Chiefs Game-Winning Plays, Explained | The QB Room 

To a non expert these guys are clearly explaining everything with jargon for those who dig that but with clarity for those who don't. No flash. No music. Nothing but solid info.🙂

On the 0:03 "Corn Dog" (Tom and Jerry) play, there are legitimately at least 4 options: Option 1: If Bosa doesn't crash on McKinnon, he's open for a shovel pass, protected by a double-team block on each side. Option 2: Hardman (was wide open). Option 3: If Ward comes off Kelce to take Hardman, Kelce heads for the back corner of the end zone, Mahomes goes over the top to him. Option 4: If all of those are covered, Mahomes keeps.

I am a play by play type of guy. I love the break down of each play, what went right and wrong and what needs to happen to improve the team for the future. Thank you. . -Ken-

who knew that this level of analysis even existed .. like a world class surgeon post operation .. insightful !

I love Mahomes and think he is one of the greatest QBs of all time. Our defense this year was CRAZY UNDERRATED. We have some absolute dogs but most importantly some of the highest football IQ players in the game on our defense. I was rooting so hard for this Superbowl for THEM. LFG Chiefs

Love this as a KC fan. You guys are great at breaking down complex plays into digestible pieces for us casuals who have no idea how Xs and Os work.

Notice Kelce subtly keeps getting in the way… brilliant !!!😂

What a FANTASTIC break down from you guys. Awesome hearing from the perspective of the “other Allen”.

Chiefs fan, from Philly... Great Breakdown of some very crucial plays. All Momentum movers. Thank You. This was textbook film room talk made understandable for even a high schooler.

The best part of the winning touchdown, focus on Kelce he is looking at the jumbo screen watching the touchdown.

This is Grade A analysis and breakdown of some of the best plays (albeit regular looking) of SB58. The plays were all huge and they werent spectacular looking but they were masterfully called and executed as JP and KA gracefully and tactfully shares in this episode. I will be checking out your other vids fasho. 🙏🏽🙌🏼🔥

Great breakdown!❤

I’ve watched a bunch of these film break down vids since the SB and this is bar none THE most insightful session I’ve seen. As a casual fan who is trying to learn a little more about the technical and nuanced aspects of the game, there’s nothing better than how you guys cover the details.

Great job, guys . Very well done.

LOVE this commentary. The plays that really determined the outcome are explained in depth here. Two very knowledgeable qb's who see things that most fans overlook. Look forward to watching more content from you great job great video

Is it called "corn dog" because, like mustard, you layer it on lengthwise in one direction first and then go back in the opposite direction? 😂

Great analysis gents! Loved the detail and knowledge you brought to this. I think the best part is Kelce watching the big screen knowing the game is over before it's over.

Killer job! This level of breakdown was amazing to see. Will be looking forward to future videos

Just wanted to say I really enjoyed this. You guys work well together & do a great job of keeping the pace & energy moving along, which I imagine can be tough to do with analytics. Excellent work, gentlemen👍

Loved the commentary, very informative and runs it all down for us simpletons. But, I have one huge disagreement. Mahomes 4th and 1 run was definitely a highlight. The Super Bowl was on the line. I'm sure it's not a highlight in how you're thinking about it, but it's definitely a highlight. Even if it wasn't "fancy", he got a yard and then some. He made the defense look like fools with all the yards he got. Championship on the line and he made the run look easy.

Thanks fellas I loved this breakdown

Tanks. I've been looking for your exact breakdown of this.

Thank you. Very informative.

Really loved this breakdown from both of you. Great perspective, great analysis, really loved this.

Excellent breakdown boys

Great explanations guys, learned a lot.

really great insight. yes, different from most vids out there. Nice.

Like a true clinic. Very thoughtful and enlightening!

Great video ! Thats why i love this g ame because it destroys the stereotype that they are a bunch of dumb jocks. I would love to sit in on a film session as they prepare for a team!

You guys did a terrific job of slecting the critical plays to break down. I've been a Chiefs fan since the 2nd grade as I grew up just south of KC. There hadn't been much to cheer about in Chiefs Kingdom until they brought in Mahomes and while there are other great players on the team, especially the defense, he has been a difference maker. AND they somehow looked beyond all the negatives surrounding Pat before the draft and moved up to select him. They still need an upgrade at receivers, but they somehow got it done, again, without Tyreek.

Fantastic breakdown of that brilliant audible at 12:50. Love it! On the discussion from 2:05 - 2:29, sorry, but I'm not able to follow the thread. Starts with "If this balls complete in bounds..." then concludes with "we're still gonna get a possession in the 2nd half"

you guys made me NFL elite football teams in a new way….. how impossibly complex this game is.

gangster, indeed.

All hail the glorious Chiefs

Good breakdown. Go chiefs!

Marshall Faulk had that Dad bod, too. And he was a great athlete, too.

great breackdown

Spags has said this all players on defense are all high IQ that makes it easier to adjust on the run...ie 2nd half.

KC is a complete team. All facets of the game.... I don't understand why the kicking team doesn't get more love.

McDuffy was trying to knock the ball down, not sack the qb. You can see him change his angle to get into throwing lane for where Aiyuk would be if he crossed (I say it would be because McDuffy couldn't see it) he then jumps to make it even more difficult for Purdy. Purdy doesn't use different arm angles, and he footwork was bad all game, so it was to take advantage of all of that.

It's not only about "change direction at 75% speed." It's also the MIND. He beat Bosa with a play fake. He doesn't run until the time is ripe and defenders' eyes are looking the other way, or just running or even leaning the wrong way, giving him room to run. Yeah, they could stuff Pacheco if they were laying for him, but also KC kept going to Pacheco, regardless of how little success he was having. It's more than just understanding opponent tendencies. It's building up tendencies in yourself that you can BREAK when the moment is ripe. Imagine the patience it took to keep different things they wanted to do under wraps all season long. A 2-2-7 on that last play you showed, and they didn't just hand it off and run it down KC's throat. Do you think the pre-snap motion of Justin Reid was what made the RG think "I got #20" in an inside-out blocking scheme, where he expect the RT to slide over and take Jones. You could see how he helped the C with the combo block and came off it to hit #20. If he goes over on Chris Jones right away, he's giving #20 a free run at the QB. One thing you need to mention about KC's exotic personnel packages is the confidence they have in the DB group. I think Steve Wilks got a bad rap, but the one thing that looked like a scheme breakdown was Bosa crashing inside on the play fake and running himself right out of the play. I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing, if you scheme another hat to mop up in the area Bosa vacated, because you WANT Bosa to trigger on the give to Pacheco. I suppose it's possible that Bosa just read it wrong and was trying to play hero ball, instead of maintaining discipline and setting edge. One of the things that SF fans were mad about was "all the cover-2" and "quarters" coverage, when you see that in spite of all the WR issues, KC still had two speed guys in Hardman and MVS. And even though the completion rate to those two wasn't super-high, especially on the deep ball, Mahomes was still going to take some shots. Betting on those shots was less a thing than betting against those shots on the other side of the ball, because just when you think you've got KC bottled up, Mahomes takes the shot. The "blueprint" for beating Mahomes for a couple years running, now, has been to deny those deep shots, with or without Tyreek Hill on the roster. Then they were mad at the cover-0. "You can't run cover-0, here!" I think maybe Steve Wilks got a bad rap.

Chiefs = Contextual Genius + Impeccable Execution + Luck =

They keep their 1st possession into the 2nd OT the clock was irrelevant because it was their 1st possession. So they would have been able to have 2nd and 3rd and goal in the 2nd OT to tie or win the game. I didn't realize that watching the game either but it didn't matter cuz they scored that TD and won the Super Bowl! Great explanation guys on the OT rules!

The fact that y'all didn't analyze the trick play from Jennings to McCaffrey TD tells me that was exciting to look at for all of 3 seconds but wasn't anything substantial LOL

Great feedback from these two professionals, sadly theirs too much talk and too many unnecessary comments. This video was 44 minutes long. A good video editor could have removed 35 minutes of unnecessary talk. This segment should have only been "10 MINUTES LONG," and no longer. Our lives are too busy to listen to unnecessary fluff.

Luv the content guys! Question - have y'all ever considered bringing on a non-football person to ask elementary football questions, that a non-football person might ask, regarding your film breakdowns? I ask b/c one question I had on this video deals w/ the last play y'all analyzed regarding SF being in the wrong protection scheme for KC's defense. My Question - If SF had changed the protection scheme would the pass routes have to change also or could you still run the same routes w/ same personnel?

15! That is all.

KC Chiefs fans knew the OT rules due to fact that NE scored a TD in OT in the 2018 Championship game and won without Chiefs getting the ball back and the NFL did nothing until Chiefs beat Bills in OT the same way two years later. THEN they changed the rules because Josh Allen never got the ball back. Chiefs Kingdom know the OT rules!

i want these guys to go over plays from 49ers, no offense but i find the chiefs a really boring team and the 49ers seem alot more exciting offensively and i would love to see more analysis from 49er's offensive plays, cheers!

Awesome break down guys! Unfortunately, that last play still wasnt justified, nothing explained why that guard did what he did to that extend.

I don't understand how so many hardcore fans and even players didn't know the rules? Like im a european swiftie football viewer and i knew the rules lol

Mahomes said,"i take from ALL THE GREATS!"

If the clock hit zero in OT1, the field would have been flipped and a new 15:00 on the clock in OT2.

Time stamp for last third down play in regulation. The non throw to open Rice. Thanks

Wish you could show playclock on your screen

One of the other plays that I thought lost the game for the 49ers is the one where they have like six of their defenders adjust to the Chiefs' offensive motion, and they're still trying to get set when the ball is snapped. I don't remember what the result of that play was, but it surely would have been different if the defenders had been in position and ready to respond to the play.

Simply really: KC went old school FB, run, double, triple options! And they some "rope a dope" , they let the opponent show their hand, figure out weak points, them jump all-over them 'like a chicken on a junebug' 😂😂😂😂😂

You don't think that first play was same side power shovel? Read Bosa.

What are the chances that Bolton knocks down the pass if McDuffie would have gotten blocked? (34 minutes)

Mvs called the play on 4 and 1

Kansas City is the #1 NFL team at misdirection. It’s built into most O and many D sets.

Why call a time out. If the clock runs out you just start another ot period on the other side of the field

That first play was a shuttle pass to 1 but Mahomes went to the 2nd read after Bosa broke up the plan.

"USING" bosas' aggression - AGAINST HIM!

my ignorance is abysmal. this vid and others i have been watching makes football about weapons and tactics. how everything comes together in chaos. thank you.

♨️

The Tomato 🍅 Can beater! The Kansas City Chiefs!

Funny how the Bill's cried about the old OT. So they changed the rules . The Chiefs beat them with the old rules.

Mahomes is is a football geek

Kittle wasn't all there.

The time in OT ment nothing really

How much can you break down a play that's 11 on 9? haha

Plus bear LB was not at the proper depth on the touchdown pass and the free safety in my opinion was a little out of position

*hold a lot* Mahomes throws short. /end

I respectfully disagree with your analysis of the 49ers 2nd miscue. Even having the benefit of replaying it, I disagree. Purdy was loaded and ready to throw the slant to Aiyuk as he was looking over there at the snap. He just didn't throw the ball. Why? I have no idea. He had Aiyuk on the slant right away and the fact that Purdy was looking that way at the snap is a bad play by Purdy. Nothing special about the Chiefs defense on that play.

Everyone keeps saying illegal man down field.

Didn't the 49ers start the game with trick plays? Well the Chiefs ended the game with a trick play " slight of hand " it looked simple but it was really tricky.

Chief would have not kicked on 4th down.

Why did the Raiders and Broncos beat the Chiefs beat them down the second time around? I know! KC don't have hardly any plays!

They knew the rules.. its their job to know the rules. They anounced the rules and then explained again at the coin toss. Also if u listen to the mic'd up version.. the 49ers are on the sideline talkin about and acknowledging the new rules of ot. Lol these teams literally say anything but we didnt play well and it cost us the game.. please go watch the mic'd up superbowl game, it'll change ur perspective.😂

Shanahan will always remember that OT rules changed his future coaching behavior. Lesson learned. Your the reason the niners lost

Your analyses show me that the margin for victory is really very small. The devil is in the details at the NFL level. Thanks.

There was not 3 minutes left...it would of went to next quarter

Are you guys really praising Mahomes for the 4th down run? Every single college qb would've made that play. Its literally an open field run.

Turned it off after 90 seconds when the so-called expert said there was 3 seconds left in overtime. If you can't be bothered to know the overtime rules, even if you're an ex-NFL QB, then nothing else in your video is worth watching. You lost all credibility with me. The Chiefs scored when there were 3 seconds left in the first quarter of overtime. If the clock hit zero before they scored, then they would have just flipped the field and started the 2nd quarter of overtime at the other end. Sorry "The QB Room", you don't know what you're talking about.

Not going to find as good an analysis.....anywhere. Guys who played and are currently playing the position discussing the nuances of in game QB performance. Like Grandmasters teaching the second, third and fourth level options on chess gambits.

It’s Violent Chess ♟️. Great video!
