Correct I would expect the one game sample size teams to regress toward the mean

We've seen Milano on Kelce and it wasn't different

I'll rephrase if it makes you feel better Heck I'll even use a euphemism 'the Bills playoff defense has been the single greatest contributing factor to their lack of success' argue away

I'm going to assume this is accurate...and if so I don't even see how it's arguable anymore The only teams whose defenses perform worse than ours regular season-->postseason are sadsack AFC teams unlucky enough to get blasted by either us or KC (or both) and tomato can NFC wildcard fodder

I don't see the significance of 18mins like you apparently do Again the Chiefs went like 29mins w out scoring in the Super Bowl Here's a thought experiment for you- put our offense or even heck just Allen on the Bengals or Niners or Ravens and does KC have their current dynasty? I say clearly not The flip side is give those teams our defense and KC is going for the 5peat this yr 😂😂We put the Pats and Colts up there

You realize the Chiefs didn't score the entire second half of the AFCCG vs Ravens? It happens ffs

i know you don't want to hear it but it's true here are the postseason offensive and defensive averages broken down into ppg and yards/play with where they would rank respectively according to last year's regular season in parentheses: Offense- 26.9 ppg (5th) and 5.82 ypp (5th) Defense- 24.8 ppg (30th) and 5.75 ypp (30th) It's not too much to ask of a defensive specialist HC to provide something other than bottom of the league type of defensive production in the playoffs. i'm not saying he can't or won't figure it out eventually. but it's glaringly obvious and has been for some time now tbh where we lack when the playoffs roll around

Of course it is

strong esp for a jets fan

So when Mahomes' numbers go down when he's light on weapons does that mean he isn't as good?

for me it's burrow and by a mile...nobody thinks Hurts is the second best QB in the league the legend of joe burrow is primarily the product of a playoff defense that holds teams to under 19ppg while he throws for 260 yards/game

they had to pay Tua so let's not include that in the calculus. nobody is getting rid of the league's passing leader i can accept that they might have bitten off more than they can chew w Waddle's deal but the idea that you don't want great players (who are always going to be the most expensive) on your team is for the birds

burrow's postseason stats are fine but nothing to write home about in that spirit i nominate joe burrow as the most overrated player in the league

27/6 td-turnover ratio

Are you saying Miami hasn't won a playoff game because they paid Tyreek Hill?

I'd argue the Chiefs game was most indicative of what style of offense they want to run this upcoming season

Those numbers would put him as a top 1 TE

Average age of this message board got to be like what, 55+ right Asking the wrong people lol

I changed my.mind I'm 50/50 on McDermott now but I know 100% I am kicking @Royale with Cheeseass

i think his catches and targets go up but y/r goes down 82 catches on 109 targets, 740 yards and 5TDs

i legit did not know about that rule 👍 can't remember seeing it called before?

you are allowed to initiate contact below waist if the guy is not yet engaged

I can sympathize w the guy who said it was dirty tbh I mean yes, it's a legal block- but that's also playaction not rpo so Teller knows the RBs not getting the ball, the DE is clearly crashing down on RB...you don't need to cut the guy there especially knowing he's about to be engaged high and likely getting his lower body stuck looks like the timing between QB drop and his pull was off so he was a little late getting across so I can give him credit for not wanting Nwosu to get in the backfield but he still knows the RB is back there...I say it's a little dirty but probably not malicious

We have had very successful regular season defenses.

Yeah I kind of just ignore people who think that tbh Yeah I just don't buy that we don't have exactly the players on defense we've wanted. Not when we've spent top of the league on defense the last 4 years
