Top 3 reasons why the Chiefs lost today

Top 3 reasons why the Chiefs lost today:
1. Charlie Weiss - glad he's gone. his playcalling all year heas been headscratching at best. Good riddance Charlie! You run Jamaal CHarles one time in the 2nd half???? Once???

2. Turnovers - You don't win any game when you turn the ball over 5 times. Let along playoff games against Baltimore.

3. Wide Receivers. Only 2 pass attempts to the WR's all day. 2????, that's got to be a record. They got no seperation all day. #1 offseason need is WR.

It would be easy to blame this loss on the defense, but the Chiefs offense just kept putting the defense in so many bad situations.

What are your top 3 reasons that are KC(not Baltimore) related?

Not against the run at all. We became one dimensional for some reason and that made things a lot easier.

Yeah its called halftime and the Ravens made their adjustments to make the Chiefs change their offensive plan.

It's called we didn't run with Charles but once in the 2nd half. Keep running until they stop it. They never did.

It's puzzling that they woiuld only run JC once in the 2nd half.

I think there may be more to the Charlie Weis story that we don't know about.

You can't keep running the ball when you're losing.

Actually, when you have the #1 run game, you do run when you're behind. It opens up the pass game. Reason 1-3: Weiss. Our offense was not directed by the Ravens defense. It was crippled by horrible play calling and the Ravens capitalized on it. Weiss literally threw in the towel. Now he deserves all the derision that can be thrown at the obese son of a b!tch.

3. Lack of a true starting safety opposite of Eric Berry. McGraw was beaten every time Todd Heap was wide open. He also blew his assignment on the first TD. If he stayed disciplined, he may have been able to make the tackle before he got into the endzone.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?!?!

Berry was responsible for covering Heap more than McGraw was. Heap ripped both of them apart today. Berry could not cover Heap anymore than McGraw could.

My top three reasons?

1. The safeties-Both safeties were beat all day today, rookie mistakes by Berry and the inability to play by McGraw killed us on Third down stops. Too many times we tried to blitz Berry on safety only to have him enter into the blitz too late, and not cover the tight end over the middle.

2. Wide Receivers - No team will go to the super bowl by running the ball only. We have to have a passing threat. Bowe is just not fast enough to get open, we need a number one receiver to stretch the field.

3. Relying on Charles to win it all. Charles is not a large enough back to be relied on completely to win the game for us. Especially against a big team like this. He is great if he does not get hit, but when he starts getting hit hard, he does not last long. Haley and Weiss had a great game plan all season, but that game plan completely went out the window today with repeatedly running Charles like so many of you wanted him to do. Well now you know why I was saying this cannot work. Yeah, he hit one home run today, but he did very little more than that.
