    We need a more violent downhill defense.  Those are the defenses that perform in the playoffs.  Players are banged up and the film is out there after 18 or 19 games.  Undersized defenses that rely on confusing guys like Mahomes or even Burrow don’t hold up.  

     

    Yeap. I kept thinking about this since we started the playoffs. Sure we have a good-great regular season defense, but come playoff time our injury list on defense is a laundry list of who's who names. It seems like the past couple season's this is how it always plays out. Our defense is just not big enough for the pounding of a 17-game regular season. We a rolling out 2nd-3rd stringers across the board on defense come playoff time. Then we get all pissy that our defense falls apart in the playoffs. It's cause we got Joe-blow who should be working security at the Galleria Mall playing MLB.

     

    I know McDermott loves his fast-undersized guys that can fly to the ball, but damn if you're 20-30 lbs undersized what good is your speed if your in street clothes on the sideline by the end of the year? I'll give you a coincidence if it's just one season, bad luck, fine whatever. But this is like the 2nd or 3rd post-season now.  This does not bode well. 

     

    People want to take the high ground and say that Baltimore is full of thugs and bullies and are glad they did not win, but I will trade everyone on our defense, for everyone on their defense, every day of the week. You swap defenses and we are talking about which hotels we are staying at to go watch the Bills play the 49ers in the Super Bowl. It's frustrating.

  2. It's a weird acceptance feeling of "maybe we will never beat the Chiefs in the playoffs". Maybe our only viable path ever to the SB will be one where we do not have to face KC.

     

    If you cannot beat this Chiefs team, at home in our hostile environment, and let's face it this was our SB, then I do not know when it will happen. I did not think they would go into Baltimore next week and win, I thought every ounce of energy and emotion would be spent to ensure we slayed this dragon (a Mahomes led Chiefs in the playoffs).
