Cooper only played 32 snaps in the Chiefs game and 21 snaps in the Ravens game. Literally no point in bringing him back if they won't use him.

There was only two realistic results from Brady's play. They identify the blitz correctly and the line holds up long enough to get Kincaid the ball or the blitz isn't handled correctly leading to Shakir getting the ball 15 yards short of the marker. Which means that Kincaid was the only reasonable opportunity to get the first down. The problems start with Spags already knowing that Brady was going to sit on the same thing he's been running all year. That meant the defense had everything covered perfectly. The next problem is identifying the blitz against the best defensive coordinator in the league at disguising blitzes with only one hot route. A hot route 15 yards short of the first down! It was the most important play of the season and Brady was outclassed.

Going through a rebuild year during Josh Allen's prime should have set his pants on fire last year.

I'm not criticizing the execution or the coaching behind it. I don't have statistical analysis behind it, but I believe they ran a LOT of mesh plays this year. This was the play of the season where you bring out something new. Be it a new concept or a variation of a concept to throw the defense off. I just think Brady had a really poor game on top of a really poor showing against the Ravens.

***** me, Brady ran a mesh concept on the most important play of the season like a kid running back to mama.

With stunning success stories such as Doug Legursky on his resume.

You're going to get another offseason of rebuilding the secondary and the defensive line. AND YOU'LL LIKE IT!

The throw that Kincaid dropped on the last drive was incredible too. Allen did play great football yesterday. On the other hand, the offensive line didn't play well and Brady had an overall poor game.

It's the same mindset they had last week against the Ravens and last year against the Chiefs. Brady is SUPER conservative when the game is on the line. It's a terrible trait to have for a coordinator. He's the exact opposite of Spags who is naturally aggressive in important moments.

That third down swing pass before Spags outcoached Brady on fourth down is arguably the worst call of the season. Up there with the garbage TE screen call last week against the Ravens in an important moment. Wait... I might be seeing a pattern here. Edit - I totally forgot about the third and goal fade route to Coleman too! That's up there with Doug Marrone and Nate Hackett playcalling.

Beane didn't draft Dawkins, Milano, or White. If we give him credit for those picks then we also have to talk about him skipping out on potentially the greatest QB of all time.

Fans should have been questioning him for years now. Every year the defensive line fails to show up despite the capital invested in it. Coleman and Bishop were invisible tonight, it's too early to clown this class though. Kincaid doesn't look like a serious offensive threat, Elam is a bust, Rousseau is meh (worst defensive lineman tonight), Basham was a bust, Epenesa is meh, and Oliver/Ford are busts. He finds pieces here and there but overall there's too many misses. It once again comes down to the same question. Who's the bigger problem, the GM or coaching staff? That question won't be solved because McDermott and Beane are a package deal. This is the issue with the coach hiring his personal GM. We aren't getting one without the other despite one aspect needing to be replaced.

We haven’t forced a punt since the wild card game people.

That Worthy vs. Coleman debate really taking a bad turn today.

Time to put Groot on the bench.

I hope so, because the Chiefs are a much stronger team than they were last year.

They tried that last year, they lost because of it. Despite holding onto the ball for 37 minutes of the game they only scored 24 points. The Chiefs only had the ball for 23:00 minutes and still had 361 yards. Seven yards short of the Bills 368 with half the time of possession. The offense didn't get it done in the second half last year just like they didn't get done yesterday against the Ravens.

I wouldn't say that's nitpicky at all. The offense didn't perform in the second half. The offense could have come out in the second half and put the Ravens away for good. Instead, they stuck with the running ball control offense which gave the Ravens an opportunity to win the game despite turning over the ball three times and losing the time of possession game.

Add that to the list of special teams failures in the Micky D era.

Possibly the worst play call on the season.

I'm hoping that they sign an established player. Anything to keep Beane from drafting another mediocre pass rusher within in the first two rounds.

***** prevent defense man

The drafting failures have really reared their ugly head so far.

The hell is Rapp doing

Defense looks pretty bad again 😬
