I’ve never heard anyone call Allen a choker lol. Bills fans out here fighting the voices in their heads.

We can compare the last 2 seasons, in which both players had probably the most comparable group of offensive talent around them. Allen: 2-2, 63% completion, 11 TD's (4.6%), 3 INT's (2%) 299 YPG, 90.0 passer rating Mahomes: 7-0, 70% completion, 13 TD's (5.2%), 1 INT (0.4%) 279 YPG, 107.5 passer rating Allen is a lot closer to a guy who had one incredible Mahomes plus playoff run than a guy who is actually consistently on his level.

Mahomes. Mahomes playoff numbers: 15-3, 67.9 completion%, 46 TD’s (6.9 TD%), 8 INT’s (1.2 INT%), 315 YPG, 105.8 passer rating Allen’s playoff numbers: 5-5, 64.6 completion%, 27 TD’s (5.6 TD%), 4 INT’s (1.1 INT%) 328 YPG, 100.0 passer rating It’s not really a debate. Allen elevates in the playoffs and plays close to his level but there’s a definite gap imo.

53% against the spread in their last 45 regular season games. You don’t go broke taking a profit.

No. I’m saying that the Pats covered 59% of their games since Brady became their QB in 2001. If you just bet every single Pats game over that span, you would’ve made money. The Chiefs are going to be up there as well.

Point me to where I said I don’t blame the defense lol. I have said they have not performed particularly well vs KC in the playoffs. I don’t understand what else you want me to say? I think a coach can have a bad performance and not be fired. Obviously.

Respect this post but:

What was he in his first 7 seasons? as @GunnerBill says, when the best QB and best HC get together, they dominate. That’s the history of the NFL. You just can’t accept we don’t have the best QB/HC combo. You think we have half of it. I think we have 0% of that equation.

Peyton has made more ProBowls! energy

Broncos fans that couldn't admit Montana was better than Elway. Colts fans that couldn't admit Brady was better than Peyton. Bills fans that can't admit Mahomes is better than Allen. Time is a flat circle.

Inferiority complex of what? Thinking we have been the second best team in the conference? Just admit you and @HappyDays think we have the best QB in football and if we had a different coach, we’d be going for our threepeat while Mahomes would be battling Burrow for the title of second best QB. That’s all this is.

There are more bad coaches than coaches of McD’s caliber.

Is there a way to bet on Ben Johnson coaching the Bears and Caleb next year?

15-1 is proof positive that most other coaches have no answer. Folks are so fired up that we aren’t the best team in the NFL by a wide margin they don’t even know what we have or haven’t done lol

Uh, yeah? Lol

There is a football axiom I followed for a good 15 years. “You don’t make money betting against the Patriots or Alabama.” That has changed. It’s now, “you don’t make money betting against the Chiefs.”

It’s never gonna happen often. that’s the “still mad we aren’t the dynasty”‘thing

Wishing for a coach that doesn’t exist that’s going to outcoach every other coach in the NFL isn’t a plan lol. what you seem to not understand with the historical context is that during the Pats dynasty, a couple of other coaches and QB’s DID win a Super Bowl. Some of them were long-tenured coaches who had never won or demonstrated that they could until….they did. Harbaugh lost to the Steelers twice, the Colts, the Pats in his first 5 years. Then he beat everyone and won the Super Bowl.

It's only a choice if you think if there is no chance of glory with our current HC. Obviously, lots of folks feel differently lol.

I’m not saying that McDermott has coached particularly well vs Reid in the playoffs. That’s why I don’t care. Just like the Chargers or Steelers or Ravens or Colts coaches didn’t always coach particularly well against the Pats and Brady.

What HC’s are “dynamic?”

It’s 15-1!!!!

We should line up 6 WR’s, 2 TE’s and 2 RB’s. The 11 guys playing defense can’t cover of all them
