Couple obvious pick plays, hands to the face on the Chiefs' OL all night long. Typical holding on offense and defense. Missed facemask that everyone watching could see from a mile away and the opposite side of the camera. An obvious non-catch that could have turned the game.
This was just another horrendous officiating night. The Chiefs will get away with 90% of their penalties and we'll be grateful they called 10%.
There was one play on the last drive where he actually took advantage of that setup and Josh missed it. You can't run an ineffective play all game long just for one play. You don't even know if you'll have the opportunity or if it will work.
Good points. But calling run plays up the middle on 90% of 1st downs when the Chiefs are playing against the run all night trumps all that.
That's why I said a better coordinator than play caller. He clearly has these backups ready to go as well as possible, he's just not calling a good game.
See: run up the middle on 3rd & 2 that just happened.
I'm sure the coaches stressed all week to never give up on coverage when Mahomes rolls out. Mahomes didn't even have anywhere to run with our defenders closing in, and Douglas should have been able to see that.
Let's not get carried away. Chiefs are setting picks, holding on both sides every play, had an uncalled facemask on the final Bills drive of the second half.
But at least they haven't completely given the game away, yeah.
