2023 Week 1 NFL Gamethread

[Remagellan]

They should punt it with three TOs.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Surprising the refs are calling stuff they didn't now, really.

 

[shawnrbu]

False start lol

 

[Ale Xander]

If play takes 8 seconds or less they’re still
Ok

 

[cornwalls@6]

Oh, man that would’ve been a great pick.

 

[ngruz25]

Toney and Skyy Moore have a combined one yard between the two of them. Woof.

 

[Ale Xander]

Doofus

 

[Garshaparra]

Point of emphasis hahaha

 

[DeadlySplitter]

And the 2 minute warning was burned on that play.

 

[jcd0805]

Lololol about freaking time

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

The false start!! Lol

 

[Remagellan]

Three TOs and the two minute warning.

 

[McBride11]

NOW they call Taylor. Lol

 

[Van Everyman]

Moore should’ve had that

 

[luckiestman]

2 minute and 3 TOs. Only need a fg. This is weird

 

[Mystic Merlin]

What the fuck is happening

 

[rodderick]

This game is kinda nuts.

 

[scott bankheadcase]

Honestly that was a great play and Moore should have had the first down.

 

[Dollar]

How obviously can they let the Lions score on the first play?

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Should we talk about Mahomes threw it behind him?

If the KC media market were anything like Boston their Felger would be screaming that Mahomes is sending a message to management.

 

[Average Game James]

Lions still have enough time to mess this up...

 

[Ale Xander]

Are you kidding me?

So dumb

Burned the 2MW

 

[Sandwich Pick]

Throwing the ball away would have been better than that. At least they would have had the 2 minute warning.

 

[cornwalls@6]

Holy Shit!! No flags??

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

4th and 25 with 3 TOs, huh interesting call there.

 

[Marciano490]

These play calls are like when I’d play Madden. 4th and 25. Sure. Why not.

 

[canderson]

I’d seriously consider letting Detroit score on the first play and gamble you can convert a 2 pt conversion to force OT

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Truly Julian Edelman redux

 

[8slim]

2 of Mahomes throws on that series were awful. Weird that CC didn’t mention it.

 

[Awesome Fossum]

And the 2 minute warning was burned on that play.

Brutal decision making.

 

[cshea]

Don’t get that. Either way the Chiefs need a 3 and out except now they may need a TD if they get it because the Lions are in FG range.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Are you kidding me?

So dumb

Burned the 2MW

Old school Andy creeping in there.

 

[mauf]

How obviously can they let the Lions score on the first play?

Nah. 3 running plays, 3 timeouts, and a FGA that will likely be made, but isn’t a gimme.

Of course, the Lions have a good O-line and might get 10 yards.

 

[Mooch]

This Chiefs team is wildly overrated. They will have to make a trade for a real WR at some point.

 

[rodderick]

Old school Andy creeping in there.

That was all on Mahomes.

 

[Dollar]

But seriously... am I crazy for just letting Detroit score a TD immediately here? If you play defense, maybe you stop them at 1:30 and lose all your timeouts... or the Lions get a first down and you get the ball back with 30 seconds and no timeouts... down 4 either way.

Let them score now and go down 8, with 2 minutes and 3 timeouts.

 

[luckiestman]

Lions go for 2 right?

 

[Pandemonium67]

Oh, man that would’ve been a great pick.

Gave me Asante flashback.

 

[mauf]

Reid doesn’t trust his D. And I’m not sure he should. Detroit’s O-line is excellent.

 

[Remagellan]

How obviously can they let the Lions score on the first play?

That might be their best option.

 

[Shelterdog]

2 of Mahomes throws on that series were awful. Weird that CC didn’t mention it.

When you say weird it almost makes me think you're being sarcastic.

 

[Ale Xander]

These play calls are like when I’d play Madden. 4th and 25. Sure. Why not.

 

[Oil Can Dan]

Some seriously bananas decisions being made here…

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Truly Julian Edelman redux

I’m sad we didn’t draft Pickens but at least the guy KC took around the same spot seems like nothing to write home about either.

The answer is ‘yes.’

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

That Ford 100% effort thing is kind of hilarious.

 

[cornwalls@6]

Gave me Asante flashback.

Too soon.

 

[Dollar]

The answer is ‘yes.’

I mean... Detroit gets five more yards here and the game is over. Why not put Mahomes on the field down 8?

 

[Ale Xander]

Thornton for Mahomes, I'm game.

 

[canderson]

Lions go for 2 right?

I’d doubt it - but hell who knows

 

[rodderick]

Dan Campbell is going to be faced with 4th and 1 to win the game, isn't he?
