    They do need it. Buffalo isn't losing to NE. So KC will play their starters to keep the one seed in tact.

    We had it all in front of us, win the game, win the division, it's that simple - we failed. Now the season starts to have the all-too familair taint of the on the road one and done playoff season.

    A veteran, potential HOF vet QB cannot blow this game in this manner. But he did.

    I forgave Philly, we had next to no shot there, wasn't even pissed off at all - this game? Nope, no chance.

    We didn't lose because we got injuries prior to the game, or even during it, we lost because we lost the big "swing situations" - the fumble, and the pick six.

    they need to win 1 of the final 2, KC does. For that #1 Seed, assuming Buff will win out.....

    Wilson two turnovers killed them but missing three starters in the secondary hurt them too.

    No doubt. And missing a DL starter.

    I'm disappointed in how it worked out, but Russ put it on the line to try to score. It's hard to stay mad at that.

    Fact still remains this team is much better than last years team. This is a real offense with a real QB and a real OC.

    Better is better. Russel Wilson is a legitimate NFL QB. Arthur Smith is a legitimate NFL OC. Just because the previous duo was terrible doesn't change that.

    What is a much more interesting conversation is how this year's version clinched a playoff spot with 5 weeks remaining. How this is a huge improvement over entering the final week needing to win AND have at least 1 other team lose just to make the playoffs. An apples to apples comparison shows one of these things is better than the other.

    True but a round 1 loss is a round 1 loss.
