    Players Came Up Small

    What an awful disappointment of a game. I see the board is already flooded with 'coaching failure' takes. I don't recall a decision from McD that I really had a problem with. While I have beef with Kromer, Brady and Babich, this loss is on the players. The list of guys who did not bring their best is a long one.

     

    Biggest one is obviously Kincaid for the drop and an overall lack of physicality. He better tackle the offseason like his career depends on it because he had a brutal year.

     

    Right behind him on the disappointment list are the OL and Josh. The people who carried us all season played C+/B- games when it mattered most. Bad decisions all over the place and OL getting physically dominated. The short yardage game was horrendous. Josh got it together enough to keep them in it but he was far from his MVP best.

     

    Groot, where are you? Spent half the game on the ground. At this point, I'm no longer in favor of extending him. Try and trade for Crosby or Garrett or another difference maker.

     

    Taron Johnson's play hasn't matched his reputation for the last half of the year. No positive impact.

     

    Bernard took a huge step back this year. He had games last year with more impact than he had all season. He was invisible all night, with the exception of being 3 steps behind on the clinching pass.

     

    We had a giant black hole at safety. Bye Demar. Bishop I thought flashed a bit but has a long way to go. I'm not sure how he and Rapp really work as a duo.

     

    You could add about a dozen more guys who were MIA but less obvious. While the coaching wasn't great, the players on the field came up small in the big game.

    Yes.  Well said.  Taron hasn't lived up to the hype for a long time.  

    Coaching thoughts going forward

    I think McDermott gets out-coached more often then not in these playoff games .  It seems like the other team comes up with something that we never adjust to.  Tonight it was the Chiefs letting Mahomes run more and Chiefs defence preparing well for our tush-push

    Why didn't they spy him all night?

    Hopefully 2 ***** down corners. Miller will be gone and hopefully Rousseau too. I can’t watch him just stand there anymore. Let’s not forget Hamlin he needs to be replaced. Now offensively we need a WR or three that can create separation. 

    So a minor tweak here or there...

    Pass catcher is still our #1 need

    We entered the past two offseasons desperately needing more pass catchers. Well here we are again. Coleman was a non-factor. Samuel dropped a catch, tougher than it needed to be but still a play there to be made. The final play of the game a pass catcher let us down. The more I think about it the more disgusted I am.

     

    Hopefully Beane has finally learned that he needs to OVER invest in pass catchers. The only way we're winning a Super Bowl under this regime is with an offense that can completely steamroll the competition. We need someone other than Allen that can make the clutch play at the end. No more half measures. Go all in on giving Allen an offensive cast worthy of his talent.

    Spending a first rounder on a pass catching H back this year.  I know you want an actual receiver with speed that separates, but have you heard of positionless football?  Everyone eats, or starves like Ethiopian children.

    Hard to beat the Chiefs and the refs every post-season

    I’ll continue to echo- 

     

    two refs on opposite sides see the ball maybe 70% of the time based on positioning and pile 

     

    one marks the ball as a 2 ft gain, the other a 4 ft gain… wouldn’t the logical mechanism to spot the ball be to use the forward mark knowing neither saw the full motion but one says he did see that amount of gain?

    A chip in the ball, but that would eliminate influence.

    The problem is Andy Reid....name a Defense that consistently shuts him down.

    Surely there must be some.  Otherwise these super logical posters around here bitching about the defense tonight just wouldn't make any sense.

    Part 2- Another disaster by McDs defense in the playoffs

    As expected, post didn’t age well. The best thing McD can do is completely relinquish his defensive lean and hire someone that has the independent defensive to McD. The game ended as most expected; Reid destroying McD’s defense. They had no answer for Mahomes. Bend but don’t break works for rookie QBs, not the competent ones. 

    Oh oh oh, now do the chiefs defense that allowed 3 less points.  This is a ***** stupid take.  They caused a turnover and got a couple stops, the offense ***** the bed 3 times.  Twice with the ability to take a decent lead.

    I don't believe in Josh Allen anymore!

    So many games we've come up just short.  I believe Josh had the OK to call the plays on goal line situations. He BLEW it today with his ego.  There were so many opportunities to just run basic run plays with Cook, Johnson or Davis but he tried to do it all alone.  SAD for the team and BRUTAL for the fans. 

     

    I don't feel the same about him anymore!!

    I don't know that it was ego, but he definitely has a knack for coming up short on the biggest stage.  We have seen it year after year now.  I don't believe he will ever win a Superbowl either unfortunately.
