In all seriousness, I think that Kansas City had the misfortune to have their left tackle go out in the AFC Championship game - had he gone out earlier in the year, maybe the makeshift line adjusts better. But I am not sure that would have changed the outcome since Kansas City just seemed lost out there - dropped passes, blown coverage, stupid penalties, no blocking, a distracted coach (given what problems Andy Reid had with his sons' drug and legal problems as coach of the Eagles, I have to wonder why he possibly thought making his son an assistant coach was a good idea - maybe he thought it would keep him clean - obviously that failed) - it turned into a complete dog of a game and eventually I just stopped watching.
Tampa was playing really well - but I am not sure that Kansas City would have beat anyone last night.
I think it was more:
A) Britt Reid
B) Andy Reid, because of Britt Reid, not taking advantage of his mystical "two weeks to prepare" and coming up with a better protection scheme ... seriously, it's great that Kelce had an empty 10 catches for 133 yards, but if the O-line is struggling that bad, maybe keep him close to help block?
C) Honey Badger riling up Tom Brady ... sorry, you just don't do that to the apex predators like Brady, Jordan and Kobe ... you just don't.
Anyway, I'm already over their pathetic performance and am wishing and hoping for the best for those two innocent kids that were involved in that accident.
