You're absolutely right, but I just thought they'd play to put the ball in play short and try to tackle.
I suppose that's essentially what they did and Maulet just got beat. Which sucks because he played pretty well all season and it was MVS.

I cant imagine a world where you get PI throwing into triple coverage. It is like throwing a hail mary where there there is always PI but it will never be called unless it is far more direct than what happened there.

the fumble killed us, I really think we win otherwise

I can if it’s the chiefs
I posted still frame shots of the throw and it was very blatant PI.
I said it before, but 11 players could have been defending Likely and you still need to call that because it wasn't an iffy call- it was blatant.

Not too much more to offer than what others have said, but here's my notes:
1. Obviously the offense, and including Lamar, weren't anywhere near good enough to win this game.
2. Not sure why we abandoned the run game, but it didn't work.
3. In a game where Lamar threw it 37 times, Bateman had 2 yards on 3 targets.
4. Kyle Hamilton was the best player on the field for both teams.
5. Zay Flowers has a lot of growing up to do.
6. Easily one of the worst decisions, and throws, of Lamar's career.
We turned the ball over, they didn't. They controlled both lines of scrimmage, and we didn't. They made plays in critical spots, and we didn't. They're going to the SB, and we're not.

by this logic, next playoff run we're losing in the superbowl
and we'll have to wait for the playoff run after that for a glory year
it's always gonna feel different when you're the underdog
with lamar it's so rare that we'll ever be an underdog because we're so dominant in the regular season

Can't make that call. Literally football becomes unwatchable if they're consistently calling PI there. It's not that far off from a hail mary. Defenses already are beyond the 8 ball so badly these days. To throw a flag in that spot is a travesty.
tbh i think any growing up he had to do is probably happening right now
the much more egregious one was the lack of a hold/DPI on the likely one on the 3rd and 5 where we kicked the FG
Yep, first one since 2011 I won’t watch. I just don’t care, lions would have been fun to root for but I really don’t care to see either team win and I can’t root for either. Still would maybe prefer a sf win? I hate kelce a lot now
Yeah, football becomes unwatchable if we call clear and obvious flags. Good thought.

I was actually thinking that last night. Lamar is on a track to get one more step each time he participates in the Playoffs, so we have to wait thru, at least two more defeats before a Super Bowl win.
Listen, last time when we lost some blamed the coaching and others said the players weren't showing up. All I know about these kinds of defeats is that they are SUPER similar. We won the 2012 Super Bowl because we got rid of something that was stalling in Cam Cameron and had tremendous veteran leadership with a new perspective on OFF from Jim Caldwell at just the right, last nick, of time. Since then there has been no real long standing vet leadership and a coaching carousel, other than HC, that rivals some of the worst teams. Sure, you could argue that our coaches' performance allowed them to leave for opportunity, but the point is there is a lack of continuity over years.
But if one or both of the coordinators go, I know it's not going to happen, but JH needs to go too. Just as we needed a fresh look from Brian Billick, we now need a fresh look from John Harbaugh.
1 more defeat technically
would win the AFC championship and then lose the superbowl
then would win the superbowl
Agreeded, a lot of bad calls but I’m not mad about that. You expect to be bailed out against the chiefs under throwing in tripple? That’s stupid af, espically knowing how the game was getting called. You sail that ball to the back of the end zone and if likely makes a play cool if not oh well. You simply can’t make a throw like that in the playoffs and expect to win

Yup. There's clear and obvious offensive holding on at least 50% of pass plays. I could show you illegal contact by defensive backs and linebackers on nearly every route run.
We throw flags on those, and it's a wrap.
You're, right sideline coverage. It's always that blatant and obvious.

You're using the word blatant incorrectly. Per usual.
O I forgot, Likely threw his hand up. Means he's open. Saw four kids do that simultaneously in a flag football game just the other day. All of them were more open than Likely was. And it was still intercepted.
Whatever you say, sideline coverage.
I'd call being tackled blatant, but I'm not going to contest the great sideline coverage.
