    It’s a shame it didn’t work out, but it didn’t. 

    That injury was devastating…the dude was carrying the whole dline his first few games he got here and they fell off a cliff when he was out.  He had a pretty good year last year but wasn’t worth the contract even after restructuring it

    So they'll probably pickup a talented WR to fill the void while Rice & Worthy are out, and then when the playoffs come around, they will have that guy + Worthy and Rice, right on time, just like always.  In other words, they could end up with a stronger WR room by the start of the 2026 playoffs because Rice and Worthy got arrested.  ONLY the Chiefs can benefit from stuff like this.

    They miss on receivers pretty often

    Damn. He went full Von Miller.

     

    Maybe we aren't the fan base that gets to find glee in this one. Collectively, we may wanna sit this one out....

    If it was just worthy I’d completely agree but rice had a pretty serious run in with the law himself, Willie Gay was suspended for a domestic dispute  and they infamously drafted tyreek hill.  They luckily avoided the time bomb that is kadarius Toney by a couple years so can’t knock them for that one

    Edmunds and Rousseau are both mediocre 1st round picks who will not be worthy of a 2nd contract with the Bills.  Tremaine poached tackles his whole career and after 4 seasons, Groot averages 6.2 sacks.  Is that a game wrecker?...elite?....worth 20M/ yr?  

     

    Can we just admit that defensively Beane's failed in the first 3 rounds.  So much so that we resorted to desperation signing a 33 yr old pass rusher. And I guarantee you Donald made Von, not visa versa.  If by some act of God we can trade for Maxx/ Myles....at least they're still in their 20's.....

    I’ll never understand the ‘Rousseau is mediocre’ talk tbh. He is multiple tiers above Edmunds at his respective position to the point where it’s jarring seeing them mentioned in the same sentence like that 😂

     

    also von was really good pre knee injury, if anything beane is probably kicking himself for not trading for Von the season before.  It’s very likely we win the Super Bowl that year if we outbid LA for him.  Idk how Donald could’ve made Von when he only played with him like half a year haha and he was exactly the same guy before he got hurt for the bills.  5 sacks in 8 games for LA, 8 sacks in just under 10.5 games for the bills.  It’s weird how quick people forget, felt like a season altering injury when Von went down that year.  He was playing great

    I'm circling back around to my own query:

     

    Only three teams have made the playoffs in each of the last five seasons (KC, Buffalo, and Tampa). So, I thought that I would take a look at the top of their last four drafts to see if they fared any better (picking late in each round like Buffalo). [Yes, I understand it's still hard to judge the 2024 draft for any of the teams.]

     

    Buffalo (2021-2024 drafts, rounds 1-3)

    12 picks overall (3 firsts, 5 seconds, and 4 thirds). Average draft pick: 59

    Players: Greg Rousseau, Boogie Basham, Spencer Brown, Kaiir Elam, James Cook, Terrell Bernard, Dalton Kincaid, O'Cyrus Torrence, Dorian Williams, Keon Coleman, Cole Bishop, DeWayne Carter.

    Summary: 6-7 starters, 3-4 backups, 2 Busts

     

    Tampa (2021-2024 drafts, rounds 1-3)

    13 picks overall (3 firsts, 5 seconds, and 5 thirds). Average draft pick: 60

    Players: Joe Tryon-Shoyinka, Kyle Trask, Robert Hainsey, Logan Hall, Luke Goedeke, Rachaad White, Calijah Kasey, Cody Mauch, YaYa Diaby, Graham Barton, Chris Braswell, Tykee Smith, Jalen McMillan

    Summary: 7-8 starters, 4-5 backups, 1 Bust (at this point)

     

    Kansas City (2021-2024 drafts, rounds 1-3)

    11 picks overall (4 firsts, 6 seconds, and 1 third). Average draft pick: 51

    Players: Nick Bolton, Creed Humphrey, Trent McDuffie, George Karlaftis, Skyy Moore, Bryan Cook, Felix Anudike-Uzomah, Rashee Rice, Wanya Morris, Xavier Worthy, Kingsley Suamataia

    Summary: 7 starters, 3 backups, 1 Bust

     

    I'd say overall, all three teams did about the same as far as filling roles on their team. As far as impact players, K.C. probably has the edge. But, they also had one more first round pick and one more second round pick than the Bills or Bucs over that span, and KC's average pick was 8-9 spots ahead of Buffalo and Tampa.

     

    So, I don't know, what do you guys think?

     

     

    Kc wins so nobody questions them but they’ve been about the same as us draft success wise the last few years imo 

     

    Chris jones makes pretty much all their defensive picks look better than they are it feels like to me. Guys like Karlaftis would be nobodies on the bills because they’re not playing alongside an elite dlineman which makes everybody’s lives easier 
     

    Id be interested to see what happens to some of our recent defensive picks if we could pull off the Myles Garrett trade.  Guys like Rousseau would probably look elite, dbs would not have to cover nearly as long, linebackers responsibilities would be a bit different without having to supplement the pass rush as much, and so on

    Wait - was this guy head of player personnel when we drafted EJ manual in the first round? If so, no credibility 

    lol they couldn’t draft impact players picking in the early first and he’s gonna criticize the gm picking late first perennially 🤣. It’s honestly pretty hilarious 

     

    the hit late for a late first rounder isn’t much different than rounds 2-5 honestly.  Idk why people get so hung up on it.  If beane wasn’t hitting on anything then that’s obviously a huge issue.  But if we hit in rounds 1-2 and missed a few of the home run mid round picks instead it probably FEELS better but is functionally the same as what we’ve been doing

    He’s worth it. He should be a priority. He’s worth every penny. If Allen is having a bad game Cook can carry the team.

    Ehh there were a few games other running backs got hot and cook’s carries got cut it felt like…I’m not sure any rb is worth what he’s asking for in the modern nfl 

     

    heck even the eagles I don’t think had to grab saquon…their oline was so stupid good that I think a pretty good rb would’ve gone for like 1500 yards still

    I'm not going to do statistical backflips in my mind to rationalize why/how Coleman is better than Worthy...or why Coleman has a better looking future than Worthy.   

     

    My eyes told me that Worthy continued to get better as the year went on, and Keon got worse after his injury.  In the playoffs, Worthy was pretty much KC's best receiver on the field and whoever was 2nd place didn't look close.

    I don’t see the playoff thing personally,  going invisible for an entire half against that horrendous bills secondary post benford injury then following that up with getting completely shut down until post Gatorade dump in the Super Bowl are kinda red flags for me (especially the bills one 🤣). 


    really don’t think either team is gonna end up hitting on any part of that trade but we’ll see.  

     

    the grand irony of it all is the Super Bowl has to have the chiefs thinking maybe flooding the field with a bunch of speedy players that can’t run block at all isn’t the answer either.  Their fundamentally broken running game really cost them in that one, they need some WRs that are maulers in run blocking like Coleman (that can preferably get open once in awhile unlike Coleman) lol

    Reid is a great coach and I'm glad he won a SB but there's been several big games where he has been exposed as completely clueless as to how to adjust when things were going poorly. I think this last SB is probably one of the worst games he's ever coached. The TB SB loss and the last loss to Brady in the AFCCG were also great examples of Reid being a deer in the headlights.  Sirianni, did a great job in focusing his team this year and that demolition of the Chiefs will probably be seen as his finest hour. 

    Idk if this is sacrilege even on a bills board haha but I really think a lot of the chiefs problems in a game like that is mahomes but people don’t think they can blame mahomes. I have been goin back and forth on it though as you can see from my other post 🤣. I think Reid could’ve done more to help him out a bit so I’m not sure exactly how to split the blame though. 
     

     The guys footwork is terrible and he just blindly steps up in the pocket into multiple pass rushers after dancing around for awhile in those heavy pressure situations.  The chiefs were just constantly off schedule because mahomes was driving them backwards which took so much of their playbook off the table. 
     

      Feels like they just don’t go through adversity enough for him to improve in that area. Josh did the same early in his career and just went through the meatgrinder of the chiefs and ravens type defenses of the league and he’s definitely improved

    Sirianni knows his place and he knows he has a good deal going. There's something to be said for Being smart enough to stay out of your own way. 

    every head coach wants to do that imo just some don’t have that luxury. Not sure he should get any credit for that IF that’s his only strength as a head coach (it may not be…tough to know what goes on behind closed doors). Imagine Reid shipping off full playcalling duties to Matt Nagy? Lol

    It's funny because before yesterday tons of people here would swear Andy Reid is the best coach In NFL history

     

    Now he's already could been passed by siriani soon

     

    If it's that quick to get passed... Maybe Andy Reid was never close to being the best coach in NFL history

     

    He's a Hall of Fame coach for sure.. I said yesterday before the game he's not Bill belichick.. and I stand by that

    Yea I feel like if he lost a close one here or if they battled but lost a two score game or something like that my view of Reid wouldn’t have changed at all..  but that KC offensive staff pretty much just sh*t itself this game lol

     

    Maybe some was mahomes going rogue it’s tough to factor for that but it looks like the coaches were intent on running the same long developing zone beater plays that just weren’t working without attempting any of the quick hitters behind the line of scrimmage stuff they’ve been known for or running the ball at all 

  12. 2 hours ago, Buffalo_Stampede said:

    Eagles did the opposite of the Bills. Bills were in press man the majority of the game vs KC and the Eagles ran off zone. lol.


    Eagles didn’t do anything special. They just executed and bothered Mahomes.

     

    Really felt like the chiefs were trying to lose this game on offense lol. The longer I’ve had to think about it the more I’m baffled.  


    whatever they did would’ve been a struggle but they seemed to straight up abandon a lot of the underneath stuff/screens that got them this far and just refused to run the ball.

    Who did the Chiefs have that could’ve scared us? We could’ve played them tighter, and a play or two of Oliver or Rousseau getting home could have absolutely been a difference in that game.

     

    Forgetting how easily the Chiefs carved us.. 8 yards, 12 yards. Sometimes it looked like the Bills weren’t even ready to begin the okay and the Chiefs just moved the ball ten yards forward while the Bills were busy picking the noses. 
     

    There it is really. McDermott wins the Super Bowl as Philly’s HC

     

    Beane, you hearing this???

     

    I mean any pretty good wr is gonna look great against Elam and Douglas lol Douglas was bad all year after a good first year here not sure what happened to him. I don’t think we expected that big of a regression.   Elam was atrocious.  chiefs would’ve scored 100 if those guys pressed with the way our dline played 


    The eagles gameplan does not work without the pass rush and pass coverage both pulling their weight 

     

  14. 7 minutes ago, bmur66 said:

    Yes. My only interest in watching the game was to see how the Eagles went about shutting down KC on defense. Fangio put on a clinic. I hope the Bills paid attention.

    Mcd ran the only defense that gave us a chance with the players he had available, you can’t mix in a bunch of press man if your 4 man rush isn’t getting home and you have mediocre dbs on the back end.  It’s really more on player acquisition imo…I hope they’ll do their best in the Myles Garrett sweepstakes after watching that Super Bowl.  Probably need to hit on a corner or too also. 
     

    I don’t think mcd would’ve done anything differently than fangio if he was coaching that Philly defense last night

    It’s the same defensive philosophy.  Philly just had better talent to pull it off.  
     

    Also, let’s not forget that Kansas City and Mahomes probably played their worst game in years..maybe their worst game ever.  It was a rarity

    Rattled mahomes is all over the place…I just don’t think he goes through adversity enough to improve in that area.  The dude was holding the ball too long and just stepping up right into the pressure..  his footwork was terrible. Any time a dline gets him to lose composure early he just melts down it’s just very rare that a team is able to do that to them

    There's no narrative anymore, it's a foregone conclusion that they one-upped us here. For all the work you put into massaging those stats, I'll offer this simple counterpoint: go watch that game again. Worthy is an absolute weapon that has to be schemed for and accounted for on every snap and he was a major reason why our team is heading to Cancun, while Keon is trending towards a WR 4/5 role. I'm sorry but anyone here that would still take Coleman over Worthy at this point has their fan goggles on so tight they can't be objective.

    I really don’t get worthy, is he getting open and mahomes just isn’t throwing it to him?  He’s good against man with a free release but seems like he gets lost when he’s jammed.  
     

    An ‘absolute weapon that you have to account for on every snap’ doesn’t completely disappear in the second half of the afc championship against that awful

    bills secondary.  I’ve seen you hyping up his afc championship performance a few times and that kinda has me puzzled.  26 yards of his were absolute bollocks…that one play was def not a completion.  he had a pretty good first half in the 40 ish receiving yards area accounting for that then mostly vanished.  
     

    tonight in crunch time he was completely locked up.  Pretty sure he had 1 target for  a 1 yard completion before the game got very out of hand and 2 targets for 10 total yards by the time it got completely out of hand 


    the dude probably saw as many snaps as most rookie WRs ever have and had a pretty ok season?  Like I’m just not seeing it honestly.  Chiefs are probably wishing we didn’t make the trade so they could’ve grabbed mcconkey deep down 🤣


    better than Coleman yea maybe I guess we’ll see.  Coleman was actually ahead of worthy’s pace pre injury. But this notion we traded them some absolutely game breaking wr I’m just not understanding

    What’s confusing?  He wasn’t a difference maker, he’s a complimentary one trick pony.  Yay he caught a garbage time TD in a dome.   
     

    All tonight proved is we need defensive help.  Eagles couldn’t beat the Chiefs or get back to the Super Bowl even until they did what?  Got a run game and upgraded their defense.  
     

    Yet people on here talking about a WR again who isn’t even the type of WR we lack?  It’s getting old, it’s like Groundhogs Day around here.  
     

     

    It’s just the bills board being the bills board 🤣. Any wr the chiefs drafted if we picked worthy would’ve performed as well as worthy did for them this year or better.

     

    their pick is almost definitely mcconkey if we take worthy and boy would that have been the nightmare scenario haha

    Trying to not be defeastist, but us trading for a Garrett or a Crosby only for the Chiefs to land a top 5 OT in the third round to stymie them feels like fate.

    they’ve really gotta upgrade both tackle spots. Taylor is an atrocious run blocker, he’s not terrible in pass protection though. Trey Smith is a free agent and will probably walk also so they’re chasing IOL too

     

    gotta pay Bolton and mcduffie has a big extension coming up I’d think.  They’re kind of up against it.  Mcduffie is gonna get a humongous deal so not much they can do in FA for the oline either the next couple years. 

  19. 7 minutes ago, FireChans said:

    What really sucks is that we need to beat KC and the year to punish them for mismanaging their OT’s was THIS year.

     

    I expect them to take 1 or even 2 OT’s in the first 3 rounds. Probably sign someone too.

     

    Sigh

    They’ve actually come back down to earth a bunch because they’ve been spending resources to shore up the tackle positions for years and keep blowing it lol

     

    its not like they haven’t known they’ve had an issue there that they’ve been trying to fix

    I think it’s a coping mechanism for some since the Bills weren’t in the game. They’ve convinced themselves we wouldn’t have had a chance - like we didn’t have a chance against the Ravens, everyone’s most feared opponent. Go back and watch the first half of that Ravens game, some of you forget how great the Bills can be when they’re clicking on all cylinders. They weren’t clicking like that against the Chiefs; different Sunday, different opponent, different location. The Eagles blasting the Chiefs does not automatically mean they do the same to the Bills. I won’t cope with that belief.

    We 60% would’ve lost a close game and 40% would’ve won imo 

     

    chiefs had to move thuney to tackle down the stretch this year which hurt their running game and made them absurdly one dimensional.  Their playcalling was abysmal in this one not sure what happened there, I’m pretty sure the eagles were all over their snap count too and the chiefs didn’t seem to mix it up at all.  Bills would’ve played a much better game…the offensive balance would’ve gone a long way  

     

    chiefs are getting a lot of benefit of the doubt since they’ve won superbowls before which I get, but they were absolutely awful in this one.   it’s coming off more as ‘the eagles were so good that they even made the amazing chiefs look bad’ when it really shouldn’t be imo. That was a ‘would’ve lost to the raiders’ type effort 🤣
