Agree. The Chiefs can win a dozen more Super Bowls in my lifetime. The damage is done.   But if the city of Cincinnati hoists a Lombardi Trophy before Buffalo, i will

be livid. 

Yeah the reality is they have a garbage fan base who is cocky as hell now after being absent for decades. Combine that with a number of douchey and/or criminal players and you have an easily hateable team.

Why? How is it different from a normal QB sneak? Or from pushing the pile when the RB has the ball? Or blocking for any ball carrier?

I don’t like pushing the pile at all frankly.

 

I prefer for the 11 v 11 game to be played against one another.  Blockers blocking for a running back means they are looking for and engaging with a defender.  It promotes matchups between opponent, the essence of the game.

 

A TE grabbing the shoulder pads of his QB at the point of the snap and pulling him forward isn’t matching up players against the other team, it’s in my

opinion a sham of an approach to the game.

Rams had a TD negated by a TO that Taylor called when the snap was already in the air.

That was egregious but the league can't possibly allow Cincy to start 0-3....bad for business.

Lucky the Chiefs have humble guys like Kelce

Joe’s calf is not well and could bother him for a good chunk of this season. They have winnable games through week 6 then their schedule gets harder.

Tee Higgins probably shouldn't have greased his hands before the game.

he may not be aware. I had to do it, my son and my FFB win requires a single digit night from him. This is bigger than Vegas or nfl standings. 

[Billznut]

Rams just can’t get out of their own way tonight.

Still less of a prick than Burrow or a POS like Mixon

[DapperCam]

Refs really bailing out the Bengals in this game.

[zow2]

Some of these calls and reviews tonight.  Sometimes the NFL feels scripted.

[balln]

Haha. Game

[BillsFan130]

Rams are self destructing this game. Hard to watch

[LABILLBACKER]

Ref Steve Carell just doing what he's told.

[EmotionallyUnstable]

Down 7 points, 3rd and 16 with a quarter to go. A draw play? Come on 

[Warcodered]

The ***** did I just see? They threw on 3rd and 1 putting that linemen in a tough position and ran on 3rd and 16 really?

What did Burrow do? 

[Warcodered]

Tee Higgins in the lockeroom? looking for his hands?

[buffblue]

Ref calls, lucky bounces, Rams self inflicted wounds. It's all going Cincy's way now
