Ceedee came back like 2 plays later. He didn’t exit the game. But also ended with 39 still.

I thought he left, came back, then left again? I saw him standing on the sideline with helmet off a lot. I’m not suggesting he was pulled intentionally. They were also running it to kill the clock. If he played more than i remember, was he targeted again after that DPI that initially hurt him?

How can a ref miss that PI? How?

Bears fired Eberflus. We had the game on in the background yesterday, and I loosely saw what happened. I went back and watched more closely last night, and his press conference. 

Total incompetence. He wanted to run the same play to try and get back into FG range but it obviously didn’t happen fast enough. Okay, why not call a timeout when you see the clock winding down? 

The Hail Mary against Washington was bad enough. He basically said hold my beer and watch me do it again.

To successful pull the "There was nothing wrong with my decision; things just didn't work out" card, two things need to be truth.

1. A random person's eye test is not screaming, "WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON YOU DUMBASS; WHY IS THE CLOCK RUNNING OUT; YOU CAN STOP IT; WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!?!???!!!".

2. As a coach, you've had the success to build up enough good will to give people a reason to give you the benefit of the doubt because when they think about it, you're usually rock solid with your late game decisions.

Eberflus went 0-for-2 on that and did so emphatically enough that the Bears actually fired him. I'm actually a bit surprised at that. Sure, the fans hate him and the players seem to be starting the "Wasn't my idea" throwing under the bus, but the way they do things up there, I figured they'd let him hang on as a lame-duck.

I still can’t think of a more outrageous clock mismanagement in football…any level.

There were so many defendable options.

Well deserved firing. What a dingus.

Chiefs make a catch with 14 seconds on clock and officials stop the game to see if catch or no catch but then it’s a 10 second run off? Chiefs were flying to the line and going to have it downed around 6-7 second mark it looked.

What if he makes that catch at 10 seconds? They definitely get it spiked….but clock would’ve been at 0

Rule needs adjusted slightly

This stuff doesn’t make any sense.

Why was QB not watching? Was just going to be a 4-6 yard out to the sideline….maybe an 8 yard pass over middle and a quick spike 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hadn’t had crowd noise issues all game. Should’ve had a FG to win it.

Crazy stuff. Chiefs are playing like the 20th best team the last 3 weeks

The Chiefs have been eeking out wins all fucking season. I’ve never seen anything like it. Who did they sell their souls to to have all this good luck. It’s going to catch up to them in the playoffs right?

That’d be fun. The other scary possibility is they lose in the AFC championship to the Ravens

Lamar or Allen will need to not do what they tend to do in big games. Henry and Flowers make Ravens so much more dynamic than in the past.
