23 on KC... poor guy must've been dying inside as that fg first hit. Getting burned that many times in one night after your team plays so well.

This was a great game, unlike some of the other prime time games we had this year. Was hoping for a tie at the end. That kick clanking in was a pretty good end to the game too.

As a Chiefs fan... I don't even know how this feels. So many times the Broncos have broken our hearts... it's amazing to see it go the other way for once

That must have been a super annoying decision for the Broncos to kick that 62 yarder. Basically no chance of hitting it but how could they refuse?

yeah, i feel badly for kubiak, it was a lose-lose situation either way. the division is pretty tight too so maybe a half-game would've been worth it.
if i were him i'd would've just settled for the tie and punted them deep in their own territory so they wouldn't be able to go down to make the game winning fg.

Imo kicking was the correct choice. It's clear that the kicker would have made it from 70 if he hit it just 1% better. Moreover, no sane person has confidence in their defense, at altitude, even in the 4th quarter.

Really good game. Streamed it at school with some fellows. I'm a Patriots fan but being from Kansas City, I had to cheer for them to beat Denver. Houston should have gotten MVP honors for that game. Or Tyreek Hill. He came to play as well

I agree punt is the right call (unless your kicker is Matt Prater). I wonder if Kubiak felt pressured into going for the FG, maybe fearing people will question his will to win if he concedes any possibility of winning the game.

A tie would be very beneficial to Oakland. Maybe he felt like a tie is almost the same as a loss considering the standings entering the game.

I thought McManus is one of the strong legged kickers we have in the NFL lately. Maybe that factored into it as well.

Why didn't they just go for 4&10? Probably a better chance than scoring a 62y field goal?

Either way it was a lose-lose situation. They could have converted and gotten closer, or forced and errant pass and have that picked off and returned. I think it was ultimately a game of field position.

Why not run a play to get 5 yards on third down? I don't remember the exact play they ran but it was beyond a 10 yard throw right? If you are thinking about taking the fg get 4-5 yards and make it that much more managable, or in range for the hard count before you take the timeout. It's bad coaching decisions for sure.

ESPN can't get rid of their MNF play by play guy soon enough. The dude is coma-inducing.

I hope somebody finds these refs houses and takes a giant dump all over their front step, because that's what they did to this game.

This is the right thought, any yards make the FG much easier.

That said, IMO the FG, given that you are in 4th and 10 and 62 yards is the least-bad call.
