Allen left a lot of throws on the field IMO. Again, not the biggest issue by any stretch. The defense and run game was abysmal, but Allen simply wasn't seeing the game the way he did pretty much all season.
Can you give some examples? I'm honestly struggling to remember when Allen straight up missed a bunch of throws/reads.
My biggest issue with him was his taking massive sacks, but that's just a process of him trying to do too much when the team/season is crumbling around him.

As correctly pointed out by Romo, our receivers got zero separation, this leaded to Josh losing its confidence and throwing ints.
I think KC won on the defensive side of the field while we got no answers fot Tyrek and Travis.
Romo was spot on and justifiably low key eviscerating our coaches all game.
Even if our Offense was clicking, KC scored on all their legitimate drives outside of a drop by a wide open Hill on the first drive of the game.
Hey Josh, we're going to need you to score TD's every drive, our OL is going to crumble, our WR's won't get open and your release valves are a mediocre TE, a JAG RB and a slow RB who can't catch.... GO GET 'EM!!!!

When looking at Buffalo and Kansas City, here are the top 6 playmakers combined.
Kelce
Hill
Diggs
Mathieu
Jones
Clark
Pretty easy to see we lack playmakers when comparing ourselves to the gold standard in the NFL at the moment.

Allen wasn't the reason we lost, but I think the Bills likely win if the QBs switched teams. Mahomes is just that good. Still can't be anything but thrilled to have Allen as the QB here though.
Couldn’t disagree more.
Allen bought time but nobody was open.
Mahomes bought time and Kelce was clowning people into being open by 10 feet.
Allen was under pressure all game with no reliable release valve.
Mahomes was comfortable in the pocket and had the benefit of massive plays from the likes of Hill and Hardman.
Mahomes is still better right now. Don’t worry, I’m not going there.... but Mahomes loses if he’s on the Bills last night.

KC’s defense was light years ahead of ours and their O-Line was letting nothing through. We have a lot of money already tied up in a CB who can’t cover top players in the playoffs and a LT who struggles with speed rushers. We have a long way to go and the media was right calling us a baby version of KC. They should’ve called us the light years version because that is how far away we are from KC.
Tre White is more Marlon Humphrey than Jalen Ramsey.
Look at the impact players on defense last night. You go through 3 before you potentially get to a Bill..
Tyrann Mathieu
Chris Jones
Frank Clark

Biggest observation from this game (and the entire year)...
We are very good. Built for a sustainable run for the next decade potentially. We have an elite talent at QB and a strong GM/HC duo. We have a high level young LT locked up and an elite #1 WR. The pillars you need to build a top end offense are there. I think we can all see the tinkering that needs to be done on that side of the ball.
The defense needs to be overhauled.
Back to my observation....
We are very good. A potential year in/year out contender. We played two games against KC this year. We were out-coached and out-talented in both games.
We’re very good. We need a really strong offseason to compete with KC.
That’s it. That’s the observation. KC is just so much better than us right now. Their coaches know it and coach like it. Sadly, our coaches knew it, and coached like it too.

I don’t know where we’re finding an elite pass rusher. Probably the best we can do is letting Milano walk, cutting some people like Brown etc., and signing a Bud Dupree or Matthew Judon.
I think we need to cut bait with Singletary. Just chalk it up to a bad pick. Moss has a role, but we desperately need speed at the RB position. That drop was inexcusable, and it’s not an overreaction to say that he singlehandedly changed the momentum of the game. Never mind the fact a JAG in Yeldon looked 10x more dangerous out there when he replaced Singletary.... and Yeldon is not dangerous.
I don’t even know where to start on defense. Big changes need to come on that side of the ball.

Those against Najee Harris... the dude is an elite receiving back. Think Alvin Kamara type receiving skill. He’s the perfect back for this offense.
He would have lit up KC out of the backfield on short dump offs last night. Alabama made a living off him doing that while teams tried to take away their WR’s.
I’m typically dead set against high round RB’s, but not for him.
We need another weapon not named WR... I doubt an impact TE is there when we draft. Pitts definitely isn’t lasting long.

Same one as you! Double coverage, too many around to be forcing that throw!
Maybe someone besides Beasley could get open... otherwise, Allen forcing throws was necessary, especially with Jones and Clark bearing down on him with minor resistance. -
Defense needs to be rebuilt, from coaching on down.
They were a middle of the pack defense, with heavy cap hits and a bunch of high draft picks.
We played 3 playoff games. One elite performance, a performance where they almost sabotaged us and a performance where their only legit stop ALL GAME was a dropped deep pass.

I think KC will roll, but I’m rooting for Brady and Tampa.
True GOAT, and he’s actually dominated without having the best offense in football around him.
Mahomes fanboys have pushed me to rooting for Brady.

Allen looked scared as ***** dude. Mahomes looked like it was just another game....
Just stop... Mahomes had Kelce wide open all game and Hill was torching us.
I’m not saying Allen is better right now, but it’s absurd that you pretend to not have watched the same game we all watched.
Romo literally pointed out how no one was getting open for us multiple times throughout the game.

Anybody from the media ask McD about cluelessly kicking FGs??
Not this again.... Mahomes is better. Josh is good but Mahomes is better. He’s in a league of his own.
Maybe Mahomes doesn’t take the massive sacks, but he was throwing to wide open dudes alllll night. Every throw Allen made, as highlighted numerous times by Romo, was under pressure and into a crazy tight window.-

We are gonna need another big weapon if we want to compete with Chiefs... they have Kelce and Hill. If we cant cover them we are gonna have to match them... who can we get to pair with Diggs and not nreak the bank
Figure out a way to draft Najee Harris. Not just as a runner, but he would be a guy we could target KC with on the underneath stuff like the pass Singletary dropped.-

We don’t need a “running game” but we do need RB talent in the short passing game or a big TE threat.
Chiefs took away our one punch.. Allen to the WR’s. That’s it. That’s all we’ve got.

Becton was an absolute home run, Mims looks like a good pick and I think the safety from Cal that they took in round three is going to be good. And the Adams trade was a steal. Not sure who the second receiver was that they passed on...So far, so good.
Becton, yes. Mims has potential.
Ashtyn Davis... ehhh.
The failure to draft two WR’s in the first 4 rounds was a huge miss after letting Robbie walk. They took a random QB over a guy like Gabriel Davis.

I don't think the Jets are so inept anymore. They have a good GM finally, and may have gotten themselves a competent coach. Watson immediately makes them a wildcard contender, at least.
Im sure Joe Douglas can be a good GM, but I’m not sure why people say he’s good already.
He’s had one FA period and Draft. Made the team way worse, let Robbie Anderson walk, acquired great draft capital for Jamal Adams, passed on a second WR in a loaded draft and most of his draft class has barely seen the field.

It's the level of "analysis" you're fed from your producer scouting box scores a half hour before the show. Pure Hackery.
Just like if Allen wins, they'll make a galaxy of excuses for "How the chiefs lost", before they start running SB clips from 30 years ago as introduction Brady's/Roger's inevitable Lombardi.
I actually think the narrative will immediately switch if we beat KC.
Right now they are the presumptive favorite in the media, not just now... but for the next 10 years.
If we take them down, it would represent a massive landscape shift both in the AFC gatekeeper and QB views.

Honestly as much as I love Allen I think this Is absolutely ridiculous. Mahomes has played better football than anyone in the history of the game over a 3 year span. His first 3 as a starter. Pump the breaks.
I think if we win on Sunday, and Allen plays well, this debate has serious merit.
Right now, I’d say Mahomes has done it year after year. There is consistency there.
Id also say that he’s a year older than Josh, sat for a year and has had Kelce/Hill from the jump.

If by "running game", you mean "passing game".... I agree.

This reminds me of a scene in the show "New Girl", where one of the main male characters (Nick) is dating Zooey Deschanel's character.
He is a huge Chicago Bulls fan.
She tries to befriend his best friend, who is a Pistons fan, by becoming a Pistons fan, and doesn't understand why Nick is so upset by it.
Eventually, after a few comedic scenes, there's a scene where Nick tells her that the Chicago Bulls represent who he is, and where he's from and is basically his entire relationship with his father.
It's a minor scene, in a comedy nonetheless, but it's what I point to whenever I tell someone, typically a woman I'm dating, how important the Bills are to me.. and what they represent.

I think most QB's, including Josh, have stated that rain and wind are what can bother them.
Cold and snow typically aren't an issue for passing offenses, provided the QB isn't a southern/indoor guy who can't handle it.

I would just add (probably repeating myself but hey, what's new?) that I think we should distinguish GM hire from HC hire. On the former I struggle to see an argument for a franchise QB having a say in the decision - but that is what Cal McNair promised and so he either shouldn't have promised or should have delivered.
On the latter, however, it is perfectly normal for a franchise QB to have input into a Head Coaching decision. Rodgers did with LaFleur and Goff did with McVay. Not that they made the final decision but both franchises had the finalists for their jobs meet their Quarterback before they made a hire. To be honest regardless of what McNair promised it would have been negligent to make that decision without some input from Watson IMO. And that is for all the reasons you state - they are gonna have to work very closely together.
EDIT: agree also about hiring practices outside of football. You can't be hired to the senior grades of our Government service now without going through a "people panel" of junior grades. It definitely has a place.
Whatever input Rodgers had in the hiring process, he still lobbied for a playmaker after that and then they went out and drafted a 1st Round QB.
If this is how Watson acts as the face of a franchise, posting drama-stirring tweets like an emo kid and “liking” content to create tension, then I don’t blame them for going back on their word of involving him in decision making.

blood is boiling. watching nfl live. ALL year keyshawn has been hating on allen (way more than normal). Similarly Dominique Foxworthy, clinton yates too. "flavor of the month" get the f out.
also notice how media says gotta ignore bucs / pac previous meeting but HANGS buffalo for the first meeting and doesnt apply same take?
Thankfully orlovsky tried to make him look dumb....but then even keyshawn got pissed telling him to sit down
It’s been hard for me to get into any of the non-Bills centric game hype for Ravens or Chiefs. Last week it was all about Lamar. This week it’s all about Mahomes and his concussion.
I like the GMFB & Chris Simms stuff, but outside of that, it’s all played out or straight up false hot takes.

Can we discuss why the hell we went into game with 3 broken receivers?

Not sure if there's an answer for this past game, but next year I'm not sure we can be wasting a WR spot on a pure KR/PR.... If Stills had been on this team all year, we can probably play him over one of the injured guys and not worry about all the negatives of his inexperience with Josh.
We can't be a heavy 4-wide team when our 5th WR is a gadget guy and 6th WR is a KR/PR only.
