That guy will never live it down in KC; he might have to move and fly in for the games.

Do you really want me to list all the mistakes that swung the game to the Patriots? I mean I could make it short and say the entire first half because this is the first NFL game I've ever seen where a team lost the game in the first half but I will itemize instead.

1. Yes, Ford's offsides turned out to be the key play of the game.
2. Mahomes missing Williams on a wide open touchdown only to be immediately followed by...
3. Mahomes taking a sack to put KC out of field goal range.
4. Numerous 3rd and long situations where the defense couldn't get off the field.
5. Patriots being in Mahomes face all game long, particularly in the first half and meantime the league leaders in sack don't even touch Brady. You could have eaten a sandwich off of Brady's uniform at the end of the game.

6. Reid taking a time out with a minute left in the first half to give a New England team that didn't seem that interested in doing anything with the ball a chance to do something with the ball.

7. Reid challenging the catch by Hogan. It's the Patriots in the post season you aren't getting that call which would have been nothing more than a 50/50 chance of being reversed if it was a team other than New England. Wouldn't that time out you ate on the challenge have been helpful when you had the ball on New England's twenty yard line with twenty seconds left in the game and no time outs left?
