- The defense didn't touch the ball.
- The pass rush couldn't get to Mahomes.
- Boyd injury and OL shortcomings stalled the offense at times.
- Our running game lacks burst.
It was a goods season, I'm disappointed with the loss, but props to the Chiefs for earning a W.
There were plenty of blatant missed calls but I also agree the Bengals were just simply outplayed. They just couldn't get to Mahomes and when they did, it was a play that cost us the game and watching Germaine Pratt throw Ossai under the bus was unnecessary. You win and lose as a team.
I'm really heartbroken right now. They had a phenomenal season and although you can't really beat the Chiefs every time you play them, I really wanted this one.
