It's amazing to see a 41 year old man who has done it all over and over again be so pumped up in the first quarter of a conference Championship game.

Only 12:38;)

Looks like Patriots are going to grind them with the run and short passes again. Not a fun watch for the neutrals but bloody effective.

MileHighGuy · 21-01-2019 1:13am

What happened to razzle dazzle college offenses? This look like the nebraska cornhuskers from the eighties!

kmart6 · 21-01-2019 1:13am

Well that makes it a lil more interesting.

el Fenomeno · 21-01-2019 1:14am

Boneheaded call, boneheaded execution. Just all around boneheaded.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero · 21-01-2019 1:14am

Disaster. Could be a massive momentum change.

ScrubsfanChris · 21-01-2019 1:14am

Now I know how Seahawks fans feel

Not that hard when you know your career is nearly done and you never know when it is your last chance.

Nevermind.... didn't see that coming. Very (very) unbrady-like.

How can the picture/sound quality with the Around the NFL segments be so awful?!

coco0981 · 21-01-2019 1:15am

Crazy to even say it this early but that feels like a crucial turnover. If they had gone 14 points up Chiefs were in trouble

eagle eye · 21-01-2019 1:15am

The end of the completions without an int in the playoffs record. I don't think that record will ever be beaten.

kmart6 · 21-01-2019 1:16am

It's a TO stopping me from going to bed for another bit.

LuckyGent88 · 21-01-2019 1:16am

Hmmmm, well that was a ****e play anyway. Could be a big turning point but it’s good to see how we are getting down the field quite easily.

Strange call given how well Develin has blocked recently, but the throw was all on Brady

ScrubsfanChris · 21-01-2019 1:19am

On the plus side, Pats defence will be super fresh in the 2nd half.

kmart6 · 21-01-2019 1:19am

Chiefs not able to get anything going.

eagle eye · 21-01-2019 1:21am

Brady is now one off tying a record he doesn't want which is most ints in the playoffs. Favre has 28, the GOAT now has 27.

el Fenomeno · 21-01-2019 1:22am

Just read on twitter that the interception on the 1 yard line joins a very illustrious club of memorable playoff interceptions at the 1 yard line. Butler's game-winning interception, and James Harrison's 100 yard pick-six.

kmart6 · 21-01-2019 1:24am

Berry should have had that!

eagle eye · 21-01-2019 1:24am

What a play, great catch by White.

Hazys · 21-01-2019 1:30am

What are the refs doing standing over the ball for that long? They did it on the Pats 3rd down too and Brady seemed pissed, don’t think I’ve seen that before

kmart6 · 21-01-2019 1:34am

Mahomes needed that.

Which lead to that....wow.

el Fenomeno · 21-01-2019 1:34am

Patriots' coverage is beginning to crumble.

Crumble might be a bit much for two plays.

Three wide-open plays in a row!

Stating the obvious, but they've all been when Mahomes has had time.

LuckyGent88 · 21-01-2019 1:36am

Great to get away with not conceding on that possession after the big play by Hill.

Third play was a pick on a LB who was covering the line.

Didn't last long did it?

ScrubsfanChris · 21-01-2019 1:39am

That will eat at Mahomes, should have thrown an easy TD then get sacked miles behind the line on the next play.

*hopefully I'm not earing my own words 2 hours from now

It rarely does with them!

Chiefs will regret not getting a score in this half. Patriots always adjust well at the half - though hard to figure out what needs to be adjusted here.

The ones they do on Sky sports is it ? Erica Tamposi is drunk clearly.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero · 21-01-2019 1:48am

Jimmy White has a serious set of hands.

ScrubsfanChris · 21-01-2019 1:50am

Pat's have kept the ball so long, CBS are desperate to get these commercial breaks in.

Mr. Guappa · 21-01-2019 1:51am

Boom!

LuckyGent88 · 21-01-2019 1:51am

Another brilliant drive and finished off this time. Apart from that silly pick, that is a perfectly played half from us.

el Fenomeno · 21-01-2019 1:52am

Brady's pump fake has been one of the prettiest things in the NFL for the last 2 decades.

eagle eye · 21-01-2019 1:52am

Yes, Yes, Yes, Philip Dorsett you beauty. Great throw by Brady. That's huge.

el Fenomeno · 21-01-2019 1:53am

That's one of the quickest halves of football I've seen in a good while.

kmart6 · 21-01-2019 1:53am

Good play. Feel Nelson could have done a bit better though.

That's me done for the night, good luck to whoever is staying up for it!

jack presley · 21-01-2019 1:54am

Safe to go to bed do you reckon?

eagle eye · 21-01-2019 1:56am

Last weekend against the Chargers was the best defense for one half of football in the playoffs. This one is even better.

eagle eye · 21-01-2019 1:57am

1 hour 16 minutes for a half of football is pretty quick.
I might make it on time in the morning if they keep that up.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero · 21-01-2019 1:58am

Pats were up 15 at home at HT in week 6. Mahomes then went and threw for 4 TDs to almost win the game. Only a matter of time before he puts together a drive imo. It's just about limiting them.

Patriots were ahead by more at half time when they met on Foxborough, that was a classic second half.

no.8 · 21-01-2019 1:59am

Pat's playing well. Awful 1st half by the chiefs. They need to switch on.

You have to give the other side a reasonable chance to substitute when you do. Refs were right.

Standard Patriots squeezing every bit out of the rule book and it nearly worked if they got the play off.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero · 21-01-2019 2:04am

Dunno how anyone can say the refs didn't cost the Saints the game. They would've at the very least had a FG from 20 yards with 4 secs remaining, giving the Rams - at most - the KO return. Still can't believe the non-call, it's gets worse the more you watch it.

It is clearly the Chiefs who will need to make adjustments so it might be the other way around. Pretty much nothing has gone right for the Chiefs aside from not being behind by more. Patriots left at least 10 points out there but the TD at the end made up for it a bit. Looked like they were playing just to keep Mahomes off the field until Reid called the timeout and they converted that 3rd down.
