    The play-by-play data isn't particularly great in football as it is in baseball. But I'd love to know how often -- ie when's the last time -- a team's first possession of a half was interrupted by the end of a quarter.

    Moody did not miss the PAT. Someone blew their block. Moody, frankly, had a great night.

    That’s Wing-T type stuff.

    Because both teams deserve a chance to go on nine-minute drives in overtime. Otherwise IT'S NOT FAIR.

    It was kicked low per Feely and Romo and that's what I saw. Of course 55 & 52 is fantastic.

    Blame the Buffalo Bills defense for all of these changes. They couldn’t keep the Chiefs out of the end zone for 13 seconds.

    Watch the replay. It was a bad kick. Way too low. He did have a great night for a rookie in the Super Bowl, but that miss was still his fault.

    The NFL can't figure out OT. If you're going to have a clock and both teams have the ball and need to score, have the clock be the end of the game, so you have to score before it runs out. If still tied, just have another period. There are many ways to flip a freaking field.

    There were at least two overtime plays I expected to be reviewed by the booth that were not. That may have also contributed some to the rapid-fire quarter.

    (Please note that I regard skipping any and all replays as a win for mankind.)

    He causes CMC to fumble, caused the special teams turnover and was the reason Moody missed the XP.

    Yes, elements can be a factor.

    And through it all, the total misses the 47.5 over/under by half a point.

    Yeah, that missed PAT seems big.

    Although I guess if he makes it the game never goes to OT and likely ends at 20-16, 20-19 or 26-20.
