Goff is on the struggle bus in the cold

Agreed. Cinci came out with violent intentions last Monday Night. We’ve seen the physicality the Chiefs defense played with two years ago in the AFCCG. They need to bring it now that it’s real. Im confident they will. Great point by Simon .. glad we got that out of our system.

Hutchinson looks like TJ Watt out there tonight.

Haha, no.

I thought I heard they were asking him about what he saw during the film review and he was confused about even recalling the play. Could be wrong.

We started to see some of the “Playoff Bills” out there today. Those explosives should be more available for us moving forward when teams have to deal with us running Allen anytime. Defense, mixed bag .. but when you see Allen tear up during the postgame, it’s clear they were emotionally spent heading into this game. Just goes to show how much better they are than NE to beat a team fighting for their life, while being mentally drained.

Concussed Tua that doesn’t remember some of those plays? No, healthy Tua. The one GB saw before that, who’s at least competent. I’m not asking you to be scared of Miami.. just not sure why anyone would draw anything from a game where they played their 3rd string QB.

That team .. no, but cmon.. they’re on the 3rd string QB. We should win regardless, but with Tua they are a challenge. Cinci is in the same boat. If Lamar doesn’t play, Baltimore gets smoked. If he does .. Bengals better come ready to play.

I don’t think the Kamara comparisons for Cook moving forward into his career are far-fetched anymore. That being said, I highly doubt McDermott will go heavy Cook in the playoffs. Probably a split like we’ve seen. …but man, Cook has a ton of potential.

It really comes down to most of us not trusting our defense in big spots. People can say it’s because of Von/Hyde being out .. and that’s some of it .. but it’s time for that side of the ball to step up in a big moment. To date, they haven’t. Heck.. they almost cost us the game against Indy two Wild Cards ago. We have a defensive coach that has invested quite a bit in the defense. The losses on defense hurt .. and I’m not expecting them to shut down good offenses, but we need them to not be a sieve. Way too early to know how the MNF game would’ve gone, and they have been soft to start games all year, but they were again a sieve in a big moment. Do they have a counter? A few wrinkles for the postseason? We shall see..

Did it open at -7.5 and just jumped to -10? I haven’t been following.. wondering if this is Tua related or not.

Do you feel better now getting those dramatics out of your system?

Tua shouldn’t play. He should take this off-season to get himself right, work on protection technique and look into different helmets. That said .. I’d be surprised if he doesn’t play given we are now in the playoffs.

Game was all but over … and then that. In case anyone is wondering how the Pats are in playoff contention and play so many close games … somehow all their games are like this.

Playoff Bills starting to show some signs ….

WE’RE SO BACK

He should have been getting those out of his system throughout the year. Instead we’re asking a rookie who’s barely played to save our meh secondary. Now we’ll go back to Dane Jackson, who allows the same stuff.

Thing is … Buffalo was struggle bussing until the playoffs last year as well. Not a ton of us were wildly confident against NE in the Playoffs. Expecting a win, sure. …but it felt, and will likely feel, similar to how many of us will feel heading into these playoffs. Then we hit another gear.

Championship level drive right there to get some space in a game we’re sleepwalking through. Headlined by Khalil Shakir and John Brown, obviously.

Safe to say John Brown earned himself Gameday Actives in the Playoffs. That speed …. Yeesh

SMOKE

Maybe. Maybe Josh can hit Gabe on a well designed play and we gain 15-20 yards.

I do agree. He looks very worn out. Even in his pregame speech, he sounded like he had a cold.

Running Allen like that in this game makes me irrationally angry.

Knox is a monster check down option. Which is why we obviously rarely use him for that.
