Two things I hope McDermott and the staff aggressively point out to the officiating crew is how often the Chiefs OT aren’t lined up on the line scrimmage. It gives the OT an advantage in mitigating the DE’s. Secondly, the amount of early/false starts Taylor has before the ball is snapped. Both give the Chiefs an advantage if not called. 

I would say the defensive holding is number 1 and the pre snap offensive stuff 2 

 

we are going to try and pressure / contain patrickmcreffy so idk if pre snap penalties will matter for the d

Maybe, like jazz, it's the points we DIDN'T score.

Many here don't abide by the directive: "do not feed the trolls."

 

The result is the corrupted thread that we are now enduring instead of enjoying.

 

We live in a world where people are more interested in hearing their own voice instead of the voices of others... and it's very important for too many, to have the last word.

 

I don’t agree

What's with the bickering? Can you all stop.

 

Certain individuals have a unique talent and will to create problems, make everything about them and then throw their hands up innocently.

Removing individuals like that can often make things better in a single stroke.

Bickering is literally why we are all here. Otherwise there's no point.... Bickering is the best!!!

Holy crap, that was the last road playoff victory?? That was a lifetime ago. I remember watching that game in my old girlfriend's house. We got engaged, broke it off later, then I graduated medical school, met and married my wife, had an entire career, been married for 23 years, and now I'm getting ready to retire.

 

WTF?

I'll say it again for the 3rd time.

I actually would like to see Buffalo win.

I just don't think it's SB 59 season.

That is all 

I was the same way going into this season. As the season progressed I’ve started to change my stance. Allen is playing the best he has ever play from a management leadership standpoint. I now think they can do it this year. 

 

It’s ok to Billieve!

I’m a 5 and a half away from Arrowhead , driving and considering it but I’d have to drive back for my 3 year old on Monday and I suspect it will be cold as hell so I will probably pass and if they make it go to the Super Bowl in NO which is 7 and a half away 

 

It's not forecast to be that cold.  32-ish falling into the mid-20s.  Unless you call that "cold as hell".  In which case WTF do you call tonight's low of -5F?

I think the chiefs are gonna have a hard enough time stopping the run especially if it’s gonna be one of those ‘blind eye to OL holding’ games

 

its flying under the radar but the bills have run the ball effectively on arguably the two best rushing defenses in the league to the point where Payton literally said in his press conference he was baffled by it and I’m sure Harbaugh would agree.  The chiefs rush defense is def good/fringe top 10 but ravens/broncos are on a whole other level

I honestly don't think it matters.  NBA, MLB, and NHL have full time officials and people complain just as much.  They pry should do it for optics though for gambling like you mentioned.

Hmmm..

you think that part time employees are just as good as full time?

 

Just a hypothetical. All things being equal, would you rather have your quad jump CABG done by a full time heart surgeon?  Or a surgeon who sells car insurance 5 days a week, and operates on 17 weekends in the fall?

 

It is completely ludakris that the NFL is a multi billion dollar industry that operates with part time employees. Do the math. 8 man crews x 16 games = 128 employees. Pay them 500K each. That’s $60 million per year. About 0.3% of the NFL gyearly gross. 
 

Or the same as Deshaun Watsons guaranteed salary.

The Texans had success running on KC and their Oline is considerably worse than ours. We will need to threaten more through the air than last week and the ground game should open that up for us.

Oddly specific and why would a surgeon sell car insurance?

 

Like I said, people are going to biotch no matter what but it is bad optics by the NFL not to have full time refs.  Although, then you have basically admitted to a mistake.
