14 points I think
I would say the Steelers afc championship the week before was pretty high too
plenty of time, in the 3rd Q, esp when Hilton is probably closer to 50% than 80%.
Gotta give credit to the Colts defense, they have done about as well as could reasonably expected considering they've gotten zero help from the other side of the ball.
Mahomes has played a cerebral game. Not going to make a mistake to let the Colts back in the game.
Then, when the Pats showed they were going to level any Rams player with or near the ball, it was, huh?
I just want to talk about that holding call on Indy for a second, even though it's basically irrelevant now. It's that kind of call that killed me in the Pats game against Pittsburgh. It's not that the call was right or wrong. It's the timing and the inconsistency. If you're going to make that call, you have to make the ones against KC earlier in the game. If you're going to make that call, you can't all of a sudden decide to throw a flag for the first time at the biggest possible moment for Indy. Just like the Pats, who every time they would get something going, or get into the red zone against Pitt, the flag would come out. Indy finally had a little momentum, a good running play, and bang, the refs just eliminate the drive.
The most disappointing thing about this game is that we won’t get a chance to see Andy Reid’s professional clock management.
Why is Al ballwashing KC's D? Indy has failed to execute and had poor playcalling, as opposed to the Chiefs actually looking as impressive as they're being hyped on that front.
I wonder if Luck’s shoulder cannot handle the cold. He looks absolutely terrible. KC’s defense didn’t instantly become good.
They were going to make sure they avoided that nightmare scenario of an AFC Championship Game at the StubHub Center.
The call was all kinds of wrong, end of story. NFL really should be held accountable for that call. Probably has minimal impact on the outcome but that call simply can't be made in any game at any time.
Luck has thrown a ton of balls this year and hasn’t had a week off since October. Basically playing a do or die game each of the last two months as they started 1-5. That may also be a factor.
Indy needs to get into the end zone before anything can be considered ‘looming’ except vacation
They could give Andrew Luck 10 quarters and he wouldn't put 24 on the board today.
Followed by the "2018 AFC Wild Card Weekend Co-Champions" banner-raising ceremony.
Yep.
KC has talent at DL, but not more than Houston by any means.
Their offense laid an egg today, including this line.
