I believe that the Offense and Special Teams lost this game, not the Defense. Looker fumbled the punt return; Bulger running like Frankenstein fumbled the ball; and finally Stephen Jackson fumbled the ball.... all turnovers placed on the Defense to save. Oh, and don't forget the 2 consecutive False Starts by Barron while the team was 2nd & 1.

Slow play calling by Coach is killing us. Good hustle by Jackson after the fumble-turnover, but the lack of hurry-up kills me. Doesn't Coach know by now that it's a smart thing to mix in a few screen plays to counter that Blitz?

Last, and maybe least, the Defense allowed some big holes and missed tackles, but the Offense should have been able to out-shoot them. What quarter was it when Big Game Holt caught his first pass?
Holt has gotten his catches and TDs all year, today KC decided to shut him down by double covering and playing some deeper coverages, which made the checkdowns the right pass to make instead of forcing it. There is no one at fault for Holt's lack of production today, it was KC's good execution on Holt.
