The ask is why not put the ball in the guy who had the best game until that point. Putting Ty Johnson there is almost a give away asking Josh to play hero ball and the KC defense pinned their ears behind the back and came after him successfully.
why should it matter?
The Bills Defense have give up consistently 30+ points to the Chiefs in the playoffs...how does a different DC make a difference. The execution was lacking...there was no pass rush and no ability to contain Mahomes...that has been the story in all the four losses...
Josh was having good connections with Hollins and Shakir down the field and it would have been better to go for that on the 2nd down (the play prior to that). Also not having Cook on the final drive didn't make any sense....Johnson was cold while Cook was having his best day running and CATCHING the football....Throwing a quick side to Cook gets us 5 yards every time....We really OUTSMARTED ourselves in that final drive. (Like we always do)
Joe Thuney is not garbage
true.. Unfortunate that we never got the real Von in the three years he was here. It is really tough when injuries wreck havoc.
People who talk about moving on from McDermott also should give suggestions on who they would like to see hired as the Bills HC? I mean - don't just sit and give your comments, but also on how to fix it.
Would you hire Doug Pederson or get Bellichek on a plane ? Will you go after Chucky ? Are is there one of those magical HC who could take us to the next step...may be get Sean Payton from the Broncos?
Agreed. Too many 4th downs will drain the players as they have to exert significantly on that play.... We also wasted the 2 pt conversion attempts...At the end the game was won by 3 points.
