The sacks part was hyperbole. I know Sutton is DC, but the buck stops at the HC and for Andy Ried as HC and offensive genius to sit and watch a situation that invites big plays to occur and to watch all second half without saying anything to the DC to change the approach is embarrassing. That doesn't happen to Marty. Marty's playoff woes came in close games with unlucky breaks near the end. You give Marty a 38-10 lead and the game is over. Of course Marty probably wouldn't have gotten to the 38-10 to begin with.
To play prevent D with out a deep safety is the equivalent, for any hockey fans, of playing trap defense with a lead but pulling your goalie.

I don't disagree with your analysis. I just feel like Reid did an amazing job with the playcalling for the offense. So it's kind of hard for me to get on his case about the defense, but I certainly get your point.

The first 31 minutes of playcalling was masterful. He made Alex Smith look like John Elway. It was the playcalling with the lead that I don't understand. The sack fumble came on a play that should 100 out of 100 times be a run play. And the 4th down bomb was way too risky. It's a 4th down for the game and you risk a sideline pass down the field? No way do I agree with that. My critique of Reid in Philly all those years with Westbrook was he was way too pass happy when he didn't need to be, and while I was wrong in my prediction for the whole season that Charles would get lost in the shuffle because of it, it was the too much passing that did them in during the 2nd half.
Now, I whole heartedly feel if Charles didn't get taken out the Chiefs would have ran away with it because you can't deny JC his touches with a 38-10 lead and he would have worn down the Indy D, but even with out him and the back up, McCluster should have simply been handed the ball to run the clock and win the game. Peyton Hillis sure would have come in handy with the 38-10 lead as well.

Peyton Hillis is terrible. Please don't remind me of the Hell that was the Chiefs 2012 season.
