    Lol, than he shouldn't have used Klein, no? Was there or was there not other options, players, game plan etc, he's the defensive mastermind right?

    In past games against the chefs they used Neal to cover kelce. One game he was pretty good another iirc he got called for a bunch of penalties, some questionable and Kelce had better day.  Why wait until the second half to use Neal when it was clear Klein was struggling early in the game. There was a few things McDermott could have changed earlier to slow them down but he briefly tried Williams and that was it for a while.

    The decision to go for that play is on McDermott. But A LOT of critique here is on HOW the play was run. McDermott coaches the ST now? He sets up the formations and assignments in ST? Thats news to...well...literally everyone. 

     

    Are we going to blame McD for Billy Buffalo not getting his suit drycleaned before the game now? Can we PLEASE keep the arrows aimed at McD to the ones he actually has responsibility for taking? 

    He’s the head coach. The entire team is his responsibility.

    Sorry if this has been posted

     

    Had to listen the 2nd quarter on radio

     

    On the Bills first punt of the game Mayock clearly hints that he expects a fake from the Bills

     

    first question - wth would we tip off a media personality?

     

    second question - why would Mayock open his mouth, any Chiefs affiliate personal listening would have a chance to relay this info, no?

    If you understand what you’re looking at you can tell when something is different. Theres a decent amount of the Bills offensive plays that I can call out what’s gonna happen just by looking at the formation, how players line up and the motion.

    Depending on how his medicals look, I'd offer him something like a 3yr/$18M with $10M guaranteed. Might be worth bringing him back as a $6M guy who can be easily cut. Definitely not at his current $16M price tho.

    Idk if I do that. I love him as a person and the player he was but at his age with his injuries I move on.
     

    Also who wants to listen to half the board lose their mind when he comes back and takes time to get back to normal if he can even get back there. Von is pretty much on a normal timeline and people are losing their minds.

    Bye Gabe. The hand is waving.

    There was no way Diggs was getting the first down on that play. Assuming the pass is accurate with the blow from Dawkins, and assuming Diggs actually catches it, that option was getting 4 or 5 yards max. They would still be facing a 3rd and medium while trying to preserve a FG attempt.

    There wouldn’t have been a blow from Dawkins as the ball would have been out earlier and it was getting 5 yards minimum. Mcduffie peeled off but there was room to run. If diggs puts his foot in ground and goes straight upfield contact would have been made at about 5 yards from LOS, Diggs has broken or avoided a decent amount of tackles this year. If he sprints to sideline he possibly gets the first or more.

    That was the 14th play of the drive. That’s an eternity by NFL standards.


    Taking the score there is fine.

     

    Otherwise we’re saying “you know what the Bills really needed? A 20 play drive” that’s just not reasonable. 

    They marched up and down the field on the chefs most of the game. Another 2-3 plays is unreasonable?

    Going up 4 vs. 3 is an entirely different  scenario. If 
     

    I have no problem with taking a shot to a WIDE OPEN receiver in the end zone in this situation. Especially on 2nd down. 
     

    people arguing the check down to Diggs are really arguing they want to milk the clock and settle for overtime. That’s the mentality. Milk the clock, play conservative and kick a 28 yard Fg after going ultra conservative in the red zone after picking up the first down to Diggs. 
     

    so play for overtime. A loser mentality. 

    The mentality is drain the clock as much as you can and score a TD with little to no time left for the chefs to score. So a pretty much a redo of 13 seconds but they need a TD not a FG. If you don’t get the td you still have chance at the tie on a shorter FG for your struggling kicker with little to no time left. 


    We see where the way you wanted got us. A loss. So wouldn’t that be a losers mentality?

    6 games and 58 mins of this game he check downs but the last 2 mins of the most important game you're saying he got sugar high josh and decided nah, running the clock isn't my gig i want the tuddy?  sorry i don't believe that's what happened at all.

    Cool. So what do you believe? Aliens did it? Cigarette smoking man was on sidelines? Adam Sandler?

    I think he got hit but I still don't disagree. 

     

    My main point was I would have used Allen's legs the rest of the way. It was successful all game.

     

    And yes Josh could have just run it himself.

     

    I think the inability for the defensive line to get an ounce of pressure on Mahomes and the Diggs/Sherfield drops cost us the game so I don't want to put too much on those last 3 playcalls.

    He did get hit a little as he was making the throw.

    i watched it for over an hour AFTER THE GAME rewinding it, cannot be explained.  scoring the TD doesn't win the game so either the coaches or Josh decided to try and not win the game... it's not complicated.  1st down wins at worst ties the game... but instead do everything except that.

     

    inexplicable

    What are you carrying on about? You saw what happened. You watched it for hours but still here asking what happened. You saw it. I’m going to put it on Josh because he makes the final decision on where the ball goes and I highly doubt Brady was in his ear before the mic turned off to throw it to the end zone. Josh has shown time and time again that he makes idiotic decisions with the ball at times. Why there’s the phrase Sugar rush Josh. Hero ball is thrown around(I don’t think that throw was a hero ball, just not the correct read) it happens and we all wonder what he was thinking. Then he makes an amazing throw and we forget all about it.

    Once we got to the 2 minute warning (and the play before), the only play I may have called was a Josh run. Worst case scenario is it drains clock and/or forces the chiefs to use a timeout and gives Bass a shorter field goal. Best case wss he continued having success and drained the clock leading to a game winning TD.

     

    Or I throw a simple short route to Kincaid 

     

    Joe Brady called a great game but I didn't love the last 3 plays

    Joe Brady called a play that had multiple open receivers. Josh chose the wrong throw.

    the goal there is to get a 1st down, like who on the football planet of earth doesn't know the goal is to get a 1st down????  you likely do not win the game if you score a TD with more than 10 seconds on the clock, cause the defense has to be accepted as inadequate so you run the clock out that's all there is to it and they literally did all of the wrong possible things lol.  make me believe it.

    Make you believe what? That Josh makes poor decisions at times? You shouldn’t need someone to make you believe that. Your eyes should see it every season. He’s inconsistent with decision making and has been most of his career. He will have amazing stretches of play along with boneheaded decisions.

    Though do you take the TD when the opportunity presents itself, rather than check down because there might be a chance on the next set of downs?

     

    I don’t know. I feel Josh carried the Bills all night and am split whether he let us down in the end. Can see the arguments from both sides.

    Can be both. He did carry us but he also did make some poor decisions. I don’t put the loss on him though. This was a team loss.

    Does anyone have video of that play??

    I do not.

    I think the Diggs or Shakir option is a toss up which one is the one to take. As others have said, who knows if Diggs would have dropped it anyway? Or fumbled? Or there would be a tipped interception on the next play? Where the opportunity is there to try for a TD, should it be taken?

    Who knows if Shakir drops it or tips it for pick if the throw got there. You can say what ifs for any and everything. The Bills were trying to bleed the clock. Scoring there would give the chefs the ball with plenty of time and timeouts when we can’t stop them. Throwing to Diggs was the correct play if you’re sticking to the plan they had all game.

    curious:

    entire game play more or less run the clock out football including up to the 2 min warning.  2 min warning change the game plan, miss a wide open diggs in the flat to run more clock out, get a first down?

     

    in a game where the defense is unlikely to stop the chiefs the coaches and the qb all forget and start throwing?

     

    I don't believe anyone on this board with an honest football acumen can sit here and say those were the best 3 plays of football in the year when they needed the best 3 plays.  that was some of the worst play calling and the worst execution other than adam sandlering it and chucking a pick.

     

    it makes zero sense in the context of the game, 13 seconds, the game plan, all of it.

    The play calls were fine. They were designed to continue to run clock. The execution was the problem. Josh went away from the plan and went for end zone instead of moving the chains and running more clock. Reminds me of when he rolled his eyes when Tom Brady was talking about taking what defense gives you.

    Just sums up the Bills luck. I said it last night - they got Josh and Diggs. What did the Chiefs and Vikings get in return? Mahomes and Jefferson. Typical.

     

    Saying that, IMO Mahomes is no better than Josh. Switch them around and I still think the Bills would have lost last night, dare I say by a slightly bigger margin. 

    While Josh played well for most part I think mahomes takes the diggs throw instead of throwing it to Shakir in end zone as we wanted to run clock there and not score right away giving the chefs time to score. If that happens I think the Bills win. Mahomes understands that part of the game where Allen fights it.
