Thoughts on the AFCCG
 

My unsolicited (and no doubt unwanted) thoughts on an amazing AFCCG

1. First, amazing game. Put aside the rooting interest and the result, and that was one hell of a crazy, entertaining football game, with multiple lead changes and more drama than any damn reality show has to fake create. The game earned the highest TV ratings of any show since last year's Super Bowl, and it delivered. A Patriots beat guy tweeted that the game was "bananapants" with about four minutes left to play, which was before like two touchdowns, a FG, a couple of replay reviews, and an overtime!

2. As Chiefs fans, it looks to me like you have some great years ahead of you to look forward to. Mahomes is obviously the real deal, though still raw, and you have him on an underpaid contract for two more years I understand. Huge competitive advantage. Hill and Kelce are rare talents. Your OLine could be better, though, and your defense. Well, I don't need to say much there.

3. If it helps, think of it this way -- it took the GOAT coach and GOAT QB overtime to beat you even though (1) the Patriots had few penalties, and the team overall played very disciplined all game, (2) the Chiefs defense just sucks right now, (3) Patriots somehow held the Chiefs scoreless in the first half, (4) the Pats kept Hill/Kelce to under 100 yards total, (5) the Chiefs running game was shut down, and (6) the Patriots successfully played "keep away" from the Chiefs offense for most of the game, running about 2 plays on offense for every 1 the Chiefs had. I mean, it's ridiculous how much effort that took. IMHO, the fact that the Patriots KNEW the Chiefs had a hell of a team is proven by Brady's over the top joyous reaction to winning. He's the ultimate "been there, done that" guy and he still acted like a rookie who had won the championship itself when they won.

4. IMHO Belichick and the Patriots coaches won this game far more than any individual player on the Patriots side. I thought Brady was unexceptional most of the game -- but the Patriots game plan was outstanding, on all sides of the ball. Keep away on offense by pounding the ball relentlessly and chewing up clock. Demoralizing/tiring the Chiefs defense. Not allowing the Chiefs offense to get into a rhythm. Good pass rush which kept Mahomes in the pocket, generated pressure, but didn't allow Mahomes to scramble where he is so ridiculously dangerous. It was honestly a thing of beauty as a game plan, in my opinion. It's a great demonstration of why Belichick is the GOAT coach.

5. The Chiefs OLine didn't look good at all. The Patriots completely shut down the run, and were able to control the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. That's not surprising for the Patriots OLine, which is excellent, but for the Chiefs OLine to be that poor is troubling. Not sure what is up there as I haven't seen many Chiefs games, but if that's a trend you should be concerned. Mahomes style of play is higher risk than you'd like, and keeping him safe should be a high priority.

6. Mahomes is obviously going to be a great one, if he isn't already, but he's still young. He failed to recognize a number of things the Patriots had going on, such as the McCourty blitz. When a safety who is usually playing deep is cheating near the line, that's a signal. He also needs to work his reads/progressions faster. But he's a freaking first year QB. His 50 TDs were "inflated" due to his ridiculous support at the skill positions, but that crap doesn't happen by accident, and we all know most QBs would not have gotten anywhere near 50 TDs even with that talent. Hell, Mahomes' arm and Hill's speed are a match made in heaven for you guys, and a combo that could power you to great heights.

7. I stayed silent during the week building up to the game, but I never did understand how so many Chiefs fans thought they would completely blow the Patriots off the field. I know their year has been one of ups and downs, but if you've watched the NFL over the last two decades, you should've known the Patriots weren't going to come in and roll over for you guys the way the limp-ass, young, inexperienced Colts did. Hell, if it wasn't for the "Miracle in Miami" that game would've been in Foxboro instead of Arrowhead. A tip for the future -- learned the hard way -- NEVER underestimate your opponent. If the 2007 Patriots could lose to the freaking 9-7 Giants, then "any given Sunday" is an absolute reality, and not just a pithy phrase.

8. I have to end with a comment on the many Cheatriots comments. They are sad. When the Patriots keep winning just as relentlessly after these ridiculous scandals as before, what does that tell you about whether or not these scandals made any sense at all? Apparently some want to believe the Patriots just have other ways of cheating to keep on winning, or that they can blame the weak AFC East. Neither makes any sense. The fact is you lost to the greatest dynasty in NFL history, the GOAT coach and GOAT QB, and while they might be in decline, they certainly ain't dead yet, as they proved yet again.

Good luck next year. May we meet again in the AFCCG, with an equally entertaining game and the same result!! :D

It's nice your princess QB gets brushed by a hand and you get flags out of it.

**** off.

Nobody is going to read this fyi

Yeah.

**** you.

We were 6 inches away from Tom and Bill blowing a 14-0 half time lead and Brady throwing 3 picks.

Congrats though.

If it's "no doubt unwanted," why are you typing a novel?

What's nice is that the Patriots are going to their fifth AFCCG and fourth Super Bowl since you declared him dead at the start of the 2014 season. ROFL

Nice. Okay, I’ll handshake and tip of the cap to you.

You left out.......You were a lined up in the neutral zone away from the dynasty is over story line. Brady threw 3 interceptions, bills defense let them score 31 point in a half etc.



But, since it’s CP........Obligatory......**** Off!

I don't think it's more unwanted for being long. :D

Don’t you have a Patriots board to look at Tom making out with his son to be at?

Brady has a 63 QB rating Sunday night if Dee Ford lines up correctly.

And five Super Bowl rings. Let's face it, he's the GOAT no matter what he does from here on out. If he goes off the proverbial cliff, then "he should've hung 'em up earlier."

Tom Brady threw a game ending pick, his 3rd of the day, to the worst defense in the league. Saved by an all time blunder by Dee Ford. Tom Brady is 3-0 in OT playoff games. His opponent hasn't gotten the ball once in those games. The Golden Boy's luck knows no bounds.

Go buttchug a quart of Freddie Mercury's blood.

I agree with #4

Andy Reid supposes to be an offensive genius has a franchise QB and puts up 0 points in the 1st half. That's a joke. Got outcoached so much it wasn't funny.

Your team has ruined the NFL for a generation of fans. Congrats.

He put up 31 in the 2nd half.

You guys really should be better than posting that sort of bullshit. The drive before featured the Patriots recovering a Chiefs fumble, only to have that be negated by a holding call that had nothing to do with the play. A huge gain for the Chiefs was the result of a blatantly illegal pick play where contact was made well past the one yard limit. Eric Berry was dry humping Gronk down the field on play after play, and that wasn't getting called.

So your whining about an obviously valid call is ridiculous.

This is the only thing of pedo tom that should be on the TV these next 2 weeks.

Agree.

Except we’re going to sweep you next year, if you’re lucky enough to make the playoffs

I don’t agree with the Cheatriots hyperfocus but you guys did cheat. In a real way. Not like tampering. Like steroid users in baseball, you’ll never overcome that stigma and it’s fair.

I was one of the fans who thought this was our game and our year. Brady played outstanding down the stretch with a hat tip to our defense which was a joke. You win that one, but Chiefs fans being excited and optimistic doesn’t mean anything. We just want to win. And are desperate.

I agree with your take on the game.

And I’ll take any even up bets that we get farther than the Patriots next season.

Thanks for waiting 48hrs to post this. You’re not trolling but you still have a fanbase that’s vile and deserves none of this. You’re okay.

More like GBPM2 :D

Honestly - we just got plain beat.

We had Brady at 3rd and long 3 times on that final drive.

This is on Sutton, Reid and Veach. Let's hope the latter 2 are ready to fix the problem that kept us from a title.

:eek:

Congrats on winning the coin toss.

Shove a giant cactus doused in antifreeze into both of your eyes and then shove it up your ass.

He did but it wasn't enough

You idiots couldn’t help indulging this turd poster


He played you like a fiddle, lol!

Can we make him cry again by changing his name to asterisks?

I've heard Ford's break down, but I thought they were talking about trucks!

I read it all and he makes some good points. He is respected member of this board and deserves the respect to be read.


Bottom line, that all being said, Bellichick out coached Andy's staff.

End of story. The Chiefs players themselves compensated for most of the short comings, but not quite enough.

**** the Patriots and Tom ****ing Brady!

Enjoy this, because it is over after this year, you are ****ing done.

Go **** yourself

Patriots fans are the most arrogant pussies on Earth. They LUCKED into a great QB and you can't say they didn't by taking the child molester in the 5th round. Their days are going to be over soon and they will suck shit for the next 50 years and all of the NFL fandom will rejoice. And no i'm not wasting my time reading the OP. Don't care!

**** off. Dee Ford cost us a SB on one ****ing stupid play. Mahomes outplayed Brady and they were given another SB.

That didn't sound like whining about a call to me at all. They called it an all time blunder by Ford (time will tell if it lives with Chris Webber's time out and other fun championship gaffes.) Sounds right to me. Nothing about it being a bad call.

Your mom sure liked it!

It's certainly ruined the expectations for all fan bases. Now every fan base wants to be the next dynasty dominating for the next 20 seasons. That shit is never going to happen again. What the Patriots have is a perfect storm.

Never understood why the **** you post here and not in the Pat's forum with the other massholes.

The Patriots very rarely beat themselves. And Belichick just keeps replacing guys year in and year out, and no matter who he puts in there they’re successful. Been the best coach in the league. Pretty remarkable what he’s done in the era of the salary cap. All the credit doesn’t go to Brady. Belichick put him in a position to succeed. To beat them you have to play smart. Dee Ford cost the Chiefs the game, it’s over if he’s not off side.

You **** off! How about the ****ing roughing call.

It was not one or two plays, many mistakes were made before that play.

But yeah, it sucked ass.

I saw someone on here saying the LT was illegally far off the LOS on the Ford offsides play. From this angle you can see that Trent Brown’s helmet is at the center’s hip so its legal. Absurd how big Brown is, which screws up your perspective a bit.

Mods, do God's work.

Put this douche in the red and keep him there. Maybe even Miserable User this prick.

Brady and Billichick have made a deal with the devil. No two people have ever been this lucky in life.

They're great at what they do but come on! From the tuck rule to the stupid call by the Seahawks to throwing picks that are negated to winning coin tosses. Not to mention hundreds of calls that somehow always go their way.

Gronk is NOT the best TE in history. He's just the biggest one with hands the size of snow shovels.

Brady is NOT the GOAT. He's the GSQBOAT. Greatest System QB of all time. Just like Mahomes got lucky to have Andy, he's benefited from Belichick.

Belichick IS the GOAT coach. That's undeniable.

But still damn lucky.

If I was a Pats fan I'd be in therapy. Seriously, how can you sleep at night knowing how the NFL gifts you all your trophies? You MUST feel guilty if you have any conscious at all.

Good read.

I hoped before the game that we were going to get to see Belichick at his best. He certainly didn’t disappoint me.

IMHO, all of us who have spent a lifetime enjoying football should consider ourselves fortunate to have witnessed what this Patriots team has been able to achieve.

I’d like to see them hoist another in a couple weeks.

Worst post of the year so far, if serious.

I'm not going to get all butthurt.

But quite frankly, we should have blown you guys off the field. Reid shit the bed, and that opened the doors to the refs inserting themselves, and opened the door for Ford to cement himself as the dumbest **** in a long line of dumb****s. ****!

The Patriots deserve all the credit for the preparation and execution that they are obviously the best in the league at. Let's be real here, Patriots shut down the offense because Reid failed to gameplan for the blitzes the Patriots cooked up. Mahomes was obviously not prepared for them and was taken by surprise - and it's really the first time all season. It's not like they physically couldn't do it, they rock and rolled the second half. Reid ****ed that up hard. Anything at all of a drive and the Defense doesn't have a shot at puking up that TD just before half. That in and of itself is ballgame.

Even more maddeningly, anyone with half a goddamned brain - obviously not Sutton or Reid, the ****s knew that the Patriots were going to run power. But we were totally un****ing prepared for it. We did a good enough job stopping it in the 2nd, so again it was a gameplan issue. And For ****s ****ing sake, if the defense would sit on the short routes and make Brady beat them deep, I'm convinced would have worked since he's essentially a much faster read Alex Smith at this point, I've seen the song and dance. But that is a little further down the speculation road, so let's leave that alone.

If the Chiefs do a painfully small amount of gameplanning, they do blow you out of the building.

But no, we're the Chiefs. We can't ****ing manage to not shit down our ****ing legs, even though we're good enough to overcome that, it still opens the door to get ****ed by the refs, Ford to shit all over the field and the defense to get ****ing gassed.

You don't ever know that because you have the GOAT coach and the GOAT QB that demand excellence.

Appreciate the insight and the civility. You don't deserve any ire, you've been good. Your contemporaries have been ****s of the lowest order, but you're alright.

But yes, if the staff does any gameplanning instead off playing with their ****ing dicks, you get blown out. Like it or not.

Congrats on the coin flip. How long will Brady stick around and be mediocre just to pad his stats now that he knows there’s a QB that is coming for his records at 23 already. Has to make him nervous to think about how much of a head start Mahomes has on him already. I mean Brady could add his collegiate stats to his first couple years in the league and they still don’t touch the year Mahomes had. He has to know his legacy won’t hold up too much longer. This league is changing so fast.

What happens when you go in red? Do you get a warm fuzzy feeling? I like warm fuzzy feelings.:)

Literally the league MVP last year....?

And yes, every passing and receiving record is going to fall as the NFL continues to move in the direction they are going. What won't fall soon are the ridiculous WINNING records. Most games won, most playoff games won, most SB games won, winning percentage, etc. ad infinitum. It's absurd.

Sure I’m serious. I get it, though. A lot of folks get emotional about “their” team. Nothing necessarily wrong with that.

If Dee Ford lines up correctly the Chiefs win... not sure why the Faketriots OP felt the need to write a 10,000 word thesis.

ROFLROFLROFL

Tom Brady isn't better than football than Mahomes, but he's certainly better at getting coin flips to go his way.

Records are meant to be broken. If we can get even a decent defense around Mahomes I don’t think anyone doubts he can overtake all those records. He’ll start getting the same preferential star treatment Brady gets and then the sky’s the limit. Then again I guess Brady had the tuck rule his first year, so he’s kind of always had the league on his side, huh?

I say ban him until the Pats lose the SB, then let him back. Because the Pats, who are plenty good, have always been aided by the league's officials, I hate him being here to remind us of their charmed life and our anti-charmed life.

As Lew said, do God's work until they've lost the SB.

I for one am glad that Mahomes has Andy and not Payton or Mccarthy. We are looking at a kid who has Aaron Rodgers level type of talent in play making ability. Maybe even a hire ceiling. Even tho you can argue that he is stacked with talent I think it's safe to think with time even with average talent he's going to put mvp numbers routinely

And in reality, that should have been a warning to Dee and not a penalty. This type of influence by the zebras is what pisses off football fans.

Sheesh after reading the replies you assholes deserve another 50 years without a Super Bowl appearance. I'm going to enjoy the next two weeks leading up yet another Super Bowl while you all can keep crying about coin flips, roughing the passers and neutral zone infractions.

All the Patriots fans think ALL of the dislike towards their team is envy..."They hate us 'cause they ain't us". They're in so much denial about the shame they should have about what their team did. They'll never understand but in this country people HATE cheaters...no matter how successful their cheating benefits them...just ask Lance Armstrong.

We have Mahomes and you have maybe 1 good year left in TB. you can have your rings cause our fun is just about to start. Living in the past is for losers.

Douche joins CP and makes his first post...ROFL

not going to discredit the big time throws , the leadership, the pre-snap adjustments, the dedication TB12 puts out there BUT ..

When you see how close all of the pats games have finished in year's past you absolutely cannot down play the cheating that they were caught doing. it gives them just enough of an edge to get over the top. makes you wonder what other dishonesty was going on that wasn't seen.

You're on a Chiefs forum dipshit, and even casual fans hate the Patriots. They have legit destroyed a sport for a generation of people.

Kill yourself

OP needs to go **** itself off the face of this earth.

East coast ****ing liberal one who sucks the penis.

Not really living in the past when I'm looking forward to watching my team play in the Super Bowl in two weeks. I like Mahomes so I'm not going to shit on him, just your stupid fan base. Enjoy the Super Bowl asshole.

Cheaters victory lap...

Get hit by a bus in front of your ugly family, you piece of shit

You seem very upset the Chiefs won't be playing in the Super Bowl.

I'm upset that you're still breathing

Don't you have a pressure cooker to make something in? If not, aren't you busy providing material support for terrorists?

Look I know you’re upset that the Chiefs lost to the Patriots in the playoffs again, this time at home and blew the best chance of playing in the Super Bowl in 50 years. Maybe some Melissa Ethridge music will settle you down.

When Brady retires to spend more time French kissing his kids and Faketriot fans face an immediate future of having Brian Hoyer as their QB, I am pretty sure they will all vanish like a fart in the wind.

Will someone please tell me where the faketriots moniker came from? I don't get that one. I get the cheatriots one.

I'm sure Tom will be playing long into his 60s. Lord knows all he has to do is stand there and the officials will do the rest.

Derived from the fact that most of their fans are fake... 98% of current Faketriot “fans” have only been on the team’s bandwagon since Belichick/Brady began winning Super Bowls.

Let’s see if these Faketriot fans continue posting on here when Brady retires, Mahomes is dominating the league, and Brian Hoyer is your immediate QBOTF.

I'm not a Chiefs' fan but registered just to respond to this post.


You're truly lacking in an understanding of NFL history if you really believe Brady is the greatest QB of all time. I suggest you study eras when QB's weren't protected and before rule changes made the passing game much easier.

LMAO

9. You forgot to thank the teams in the AFC lEast for being a group of antifreeze chugging, AIDS infested, non-competitive losers which hand the Patriots 5-6 wins each year. Don't forget the schedule makers which have you playing the toughest opponents at home each year.

EAT A DICK BITCH!!!!

That was over the line man! Wait, what did I say?
