Willis putting a lot of steps on his step counter, at least.

It's like Willis is playing his own private game, which is hold the ball as long as you can, going backwards if possible. Throwing it away is cheating.

Really dumb play by KC to go on fourth down. Should have kicked. That was pretty much the only way they could have ended up with a tie. That was Tennessee’s chance.

Bledsoe's record pass attempts in a game is safe. Mahomes attempted 68 passes tonight, 2 short of Bledsoe's 70 in a 1994 game.

That was stupid given how inept the Titans offense looked. And I usually agree with what are conventionally considered ‘aggressive’ fourth down decisions.

I really don't think people here are taking into account Butker's recent issues. He missed an extra point a 47 yarder tonight, after missing a 39 yarder against SF in their last game. Even a 30 yarder is to be avoided, if there's a reasonable chance of a 4th down conversion.

Collinsworth has been awful
I realized what it is that I dislike about him tonite.. every play is an opportunity to tell a story about the player that just touched the ball or didn't make a play. Not about what's actually happening in the game but about a conversation, or the player's mom, or his forty time or the time Chris and him talked earlier in the week or when he talked to his high school coach about how special he knew he was going to be ..and then there's another play and he's off on another minute of bloviating about that player.. and whoever his partner is left with 20 seconds to describe the play, give down and distance and let Chris tell one of his shit-eating-grin stories until the next play.

I still can't figure out how clown show Kelce takes his helmet off and bowls it across the field without a penalty compared to DJ Moore taking his helmet off out of bounds and getting flagged. And taking a defender's helmet off and having the defender get called for holding. At least when Tyreek and and Hunt were around you could say he was only the third biggest clown on the team.

Absolutely absurd day from the NFL with helmet penalties.

Lazard took his helmet off, no call. Ramsey took his helmet off, no call. Kelce took his helmet off and bowled it. No call.

Really obnoxious considering the call against DJ Moore.

Heard this morning, Doug Pedersen has 3 wins with the Jags.

He's 5th all time in Jaguars history in coaching wins.
