posted by friendfromlowryThree losses, two to Baltimore and one to KC by a combined five points. Just not their season.
In those three losses they had quite a few offensive possessions when they had the lead they couldn't score to extend the lead. I'm thinking that their points per possession with the lead are way worse than when tied or behind.

On the next to last Atl drive, Cousins had the lead taking TD on the relatively short over the top throw down the left sideline that he didn't throw long enough.
KC defense too tough for the weakened O-line to have success on their running game at crunch time -- need to get a little innovation. Reed always has something ready!

Browns have been dealing with this with Denzel Ward. He's on his 5th or 6th concussion, I believe.

Both teams made the same mistake at the end of regulation and the first overtime, when then game was tied and they were trying score at the buzzer. Your chances to win are much better if you shoot at 4 sec to give time for a rebound winner, and both failed to do that, and let a buzzer beater win escape them.

posted by majorsparkThere is a large enough base of people with a nostalgia for fast food that higher prices don't seem to have much of an affect on. The marketing dilemma they face is how to hook future customer in this manner.
I foresee a future where AI scans your car when pulling up to the drive-thru, and adjusts the prices accordingly. Will give rise to the "fast food beater" kept in the garage for runs to McD's.

I'm in perfect shape for a KC 23-19 win!
On a bad snap, then he puts the kick off thru from 75.

That was fun
When that pass left Jennings' hand, it looked like there would be no good outcome for SF!

You have a chance to take the lead from 2 to 3 scores with a field goal, you kick the damn ball.

Karma on Flowers
Officials doing a much better job spotting the ball than the games last weekend. However when that last punt went dead at the 7.5 yard line, the official spotted it correctly with his foot, then when he got the ball in his hands he spotted it right at the 8 to get in on an even yard.
posted by gutI don't know that BAL offense scares me enough not to kick the FG there to go up 10.
I guess the other 4th down worked out pretty well for KC, but not sure they were in FG range that time.
Would have been a 51 yarder.
Chiefs should have listened to Romo about passing for 1st downs on short yardage.
In 2 drives, Kelce has catches for a TD and 3 first downs.
Seems like KC has kind of flipped that switch again. A lot of people wanting to write them off this year, but at this point you can't bet against Mahomes and Reid.
A bumbled sack costs KC a TD.
Why not grounding on Lamar, not outside the tackles and not past the line of scrimmage in bounds.
