31st Ranked Defense.
I said earlier in the year a team that has a really bad defense will most likely not win. I was specifically referring to the Chiefs, but I mean that for any team because everything is stacked against them.

Do you think that no games have been fixed before?
I don’t really care. I just know that one missed call doesn’t result in a “fixed game”. The saints had numerous opportunities to win the game after that. And that was the only blatant missed call that you could argue for a “fix”. One non call does not equal a rigged game.

They should change the OT rules in the playoffs so that they're more like college and even if a team gets a TD first, the other team should get a chance to match it. Everyone and their mom knew that the Pats were going to win that game as soon as they won the coin toss because the Chiefs' defense is complete ass.

@Tank Overtime coin toss winner winning %:
NFL: 52.7%
CFB: 54.9%
It might be true for a specific game that winning the coin toss is equal to winning the game, but overall it's pretty fair.

Well then the Chiefs aren't good enough.

They weren't, but it doesn't change the fact that many fans, myself included, would have liked to see them at least get a chance to match the Pats' score.
I don't think the OT rules need to change at all tbh. The Rams were able to force a turnover in OT which basically enabled them to set up the GW FG. If Dee Ford doesn't line up offside or they get a stop in any of the THREE 3rd and 10s, Mahomes gets a chance to be the savior.

I personally don't think OT rules need to change just because a defense doesn't get the job done.

With the way that offenses are nowadays, I think both teams deserve a shot with the football because it's getting harder than ever to actually stop a team from scoring (that's even before you factor in the myriad of calls that can/will go against a defense throughout the course of a game). I don't think the current OT rules are bad or anything (they're certainly better than what we had before with only needing a FG to win the game outright), but I still think they could be improved upon.
