Again, you don't seem to give the Bengals any credit. The Chiefs lost it instead of the Bengals winning it.Yeah.....but it seems like Mahomes is taking all the heat (which he deserves a fair amount as he played poorly down the stretch)....but Reid deserves a fair amount of criticism as he kept calling plays that were not run plays/short throws and let Mahomes "wing it" a good bit.
I don't know how much leeway Mahomes gets to run the offense vs. OC/Reid calling plays. But if the Chiefs run the ball, throw short and play action in 2nd half....Bengals were not going to win that game IMO.
Fact is, The Bengals defense started making plays and the Chiefs offense didn't. I don't understand why folks are having trouble giving the Bengals credit.
Buffalo had a very good defense and they could not stop the Chiefs when it mattered. The Bengals did. Simple as that.
