Didn't watch the video, didn't feel the need to.
It goes without saying that single elimination games are affected the most by 'luck.' It's the reason MLB/NBA/NHL do best-of-7 series. It's why pro pool tournaments are always race-to-13 or more. Playing more games reduces the luck factor. However, it's tough to say it was luck when a team wins 3 out of four SBs in a relatively short period like 5 years. Sure, there's going to be some luck involved in any game, but luck isn't usually consistent for one team over another either. |

This bullshit started with labeling DBs dropping interceptions and WRs dropping passes as being defined as luck. Your DBs or WRs ability to catch a ball isn't luck, it's a lack of skill or concentration.
Is this thing worth watching beyond those two examples? |

The variation evens out in the end. What’s left over time is skill/talent.

People severely underestimate how much Mahomes wears down these defenses with the scrambling.

at this nonsense. I’ve seen us commit more turnovers, penalties, and drop more passes and STILL win the ****ing game. Good luck and bad luck is everywhere… we’re just a better football team than everyone else.

The whole "luck" debate kinda reminds me of that scene in Major League, where the fans in the outfield are arguing about the trajectory of the ball, and finally one of them says
"Who gives a shit, it's gone" Luck, no luck, bad bounce, good bounce, who gives a shit? The Chiefs are the B2B Champions. I don't care why or how. |

Well, if in fact it was “luck”, as a Chiefs fan, we were apparently due a bunch of of it

We're lucky 9 teams passed on Patrick Mahomes in 2017.
Past that point, all the other luck is negligible. |
