The UGLY, the Bad and the gud

Well,

12 hours have passed. Still disgusted at the outcome. There was so MUCH ugly in yesterday's game, I won't delve deep into the muck and mire, just give my top 3 UGLY's, which likely mirrors everyone else's.
  • DJax Fumble
  • 3 turnovers = 3points
  • Allowing the last return to come out of the endzone.
Those were things that bottom dwelling teams do, and yes, that's who we are.

Then there was a slew of Bad things, and in no particular order, they include; Jordan Reed's penalties, Phantom penalties, the sleep walking start that seems to be involved with every primetime or away game (maybe JG needs to be drinking a gallon of Red Bull an hour before the game, but the ref's might penalize him for using unauthorized wings), the FEDEX Field Technical glitches - seriously can the Skins not give national media funny fodder every time we have a home game, the defense giving up the ghost in the last 44 seconds - did everyone say we left too much time on the clock when we scored because I know I did. And a whole bunch more when you lose to a 3-8 team.

As hard as it is, I want to spotlight a couple good things - This is NOT intended as a rah-rah because, well, we frickin lost to a 3-8 dallas team that hadn't won without TR...
but
Dallas only converted 1 of 9 3rd downs

KC did not throw any interceptions, covered up his fumble, and he didn't take bad sacks (ie ones that pushed us out of FG range even though Dallas got to him nearly every time). In fact I think had DJax not gone all cray cray KC would have led a sustained drive to give us the win.

Once the Red Bull kicked in, we started moving the ball fairly effectively -
First 4 drives:15 plays 13 yds (ugh), 0 points
Next 4 drives:34 plays 164 yds , 9 points (included both bogus penalties)
last 3 drives: 15 plays 83 yds, 7 points and a missed fg
Back to KC,

The D got 3 turnovers, even if the Offense didnt capitalize on them that still is a positive in the game.

Ah well, back to being disgusted...
