I think an unpopular opinion of mine is refs contributed too sadly.

Would that also include the missed blatant DPI on LVD in the end zone on the 4th down stop?

Then we run some retarded play backed up in our own territory instead of a HB dive, and Baker fumbles.  The game ended there.

The same HB dive you were just bitching about on 2nd and long?

Just checking

 

2nd and 24 versus 1st and 10. See if you can spot the difference FireBestGM

 

That same drive we went run run for a total of 3 yards before Mike's incredible first down play.

Like JC, you both have your blinders on thinking we can run 40 times and win this game.

18 carries 78 yards from the running backs.

Baker upped our average considerably but those don't count imo.

We ran the ball at a 4.3 clip which is ok but it's not a number you can hang your hat on... As evident by the 2 runs for 3 yards and PROBABLY why Coen felt the need to test the edge.

But sure... Let's just never pass the ball and just run a HB dive all game like Lefty.

All year Coen never embraced the running game and treated Tucker like a piece of shit.

who said i want to run 40 times a game?  by your very acknowledgment we ran twice for no yards and then Mike make a huge play.  Clearly the running on first two downs isnt a good formula. 

its now first down, mikes probably a little tired after that play, completely fine to run the ball there on first down.

For no gain?

I'm telling you they were playing the run pretty well especially when you consider how bad they were all year and how good we were. The line didn't play that well.

I didn't like the sweep at the time but the more I've thought about it I think it made sense to test the edge with a big gain then run that same motion again but give it to Bucky inside.

He was setting up future plays, it just sucks the play got messed up by timing.

They played the inside and we had the edge sealed. 

That should’ve been an explosive. 

Just didn’t execute. I don’t mind the call.

yeah agree its a shame because it was a good call and well set up for a big gain

 

Thats one reason it was such a pivotal play.  You cant have your shit D make a 4th down goal line stand and then give it right back.  You could feel the wind knocked out

Chiefs are in a 13-12 game. Bucs fan logic this is their defense’s fault

Is this the same Chiefs defense that has 8 sacks and forced 2 punts?

They chiefs Defense allowed 12 points, had 8 sacks, blocked a fg, etc.

How can you possibly compare that defensive performance that came up clutch on the final 4 drives to our defense letting Washington march down the field to win the game with 23 points scored and dominated the TOP.

The only difference between our game vs WAS and the KC game is an offensive fumble deep in own territory. Brutal blow for those complaining about the D all week
