I went to see this game live! extremely cold out there. i had on 4 layers with hand warmers in my boots and gloves and still was shivering cold. great game though
14:27 Making contact with a player who is clearly out of bounds, is a severe penalty (15 yards assessed against the team who committed the foul). That yardage the foul gave the Chiefs, represented the difference between a 60 yard field goal (possible, but extremely low probability - especially in extreme cold, as in this game), and a 45 yard field goal (fairly routine for kickers at this level). For a parallel to a sport you might know better, that penalty is analogous to committing a needless foul in one's own 18 yard box, with the score level, in the final minute of added time, in a cup semi-final. It's the sort of error that some athletes never recover from, psychologically speaking. I felt horrible for the guy. He knew exactly how badly he had bottled it, and exactly what the consequences were, the very instant he did it.
7:00 that flag was pass interference on the defense it’s when your pushing or shoving the receiver before he gets the ball and usually when the flag is on defense and there’s an interception it reverses that interception and it doesn’t go into the QB’s record
2:41 That's not a blitz. A Blitz is where they send an extra guy, like 5 or 6 players after the QB. That was just the 4 defensive linemen beating the 5 offensive linemen to get a sack.
11:00 the players are wrestling for the ball because it's loose (free ball) until the refferies see who possess it. So they fight for the ball in the pile until the refferies get a clear look/declare who has it .
10:20 Mind you it was like 20°F for t he game and he's not wearing a glove. It couldn't have simply been that his fingers were a little numb and he lost grip of the ball.
11:00 they where wrestling to try and make sure they had the ball so there team could be on offense and they know the officials cannot see them so they are doing whatever they want to try and get the ball
5:40 No it's not just one game. In the NFL playoffs, there are 7 playoff teams in each conference. The #1 ranked team gets to skip round 1, but the other teams have to play in round 1 (Wildcard round) to advance. Then all the remaining teams play in round 2 (divisional round). Then the last remaining teams play in round 3 (Conference championship game). So the top ranked team has to win 2 games to make it to the Super Bowl, while the other teams have to win 3 games to make it there. You are watching round 3.
NFL rules state that when a player starts being tackled, the ball will be placed at the spot where it was when the tackle started. That's called "forward progress". If a player gets dragged backwards during the tackle, that will not count against his forward progress. However, if the player breaks out of a tackle attempt while going backwards, then his forward progress is cancelled out, and will not start again till someone tries to tackle him again.
5:52 That's the reward you get for having a better record during the regular season. Imagine if the Carabao Cup was played at the end of the season and the single leg elimination games were based on who had a better record getting home field. That's what's going on and how the regular season games stay relevant even if 14 out of 32 teams make the playoffs.
On a punt, if the punting team catches the ball or picks it up off the ground, the receiving team still gets the ball from that spot. The only way the punting team can recover the ball for themselves is if a player from the receiving team touches the ball first and then the punting team recovers it..
It was played in the Chiefs stadium because the playoffs are seeded. The Chiefs were the #1 seed so they had homefield advantage for as long as they were in the playoffs
3:43 That's not a "pass", that's a lateral (backward pass). Any player can lateral the ball from anywhere on the field, and this can be done multiple times on the same play. But a forward pass can only be thrown from behind the line of scrimmage, and it can only be done once per play
I always love seeing the reaction to football games from people from other countries. I love how you can watch it with such an open mind where you don't have a bias towards one team or the other.
13:44 on a punt if the punting team touches the ball the other team gets the ball at that spot, so if you punted you wouldn't want to catch the ball unless the ball is bouncing in a direction that helps the other team. If you aren't sure you will catch it or if the ball will go into the endzone you will not catch because if you let the ball go into the endzone you get the ball at the 20 yard line, if you touch the ball and don't catch it then the punting team can take possession of the ball at that spot
10:55 they're wrestling because they're fighting for the ball, hoping the refs believe they always had possession of the ball when the pile is cleared up. By rule the first person to control the fumbled ball has possession, but that's not always clear to the officials, so they're hoping to take the ball from the rightful owner.
Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City (Chiefs) set the world record for the loudest NFL stadium. The crowd there is INSANELY LOUD! Last year when these two teams faced off for the AFC championship, the Bengals practiced with loud ass crowd noise blaring in the stadium so loud that you could hear it down the road. This was so they would be used to playing in that environment. Other teams have become really riled up because the fans were so loud that the opposing team couldn’t hear calls being made by the QB.
The Chiefs were an alright team alternating with a terrible team since the glory days in the 60s. That is until 2017, when they drafted the greatest talent the NFL has ever had in Patrick Mahomes. Since he started playing full time, they have hosted the AFC Championship game for 5 straight years. Even though they are too good for your liking now, you still need to check them out, because they are so fun to watch and made spectacular plays routine.
You must be a young guy if you think Mahomes is the greatest talent NFL ever had. That would be Jim Brown. Hands down. Period. Sorry. And Mahomes as a ways to go to get to be the best QB--which is Joe Montana 4-0 in the Super Bowl--Mahomes has already lost.
@@gregcable3250 I said talent, not accomplishments or ability to run. I never got to watch Jim Brown play. Did he do more than make people miss, break tackles and run fast? Did he contort his body in ways he shouldn't be able to and throw the ball accurately downfield with only his arm strength? Every player in the NFL is talented, but the level of athleticism has risen consistently through the years. Mahomes, in an age of amazingly athletic players, does things in almost every game that the others just can't.
@@gregcable3250 no qb has had a better start. Gtfoh😭 by the end of his career , hes gonna be top 2 ever. If you think otherwise.. just stop speakin on football💀
I'm sorry, but you have to credit to Alex Smith really putting the Chiefs on the path to where we are now and the selflessness with which he mentored Mahomes. He went all in on setting Mahomes up for success. The Chiefs turnaround started with Alex Smith!
These two teams played in the AFC championship (this game) last year (in KC as well), and CIN went on to lose to LA in the SB. The year prior KC lost the SB to TB.
17 regular season games, if you make the playoffs and have the best record you get 1 week off before your next game (worst record of remaining teams), if you make the playoffs and are not in first you play without the week of and would need to win 3 games (best record 2 wins) to make the Superbowl and play for the championships....2 conferences the AFC and NFC both play in the Superbowl, and you have the North, East, South, and West and divisions in each conference with 4 teams each
FYI--Arrowhead Stadium, where this game was played, is NOT a neutral territory (which you'd wondered about in the video). Arrowhead is KC's home stadium, known as the loudest stadium in the NFL (they actually clocked it years ago and found out it was true). These fans are profoundly pro-KC and were FURIOUS that the Bengals were trash-talking in the week before the game, claiming they were coming to 'Burrowhead' (a hat tip to Joe Burrow, their QB) and even got the mayor of Cincinnati (an Ohio city) involved in the trash talk. Very satisfying to see the Chiefs beat the pants off them!
Get to know the back story of this game, there was a lot of trash talk because the Bengals have beaten the Chiefs 3 times( only by 3 points). Everytime they play it is a big deal!. All the trash talk just made the victory by the Chiefs that much better!!!!! ❤💛🏈🔥
There are contingency plans to pick up the blitz if it is recognized by the offense. But yes constant successful pressures can rattle a QB if not picked up correctly.
No this was not the Super Bowl last year. It couldn't be the Super Bowl, because both teams are in the same Conference (The AFC). The NFL is divided into two Conferences: The AFC and the NFC, both consisting of 16 teams. The winners of each Conference in the playoffs are the teams who advance to the Super Bowl, meaning teams in the same Conference can never play each other in it. However, these two teams did play against each other in the AFC championship game last year, just as they did in this game. The Bengals won that game in overtime, a game that was also won by three points.
The division champions are seeded in order of win percentages. The No. 1 seed in each conference not only earns the top spot but also home-field advantage up to the Super Bowl. The second seed would then go to whichever of the division champions has the next-best record.
The forward progress rule is the answer to where the placement of the ball goes. Where ever the last bit of forward progress occurs is where the player is considered down. This is usually where the most controversy happens due to forward progress being judged by the human eye (ref), and because of which is most likely where you would see a challenge.
You haven't checked out the Pittsburgh Steelers? They've won 5 Super Bowls which is the championship games after playoffs from the two major divisions NFC and AFC (National Football Conference and American Football Conference). They won five major championships which is most ever. The major championship is called the Super Bowl. They were at the start of the NFL.
I'm going to suggest a radical idea and say not to pick A team. Just watch and, hopefully, enjoy good games. Over time you'll probably just starting liking (and disliking) players and teams naturally.
This is a late comment. But Kelce tossing the ball back is not common practice in the NFL 😂 you rarely see it. As a chiefs fan I think it the last time we did it was the 2019 season vs the lions. It’s called a lateral, and they can only be passed behind you not in front.
The best way to learn would be to watch a good game (SB49). Watch the whole thing, every play and rule will be fully explained by the announcers, and you can go back and rewatch things as you like. By the end of that game you'll have learned 90% of everything you need to know, and it was a great game to watch. The whole game is on youtube at 2h11m long.
Players are marked with progress at the point of reception. As long as they are attempting to move forward, the ball will be marked where it was caught, even if the defense pushes them backward.
There is usually heavy bonding chemistry between QB’s and the receivers so Higgins and burrow would be like a perfect match and it depends on how fast the receivers are and how accurate and on timing the QB can throw
Pause as much as you need bro, we love the long videos and watch them for what you have to say💯 it’s also better to not talk over the announcers as they will answer a lot of your questions
6:25 these game highlights are very poorly edited and don't show a lot of clips they should, like this one. Here KC-6 hits CIN-88 right before the ball arrives, causing Defensive Interference, resulting in the penalty and negating the interception that resulted. It's hard to see in real time, but the replay made it clear.
It took 50 plus years to get the win in superbowl 54 so when you don't wont to support a underdog for over 5 centuries then goon wit your bad self.....But i will give you this. The Kansas City Chiefs and The Orignal Owner had a crap ton to do with the formation of the NFL there is rich history with thisFranchise!
Sorry for the few random cuts the NFL asked me to cut them to be able to show the video
I went to see this game live! extremely cold out there. i had on 4 layers with hand warmers in my boots and gloves and still was shivering cold. great game though
14:27

1:14 You get granted "forward progress" unless you get free and take the opportunity to run backwards.
11:00 the players are wrestling for the ball because it's loose (free ball) until the refferies see who possess it. So they fight for the ball in the pile until the refferies get a clear look/declare who has it .

In post season the higher seeded team is home . The Super Bowl, championship, is only game played at neutral site.
On a punt, if the punting team catches the ball or picks it up off the ground, the receiving team still gets the ball from that spot. The only way the punting team can recover the ball for themselves is if a player from the receiving team touches the ball first and then the punting team recovers it..
13:40 A player of the kicking team may legally touch, catch, or recover the ball if it first touches a receiving team player.
It was played in the Chiefs stadium because the playoffs are seeded. The Chiefs were the #1 seed so they had homefield advantage for as long as they were in the playoffs
3:43 That's not a "pass", that's a lateral (backward pass). Any player can lateral the ball from anywhere on the field, and this can be done multiple times on the same play. But a forward pass can only be thrown from behind the line of scrimmage, and it can only be done once per play

When a ball carrier is thrown backwards.They are marked down at the point that the tacker initially touched them, not where they end up.
10:55 they're wrestling because they're fighting for the ball, hoping the refs believe they always had possession of the ball when the pile is cleared up.

You should try and watch the Chiefs divisional game against the Houston Texans.
That game was NUTS!
Glad to see you still on this journey. Much respect from across the pond.
Correct You can only pass forward once from behind the line of scrimmage .

When it’s a successful catch where ever they start getting tackled from and they start going backward that furthest point is where it’s marked
That is true unless the runner moves backwards on his own

14:37 It's a foul to do that because the play is over, the ball is dead and he's outside the field of play.
Burrow getting sacked so much wasn't even his fault. His offensive line kept getting beat.
Burrow'd. Lol.
In the playoffs the team with a higher seed gets home field advantage.
Yea if you hit the floor but no one touched u u still can get up and keep running and you keep playing till u hear the whistle
