**OFFICIAL Conference Championship Thread

That was an all-time bad call, but hopefully Saints fans don’t act like huge pussies and whine about it for 20 years like Raiders fans

DP has been purposely avoiding this thread, tbh.

Maybe the Golden State Chiefs will double or even triple their offensive output in this half.

[Clipper Nation]

Another incredible play by Mahomes. How will they screw this up?

[Robz4000]

Damn, game-changing throw by Mahomes. Gonna be wasted if they can't get in the end zone though.

[Will Hunting]

Well, that was quick.

[Robz4000]

Welp, no worries there. New England needs to respond with a TD or the Chiefs are in business.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Nvm, my stream is behind

[Will Hunting]

Patriots did the right thing on 3rd down by making Mahomes throw the low probability pass, their pass rush is just so ing bad if they’re not bringing a blitz.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Not aimed at any Saints fans tbh

Oh, tuck rule, I get it. The pissy thing about that game was the Raiders never got another chance to possess because ty old OT rules where the coin toss winner just needed a FG to win. The Saints actually had a chance and got a gift call on their drive and still ended up ing it up with the pick. Absolutely no excuses for the Saints today.

Them being able to slow the game back down is almost as important as them scoring another TD. If they score a quick, 2-4 play touchdown it turns the game into a shootout that they don’t have the offense to win, it needs to turn back into a ball control slugfest.

I agree 100%, and 7 out of 10 times Gilmore of all DBs will knock that down. It's something I think teams should seriously consider doing against Brady as well.

ty ing Burkhead almost killing another drive

Chiefs got lucky on that Mahomes pass. Wanna see him do it again before I'd worry about a shootout.

[Robz4000]

Patriots in trouble now.

[Barfunk]

Mahomes is probably the most talented quarterback of all time, no?

[Robz4000]

Chiefs re ed special teams

[DAF86]

Hill is such a ing dumbass

[Clipper Nation]

Wow, just pure re ation by the Chiefs there.

[resistanze]

Such low IQ plays. Just go down

[Spurtacular]

Half the distance vs 10 or 15 yard penalty (whatever it is) is not that big a difference though.

[Millennial_Messiah]

so probably a punt coming from the Chiefs from their endzone considering where they are on the field. Patriots get the ball back up 14-7 around midfield only the Patriots can gain field position with a punt

[Will Hunting]

Wow, just pure re ation by the Chiefs there.

Does it really matter though, this drive will come down to Mahomes completing a long ass pass that the Patriots give to him, in this matchup I’m not sure if the Chiefs field position matters much.

Still a Reid-coached team, they'll find a way to blow it.

[Will Hunting]

I see the Chiefs have finally discovered the strategy of putting Kyle Van Noy in a position where he has to make a tackle in the open field.

[DAF86]

Just throw the damn ball.
