  1. Amazing what happens when you play defense instead of sitting back and hoping they don't score too many points.
  2. You really don't see the difference between the Chiefs' players making spectacular plays despite NE covering them well and the Chiefs' players making routine catches because the Bills didn't cover them at all? In the Pats game it took the Chiefs 16 seconds to run those two plays because the Patriots made it difficult for them. If we had done the same thing, they would have run out of time. Not to mention that the Bills' coaching staff should have been extra prepared for this moment specifically because the Chiefs had already done this against the Patriots.
  3. McDermott did mention "execution" in his press conference, which in my opinion is a huge cop out when the defensive alignment was basically designed to let KC do exactly what they wanted to do.
  4. Even if Bass messed up the kickoff, there is a world of difference between accidentally causing a touchback and letting Kelce get an uncontested 20 yard catch with 8 seconds left. That's on McDermott and he should have taken responsibility for it, especially considering he called a timeout to get his defense aligned exactly how he wanted it.
  5. That was 2020. They changed the rules in 2021 and the rate went way up.
  6. Onside kicks were recovered 18% of the time this year. So you are way off with your premise. And that's when teams are expecting it. I wouldn't be shocked if that chance doubled with a surprise kick. So it would be a really tough call, but I do think the odds of recovering an onside kick in that situation are better than the odds of stopping the KC offense.
  7. I'll be glad to see Daboll go, but my answer for this poll is Frazier. Go out and hire a DC who has a plan for stopping the young wave of QBs that are about to wreak havoc on the AFC for the next 15 years. Or anyone who will promise to double team Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce with 13 seconds left in a playoff game.
  8. The Chiefs held our WR1 to seven yards. Are we really going to just accept that our coaches can't figure out a way to scheme their defense to keep the opposing WR1 to less than 20x that number? Give me a break. Some team is going to figure out how to effectively double team Hill and we'll just have spent years making excuses for why it's impossible to cover a guy who is 5% faster than the other elite athletes on the field. And before you say, "well double teaming Hill means their other receivers will be 1on1..." Good! I'll take Gabe Davis against Byron Pringle all day long and straight to the Super Bowl. Oh, and by the way, our TE1 was held to 9 yards. So the Chiefs' defense held our top two weapons to 16 yards and our #1 defense let their top two weapons get 246 without even putting up a fight.
  9. He is bad under pressure from 4. Against the blitz he is the best in the league.
  10. What do you mean it doesn't work anymore? We've been watching the Bills give up leads with the prevent defense for years now. It worked exactly like it always does.
  11. Allen makes the entire coaching staff look good. They literally could not have had a worse game plan or game management and somehow Allen did enough to win.
  12. Yeah I'm torn on McDermott. Obviously he completely changed the culture around the Bills and we are legit Super Bowl contenders now. But Josh Allen is most of the reason for the latter. And to lose a game when you're winning with 13 seconds left, the coach has to do multiple things that are monumentally stupid. Like, if you asked me specifically how a team could play those 13 seconds to lose intentionally, it would be exactly what McDermott did.
  13. That's like a wish list of cuts. Except Mitch. He's a good backup QB. And can we add Edmunds to the list please?
  14. Good. He won this game twice despite his offensive coordinator playing like chicken ***** for three quarters. He deserves it.
  15. Are there still people that say it was a forward lateral? It's been 20 years, it's okay to admit it was legal and just another bad coaching error.
  16. I mean, defense still exists, theoretically. Tampa beat this KC team in the Super Bowl with defense. I can almost guarantee you that KC won't have it this easy against any other team they face in the playoffs. In fact, no other team that the Chiefs played against this season performed worse on defense than the Bills just did. So yeah, I'll blame the defense for not managing to play any better than the worst game possible.
  17. This is how I feel. If we had won tonight, I think we would have won it all. The only reason we didn't win is because the coaches sabotaged the game.
  18. Missed kicks happen. Losing when you're up by 3 with 13 seconds left is entirely preventable unless you're a complete imbecile.
  19. The team, more specifically the offense, won this game. The coaches lost it. Three times*
  20. Can't wait for McDermott to reassure us with moral victories.
  21. Hard to say. It looked like the game plan was to not cover Hill or Kelce so he probably wouldn't have made much difference.
  22. How many points did they score in the Super Bowl last year?
  23. Could have played the entire game on offense like we did in the last quarter. And the defense literally could not have performed any worse. Bye Frazier, bye Daboll. This team will win a Super Bowl when you leave.
  24. Maybe next year they'll try to cover Hill and Kelce instead of letting them do whatever they wanted.
