Greatest regular season game of all time.
Second greatest game of all time, after SB 49.
defensive masterpiece?

Both NFL and NBA trending to higher scores
Even considering the softer penalties, the offensive schemes in this league are so advanced, at this point..you can't afford to run vanilla anymore when you see the Rams, Chiefs and Saints..
It'll be interesting to see if any young coaches are able to innovate on the defensive side..
This one stands there with Oklahoma vs Boise State, as the greatest game I've seen.
I wonder at this point if it's not better to be super agressive and try to go for defensive homeruns like the Rams did in this game. You are going to get scored on anyways, might as well go for broke and get 2 or 3 plays that swing the game in your favour.
The Rams will take a bye then Detroit on the road, then .....The Bears in Chicago.
By the time that Dec 23 game in Seattle comes up the Chiefs might be setting players,
Mahomes with 4 costly turnovers.
edit: 5 total turnovers.
Arena football league nfl is now
Patrick Mahomes 478 yards, 71.9 comp %, 117.7 rating and 6td's. And this is his season as a starter, amazing.
UT/USC for the championship
If Bush hadn't got stupid with that lateral, USC wins that game. Yep, another great game.
Yeah that might've tilted the game in their favor had he not tried to get cute with it.. but that & many other plays made by both teams made the game live up to the hype - from start to finish
Looks like the NFL has fiiiiiiiiiinally caught up with college football.
has there ever been another QB in NFL history to throw 6 TDs and 3 INTs in a single game?
Dude, the guy played great for a QB with his lack of NFL experience. , he looks 18.
The next to last drive is why he's not one of the GOATs. Even Russell Wilson gets in FG range there with all that time and timeouts. Terrible decision making, particularly on the next to last possession. The last one was just desperation and the first INT was sheer bad luck.
"Even" Russell Wilson? Who has thrown more 4TH Q TD's in a season, try.....nobody. He is the NFL record holder.
What we do is compare Mahomes to what others did with his experience, who ever did it better?
That should be the blueprint right now, we're in an offensive time, defense is just complimentary..
Defenses should be focused on field position and generating turnovers, bend don't break, etc..the 2009 Saints are a good model for what today's defenses should be, their overall metrics were average/below average but they created a ton of turnovers for their offense..
"SAN DIEGO Peyton Manning set a franchise record by throwing six interceptions, yet still had the Indianapolis Colts in position to win in the closing minutes.

Oh you said 6 tds
tbh I think that's what the Big XII is turning into now. Obviously they've been producing video game numbers on offense for a few years now, but I'm starting to see more pick sixes/gamble plays on defense as well. Don't know if it's just me, or if the league as a whole is adopting a " it, we're gonna give up 40 anyway let's just try to generate defensive home runs" mentality.
I think Mahomes was having flashbacks of playing with the Texas Tech Browns in which defense did not exist. Probably felt too much pressure to keep scoring. He really is Brett Favre in terms of being a fearless gunslinger, but the key like you said is will he maintain poise in crunchtime, go through his reads, etc or will he be a loose cannon and start chucking up home run balls when the easy play is right in front of him
Nope, tbh the Redksins 72-41 win over the Giants is still the gold standard in terms of highest total pts and most points by one team. Here's a list for ya
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...ring_NFL_games
The funniest part of this list is the second highest scoring game in NFL history was......Browns/Bengals in 2004
Oh, and guess who shows up again as the ninth highest scoring game in NFL history.....Browns/Bengals in 2007
the ?
No problem with the offense in this game. I like college football. I don't like the rule changes that grants "roughing the passer" if you so much as sneeze on the QB, ticky tack P.I. calls that often decide games, and refs deciding when to call holding or not (there's holding on every play, but the refs sometimes blow the whistle, sometimes not). Goodellball is watchable. NBA basketball is indeed broken garbage, though, and not much more respectable as a sport than povertyball these days. But I understand their motives. To keep your types engaged on twitter."I blame the NFL commissioner for this joke of a game. The league is broken. Who can enjoy this mockery? Long live the old times
/ midnightpulp rant
Don't have Twitter, tbh.
You demonstrate that mindset. "What's new is good!" Not all change is good. NBA didn't need change. The sport was fine, even in the low scoring grit and grind era. But they know they can't market around bigs and defense, so the twitterball abomination was born.
