This is a good analysis of where we lack. Reid and Spags know the recipe for playoff success.
Physical line play, tight coverage and putting your best players on the field on D. Unpredictability on offense and key players showing up when needed. Throughout the season they play playoff brand defense. Maybe at a less elevated level but the style is the basis of their approach. When the playoffs come around they don't have to change, they just elevate their intensity. Playing a smaller volume of D line, during the year, you may see fatigue at times but by they end of the year, they can play with no drop off when fatigued.
The mental aspect of the game is part of how your have been conditioned all year. I think our large rotation on d line can hurt us. You learn to dig deeper and find energy reserves you never knew existed. Your mental preparation will compose you when needed. For the best players the game is in slow motion, they refuse to lose and have played the game mentally over and over. John Wooden's success as a coach was to practice at a speed faster than the game. Be quick but don't hurry. Mental preparation allows for quickness, hurrying creates mistakes and sloppiness. Some coaches just prepare their players better. In the playoffs in a tight game you might hurry limiting your success. If you watch Mahomes, the game is not fast enough for him. When a successful play is needed he fidgets with his fingers asking for the next one quicker. Once he has the call he becomes focused on execution. Is that an example of the player demanding a certain execution from the coach. Don't make me wait for your call, be prepared and get it in. Reid's experience gives him the ability to quickly process the situation and the call. This experience and Mahomes' demeanor blend to their success.
Too often McD will say "I thought we had a good week of practice and the mental preparation was there" only to fail. It's in the systematic foundation that exist where the failure lies. To get over the hump we need to reconsider our approach to the regular season as it prepares you for the playoffs. The Bills have been in the most one score games win or lose over the last several years. Stop playing to keep it close, let your players play outside their comfort zone, coach outside your comfort zone or adapt as needed to gain success.
We are close but something needs to change.
It also won't hurt to implement some of these schemes teams are using that are very successful during the playoffs. At the same time they need to have players that can play those roles instead of cookie cutter scheme types. Mcd is definitely married to his schemes and won't back away from them no matter how bad they get cooked in meaningful games. As much I hope Babich changes some of our philosophies on defense it just seems like he's an extension of Mcd and his schemes and will operate the status quo.

Seattle's defense was schematically very similar to ours and one of the most defensively dominant Superbowls of all time.
I don't think it has anything to do with running the wrong scheme. It is just about talent and execution.
Yes they were the difference is they played a ton more man to man then we do and we're much much more physical them us as well. Remember they played that clutch and grab style in the secondary that year they lead the league in penalties.

Andy Reid should have thanked McDermott on the podium after each of their Super Bowl victories.
McDermott did an outstanding job helping the Chiefs create their dynasty while at the same time being a thorn in our side.
As I mentioned in another post, if Brandon Bean did not pull out all of the stops to get Josh and if Josh had not developed the way he has, McDermott would have been fired a long time ago and would be remembered as the guy who traded the pick so that the Chiefs could draft Mahomes.
McDermott should be VERY thankful that Josh is on the team.
I was thinking the same thing last night while the Chiefs were at the podium. That would've been legendary! 😂

Pressure makes diamonds that's a quote Mcd likes to use at times. I believe he uses it in reference to team building and competition but there's much more to it. The Chiefs are the newest example of this and they know and have the recipe.
I hate to say it the Chiefs are just better then everyone else they have the mentality the physicality and the strategy the Bills are lacking. They pressure u at nearly every level even when they punt they can't lose. Townsend was backed up multiple times last night and threw out the playoffs only to boot the ball 70yds in the air and flip the field position.
Mentality - The Chiefs play every down like it's the last and don't let up every inch on that field is a physical fight some might think that fumble on the punt return was luck but they created that luck by not letting up not taking that play for granted they create there luck every step of the way. From Sneed punching out the ball from Zay Flowers hands at the goal line to Chris Jones getting timely pressures and sacks to even there no name role players making huge contributions they all have that mentality that there going to make the plays when they need it most. This is also something that many other Superbowl winners shared from the Pats to the Steelers to the Seahawks over the last 20 or so years.
Strategy - Andy Reid and Spags will probably go down as the best Coaching combo in the history of the game or at least in the discussion as one of them. The defense that Spags imploys is a Superbowl ingredient no doubt about it. From the Pats, Steelers, Broncos , Ravens and many more over the last 20yrs many championships were won with this strategy a man to man hybrid defense with hands on Wrs
How many teams do we have to watch win Superbowls till we implement this strategy?
The Pats were masters at this and KC ain't to far behind in that regard as there corners and safeties are constantly redirecting Wrs routes by holding clutching grabbing pushing using arm locks at times and by doing this it gives there Dline more time to get pressure it's brilliant and many teams haven't caught on to this yet. I like to call it a net positive they know they will be called for it here and there but overall the refs will let it pass way more times then they call it.
Offensively Andy Reid is a Bill Walsh tree West coast offense protege and over the yrs he's tinkered with that offense and has mastered his abilities to call the right plays for the defenses that there seeing it absolutely helps him that he has a general like Mahomes leading his offense that can make plays off script when it's necessary. Otherwise they have answers for nearly every defense u can throw at them. Last night was even more scary because Mahomes actually looked like Brady dissecting the defense and making it look real easy with pitch and catch plays. He looked like a master game manager and used his legs when it mattered most. Nothing to shiny about that just pitch and catch knowing were the weakness in the zones were. Remember Wilks is a Mcd protege. I wasn't shocked to see the 49ers secondary back up in OT on that 2nd and 14 I felt like I was watching a classic Mcd meltdown defense right in front of my eyes.
Physicality - The Chiefs are built for a brawl from the oline to the running backs to the special teams and defense there team size is massive. There really not that fast as a team overall but they wear down there opponents all game long using there physical advantages. Not only are they physically imposing but they also play like it. Last night's game kind of reminded me of a heavyweight boxing match in which we saw the Chiefs cruise threw the first half while the 49ers looked like they emptied the tank. The Chiefs definitely imposed there will on the 49ers in 2nd half and in OT and took over the game. This all comes from whatever Andy Reid is doing to keep his team in top shape and from experience in big games knowing how to pace themselves. Got to give credit where it's due the Chiefs are built for Success.
To finalize there seems to be a common denominator when it comes to winning titles in the NFL and other sports as well. Most of the teams that have won in this era are very similar in schemes and concepts and in physical and mental prowess. I believe the Bills are on the path offensively to having such advantages. We seen us morph into a more balanced offense in the last several weeks of the yr and hopefully this off-season Brady can add a few weapons for Josh and implement more schemes to get Wrs open and to open up a even more devastating running game that can flourish towards the end of the year. Defensively I believe we are pretty far off schematically from the formula I stated above because we run more of a zone defense although there's been some success with that scheme in winning titles the teams that won had devastating pass rushes that can get home using only 4 rushers the Colts, Buccaneers (2004), Giants & Rams (2000) had those devastating pass rushes and we are far from having one . With that being said there's way more man to man defenses that have won and they didn't need the top notch talent on the Dline to get it done either. With all that being said obviously there's other factors that come into play in winning a Superbowl but I wanted with this post to be more about the philosophy and not the positions of the players that help win a title because there's all kinds of examples of teams winning with all kinds of different strengths positionally. I would argue that other then QB a team just needs another 2-3 difference makers to win it all and it really doesn't matter what position they play.

I mean you literally have to ignore and throw out whatever the regular season ranking was for our defense. It's all meaningless once the playoffs start. That #1 or #3 ranked defense turns to mush real fast. Other than Taron's pic6, I can't remember one critical stop by our defense in 10 playoff games. Pathetic, no wonder Andy fired his ass.
Can't really argue close to 37 points against in elimination games . Could've been worse if Cinny didn't take the foot of our throat last yr. Is there really anything else we can say?

We’ve known that the Bills have had one of the most talented rosters and have had good depth since 2020. We have also seen that they can hang with KC. They’ve really only been blown out by them once in the 7 games they’ve played.
I’m thinking that the reason the bills can’t get past the chiefs (and bengals) is because Buffalo keeps finding themselves in a mid season slump. They then have to spend the next several weeks retooling their offense and getting out of the slump, meanwhile battling for playoff positioning and the division against tough teams. By the time they get to the playoffs they’re already burnt out from fighting up hill battles.
in 2020 they were the #1 seed most of the season and lost to the Chiefs, titans and the hail Murray game right in the middle of the season and finished as the 2nd seed.In 2021 we had inexcusable losses to the titans, jags and the colts and had to battle our way to the 3rd seed
in 2022 we had the loss to the jets and the Minnesota debacle and then had fight our way to the 2nd seed again
in 2023 we started off great. Had some injuries. Then played dumbed down football against teams like the patriots and broncos. Then had to go through murderers row to end the season as the 2nd seed once again.
The bills need to take care of business in the mid part of the season and get the 1 seed. We all know McDermott is great coming off the bye and the rest would benefit the Bills mentally and physically.
It’ll happen boys. Stay patient. Trust the process!
I think the Bills are missing key difference makers . Can u honestly say we have a Jones or Kelce or Chase & Hendrickson? Yes we have the QB but are missing the other components. That's what's making the difference in the playoffs other then Mcd blowing games.

Remember when Buffalo traded the pick that was used to draft Mahomes to Kansas City because McDermott couldn’t draft a QB until Beane got there?
The Bills weren’t outcoached last year in the playoffs. They were punched in the face by a team that was bigger, faster, and stronger than they were. I totally disagree with the notion that Beane has built a Super Bowl caliber roster over the past three seasons. Given that this thread is about hurdling KC, when is the last time Beane drafted better than Veach? The disparity in drafting over the last 3 years is enormous.
Yes we were definitely outcoached and outclassed last yr vs the Bengals. The Bills had a game plan built for a dome and the Bengals were ready for a snow fight!

beating the chiefs is 100 % on the defense.
Mcdermott's group comes up short every year, low scoring games, high scoring games...doesn't matter his defense comes up small.
and now they are essentially starting over on the defensive line which will take up precious resources, replacing precious resources that have already been spent on the defensive line.
it feels like mcdermott is in the same spot tony dungy was in when he was in tampa...he just had no answers and could not get over the hump.
hopefully they have an A+ draft and find some productive players in mid level free agency.
So far their answer to the defense not getting over the hump was to overpay for von miller who then was injured and is not the same player anymore and they are stuck with him. He was supposed to be their charles haley, reggie white or jevon kearse to get them over the hump and he has been an expensive dud.
They have dug quite a hole with the roster defensively and with a bad contract to miller. I am not sure how you rebuild an entire defensive line in one offseason.
We got to swallow those bad contracts this yr if I'm Beane I'm not touching Von, Diggs or Knox deals.
We also shouldn't resign any of our free agents that are near or over 30. We need to have a great draft with 10 pks were gonna need 7 guys that contribute in some fashion whether in a depth role , special teams and hopefully at least 3 starters this yr and more in 25 . It's time for a roster reset especially on the back end of the roster were we need more cheap players under contract.
The only players we should sign that will cost anywhere from 7-10 mil per season is a couple of young safeties in free agency it's a loaded yr for that and maybe a DT1 otherwise the rest of the signings should be dust settle minimum wage vets.
This is a great opportunity for the Bills to get younger as a team and to rebuild the Dline but the problem like u said is how do we trust Mcd to build a Dline that he's already proven he couldn't build with massive assets.

The Bills can beat the Chiefs. They have done it alot. Just not in the postseason. And two of those games came down to the wire.
I believe it's coaching that wins KC the playoff games. Which is why realistically 2024 is McD's last chance. Anything short of a conference title game, I think he is out. I still can't forgive him for "13 seconds". That still stings.
This team needs a HC to push them over the hump. Belichick would improve this D. And we already have the QB.
I hope your right but most likely if Mcd has the same season next year he'll be back .

The only way Cook even sniffs the level of production Kamara achieved is by holding onto the damn ball. He's never going to be a power back who runs violently or breaks tackles. He's all finese. But if he can find focus & concentration, he most definitely can reach the accomplishments Alvin achieved.
Kamara was physical as well I remember him bouncing of multiple sure tackles in his prime.

Cook only had 8 broken tackles the whole year. He's a product of the system if we get a better more conventional back we would be much better at running the ball. We all seen Cook wear down at the end of the season he's not a workhorse back even his college coaches knew this why don't the Bills?
Harris had 2 brkn tackles on 23 touches compared to Cook 8 on 325. Cook was tied for 36 in the NFL in that category even though he had more touches then 90% of the players on that list. That's awful we need a bigger stronger back. Cook is better suited for a Gibbs type role getting 10-12 touches a week. We need a true workhorse to carry the load.

Maybe I am crazy but I remember Romo talking about how the Bills were using them in the Chiefs game.
In theory, I think it makes the most sense for our current personnel, even if we go out and draft a stud WR to be our #2. In my mind, the three most dynamic weapons Josh had last year were Shakir, Kincaid and Cook. If two out of your three are RB and TE, condensed formation lets defenses pick their poison and then you can motion Kincaid or Cook to get an advantage.
We were also much better running out of these formations I believe Cook averaged a whopping 1.5 yds more per run then when we ran out of shotgun.
Josh is also a killer when it comes to play action. He's probably the best in the league at it. The problem is once Brady took over we ran a lot less play action I wonder why.
I hope that Brady keeps using these west coast offense concepts next season use more play action like the Rams and 49ers do.

I think the issue is expecting the man to put on another 20lb. Who knows if he even can manage himself at that weight.
also, the thought of him playing in a limited role is worrisome considering we would be spending a 2nd or 3rd rd pick on him. Would much rather get someone who’s just massive and better against the run to start. At least we know they could hold down a position of need. Instead of finding a backup to a player we already have and would rather not take off the field if we can manage that. But that is one of McDs weaknesses, he has this infatuation with a steady rotation on the DL instead of just sticking with his best players or hot players. It’s a problem for him imo.
Mcd has shown us in these 7 yrs that's he's not gonna change much. He loves his Dline rotation and he loves having old vets on the team especially at running back he loves having a old man in the bk field from Tolbert to Gore to Murray. I'm not a big fan of his rotations myself most teams have a top 4 that plays most of the game .
When it comes to Jenkins Jr he can add some weight maybe not 20 lbs but 10 for sure that would put him at 315lbs and it's not just the weight that matters it's adding strength. He's got power already just needs some work with technique and anchoring. I think the kid can become a flat out beast a pro bowl type player.

I’d be fine with any of the 3 WRs too.
I love jenkins- I’m just wondering where his fit is on this team. Can he play 1T or is he Ed’s backup? I question whether or not he can be a “good” 1T. Seems more like a 3T or a big 5T minus the pass rush ability.
That's a good question he is good vs the run but can he anchor against double teams with consistency? He has the size and power also has the lateral movement skills. I believe he can play some 1T but not on every down especially to start his career he would have to be a rotation player but by year 2 if he adds 20lbs to his frame he can be a dominant 1T.
I believe he can play at least 50% of snaps to start his career. He can definitely line up at the 3 on passing downs and also back up Oliver the 35% of the downs he's not on the field. We seen the Bills use Tim Settle as a 1T as a rotation player although most here felt he was better suited for the 3T. I believe Kris Jenkins is already a much better player then Settle ever was .

I also believe Thomas will be gone before we pick. I do believe he has it to be a #1 however. Someone will get a really good player there imo.
I think Franklin is very good. Would like him there at 28. I think there’s a good chance he’ll be there. Will depend on how FA and then the draft falls for teams in need of a WR. if we’re lucky enough to grab him it’ll be fantastic.
I also like Polk. Very good looking tape. Could be that guy for sure. And I don’t think there’s a reason he wouldn’t be there. Might even be able to trade down a few spots for extra picks and take him. Not sure it’ll be worth it to chance it but will have to see how the board plays out in draft day.
I think with Franklin being there at 28 it’ll depend on how some guys perform at the combine and who might come out of nowhere to jump in front of him. By all accounts, at the senior bowl Legette and his stock took a dump. But if he lights it up at the combine there’s a chance he climbs back up. He’s one guy I want to stay away from imo. At least in the first round. Probably the 2nd for me also. But it’ll depend on what we do before that and who’s left at that point.
after Polk I like Mitchell a lot. Walker a lot. Worthy too but we’d still need a physically demanding receiver along with him. He’s just too slim to be a #1 imo. Dream scenario is if something like Franklin in the 1st, somehow someone like Sweat makes it to the 2nd. Then trade up into the early-mid 3rd for Worthy and be set at those positions for a while.
I got Franklin, Leggette, Mitchell as the guys I would love to see us get. I don't care that Leggette had 1 bad day and 1 good day at the senior bowl. Players like Deebo, AJ Brown and DK Metcalf weren't finished products by any means coming out and that's why they went in the 2nd Rd of the draft but look all 3 are basically super stars in the NFL. I believe if the Bills see that type of player in Leggette in have no problem with them drafting him in the late first Rd.
Btw have u ever looked at Kris Jenkins Jr at DT? Man he's a beast I would love to add him at #60. His father was an absolute stud in the NFL I can see Jr having even a better career then him.

How you guys feeling on James Cook as a number 1 back? With Brady taking over full time James Cook should see an increase workload. Fumbles and drops have been an issue with him though. I still think he’s too small to be an every down back. Personally I would like to see use him like Detroit uses Gibbs and find a quality #2. I like Ty Johnson but could we find better?
Couldn't agree with u more he needs to be used like Gibbs. He also needs some serious time working on the jugs machine this off-season as well as working with Josh Allen and getting there timing down.
Cook is not built for 325 touches maybe 200-240 the most but anything over that is to much. He wore down towards the end of the season and his play dropped drastically. He can use another 5-10 lbs of muscle but on that frame not sure its douable.
I truly believe Cook season was not necessarily because he's great at RB but because he's a product of Josh Allen and fact that we see less 6 man boxes then any team in the NFL not only that but the oline was awesome this season. Now I won't take away from him that he did get much better last off-season and that he'll probably even get better this off-season but I'm a true believe if the Bills had an elite RB he would be much better and would make more of a difference for us then Cook had vs the Chiefs in the playoffs. Now does that mean we should try to sign Barkley? I'm not on board with that because of his price but that shouldn't hold the Bills back from trying to find a better player in the mid to late rds of the draft or to bring in someone to compete with him via free agency.

I totally agree on Franklin and I see your points on Thomas but I do think there is room to grow with him because he’s such a rare talent (unlike Hyatt who was slim and just a one trick pony last year). Polk is the guy I don’t think will be a #1. He’s an awesome #2 even on Washington’s squad but he’s not great at separating because he’s an average athlete. He’s got great hands which I love and can make the contested catch but he’s not the elite 1 we need even though I’d take him as a 2 all day
I believe Franklin will be better then Thomas as well especially for the Bills. Franklin runs much better routes and he's only 20 yrs old which means to me that he works harder at his game or he's just more coachable either way that's a great sign because he'll get better at the next level. He also has a great feel from I what I seen on tape for finding soft spots in zone coverage he gives me Justin Jefferson feel to his game. Add to it that he's very fast and also uses different speeds while running routes I just feel like he's more nuanced in his game and when I found out he's only 20 yrs old that made me feel that much better about him. I also feel like he can add 10-12 lbs to his 178lb frame within 2 yrs and that will help him with his yac and getting off jams vs physical Wrs . He's gonna need that added weight and strength because one of his weaknesses is getting re-routed by physical corners but once he develops more he will be a top notch Wr in the NFL.

I said “after” next season. Meaning he will be here next year with Shakir to show the ropes to the incoming rookies and still be the de facto “#1” guy this coming season. I believe mostly because of his contract, and hopefully because we hit on a couple great rookie WRs, that next year will be his last in Buffalo. It’s not a bash on Diggs, it’s just a smart way to do business. We shouldn’t be held to the fire every year to solely depend on one WR being our main contributor on offense. I love what GB has done and believe we should do the same and this is the perfect draft class to do it in
I’m on board with this thinking and I like dunervay a lot, if he’s not expensive but I’m not hamstringing us to say ONLY 2 WRs in this draft. It’s a loaded class so if we get 3 or 4 then they must be pretty awesome and displace guys that shouldn’t be on the team, regardless of their previous draft status like Shorter. Get the best players at the cheapest cost to help Josh out, that’s itI can see Duvernay signing a 3yr 12mil deal i think that's fair for a top flight KR)PR with a small role on offense.

Disagree this is a very deep WR class. 2 WRs at the very least, screw FA WRs. Shakir is the only guy guaranteed to be a contributor at WR after next year on our team right now. Shorter isn’t an NFL WR (hope I’m wrong) and in this draft (and honestly even last year he shouldn’t have been) and wouldn’t be drafted before the 7th. I love Diggs but who knows what his future will be. It’s time to get younger and throw a lot at one of the deepest positions in the class. No reason to just plug holes in a class that doesn’t have great depth or talent at DL or S. Those positions just patch those holes with FA options for now and readdress later if need be. With great talent or average talent the D will still be what it is under McD in the playoffs. We win a Super Bowl because of Josh and this is the time to get Josh all the help he needs (maybe a couple years too late) and the perfect class to do it
I can basically guarantee u that Diggs will be back. He just started a 4yr extension nobody has ever signed an extension and was cut or traded before it even starts. To much cap ramifications especially for a team that already has cap problems. Draft 2 Wrs this yr and next yr u still have the flexibility to add another Wr in the draft . If u draft 3 this yr u can forget that possiblity.
Adding 2 Wrs in the draft would give us 4 wrs that can play . I rather give the 2 rookies more snaps then have to share it with 3. It's already hard enough for rookie Wrs to develop the more snaps they get the better.
There's also free agency hopefully we can add Devin Duvernay from Ravens to be our Wr #5 & KR/PR guy. I believe Duvernay can play a Deebo type role for us he has the skill set to get him involved on Jet Sweeps, Wr Screens , Slants & RB plays. The Ravens would use Duvernay in that role and he flourished but this last yr with the new coordinator they didn't use him much in that capacity.

If we came out of the draft with Troy Franklin 1st round, Ladd McConkey 2nd, BPA (hopefully S and DL) 3rd and 4th round and then nab Luke mcCaffrey in the 5th I’d be out of my mind ecstatic. Josh is the hands down favorite for MVP the next few years lol
That's over board we need 2Wrs tops in this draft.

Very solid thoughts and ideas, but again it boils down to "we don't know what we don't know"
Right now, yes looks like a meager FA with the cap space. But when it's all said and done they will make moves and open money for who they want.
As you say this draft is deep at WR, which is why I'm ok if they wait until round 2 to fill that spot with someone that fits well. I think we see them sign someone like Darnell Mooney. Not top level, but a guy that has had 1,000 hard season before and has had some issues since. Could be a bargain. And (not that they are players I advocate for) I still can't shake the feeling that guys like Donovan Peoples-Jones and Devin Duvernay will be on their radar as well.
As far as moves they can make that would change our draft needs, there's still room for that as well especially with the round 4-7 picks.
Mooney only if he's cheap if his salary reaches past 6mil I'm out on that rather play a rookie in front of him for cheap let him work out his bumps threw out the season just like Rice in KC this last season.
I would love Duvernay as a kick return / punt return spealist that plays the Deebo role on offense. Give him some handoffs, Wr screens & Jet Sweeps he's very dangerous doing those things and defenses have to account for him when he's on the field. I truly believe the Ravens didn't use Duvernay the right way and there's some hidden impact there with him. A 3mil a yr deal would be ideal for him.
