Listen, homer take here but the zebras did affect the game but they didn't alter it either. The Chiefs lost because they game planned around the Bucs doing the same thing as in week 12, which they didn't and when the Chiefs adjusted guys didn't make plays.
1. Game plan - Reid got boat raced. Plain and simple. He set his offensive line up to fail with the inital game plan and failed to make adjustments in the second half.
2. Chiefs kicked FGs and the Bucs got TDs
3. Chiefs let Brady be a game manager. I don't trust Brady's game at all if he has to make the deep down the field throws when his team is behind. Now you give him a lead and a running game that is damn near impossible to overcome.
4. Drops by the skill guys. Hell, the skill guys in general let Mahomes down.
5. Zebras. You are a damn fool if you don't think the DPI on Evans and the wiped off INT didn't change the outcome of the game because both of them resulted in TB TDs. If nothing more it took away the aggressiveness of how the Chiefs corners played. Yes, they are a 'handsy' group and probably by the letter of the law those were correct calls but you can't tell me that those penalties didn't get called the week before and that the Bucs weren't doing the same damn thing to Hill and Kelce. That was a laughable disparity in the first half.
