That was the first thing I saw. Obvious leading with the helmet. Also, the lamest rule in sports to gift the opponent with a touchback for not recovering a fumble. Every throw out of the endzone should be a touchback as well.
Agree on both fronts. It was a penalty and the rule is dumb regardless.

That said Cleveland was never going to win this game. They’re getting dominated

The fumble out of the endzone is one of the dumbest rules in sports. No reason for a change in possession.
Not all that counts can be counted. Not all that can be counted counts.

Are you sure about that? would be a one score game right now with Mahomes likely done. Also, less likely KC gets a FG before half if the correct call was made.

I said that before Mahomes was out. Now the play looms larger.

The offense got brought up a lot this summer and was discussed adnasuem by a variety of folks on here and talking heads. Its a very simple offense (as in high school level simple) and doesn't utilize anything outside the numbers in the passing game. Now the question you have to ask yourself is if this is because Greg Roman doesn't know how to build a better offense, or does Lamar have some serious deficiencies that they have to hide?

We'll never know what would have happened if the goal line call was done correct, but sucks that the Browns don't get to find out and the Chiefs get to skate by on a bleep call. Way to go zebras.

Browns have only themselves to blame in the end, they had chances to stop Henne. The no penalty call hurts but they still could have taken this game.

Browns just went up to my 4th hated team

Hope that poverty franchise never touches the playoffs again

When your only shot at winning is knocking out the other team's QB, you do that and still get smacked by running Chad Henne :)

Before the game I was happy for them and thought I'd root for them if they won. Never again

Lmao the offense is designed specifically for Lamar, if it’s a simple high school offense then there’s probably a good reason

The Mahomes injury play changed everything

Still like Stefanski, Chubb, Baker and a few other players

If not for that play I'd have felt bad for them for the no call helmet to helmet

Now though? This win felt almost as satisfying as the Super Bowl--especially seeing Mack Wilson in the postgame

That Mahomes play didn't look like it'd cause a concussion. No helmet to helmet, no blow to the head. The defender's hand/arm end up around and behind/under the back of the helmet and there was a pulling motion.

Not a dirty play.
League #1- 14 tm ppr, 1Q, 2R, 3W, 1T, 1 R/W/T, 1K

League #3- 12 tm PPR, 1Q, 0R (yes, ZERO RB) 3W, 1T, 2 R/W/T flex, 1 Def

Maybe I am just really drunk but watching that play again it wasn't really that dirty. My bad. I'm stupid

Gg Browns. They'll be back

If Mahomes is out next week is playing with house money though
