it because of how he and his teammates were coached. The Patriots had run the exact same play on a third down earlier in the drive, on the other side of the field: Edelman split wide left, motioning toward Dorsett in the slot, his route aided by a rub, the pass completed for a first down.

"So I knew it was coming,” Ward continues. “I couldn’t do nothing about it because I was told to stay down. If I would’ve been like, ‘Nah, nah, nah, let’s in-and-out,’ it would’ve played out different. (If they) kick a field goal, miss or make it, Pat Mahomes goes down and scores a touchdown and we win the game and we’re in the Super Bowl.

“I was instructed to stay down, but I could’ve told (fellow cornerback Kendall) Fuller, ‘Man, let’s in-and-out.’ Because the same thing just happened on the other side.”

Ward pauses. Bob Sutton, then the Chiefs’ defensive coordinator, had been clear in his directives on the Patriots’ fateful drive. Players lose jobs for freelancing.

“But I’m the one that’s playing,” Ward says. “I still could’ve overruled that, and told Fuller, ‘Let’s work together.’”

Another pause.

“Bob was ... man.”

One more pause.

“I ain’t going to say nothing about that.”

Yeah, the players were salty after all the Vikings fans and their SKOL shit invaded Arrowhead a few weeks ago. But you know what? Win home games and that won't happen.

Calling forward progress on a ****ing sack makes me want to murder baby seals.

In fact, Andy seems incapable of beating the Titans. I'll be scared shitless if they come back to Arrowhead.

Every winning coach has some regular, dipshit/reerun opponent that gives them fits on the regs, but yeah that's an absurd and shitty one to have to call your "thorn".

Incorrect. The SCW game is where the intelligent fan learns from the MANY mistakes of Lil' Chiefy, and seeks to steer both fans and franchise away from repeating said mistakes. Failure to "play this game" results in too many Chief fans repeating the same tired, circular arguments over and over again which usually involve defending some dipshit coach, player, or owner, when what said fan SHOULD be doing is raking that moron over the coals for continuing to "piss on the carpet", so to speak.
