Success

I can't remember a season like this. The Pats dominated for a long time - but I can't remember them getting this many wins, this way. The only way the universe will make any sense is if this all leads up to the Chiefs losing by a significant blowout in the 1st round.

How do you snap it there? How do you blow it on the LAST PLAY? God. Every damned time w/ KC.

KC is a joke. They are a joke.

Oh, man - he almost broke loose.

Raiders - every single fan in the nation outside of KC is pulling for you right now. Especially Buffalo.

Please don't go Offside on the punt.

That's ridiculous. KC is ridiculous. These frauds will NOT win the Super Bowl this year.

KC is fraudulent.

Happy Thanksgiving, all! It was that Dallas/Bills game a few years back on Thanksgiving Day when America started to take notice of Allen. He had some amazing plays that game.

Isn't this story just one Chief?

How many big plays did he make? Allen had a ton of turnovers last year, too - and the Bills still ended up with a great record and high seed. Largely because of Allen. A stat like the one above without any other context is absolutely meaningless.

Mahomes' coaching situation is more of a differentiator, imo. Reid & Spags are both at the top of the game. I don't think the Bills coaching is bad, but there isn't a comparison there.

That was not a good Tyrod Taylor team, and they didn't have a good record, and they completely backed into the playoffs w/ a miracle play in another game the final week. Mahomes' situation was so much better than Allen's entering the league.

Chargers had some chances in this one. Not over yet, but feels like they blew it.

Gotta disagree w/ this. Allen has been as clutch as any QB I've seen when a game is on the line - certainly in the playoffs, and even games like last week against KC. Mahomes has gotten quite a few more big plays from his defense in the playoffs, and against the Bills - that's the biggest difference to me.

No - Mahomes' unchallenged scamper to get into range for the game-winning FG today was not on par w/ Allen's historic and clutch TD run last week. Not even close.

The Chiefs are my new "shake fists at sky" team. The Patriots previously held that position.

I think titles factor in. But I still consider Marino one of the best. It's less than 50% of the consideration. Sometimes, great QB's just don't end up in great situations.

We've discussed this before. I don't disrespect your opinion - but you're talking about more of a casual analysis. To say Mahomes has to get to 5 kind of shows the absurdity of the "titles" argument. It's hard to get a title. It takes SO MUCH MORE than QB play. It takes great coaching, usually a great defense, and generally at least some luck. It's really the old Dilfer is nowhere near Marino argument. Eli isn't better than Peyton. I could go on & on. Titles are a team accomplishment.

I mean, people ARE putting Mahomes in the GOAT debate right now - even though Brady has 4 more titles. it's not illegitimate. Titles are a team accomplishment. I'm hearing a lot of it this year. In fact, most of the football world is starting to make that argument this year.

You posted a pic - not the play. It was incidental. It wasn't a good call. You tend to appeal to the authority of mass opinion. Why are you trying to cherrypick that?

I've actually seen more speculation from pundits this season that Allen is surpassing Mahomes. I've seen a lot more speculation on that. Sounds like you're clinging to opinion from previous years.

Over 90% of football fans thought those calls were bogus. It's not like it's "tainted championships" or anything like that. But the Chiefs have gotten the benefit of more calls than most.

Some weren't penalties. Cincy AFCCG, Philly in the SB. Chiefs have benefitted more than most from bad officiating in the biggest games. Sorry 'bout that. And hey - over 90% of football fans agree w/ me.

So, a penalty was properly called a penalty. Thanks for confirming.
