" This one Hurts" , this was according to head coach Cherry today. In what was labeled as a battle of the power Defenses, it was a 2pt conversion that never was that chnage this game.
With the ability to go for a 2-pt conversion to keep the game a full TD ahead leading into the 4th- which at that point wasnt needed, cheifs were up, but only 6-, cherry deciced to play it safe with an extra point. " That move may have killed us" , per O coordinator Trent Green.
The Cheifs should've kicked a game tieing filed goal durring their late game surge , thanks in part to Marcel Lewis huge 30 yard catch. " That kick should've propelled us into OT,insteaded we had to go for it on 4th and goal" According to injured starting TE Kelece. " But im okay with Coaches conviction in his decesion."
Rumors are swirlling thought, as this is their heavest part of the season, Pathers, Falcons, and the always savy Browns before the by week.
" We need to weather this trio of games and look to gain some momentum going into the bye week" this was while Turner Quinn is a batling from a heavy brised hand that kocked him out of the game. Albeit the same hand that was injured during the preseason.
" Glad we have drew, hes the best I've ever seen at being prepared " Turner Contiuned " With out him I dont know where we would be , hes helped keep us togetther and teach that as things get harder so must we." Wise words that Tuenr should heed to, hes been trying to pull himself together, but many think his small frame may not beable to handle the long haul of an NFL season, time will tell if Maybe, just maybe, KC should've opted for Pittsburgs big guy instead.
Blantly quick during post game interviews was Star Running back Charles, who seemed very dissapointed in his teams performance, but always points to himself as a reason for a loss. " I feel this one is on me, I should've socred at least 1 TD today, thats all that we needed to get the W. A player of my skill should have no excuses for throwing up a goose egg."
Overall, the feeling in the locekr room is still upbeat, they feel that when they do make the playoffs they'll be ready for whats to come, as the blistering Raiders have a very week scedule this year which is why most feel that they are posers, at this point.
But you cant sit here and play that game , one must realize they came in and routed the chiefs their first go around , week 11 will be pivotal as thats the next time they will meet up and more than likey set the tone for the playoff picture out west between these two.
Alot can happen between now and then, my thoughts are the riaders will ake the playoffs as the division leader with the chiefs battling for a wildcard spot with the Begals , Pats , and Colts. More than likey, these thoughts will be continued....
Happy football watching this week and we'll see you next week against the SB champ, Falcons!
