At this point, I must admit, I did not think the Chiefs were going to lose. I knew they were going to lose. That’s a terrible feeling isn’t it, when you KNOW something bad is about to happen but you still have to actually go through it? It’s that feeling when you have a bad report card but you haven’t yet shown it to your parents.
The loss was certain. Now it was just a matter of watching it. And it was even worse than I imagined. The Chiefs’ offense stalled, of course, and Luck was brilliant in leading the Colts on the 90-yard touchdown drive, of course. But the drive was capped when Indianapolis’ Donald Brown fumbled the ball, it popped in the air into the arms of Luck who plowed in for the score. That didn’t seem necessary.
And on the ensuing drive, the Chiefs blew not one but TWO timeouts.
The Chiefs blew two timeouts.
They blew two timeouts.
Two of them.
I’m sorry. I’m babbling here. Two timeouts. They were leading by three points, they had the ball, they wanted the game to end, they needed to have timeouts left in case they fell behind -- and they blew two timeouts. There are federal laws against this sort of thing, aren’t there?

That was certainly a wasted timeout...
