Colorado vs. California: Looking back at the 2014 classic

Last night, the Kansas Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams played in what many have been quick to call the most entertaining game in NFL history. Indicative of college concepts infecting the NFL, this game was about high-flying offenses lighting up scoreboards in a back-and-forth thriller.

Young studs Patrick Mahomes and Jared Goff combined for 891 yards and 11 touchdowns (and also 4 turnovers). With elite weapons all over the field and brilliant coaches scheming them open, each team’s middling secondaries were gashed over and over. The only disharmony came from Defensive Player of the Year front-runners Aaron Donald and Dee Ford causing sporadic mayhem, but there was nothing else that could be done against these prolific quarterbacks.
