Forked from: Happy? Yes...BUT! (http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/showpost.php?postid=2742425)
BTW Eb, I posted it first. :D
But since you asked. My questions:
1. Why was Edwards still in there late in the game?
2. Why was Edwards still throwing the ball with a 30 point lead?
3. Why the hell did we kneel the ball down and give it back to them? At least run the ball and try to get a first.
anyone else have any problems with some of the coaching decisions yesterday in a blowout win?

I agree with the 4th down kneel. You at least try to pick up the first and keep the clock running there. Also wouldn't have minded seeing Edwards out a series or two sooner.

The kneel down inside the 2 minute mark got to me. The Bills should have tried to get another first down to allow them to completely run out the clock.
As for the rest of it; Edwards needed confidence, so keeping him in there and letting him throw the football when he was getting results is fair enough in my opinion.

Bad clock management continues, and some questionable play calls on both sides of the ball, but when you put up 54 none of that really becomes glaring.

there was a play where Trent needed to call a time out because the play clock had run down and this was right after a penalty on the chiefs. that kind of stuff is ridiculous

I am happy they made a statement and have zero problems with them keeping Edwards and Co. in the game. He needs all the confidence he can get.

Trent stayed in long enough to get Evans over 100 yards, I have no problem with that or the late game kneel downs.

Trent obviously got his confidence back and I'm sure Turk wanted to keep it rolling instead of cutting it short.

The O needed to have this game,
BUT... besides a few plays and great ball hawking by McKelvin I still think our D SUCKS BALLS, and it was again exposed for being a weak, bend don't break, too much cushion styled scheme. 31 points given up, wide open WR's everywhere, and a few key drops by wide open KC WR's benefitted the D... Once again the D was torched by some huge runs.
Playoff caliber O's will destroy us...

Ever since Thigpen took over, KC's O hasn't exactly been a slouch.

Trent needed all the snaps he could get.
