Black Friday Game

Molmes looks like shit again. Everything comes out of his hand wobbly, and his accuracy is nothing close to what it used to be.

I was gonna ask if people would trade Goff for Mahomes, as Mahomes has been crowned the GOAT, but I think Goff is a much better QB. Smarter and more accurate

Mahomes misses a lot of wide open guys. He gets recognition for the little ball flips he does and his escapability. Otherwise he’s pretty ordinary imo.

Mahomes has a very strong arm and can make unreal throws. However, he is as guilty of anyone as throwing the ball into danger too often. He also is a whiny bitch on the field.

Mahomes is at his best when the play breaks down. He IS a great improvisor. What makes him great (see, I can say it) is he normally stays on schedule, but then can change things when the play is defended properly.

The difference between why Mahomes is great, and why Caleb will never be, is Caleb wants to make EVERY play an improvisation. He can’t follow a script. He can’t read a defense and know how to attack it. He wants to play every down like its a scramble drill and throw it up for grabs. When it’s every play, it makes it easy to defend. You expect it. It’s impossible to defend what you don’t expect.

He’s always done that.

I’ve taken heat in the past for calling him overrated.

I think he’s a good QB but he’s not the Superman some claim him to be. He’s amazing off platform and he can beat you many ways but he’s also the product of a great system. I just don’t think he would be as good if he was anywhere else.

Did anyone see the play where he started to run upfield…
then abruptly slid as players closed in on him?

There was some light contact as he went down because Crosby and another D-line player were already preparing to lunge at him.

The crowd cried like whiny crybabies…
and the Chiefs O-line acted like he was assaulted.

I’m so sick of the whining from the Chiefs…. :face_vomiting::roll_eyes::triumph:

Anyone gonna bring up how the Chiefs got screwed on the ten-second runoff because the refs made a mistake? Or will that fade away because it doesn’t fit with the narrative?

I don’t like the Chiefs either, but the conspiracy theories are out of hand.

This game is just proof again that inter-division games are really tough, no matter the records

Sorry, you mean they got screwed because they had the rules called against them? I think all of the Lions can remember a certain game against the Falcons that we lost because of that same 10 second run off rule.

The rule itself is stupid, but the Chiefs didn’t have any timeouts. Had he made the catch, they run to the line and try for the spike, its roughly 10 seconds anyways. That’s why they have the rule in place.

They got screwed because the refs missed the call and had to stop the clock to review it, causing a ten second runoff that they couldn’t stop.

The 10 second runoff didn’t screw the Chiefs out of anything.
They would have struggled to get lined up and spike the ball in 10 seconds. :man_shrugging:

Maybe. But the fact remains they were punished for a mistake the refs made. It’s the same thing that happened to us on the Golden Tate TD against Atlanta that got called back. Nothing we did wrong, but the screw up by the refs cost us.

They’re even talking about it right now on the broadcast lol.

Here the difference
Chiefs would have taken 10 secs to run up and clock it so whether they stop the ply or not they still get to spike it

With the st brown play lions were never given the chance because the ruling was a TD and clock stopped
Then they change ruling on filed and say game over
Lions never had the chance to spike it

The point is, you can’t say someone got screwed because the rules were applied to them. Complain the officials missed a catch? Uhhh, insert any and all NFL officiating comments for literally every week of every game. Having the rules called is not getting screwed.

I think it is a huge leap to say they were punished…
when there is zero chance they get lined up and kill the clock with more than 4 seconds left.

Mecole Hardman (still running downfield at the 18 yard line) was 23 yards past the LOS (41 yard line) with 13 seconds left…
and he appeared to be at the 15-yard line as the camera angle changed at 12 seconds….
plus all 5 O-line players were over 10 yards from the LOS…
and Gray was still on the turf as the clock hit 12 seconds.

That means all of those players had to get in position and set within 6 seconds to MATCH the same time left on clock by the time they stayed set for a second and spiked it.

They still had receivers downfield w 13 seconds left. While I think they would have been able to clocknit, itnwoukd have been close.

NOT running 10 off gives them the ball at the spot, with the team lined up to snap, with 13 seconds, which would have been totally acrewing the Raiders, as they coukd have run an out throw easily.

The review they said was from the booth, not the field refs, so the field refs were held hostage there
