The Chiefs needed 14 yards to get in position for a 60-yard field goal. Instead, they got 25,. Unreal.

13 seconds, and in FG range.  That is sick.  What a freaking game this is.

13 seconds

Popular opinion will always remember this game as "great QB play". Is it really complete defensive ineptitude?

[mdrunning]

Just a complete failure at the end by Buffalo's defense.

 

The coin flip is critical here, considering that neither defense has shown any ability to make a stop in the late going.

I think this one has to pass the Mile High Miracle at this point for the best playoff game I've ever watched.

There is no defense anymore. Ill just say this. In a league where this can happen you still have QBs uber protected, and questionable PI called, and unintentional helmet to helmets called. When is enough enough when it comes to the offense having the advantage

I'm not even 100% sure this could've even been pulled off in Madden on Rookie.

Sure, sure.

 

At the same time, are you not entertained?

There are no words for this game.  I cannot believe anyone could have a comeback with only 13 seconds left.  What an unbelievable win for KC.  What a disappointment for Buffalo.  What do you have do?  Score with 1 second left.  Unreal.

If Eric Bieniemy isn’t a head coach next season is a damn disgrace. Patrick Mahomes is a true talent. But to constantly have plays drawn up where someone is wide the hell open every time, it’s genius level stuff that makes Mahomes job that much easier.

That shouldnt happen. The product doesnt entertain me that much. And I know that sounds crazy coming from someone who has been quite active in this thread the last 4 hours or so but its how I feel. I didnt watch any of the games last week or yesterday and I have no clue how much Ill watch the rest of the way. I enjoy Lamar and what he brings but thats pretty much my only excitement from football.

Bad decision not to squib the kick with 13 ticks.  They may have been able to get it inside the 25 with only 8 nor 9 seconds.

Josh Allen: Nine Td passes in two postseason games and he won't even make it to the championship game.

 

Didn't Buffalo have the NFL's top-ranked defense this year? Shows how useful that distinction is. 

 

I wonder how many times the writers covering this game had to re-write their leads.

[DuffMan]

Oof brutal loss for the Bills. Would have been nice to seen them advanced. Shame the way that game ended and the Bills don't even get a chance in OT with the ball

[cprenegade]

You do have to wonder why the Bills did not squib kick after they scored to take the lead with only 13 seconds left.  They could have forced KC to take at least a few seconds off the clock.

I agree with everything you wrote but this wasn’t that.  Guys kept making plays.

Put my quote about the kick up without seeing yours.  You are absolutely right.  Kicking it out of the end zone gave KC two plays to work with.  If they force a return, maybe only one and if not in FG range, a hail mary.  Definite failure on the special teams coaches.

The Chiefs are the first team to host the AFC Championship four years in a row.

Bills fans may feel worse than we did in the Lee Evans game.
