    Wrong he's touched and down 

    That’s a weird wrinkle in the rules I don’t think we’ve ever seen before…it’s not like he gave himself up he caught the ball on the ground…I think he should probably have to survive the ground there

    Let’s See if Josh has really matured and keeps from resorting to desperation hero ball.

    I’m so sick of this narrative, man.  Josh makes big time risky positive plays all the time and nobody talks about it until it doesn’t work a couple times then it’s ‘desperation hero ball’

  3. They also hate ocyrus Torrence lol I don’t think pff even normalizes their score based on opponents so there’s really nothing to support the bills having a bad pass rush.  If they got less points for beating up on bad olines maybe that would hold them back a bit but I don’t think it works that way

    Regular season champs

    Unfortunately we have been regular season second place in wins which has given the chiefs a huge edge in the playoffs and this all began just after the 2 seed stopped getting a bye 
     

    people talk like regular season success doesn’t effect playoffs and that is absolutely not true

    Wow. It's also amazing how balanced it is. They are first in both points scored and points given up.

    How the heck have we not won a Super Bowl? The same coaches that can win this consistently on both sides of the ball are capable of winning it all.

    We need a little luck. Sure maybe we are not the best team over the last 4 years - even with that point differential. (Have to give that to KC obviously.) But we are and have been a really, really good team and are plenty good enough to win at least one Super Bowl, hopefully more, if a few cards fall our way.

    Please let it happen!

    The nfl playoffs has a crazy high variance and it is especially high for teams that don’t get home field/a first round bye.  The best team winning the superbowl is pretty rare in general if you’re looking at an individual couple of years 

     

    everyone’s spoiled by what NE did but really most teams with an elite qb are very good for a decade or more and they only win 1-2 superbowls 

     

    the chiefs have been insanely lucky as far as seeding goes…any time they haven’t been the 1 seed the 1 seed has pooped the bed and they get the home afc championship anyway 😂

    By under react I mean saying how awesome they are and that this is just a hickup or no big deal.  Other teams it’s “this is the end of the dynasty!” Or “their window is closing fast” it all depends on how much they like that team.. 

    You sound like a Colts fan during the Manning years saying how awesome Manning is and that he is so much better than Brady. The point is stats are nice but I have yet to see a fan or anyone else get excited about amazing numbers more than amazing wins.  As I stated before right or wrong a QB is judged by winning and not much else until they retire then a rare few get the “wow he was amazing but unlucky” but fans grasp at stats when their team fails in the playoffs.. don’t become like those fans!

    Idk I think there’s some nuance to this as josh had the best two game run for a qb in the playoffs probably ever and the defense failed him miserably.  On the flip side, burrow has played pretty average in the playoffs and he has been rescued by his defense on quite a few occasions 
     

    If we were comparing a superbowl winner to a non superbowl winner I’d def side with you more, but burrow and Allen both don’t have one.  As bills fans have learned from decades of jokes, almost winning a Super Bowl isn’t worth diddly

     

    until burrow has got a Super Bowl win I think comparing playoff stats/regular season stats between Allen and burrow is more than fair .

    Bengals heading to Arizona this Sunday is going to be a pressure filled game for them.  A loss will be devastating to their season.

    Going 1-4 with the 49ers, Bills, Ravens and Chiefs yet to play would be tough hole to dig out of.

    Browns give them trouble too and they’ve also got the Seahawks left.  1-4 might be the end of their playoff hopes.  They’d probably have to finish 9-3 to have a chance which would be pretty tough even for that peak bengals team we saw last year

    AWESOME.. Any word on run block?

     

    Jax sitting at 21. Worse graded OL we'll face other than the Jests

    We face the bottom 3 offensive lines in the league still in addition to the jets lol 

     

    crazy we could be seeing all them

    With von miller

    I don't understand why opposing teams haven't figured out that you have to take Diggs out of the game, even if it means single coverage on all the other receivers or rushing just four players. Same with KC and Kelce. By doing so, you're trading a sure way to lose for a probable way to lose. The talent level between Diggs and the JAGs, including the TEs, is, well, very different. If he's not checking down, Allen has to work a lot harder to get the ball to the non-Diggs receivers. 

    Both diggs/Allen and mahomes/Kelce have such a great rapport that the receivers can improvise based on the coverage and the qbs will still know exactly where they’re gonna be.

    Kelce feels like he does a ton of damage finding weak spots in zone coverage.

     

    playing man against either of these teams gets tough too because they’ve got a lot of pretty good receivers and the qb can take off running 

     

    diggs is such a good route runner too that he’s hard to double even.  True double coverage really isn’t that successful against great wrs…I think I saw some tweet last year that diggs was open like 60% of the time anyway against double coverage

    W/e-  I just made a comment about how bad Eichenberg was and that his poor play had something to do with their performance, while reiterating two times how good we are on D.  Then the goalpost are moved in reply.  

    another example is our DL last year.  We actually invested in backups and when the starters got hurt, our backups got crushed in the playoffs.  Beanes fault? No.  
     

     

    Oh i didn’t intend on moving the goalposts or disagreeing with you lol i absolutely agree with your eichenberg point.  I was just furthering the discussion…maybe I jumped the gun but the implication seemed to be that our defense is great but the rematch will be a much different game if their offensive line is fully healthy but I would be shocked if their offensive line is fully healthy for any future game is the jist of what I was saying.  
     

    williams and armstead just absolutely cannot miss any time for them to be successful which is quite a calculated risk. 
     

    and yea I would put some blame on beane for our pass rush completely vanishing after von went down.  Investing in backups is pointless if they’re not good 😂 literally the biggest criticism we could make of beane so far is he’s thrown a ton of money at the defensive line depth and not really gotten anywhere near the return on investment up until now.

  10. I don’t want to say this didn’t age well because it comes down to personal feelings but man is this an exciting team.  Even from that poopy jets game it was pretty clear we have made big strides in the trenches 

     

    I will say though that the last few years have really made us all understand how hard it is to win a Super Bowl which is pretty discouraging at times.  The best team winning it is pretty rare to begin with and there’s 0 margin of error for the team that has to play that fateful arrowhead stadium afc championship game.  Someone’s gotta stop these fools from getting the 1 seed every season 😂

    After putting some time in rewatching the game, the connor Williams injury may have changed the game.  Liam Eichenberg played the worst game I can remember anyone playing.  On any level.  In any sport.  
     

    Our DL is great.  I’m not taking anything away from them, but I don’t think Williams would have given up some of those pressures.  They would’ve been better off with 4 offensive linemen. We’re the better team….but this one player made a huge difference in their performance imo

    I definitely agree but at what point does it become the dolphins front offices fault that they are just not pursuing quality offensive line depth.  They are one offensive line injury from a disaster at any given time which is the danger zone for a team starting terron armstead.  I don’t think there’s a team in the league that makes it through an entire season without having to shuffle olinemen due to injury 

     

    I’d file that more in the flawed team category than bad luck category 

    The bills for example lost two corners and were down a safety to start but they have quality depth at those positions so there wasn’t a big drop off

    It’s not happening.  He GM is from buffalo.

     

    let’s not forget the giants have a brutal schedule to start.

     

    they start with 5 of 6 playoff teams last year. End with eagles in 2 out of 3 and judt have Dallas mid season out of 8 games.

     

    in terms of facing playoff teams…the fewest a team would face is 4 ( their division winner twice and division winners of the two divisions they face)….the most is 14 if you are in a division with 3 wild card teams and you won and face a division in other conference with 3 wild card teams 

     

    buffalo plays fins twice, 3 pos 1st place, chiefs, chargers, 3 in nfc east. A total of 10.

    They themselves were a playoff team last year and they beat a playoff team last year though.  If ‘oh we’re playing a lot of playoff teams early’ is a valid excuse there’s major problems 

     

    I’d excuse getting stomped by the cowboys but sneaking by the cardinals and getting blown out by the Seahawks is rough

    Watching last night and my observations:

     

    Still can't draw up screens and reverses, the dline just teeing off on them

    doesn't use motion well to create space

    gets away from the run game

    WR's either are small and quick, or big and slow

    Constantly stuck in 3rd and long

    He had a trick play thrown in that absolutely blew up and killed the drive too lol I think we hit brian bingo
