Those who were brave enough to try to explain did so honestly. Painfully honest. As honest as this stat from Elias Sports Bureau: The Chiefs are the first team since the 1975 Vikings to start 9-0 and lose their first playoff game.
Ever notice that it’s always the Vikings who show up in stats like this? And by the way, that pass by Brett Favre that cost Green Bay the game? That would be Metrodome Brett, the evil twin brother of Brett Favre, Superstar QB. It’s a little known fact that the Philadelphia Eagles kidnapped Brett and substituted MetBrett before the overtime kickoff.
