Yeah feared the worst with McKenzie since he's a big part of the offense now and going forward. Glad to see it wasn't that serious and he was back playing. I thought it was a cramp and maybe that's all it was.
Thats all it was they gave him an iv u could see the tape on his arm afterwards when returning.

I should mention that Golloday made great plays .... not saying it was white’s fault really. Just wondering why they looked at that matchup and thought, yup this is the week we start using Golloday!
Got to be the 5-6 inch height advantage.

Mostly McDermott bashing. Probably the hottest of takes was declaring his inability to get 60+ yards in under a minute at the end of the first half the final straw.
I mean I get if you think he's not the best coach but HOT take if that's reason why.
My oh my its the same as last week and the week before, from these arm chair hcs.

Was there fire hot takes in here today?

A wr who doesnt give up on plays, a wr who hates to lose to a cb, a wr who will learn his craft in order to be an asset of the team instead of a liability (kb, etc), and finally one that comes prepared.

Yards don’t matter, especially 300 yard games. At least that’s what I’ve been told around here.
300 yd games dont matter fir instance 7/11 wins for brees were under 300 yd passing games. Most certainly their nice if for nothing else than to keep the gang around here lacks knowledge about the game that keep clamoring for 300 yard passing games quiet.

Is this the point in the Andy Reid season where they fall apart? Or are they goona wait for the 1st game of the playoffs?

How do you leave Williams wide open?
I remember someone telling me on here how Mike Williams was nothing compared to Ross during the draft. I remember...

There is a good reason why our coach is relatively conservative on offense: He doesn't have enough talent on offense to execute a more aggressive game plan. Our OL is one of the worst in the league. Our running game outside of the qb is poor. Our backs are clearly on the downside of their careers. Our receiving unit is less than second-rate. And our young qb is very raw. At this early stage in his career he is not very adept at making reads and going through progressions. Because of the lackluster talent on offense Daboll has had to resort to a number of gimmick plays in order to keep the defense off-balance.
The issue isn't what you want to do as it is what are you capable of doing. The truth is our offense can't do much. When you have a glaring deficit of talent on offense you do whatever you have to do to get by. The conservative approach may be unsatisfying to the fans but under our restricted circumstances the conservative approach is the right approach to take.
One of the many reasons I said earlier, the percentage wise of our team able to convert on fourth down comparatively speaking with that of the rams, chiefs, patriots, saints is not even in the same universe for a multitude of reasons.

the 55 yard field goal with an injured kicker was a head-scratcher. either punt and pin them back, or better yet, let JA and the offense try to execute a 4th down.
So kick it and let them run it back for a td (likely), let allen try and get a first down (plausible), or let your medically cleared kicker with wind try and add 3 points to your score (plausible). Two of those dont result in anything points wise for our team.

To me this is a cop-out because Allen the last 2 games has been good enough to beat those teams, and McD still coached the same way.
And there's no excuse for bad clock management no matter how bad the team is. Those situations with critical thinking are not going to change if we do add quality talent to the offense and become a good team. If anything, they're going to intensify.
What?
Its not a cop out.
At then end of the first quarter Allen from carrying the team on his shoulders literally showed a gimpy demeanor on the side of the field regarding his legs.
Mckenzie and Foster both were sidelined a couple of times during big hits.
Shady played 1.2 nano seconds.
Our guard got rolled up on pretty badly.
It wasnt the same, we werent playing against the same folks, we werent playing against the same defense.
Its not necessarily bad clock management, without knowing his intent.
If his intent was as I stated earlier getting out of the halftime without turning the ball over and giving the opposing team another opportunity to score in order to revist and revise the ineffective portion of the gameplan isnt bad clock management; it’s actually pretty smart and effective. Once again just because you see Brady Brees Rams chiefs attempt to march down the field with two minites left doesnt mean its right for this team.
Because conversly if it fails and the other team scores then you just made it worse.

I think one this is one of the fundamental differences in how we approach this. It was fun in the moment...but 9-7 and one and done in the playoffs really doesn't mean anything to me. No matter where you are as a franchise or how long it's been since success, the end goal should always be Superbowl/perennial legitimate contender. That means having the right guy for that kind of goal. I don't think coaching to keep it close instead of winning is going to bring and keep this team at that level long-term.
I'm not asking for this team to win this year, in fact I've said a million times that I don't care about the record at all this year. I'm just looking for progression in important areas. I don't see it with him. Yeah, this isn't a good offense. But Allen was good enough yesterday to give him more of a shot to close that game out. Instead, McDermott played for a field goal. It's not even like he coached for a field goal with 30 seconds left. There were over 2 minutes on the clock.
And what about all the blunders with clock management he's had? That has nothing to do with the team's talent deficiencies, only his own.
Ive said it. Hes been coaching for less than two years head coaching experience. Hes made mistakes that other young head coaches have made too, however , their talent on their team have bailed them out. Hes made alot of mistakes and I think if you had the opportunity to ask him he would state ao. Talent makes a world of difference, especially in coaching and the decisions a coach makes. It cant be taken as in well the rams coach does it so its the golden standard. If your team is struggling to move the ball and its before half time and your game plan is innecfective, with the talent the bills have on hand its a very smart move to goninto to half time and adjust instead of risking a dropped pass, turnover (int), or a failure for your rbs to pick up a first down to turn the ball over to the opposing team and put your defense back on the field. However, if you had the rams offense, saints offense, or chiefs offense, then thats a higher probability if converting based on playmakers alone, not to mention the comfortability of the hc with the oc, the comfortability with the players in a non first year system, etc.
thats what many of you fail to realize the context of the situation isnt being taken in consideration. Nothing is similiar between those teams other than they play in the NFL and they are allowed to have 11 players on the field at the same time. Thats were the similarities end. Thats why you are likely never to see an aggressive play style from our coach offensively until the offense is more consistently producing.

From having an injured kicker go for a 54 yarder to the 2 runs on 1st and 2nd at the Jets 23 on the second to last drive...this conservative garbage is so incredibly frustrating. I just don't understand it. Is the point of the game to keep it close or to go for the win? Even when we're 4-8 the guy just won't go for it. Give Allen more than 1 shot on that set of downs to make a play. Stop playing for a field goal.
You can see this coming a mile away, sometime in the future if we make it back to the playoffs, his brutal gameday management and conservativeness is going to bite us hard at the end of a game.
His coaching also got us to the biggest game this franchise has seen ina quarter of a century, with a cap strapped team, a lame offensive coordinator, and a very mediocre set off offensive playmakers. Give him more than 2 seasons of head coaching experience and see what happens. Here is the thing an aggressive play style that you yearn for that you see happening with other teams (chiefs, saints, rams, etc) there is a reason it works for them; I’m going to go out on a limb and state that hopefully you can see the differences (plural) between our team and theirs that would make it easier for a head coach to put the game on the line by risking an aggressive play style that isnt needed at that point in the game.

The need a rb thats going to hit the hole even when there ia contqct for the three to fibe yard tough gains. Ivory usually does it, however, here recently he hasnt. Its quite ipsetting that the qb faving a stacked line goal line defense knowing hes going to get pummeled can not only get the one yard but almost break it for a huge gain. We need a back that isnt afraid of contact and doesnt hesitate.

I think the most interesting thing with Brandon Beane is that he cut Nate Peterman soon after Sean McDermott expresses confidence in him. Logically it’s a shot across the bow from the management to the coaching to smarter up and straighten the ship. Folks will insist that McDermott is the one who brought in Beane. Let’s be honest folks this is a business and Beane knows he doesn’t want to be tied into Sean. Beane will want his own guy at the end of the season and won’t show any indication of his movements while he works around interim issues. It’s ruthless but also has happened in several sports and franchises in the past.
So when you are proven incorrect will you never make another ridiculous thread again?

Hopefully they fine the ref too, he had an equal part in this especially if he did in fact use the curse word referring to Hughes.

In that case, your statement claiming if we had 2 different players we'd have zero cap is...most puzzling.
I never claimed we would have two different players. Not once. I stated Sammys cap hit that he accepted from the Chiefs as a best case scenario from us. I further eluded to the fact as of today we are at 8-9 million. I never insinuated that it was either or, its clear to me as it should be to you that Bean has been trying to get receivers in here. As by the dead cap hits we are paying 12 wrs right now. Kb didnt stop the Tp or Coleman signing what makes you think Sammy would have stopped kb and the other 11 we are paying dead cap hits to?
So its a little more complex than a cursory glance that u and others proceeded to take.
Today we still have no number one wr after signing and cutting and taking dead cap hits on 12 wrs. Sammys pay would zero out our cap or come very close to it.
Hes only started 9 out of 12 games and it didnt stop andy reid from putting him on his team (regardless of his petty contract).

Dude, you can't just look at one move and say "cap close to zero"
We paid KB $8.5M this year and are still paying while he plays for the Chiefs, and we're paying ~$3M for Corey Coleman to play for the Giants, just for 2 moves that add up to $11.5M, see the point?
First off im well aware of how the cap hit works. Thats why I said nothing about the other players. Im well aware of how the cap works. I follow it closely. We are still paying for alot more players than them.

Well John, you made the statement that the team would have zero cap space had they not dealt those guys. It's not true...the effect on cap space would be minimal.
And yes, we can almost definitively say that there's no way they'd have traded a 3rd round pick in a year that they were trying to accumulate draft capitol for Benjamin if they had Watkins on an identical contract.
The big difference is that the team would've been forced to trade a 2019 pick to get Allen instead of a 2018 2nd.
Yes, he's well worth the contract, which is what many of us said at the time.
Who, how, why would we not be at zero?
Sammy was signed for 3/48 mil.
this year his cap hit is 7.8 mil.
Our cap space is 8-9 mil. Looks pretty close to zero.

It wasnt cheating it was perfectly legal and an effort to limit the steelers ability to have the ball with time on the clock. I hate the Patriots but you are waaaayyyy off base here.
