THIS BELOW! Great response @Dr. K! What a stupid thread...like for real. Nobody on this board has even the faintest idea of what coaching McD is doing, or any coach, in a game. News flash...coaches are not mic'd up. You don't know what he is discussing, what he is saying to players, what adjustments he is making. You literally know nothing other than the outcome of the game and then you all make up what ever you want to make up about what you THINK happened. Most this board is so dense they don't even know that McD isn't calling the offense in the game. I am not even saying McD is perfect or must stay...I am just saying this is just a pointless thread that has no answer to where the goal is start ANOTHER smear thread on McD because the OP felt his personal smear attempt needed everyones attention.

This is the post above you are responding to from me...the bolded is what I actually said which is different than what you claimed I said. Please show me where I said KC automatically was gonna win even if Bass makes the kick. So the only thing wrong here is you responding telling me I said KC was automatically going to win, which I didn't. What I said is that Bass is not the reason we lost the game. He didn't miss a game winner, he missed a kick to tie the game with plenty of time left for the other team to try and win in regulation. What Bass missed kick did was take away a chance to try and win the game later (again, game is tied if he makes the kick so we still need to get a stop and score again to win the game).

I’ve been saying this…but hopefully the stats here will start making people listen Good post, and yes our #2 target is already on this team between him and Kincaid. People don’t understand the difference between WR2 and the #2 WR. WR2 is a boundary WR, but they doesn’t mean he has to be your second best or most targeted WR. Hill was #1 WR in KC but Kelce a TE was their #2.

Agree, but I mean if Allen played that first season in KC his season would have looked a lot better than it did in Buffalo.

Do you not remember how bad the Bills roster was, especially at the offensive skill positions? Also, 2018 was Mahomes 2nd year where he had 2 full camps, 1 full season under his belt and played in one regular season game already. Plus he had 2 HOF weapons in Hill and Kelce with one of the greatest offensive minds and QB developers in history. Allen had squat...fat KB and a mentally shot Zay Jones who couldn't get open or catch.

Its one thing to bring him back, its another thing to survive cuts end of preseason.

Harbaugh is still interviewing with Falcons...not so sure its a done deal with Chargers yet. Don't forget just how notoriously cheap Spanos can be, so while it seemed likely he would go to Chargers, I am in I will believe it when I see it mode because of Spanos.

Elway got there and lost multiple times before he got there late and won back to back SB's. Manning was in his 9th year before he won one. And the 2nd one that he "won" was more the Broncos won INSPITE of Manning as he sucked all season (31st ranked QB that year) where he almost didn't get his job back from Brock Osweiler, and then had the worst QB performance for a winning team in SB history. Rodgers, Brees, and Young only reached 1 SB (and won it). Those 5 guys are in everyones top 10 all time list and several on in most peoples top 5 all time list. What pisses me off is that Allen gets crucified for not being Mahomes and having "early" SB visits and wins. But what would their careers look like if they swapped places? Guarantee you Allen has multiple Super Bowls too and Mahomes has none. Another thing that pisses me off...everyone said Allen cant be MVP this year because of turnovers and how he has sooo many. Mahomes had 21 turnovers the year he won MVP (Allen only had 1 more this year with 22) and Mahomes had the best WR in football, the best TE in maybe history, a top OL and one of the best offensive coaches in history when he had 21 turnoers and still won MVP. Alles only crime is that he doesn't play for KC and he gets crucified for it. It is so stupid and it is a shame more people can't appreciate how special he really is and just how much fun he is to watch.

How is it dumb though? Who says you cant take a stud WR prospect and still do a defensive heavy draft? We have 10 picks...you listed 1 need on offense while we have many many holes on defense. Have you seen the FA list for the defense? Not to mention Hyde is gone and Poyer isn't a lock to be back either. Tre is probably a cap casualty too, Von is no longer Von, AJE could be out the door leaving us with no DE's. Our defense was by far the biggest reason we lost to KC because of some injuries. Now imagine how bad our defense will be if we strip 6 to 8 other significant contributors from it next season.

Whose playing Safety then? Hyde is gone and Poyer could be a cap cut. Who do you need to replace on offense? We are set at QB, TE, and RB. Mostly set on the OL. Just need a couple WR's and at least one can come in FA. So where are you spending most of your 10 picks on offense at? Biggest need on offense is WR. Biggest need on defense is we need at least 1, possibly 2 safeites, help at DL, Edge, and CB. Its crazy to go offensive heavy this draft unless you want the worst defense in the league next year.

We are definitely going to be going defensive heavy....we will still be addressing WR in the draft for sure, and probably early. Could even take 2 WR's...but overall, this will need to be a defensive heavy draft. No we actually didn't but thats a very popular myth around here.

No still not correct...you take the 4 point lead, doesn't matter the down.

I like 7 teams getting in, but I don't like only the 1 seed gets a bye which I feel is too strong an advantage for a single team, especially if the 2 and 1 are on path to play in the AFCCG in terms of how the bracket flows. When you consider many times the 1 and 2 seedings are separated by tie breakers, it is kind of a crazy advantage for one team who won the same amount of games to have. So to be honest I am torn...and I do think a bye should happen for the top seed or seeds, so I don't like 8 teams where no one gets a bye. So its either 6 or 7...so I would probably lean going back to 6 even though I do think 7 teams is more fun.

THIS. This was my take from the video, even Davis looks stunned he is getting crap from classless fans in a game he didn't even play in. I mean dude played hard for this team regardless of what people think about his ability as a WR2. He has been a "dawg" as Beasley alluded too for this team since he got here in how he played, especially in his tenacity in blocking as a WR too. Im ready for a change at WR2 like many people are, but Gabe has been nothing but a model citizen and selfless teammate. He did not at all deserve this kind of harassment from some idiot fans. And mark my words, those fans are f-ing idiots. While I think a change at WR2 will be good for both Davis and this team, I don't know why anyone feels he deserves this kind of ridicule and hostility. I wish him well wherever he lands.

And we lose if you dont convert vs taking a 4 point lead with under 2 minutes left in the game. 100% of the time you take the points and lead, especially when that lead is greater than a FG. Now the opponent has to go the length of the field and convert a TD in order to take the lead or win the game with under 2 min to go and only 2 timeouts. And KC was missing their best receiving weapon in Rice too making that harder and was having to rely on receivers who has shown to be unreliable catching the ball including dropping multiple game losing passes this season. Your odds of winning the game are substantially higher taking a 4 point lead vs remaining in a losing position with and putting yourself in a must have 4th down conversion against one of the best defenses in the NFL. I mean the math on that is not even close given the immense amount of variables involved. How many of you would be on here saying that Allen made a mistake taking the TD had Allen and Shakir actually connected? I am gonna guess nobody would be saying he should have not taken the TD and instead gambled on getting one later. The correct choice is always the choice you would make regardless of its success or failure on the play. And the mathematically the best odds of winning there are take the 4 point lead vs force a 3rd and 3 while still down 3 and still 25 yards or so away from the endzone.

Better question…how many times have you actually known that’s not the truth vs just making up your reality opposite of all known facts?

This isn’t correct in this situation. That’s playing to try and not lose, not playing to win. Down 3 where a TD puts you up 4 and makes the other team have to drive the field, you 100% take the TD. So what if we get 3rd and 3, if we don’t convert then we kick a FG and Mahomes has a minute and a half with at least 1 timeout to WIN THE GAME on just a simple FG. The same Mahomes who twice got a FG at end half in 12 seconds and end of game in 13 seconds on this very Bills team the last 2 seasons. It’s mathematically and statistically incorrect to turn down a 4 point lead there to pick up a few yards and still not be assured of either a first down or even a score. Not to mention every additional play brings more risk of a turnover too. The game plan down three is get a TD at all costs, not risk just tying the game on a FG where the opponent can win with time on the clock to get their own FG. Especially when we struggled on D all night.

What part of Frazier literally saying he is taking a year off because he needs a break is confusing to you about him now a year later taking interviews for a promotion as a HC?

You mean like how you just made that up. Frazier has repeatedly made it very clear why he needed a break and when he made the decision. It had nothing to do with McD pushing him out. But hey, why listen to facts from the sources themselves when you can just manufacture your own narratives right?

Its because the talking heads don't care about facts. They talk about what is easy and what will stir up clicks. Nobody cares about a defensive unit, but they all care about the QB. Talking heads have one format...someone take the pro and the rest take the negatively absurd. So they sound like we are covering all our bases, but really we just want to stir the pot with stupid statements to get people to click the clip or tune in.

I didn't say he never talks to the media, I said he never talks to the media after playoff losses. He declined last week too even in a win. Again, nothing against talking about him, just find it weird so many people try and twist everything he does to make him be someone he has proven he is not.

Just feels like a leap in logic, which is my 2 cents. His brother has been tweeting about getting Diggs to Dallas for years, yet Diggs still signed an extension to stay here. So I just think you are reading too much into Treyvon doing what he has always done since Diggs basically got here where he has been tweeting for his brother to leave Buffalo. Treyvons words don't match Stefon's actions. So feels like a leap to assume this one time they suddenly do.

You know the dumbest part of that complaint is...guess who leads the NFL in yards from passes at or behind the LOS the past 5 years? Mahomes...and by a 2 to 1 marging last I saw over the next closest QB.

So where is your evidence that Stefon...while on the field still...contacted his brother and gave him the OK to tweet that? Did Diggs have a hidden cell phone in his jock to make contact with his brother? Was it sign language signals on TV? Or are you suggesting the two brothers got together prior to the game and said if there is an upset loss go ahead and start the tweeting? I mean...at the very least explain how stefon was involved in those tweets while still on the field when they happened. Otherwise, you are flat out inventing a narrative to support the bias you now have as you so put from your perception of last offseason.

Agreed, especially with how important safety play has been in this defense. I think it is close to a certainty that Hyde is gone and probably retires and Poyer is near the end too even though I think he will play his last year out here next season.
