The more I watch this play the more I think the defender did a good job. Put it at 1/4 speed. The defender actually stops before he gets there just as the receiver backs into the same spot. Im ok with the call still because you cant slow that down on the field. To me thats good defense though. Just my opinion right or wrong. Dont really care but its fun watching this stuff in slow mo.

Since we have some 0-2 teams to keep an eye on in our conference, I thought I'd post this little tidbit from an sb nation article... Over the past three seasons since the expansion to a 17-game schedule, 21 teams have opened the season 0-2. Only two have eventually made the playoffs. In 2023, nine teams started the season 0-2 and the Houston Texans were the only team to make the playoffs. They finished 10-7 and won the AFC South. The year prior, five teams started 0-2 and only the Cincinnati Bengals made the playoffs. They finished 12-4 and won the AFC North. In 2021, seven teams started the season 0-2 and none of them made the playoffs. In 2020, when the league expanded to a 14-team playoff field, 11 teams started with an 0-2 record and none of those teams made the playoffs. Prior to 2020, the NFL adopted a 12-team playoff format in 1990. Between 1990 and 2019, 12% of teams that started 0-2 reached the playoffs. https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/24245523/0-2-start-nfl-playoffs-how-likely-history-last-season

No not this bad. Taking underneath stuff and quick passes sure. All those passes behind the LoS no not really.

This might be the most pathetic looking passing chart I've ever seen. Their entire offense has shifted to throwing behind the los. Im not even saying anything against Mahomes here. You have MAHOMES. Throwing all his passes behind the los. Ok its not all but its half of his passes. He only threw 6 passes past the 5 yard line and 2 of them were INTS. 2 of them incompletions. Also a tight game like that and only 25 passes. Only 151 yards. I had to go look because I remember commenting on it in the game that he hadnt thrown a pass past the LoS. It was pathetic.

Diggs final stat line... 6 targets 4 catches 37 yards

4th and 17 never gave a receiver a chance. Caleb is not a good QB. He has terrible oline but still.

They have a chance if their D can stand up

slide at the los my god

Thats IG isnt it?

Bears ball!

Terrible pass

Do Bears have a pass play that isnt inside the LoS?

Diggs thus far.... 4 targets 2 catches 26 yards

Ill be honest. The Bears are giving them a tougher time than I thought they would.

Imagine trusting your kicker to make a long kick and he makes it

Stroud is closer to Josh than Lamar. Stroud is a way better passer and processor than Lamar.

uh oh boards gonna explode

That tip was in the air for like 5 minutes and no one looked for it lol

That 5 yard pass was a "tremendous throw"

Was Diggs even on the field at all that drive? I'm watching on iPad right now off to the side of my computer but didn't see him.

Its still funny. People take stuff too seriously sometimes.

I know it was a legit call. I just find it hilarious that everyone knows that free first down is coming every time the Chiefs are in a tight game.

Lol look at that late ass flag. Who coulda seen that coming?

No friggin way

McDermott special right there
