Yes- and you know who else has had bad coaching moments in the playoffs? Sean McDermott- and it’s reason we are talking about this.
just so happens McD has proven to be able to beat Reid and Mahomes on a regular basis. While the guy you’re opining for has a .000 winning percentage against them. The reason he has 2 Super Bowl appearances under his belt is because he doesn’t have to face Mahomes in the conference playoffs.
Your only defense is “but the QB”. Yes, McDermott has helped develop a super talented raw prospect into the best player in the league. Shanny had a chance to develop a similar prospect and he’s now a bum. Who knows what would’ve happened if he had Allen. Would he have failed in developing him like he did with Lance? We don’t know- McDermott developed Allen- and succeeded.
The only ammo you are bringing to this gunfight is “but shanny doesn’t have Josh Allen”. You’re right, he doesn’t. And we’ll never know what he can do with him. But we can pretend ….and that will tell us who’s right…… and if you don’t pretend- then you’re a hostile coward 🤣
the offensive guru that doesn’t have the offensive horse he needs to win it all vs the defensive guru that doesn’t have the horse he needs to win it all.
McD is a defensive HC that has put the majority of his resources into the D. Those defenses have been ravaged with injuries the last 2 seasons (3 if you include not having our best player, cornerback, in the 13 sec debacle). We can pretend to know how good McDs defenses would’ve been with bosa, armstead, Hargrave, warner and co. We know he can make lemonade out of lemon DBs.
but none of that matters….. it’s fantasy land. What we KNOW is McDermott HAS actually had much better success vs reid and Mahomes than shanny. In fact, he’s the only one of the two to have ANY success vs Reid and Mahomes. But Josh Allen….. which brings us back to fantasy land.
