Exactly. No guarantees at all. What did Rivers make , one AFC title game? May have just watched our best chance ever slip by. This time he’s right.

Someone has to go. Make a big change on defensive side. You just don’t get opportunities like the Bills had to fall into your lap every season. It’s going to be hard to host an AFC title game much less one without Mahomes in it. May never get as good a look at a Super Bowl, even with Josh.

Has to be a bigger price paid than criticism.

Jerry isn’t wrong here. I’ve never been his biggest fan but his take is spot on. You can’t really call it anything else but a choke job. Just total mismanagement in the final seconds of what should have been one of the biggest wins in franchise history.

The situation was involving the final kick and coverage units, why they chose to kick deep etc. The STs did have a blocked punt and as noted a couple of lost fumbles. Coverage units ranked highly and wouldn’t have been a reason to not kick short. Who said the fumbles were OK? McD made changes to kick return team based on those fumbles so he definitely didn’t think it was ok.

It was. Rams ( more likely) or 49ers could beat either Chiefs or Bengals though.

A new offensive system would be a huge setback for a team with SuperBowl aspirations. Bills should make a strong play to keep Dorsey.

He will if he’s told to. With just 13 seconds left half the time could be consumed just getting to the 30.

Pretty sure the Bills STs ranked in the top 5 again in the Dallas morning news rankings. They may have had a couple fumbles on the receiving end but the coverage units were solid.

So they’re inconsistent like most NFL teams. The Bills game plan and their own lack of offense in last years playoffs contributed. When they’re on, not many teams ( if any) have a player to cover Hill or Kelce. You need to rally to the ball and make form tackles if you play the style the Bills defense does. They didn’t do that particularly well but you really need to beat the Chiefs with offense. The Bills did that and a better plan would have killed off the 13 seconds. Could the Bills get better on defense ? Sure but make every effort to improve the offense even more. Chances are in the playoffs you are going to get a teams best. That happened last night. Better coaching wins this game. I agree the plan seemed more aggressive in October. I’m guessing Andy Reid would destroy that plan if you did the same things again . Maybe the Bills coaches were less comfortable without White at CB. Kelce seemed to move around a lot more than he did in October. Anyway, Josh Allen was the Bills meal ticket here and he performed. This really came down to a bad plan to manage the final seconds.

There is no comparison. The Bills and the NFL in general were completely different.

List all the NFL defenses that outclass the team speed of the Chiefs offense. I’ll wait.....

Or just have a better defensive plan to hold them off for 13 seconds.

Sometimes the circumstances fall your way and other times they will not.There are outlier QBs that win championships. It would be a shame to have a talent like Allen at QB and win just a single Super Bowl or maybe none at all. You can’t just pencil in these opportunities.

Oh it will be tough . The Bills coaches wasted a massive opportunity last night as everything fell perfectly for Buffalo to not only host the AFC title game , but to win the Super Bowl. There was no QB of Allen’s caliber standing in the way after Mahomes. Josh has him beat in his own house and the Defensive staff choked with only 13 seconds to go.

Probably watch the NFC game. No interest in the AFC as I don’t want Burriw to have e. A shot before Josh and despise the Chiefs. Super Bowl I don’t know . Ugh the watch to root against AFC and maybe pull fir Stafford. I like San Fran but probably will skip it. Just too painful this year because I really believed it was ours this time.

How many kicks did they just cover in the last few minutes tho. I wonder if they all were just gassed enough to get beat for a big return. Only takes one miss. I’d take may chances covering 2 plays and a Hail Mary type deal.

He’s almost certainly gone esp w Quinn being the other candidate. The Bills need to promote Dorsey and keep the passing concepts or this team will take a big step back.

Aside from those who live / grew up in KC I’d have to agree.

As usual far off the mark. Not sure if you watched the game but the result had little to nothing to do with home field. Josh Allen stuck a knife in the Chiefs heart on his final drive and started with just over a minute to play. McDermott and Frazier pulled it out for them. If they don’t do that EVERY road team would have won their playoff game in the divisional round. You’re just flat wrong.

And particularly on McD/ Frazier.

Not meaningless for sure but it’s down the list for this team. They’ll get a talented player but their window is open now. The coaching changes and FA decisions will do more to determine their SB fate next year.

And Josh Allen + Bills offense is better than KC defense. They certainly were in crunch time life or death moment and stuck a dagger in the Chiefs heart. So what does it mean? The NFL is about offense now, not the defenses like in the 80’s and 90’s when you could punish offensive players physically. This was a tactical error on the part of Bills coaches in the final moments. Nothing more or less. No idea what he said but thanks for the contribution to the forum.

Bills should pay him as Beasley is aging and they need speed.

Don’t care. This team is capable of winning a Super Bowl now. Draft is way down this list of importance. I know after 15-20 years it’s a tough habit to snap but all that matters is coaching staff and FA.
