If Andy had just let them score a touchdown, they'd be down 2 scores with 3 timeouts and about 5 minutes left.

Instead, they have no timeouts, 2:27 left, and they are down by...2 scores.
Andy is the best. It’s a shame they don’t have a stud running back anymore as one of my favorite things was the postgame reports where he would say he has no idea why they didn’t get the ball to Kareem Hunt more often.

This is like watching that Lakers-Kings game 7 right now. I don't know what this is.

KC should be spiking the ball after every first down in the field of play. The extra 10 seconds they are going to waste getting a play in from the sideline and getting it off, is not fucking worth it. I say this year in and year out. And 60% of the time, they run the play, they throw an incompletion, at best. At worst, they rush the play, take a sack, turn it over, etc.

I don't understand why coaches don't understand this. Spike it. If you need 4 downs to make a first down, you're losing anyway.

18 accepted penalties (11 on KC, 7 on Indy).

Exhibit A. Just run up there and spike it for crying out loud. Why take an extra 15 seconds to throw an incompletion?

Pass was uncatchable, so the call turns on whether the contact occurred before or after the ball was thrown.

Watch them review this and add a flag, despite compete uncatchability.

The face of the NFL just made a stupid ass play.

I felt like an asshole for thinking, unlucky injury there.

Like, because it stopped the clock. Not because it’s an injured person.
