Its 3rd and 27. Game is tied at 31 with 3 minutes left on the clock. The Bengals are on the 41. The Chiefs aren't just trying to stop a 1st down they are zero blitz because they want to keep the Bengals from getting the 6ish yards from field goal range. Joe Burrow sees the zero blitz the 1 on 1 man coverage vs Chase and throws a great ball.
266 yards on the DEY for Ja'Marr. That's a team record for receiving yards in a game.

Football is situational. Because the Chiefs were trying to force the Bengals out of field goal range it kept them from playing a normal 3rd and long defense. Because of that opportunity the Bengals were able to capitalize because they were prepared for that defense.
Luck is what happens with preperation meets opportunity.
Nicely done Synric. Perfectly said on all points and even have the vid to back it up. Just a great throw from Burrow and
adjustment from Chase, great execution against what the Defense was showing and made it look easy. That ain't no fluke!
