Look. As a rabid Chiefs fan, I believe I was declared medically dead at least once during this game. Was it the best game I’ve seen? Probably. How many times do you see three lead changes in the last 2 minutes of the game? It was the first time my eyes had seen it. So this game was undeniably a classic. Even still. I’m here to tell you that it could have been better. Just like the lead changes during the two minute drill, I have three specific moments/scenarios that, had they happened, would have would have been the cherry on the top of an adrenaline shot of a game.

What if the Bills had moved Stefon Diggs to Safety?

In most scenarios, a fan running on the field would have been the most talked about event at the end of the game. Since network TV doesn’t show it, these types of events are constantly blown out of proportion after the game. But with Mahomes and Allen playing Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed duking it out, Diggs’ tackle is getting lost in the shuffle. His WR stat line of 3 receptions for 7 yards didn’t add anything to the Bills offensive output. Why not try him at safety? He had, bar none, the biggest hit of the game. He might be the second best defender in the family, behind Aaiden, known defender of his favorite QB Patrick Mahomes.

What if Willie Gay Jr. actually made the biggest hit of the game?

What if Stefon Diggs’ hit wasn’t the biggest hit of the game? What if that prize had been awarded to Willie Gay Jr.? Why does this even matter? Because then I would have gotten to fire off the low hanging fruit tweet of “Man. Willie Gay just beat [INSERT BILLS PLAYER NAME HERE] like he was a Dyson.” I KNOW I’m not the only guy who preloaded that tweet into my drafts prior to the start of the game. Thanks for depriving me of that glory, Willie.

What if we got to see the Cheetah Celly?

PATRICK. WHY? You let your brother repeatedly do the same dance over and over again (even on a memorial), but you stop the guy who consistently does backflips as celebrations from doing a self proclaimed “crazy touchdown celebration”? I need this. I need to see what Tyreek had planned. I feel robbed. Release the Cheetah Cut.

Final Thoughts

I know it sounds crazy to ask for more like I’m Kylo Ren from a game that saw my heart rate maintain a 94-120 BPM through the last hour of the game. But do you know who else is crazy. KYLO REN. Never settle. Always ask for more, right? Isn’t that the American Way? Who am I kidding. This game was perfect, outside of the silly overtime rules, of course. But I’ll leave that for Skip and Shannon to yell and scream about.

A.D.’s Crown Of The Week Goes To A Cheetah https://korkedbats.com/a-d-s-crown-of-the-week-goes-to-a-cheetah/ https://korkedbats.com/a-d-s-crown-of-the-week-goes-to-a-cheetah/#respond Fri, 04 Dec 2020 02:40:13 +0000 http://korkedbats.flywheelsites.com/?p=26298 Each week, AD hands out a crown to the best performer of the Sunday slate of football. This week, I think we all know who it goes to: Tyreek Hill.

While Week 12 seemed to last longer than the pandemic (tasteless joke) (also: geez another covid joke), it was very clear to me who my Week 12 Crown was going to even before the Steelers and Ravens faced off in the always rare Wednesday Afternoon game. In fact, my Crown of the Week was decided after just 1 quarter of play on Sunday. Actually, this was probably one of the most obvious Crowns given this year. The one they call “Cheetah,” aka Tyreek Hill, had himself an unbelievable Week 12 performance. I’m sure you heard.

Hill straight up embarrassed the Bucs secondary Sunday. There’s really no other way to put it. Like pants them in front of the entire school cafeteria embarrassment. The Cheetah eclipsed 200 yards in just the 1st quarter WHILE ALSO adding two unreal tuddy’s. In. Just. The. And I cannot stress this enough: 1st. Quarter.

My reaction after the 1st quarter

Cheetah wasn’t done just yet. In total, Tyreek grabbed 13 passes from Patty Mahomes for 269 (ha, niceeeeee) yards and 3 tuddy’s. Wow. Just wow. The type of game that had fantasy owners everywhere changing their pants (including myself who went up against former Crown winner, King Henry.)

Tyreek literally did a backflip into the end zone. You almost have to feel bad for the Bucs secondary at that point.

269 (????) yards is a lot of yards and you may be wondering: is that some sort of record? While many of us were hoping to witness history on Sunday, unfortunately 269 (extremely nice) yards was not quite the record for most yards in a game. That record belongs to none other than Flipper Anderson. Yeah that’s right, a guy named Flipper not only holds the record for most receiving yards in a game but also the record for weirdest name. He racked up 336 yards one time. Tyreek Hill, however, is just the second player since the year 2000 to have 200 or more receiving yards and two touchdowns in a single quarter. Tip of the hat, Mr. Hill (a cheetah print hat, of course).

But the real salt in the Bucs wound was when Tyreek went full Shannon Sharpe.

For the first time since The Beatles were still recording new music, the Kansas City Chiefs are Super Bowl champions.

Like most teams who play Kyle Shanahan in the Super Bowl, the Chiefs put together a late come-from-behind victory, and it all stemmed from this 44-yard throw and catch from Patrick Mahomes to Tyreek Hill.

We broke down the play in detail. Enjoy.
