That'll make the Dolphins much better, especially against the Bills. Hope they don't hire him 😅

Call me a loser then, I don't care. Josh isn't a "loser," and that's my point. If you've listened to any Bills talk after the Chiefs loss, all you hear is people mocking Allen as "Mahomes' son." And the amount of times I've read & heard "Mahomes v Allen isn't the next Brady v Manning, that's Brady v Rivers.... the real rivalry is Mahomes v Lamar!" Yeah, well what now? The guy that's 2-4 in the playoffs and a 2 x MVP with a healthy team... that's the "REAL" 2nd best QB in the league? Yeah right. I'd rather have Mahomes win every playoff game until the Bills have a shot at him again. Note, I said PLAYOFF, not post season. Just like I was rooting for a Bucs vs Bills Super Bowl in 2021 so the Bills could topple Brady, I want them to be the ones to take out the Chiefs.

This is the result I wanted! Now the media can't single in on Josh losing to Mahomes. He put up a better fight with a worse defense than the supposed MVP did with a much healthier supporting cast.

That's not beating yourself. That was a defender making a play, and turn it over due to a rule.

At least he wants to run the ball, so I'm excited to see what he schemes up given an entire off-season. Hopefully we target some speedy WRs & grab some more O-linemen. Oh, and maybe bring in a kicker or two just to be thorough. Perhaps hit up some of those YouTube kickers that nail shots 70 yards out, but only in perfect conditions & street clothes 😂

Yeah, but context matters. Losing a 1 point lead with plenty of time left isn't some crazy collapse, especially in a game where the guy you're seemingly defending threw 2 INTs & added a fumble. Or when you score 3 points in a half, turn it over multiple times, and wait until 2 minutes left in the 4th quarter to finally eek ahead (against a terrible team), it's not quite the defensive meltdown it sounds like. It'd be like saying "Josh lead a drive to send a game into OT, but the defense choked by giving up a TD in OT!"... Then seeing that was the Jets game & Allen had 4 turnovers. Context matters, and even the 4 losses you're talking about were TEAM chokes, Allen included.

Mike Evans is the same age as Diggs, and he's still putting up numbers no matter who's behind center. I think Diggs can definitely be a number 1 still, it's just a matter of scheming & play calling (as well as improving the other talent at WR), along with commitment to stay with this organization.

Makes you wonder what difference Deandre Hopkins could've made on this team, or what we could've done with that Von Miller money. I'm not saying going after Von was bad, especially at a time when we saw how critical it was to have a strong pass rush. But had our picks in the draft panned out, there wouldn't have been a need to pay a monster contract to a veteran on the downside of his career. Even when this defense was ranked as high as it was, did people ever feel it was as game-changing or dominant as our defense was, for example, under Schwartz in 2014? I believe McDermott is a very capable defensive-minded coach, but the Bills are still missing something there. Offensive line should still be a huge priority imo. Especially if the Bills plan to be a balanced unit that prioritizes running the ball, they'll need to keep investing in the line. Speed at WR is a must, so I'm glad he mentioned that. It's unlikely we find the next Tyreek Hill, but even a younger John Brown-type would be great. Overall, they need to get younger at many levels. We know both of our amazing safeties are falling behind. But offense is still the priority to me. We've seen what a top ranked defense gets us, but it never amounts to much against top QBs. So instead let's support our own top QB & give him the best chance to succeed by outscoring opponents.

But why do Bills fans want Lamar to supplant Allen in the media & fans' eyes? Everyone saw what happened when the Bengals beat the Chiefs to make it to a Super Bowl. Burrow got all the credit, and the conversation quickly became Mahomes #1, Burrow a close #2, then everyone else a tier below. People give ALL credit & blame to QBs these days, and Lamar knocking off Mahomes would just have him leapfrog Allen in most people's eyes. If you look forward to seeing Allen disrespected & ranked consistently lower than Lamar on all player & QB tier lists, then sure... cheer for the Ravens. Don't forget Allen's performance at home head-to-head against Burrow in the playoffs last year. Fans of other teams haven't. Don't believe me, pin this comment & come back next season when you see those "Allen is being disrespected!" threads pop up everywhere. It will not be fun listening to people hype up Lamar, Mahomes & Burrow next post season, all while they disregard Allen's play through 18 weeks in anticipation of another loss in the playoffs.

Exactly! I want the Lions or 49ers to win the Super Bowl. I just don't want the Ravens to even get there. If you guys have been listening to sports talk the past week, you probably heard or seen the comments on social media "Mahomes vs Allen isn't the new Brady vs Manning... 0-3 isn't a rivalry!" and "Mahomes vs Lamar is the TRUE rivalry!" I want those people to fall flat on their face. I want the Chiefs to blowout and embarrass the Ravens... If the devastated Bills defense with "turnover machine" Josh Allen take the Chiefs to the wire, but the MVP & amazing Ravens defense lose, maybe people will see stfu and stop pinning everything on Allen.

Don't read the comments under the Tweet. I haven't, but I'm sure most of them are mocking Dak & Allen being there.

I'm more selfish than that. I want Mahomes to win. If the Ravens KO the Chiefs & advance to the Super Bowl, that'll just make the narrative against Josh even stronger. "Every other elite QB in the AFC accomplished more & made a Super Bowl!" Burrow & Lamar both made more AFCCGs, both beat the Chiefs in the playoffs, both made a SB, and one even has an MVP (possibly 2). If Mahomes KO's Lamar, that drops his record to 2-4 in the postseason, and it'll still give Josh some breathing room.

Please no, not as an OC. I closely followed every step of Kingsbury's career (being a Texas Tech guy myself), but I don't have any confidence in his play calling abilities. He was instrumental in helping some prominent college QBs take that next step, but he shouldn't be calling an NFL offense. it would be cool to have him as the new QBs coach working closely with Josh, but he'd be even more one-dimensional than Dorsey calling plays. I can see it now...Air raid/spread college offense, going 5 wide, passing nonstop & getting asking Josh to chuck 40 attempts per game.

So like... round 2, pick 56 overall? 😉

Why does their great D show up in big games, while ours does not? An unusual amount of injuries hurt this year, but every other time we've had a top 5 D, it did nothing to slow down elite QBs come playoff time.

I know I'm jaded, but I couldn't care less about the defense at this point. McDermott has shown he can coach up late round picks just fine, and the 1st round picks have been hit or miss. Just give your star QB more weapons & more protection, then look for depth on D. Probably a dumb strategy, but a top 10 or even top 5 defense hasn't helped stop elite QBs yet, so why not try to outscore them?

These "friends" seem like they collectively share one brain cell... If these people are your "friends," how the hell do you not wonder why their cars are in front of your house for days after you last saw them? Then people were posting about the friends being missing, the home owner guy was aware they were missing, yet never said anything? I guess he also doesn't have a dog to let out back, trash cans, or even a glass window to take a peak into his back yard for 3 days? It's so unbelievably bizarre. And how do 3 grown men just hangout in the freezing cold all night together, and not one of them is coherent enough to notice how cold it is? Obviously drugs/alcohol were involved, but I've never been so drunk that I could just ignore the freezing cold. The second the tiniest breeze blew by, I'd wake right the hell up 😅

I would kill to have Harbaugh as our HC. I'm not quite in the "fire McDermott!" camp, but I sure as hell would take an upgrade like Harbaugh. There's no doubt in my mind he'll turn the Chargers around. It's annoying to think of yet another team & QB like Justin Herbert getting in our way.

I don't "expect" any. I think they'll give Brady more time, allowing him an entire off season to create his ideal system and make whatever adjustments he wants to make. I'm suspect there will be an emphasis on O-line & WRs in FA and the draft to help, as I believe the Bills saw the success they can have if they run a more balanced offense that emphasizes the run game.

Are Championship games the goal? Losing one game later is the goal? "He just got unlucky..." You could say the same thing about McDermott 10 years from now! Do you remember all of those games? Do you remember every call he made? He kept losing is the point. And one thing he wasn't up against - one of the great QBs of all time in his prime. McDermott has a bigger hurdle than Reid faced. To all those people that blindly think "making the NFC championship 5 times & losing" is somehow better, how is this better? - Lost in 2001 to the Rams 29-24 - Lost in 2002 to the Bucs 27 - 10 - Lost in 2003 to the Panthers 14-3 - Lost in 2008 to the Cardinals 32 - 25 Different QBs every time, while losing earlier than the NFCCG every other time. The Bills lost to the Chiefs dynasty, and the same QB 3 times now. Every team that beat Reid & the Eagles lost in the Super Bowl. The team beating the Bills won 2 x Super Bowls already, could do it a 3rd time this year. And don't give me "the teams that beat him went on to the Super Bowl!" - Yeah, no s***. It's the conference championship game, that's how it works. If the Chiefs win the SB this year, did McDermott get "unlucky" again meeting the Chiefs in the divisional round? Point is Reid had a top QB in the conference, and each year lost out to a one & done SB loser 4 times. He made it to a SB once, but then got "unlucky" playing Tom Brady & the Pats. But we're in the middle of the new dynasty's run, yet acting like we're losing to nobodies.

Let's not forget Andy Reid's playoff history before Mahomes. How many NFC playoff games did he lose with those Eagles teams? Then a few more with the Chiefs. It took him a long, long time to get where he is now. McDermott doesn't have the wins now, but Reid made the playoffs a dozen times before getting over the hump (yes, he did make a SB appearance with the Eagles once too).

1. Allen 2. Kincaid 3. Milano If Diggs was younger & less expensive, he'd be #2. Oliver is a strong option too, but I think Milano is basically the leader & QB of the defense when healthy.

He did well, but the batted balls & missing on a few connections hurt. Then again, the defense gave him zero room for error through most of the game. Problem is he had the ball in his hands for a potential game winning drive, and we had to settle for a FG. This team should've known this was it, they NEEDED a TD. Unfortunately, Josh & the offense didn't deliver when it mattered most.

I'd want to leave too. Go to the NFC. The Chiefs are just better across the board, and now the giant monkey on our backs is crushing us even more. It'll be even more painful when we watch Lamar get to the SB, as yet another AFC QB takes out the hated Chiefs & gets further than Josh & co. ever did.

Does it even matter anymore? We won't win anything unless another team KO's the Chiefs from the playoffs before we meet them. Doesn't matter what else is happening, the mental hurdle is now too huge for this group. They've realized that no matter what happens, the other team is more clutch, has better coaching, and has zero concern they'll ever lose to the Bills when it matters. The 90's Bills waiting for that other shoe to drop in the Super Bowl, these guys are probably thinking the same thing. Allen has now seen that no matter how hard he plays, the only way he wins is if the Chiefs hurt themselves. Diggs knows it too. It's sad, but I have no faith anymore. And no, hoping the team is magically healthy at the end of the season won't change anything.
