What happened

L.Latu's goal-line interception of P.Mahomes in the first quarter should have been the play this game was remembered for. Instead, it's the overtime collapse — X.Worthy's 31-yard catch, then R.Rice gashing the defense for 21 more — that fans will replay in their heads. Three straight pass-heavy possessions while nursing a two-score lead handed K.Paye's late sack all the way back. A loss like this doesn't just sting; it raises real questions about who's calling the game.
