Punt. Defense. Drive for FG to win game. Moron.
(Also it would help if KaDaverous Toney knew how to catch a ball. Or if Sneed and Reid knew how to tackle. That was notably pathetic. I'll forgive one whiff, but it was multiples for all of them.)

I was trying to figure out what I was missing when Andy Reid was going to go for it on 4th-and-20, with all three timeouts plus the two-minute warning, merely a 1-point deficit, and field position all pointing towards punt... I then thought for sure when the 5-yard penalty was tacked on to make it 4th-and-25, he'd reconsider and punt... I just have no idea what was going thru the brain of one of the best coaches in the game...
It's not like the Lions were carving up the Chiefs defense. Detroit's offense only scored 14 points... I just don't get it.
That said, it's a great win for the Lions. They are an easy team to like... their coach, QB, lots of nice youngin's... and a fan base that deserves something to get excited about...
As for the Chiefs, it didn't help that they were shorthanded, but they basically gave this game away.
