No one motioned. There wasn't enough time for this. Which is why they didn't even run it. If KC runs a deep over, games over. They barely had time to throw a quick hitter to Kelce and call a T.O. You mentioned the previous drive with the deep slant to Hill. That took 8 seconds to get him the ball and for him to get into field goal range (it took him almost 12 seconds to get into the endzone). There was only 6 seconds left when Mahomes released the ball. You can defend this all you want, but the conclusion is always the same - we messed up. We are not talking about playing press man (although telling Wallace to grab Kelce and hold onto him for dear life would have been a far better scenario, even with the 5 yard holding penalty). We are simply talking about not letting KC run 18 yards downfield without a single defender touching him. There is a reason why we have NEVER run that defense again in the closing seconds since 13 seconds. Even if Wallace gets beat, Kelce having to fight through him for a couple seconds likely ends the game.

lol I don't think the players were confused or wanted answers about getting beat for a TD. They likely wanted answers for why we didnt squib kick with 13 seconds left, and why we played so far off Kelce, allowing him to go 20+ yards to get into field range in a matter of seconds.

I would have so much respect for him if he did this. I love when coaches are brutally honest. I truly believe it also helps the players. I was so shocked when I heard McKenzie say that the coaches didnt even give the players any answers for what went wrong in 13 seconds.

Several logical fallacies here. Non sequitur, false equivocation, post hoc ergo propter hoc, etc. There is a critical distinction between winning regular winning season games and achieving a specific outcome (a Super Bowl). A coach winning many games shows potential but doesn't directly prove the ability to reach the Super Bowl, which is a specific achievement requiring overcoming all playoff opponents, which in this case, the coach has shown no ability to do. Thus, your argument diverts attention from the ultimate goal (Super Bowl appearance) to a related but different measure of success (winning regular season games). This essentially shifts the conversation logic. After all, if the logic wasn't moved, it would be easy to see that he has a losing record in the playoffs, rather a winning record, which would make the opposite point of your argument.

Same feeling I got. The message of "just keep trying and eventually it'll work" is not ideal. That's not the way life works. Thousands of scientists have died at 80 some years old having never proved their theorem, and plenty of mechanical engineers have passed on without every completing their invention, etc etc etc. It doesn't just "eventually work". You have to continually evolve.

I guess not at your store. At any near me, yes! People were actually marking them up and selling them online. (Unless you mean generic Bills bags. Those are always available.)

Not at mine - only $1.99.

There’s a McDermott bag too. Has this picture on it 😉

We averaged 26 points per game when Knox was out. We lost against Denver because we had 12 defenders on the field. And we lost against Philly after scoring 34 points. Maybe he would have helped against Cinci 🤷🏻‍♂️

Just FYI: Been trying to purchase the Allen grocery bags for a while and they’re very rare to find, but Wegmans just re-stocked them. Go quick if you want one. I grabbed a couple.

Yeah I got ganged up on in this thread for being right. That being said, I don't mind having Knox on the team. I think he really does add something both from his blocking ability and his leadership. I just never thought that those skills were worth a top 5 TE contract. It's just wild to think he makes only $1M less a year than Travis Kelce, and yet averages only 34 receptions per year.

I love Josh Allen and there is no other QB I would take in the NFL over him. That's all I have to say.

"Defensive timeouts don't count"

I hope he proves me wrong but Shorter has the feel of one of those high-ceiling prospects that never pans out.

Sigh. You are your own worst enemy.

The way the forum logic works is that every time someone respond to a thread, it "bumps" the thread up to the top of the page where more people see the thread and then click on it and post within it. If *you* don't like a thread, here are your best options: 1) Don't click it. If you do not click on the thread title, you will not enter the thread. If you do not enter the thread, you won't have to be subjected to opinions that aggravate you so much. 2) If you don't have the willpower NOT to click the thread title, then the second best option is to NOT REPLY in the thread. Every time you reply in a thread you hate, you push it back towards the top of the page. If your goal is to make it go away, you should do the opposite of what you have done nearly 10 times in this thread - reply. I hope I was able to help.

Yeah I wasn’t going to “out” him like that, but yeah…. @R. Rich is friends with him too. Its a small world.

He was a great person and was active in the school that my family is in. One of his children is good friends with one of mine. Young man with 4 young children and a wife. I can’t imagine what they’re going through right now. If you feel like blessing a young family that really needs it right now, I will include the link below. These are good people and I assure you every dollar would help. https://www.gofundme.com/f/james-morgante .

Can we ADD wind coming in from the sides to push Bass’s slices back inside the upright? Im thinking some sort of dam system where we open large hydraulic doors that let in wind at key moments!

Not building a dome is going to be a topic of conversation for another 50 years 😂. Especially in 20 years when the cost of domes will be $10 Billion, there will be a ton of fans screaming “we could have done it for only $500 million more!!!!”.

Yeah… I truly don’t understand the posters who are happy with going on forever as long as we competitive. I’m fine with a bit more time… but FOREVER!? I just don’t understand that mindset. It’s like settling for being a continual loser (but one of the better losers).

I have zero proof but it just seems improbable that McD has no say in this.

No. I wouldn't. He is truly a bad QB. If we had to turn to him, I'd have zero faith we win the game.
