  1. He was impressive. But not quite in the same league as someone sitting in their underpants in their armchair, drinking pepsi and shouting 'this guy doesn't know what it takes to WIN in life'

  2. The Morning after - and I'm not so mad anymore. ***** happens and I've enjoyed this - very frustrating -  season.

     

    My conclusion is we lost it in the first half, under Dorsey, trying too much to pacify Diggs and losing to terrible teams. The number 1 seed is everything. 

     

    From 6-6 we bust our team up trying to make up ground. It was incredible sequence of vicyories, but to play, effectively, 7 'win or go home' playoff games back to back with no let up , led to injuries and did us in. We couldn't get a moments rest and, personnel wise, that told. 

     

    We didn't lose one game this year by more than 7 points. But that would have changed next week, I think. A healthy, relaxed Baltimore would have gone through us like the Chinese through Tibet. 

     

    Next year it's got to be No 1 seed or go home.

    I agree. If by DeAndre Hopkins, you mean Matt Milano, Terrel Bernard, and Christian Benford.

     

    We possessed the ball 8 times. We scored on 4 and would have scored on 5 if Bass hadn't missed. Josh Allen played with his hair on fire. Guys like Shakir, Kincaid, and Cook were making plays when called upon. Diggs made some plays and had some drops. 

     

    It wasn't lack of offense that did us in. Josh was an absolute monster. It was a decimated Defense. Many of the reserves clearly playing injured. Douglas couldn't follow guys downfield. The simplest move in the open field, even by Mahomes and he was lost. Dodson played hurt, went down, and kept playing. Klein rolled his ankle and kept playing on it. The Special Teams was an albatross. Martin was clearly still hurt, giving them short fields when he did have to punt. And Bass? Well.... I don't want to talk about that.

     

    Even if he made that kick, it's clear that the Defense would have folded again as they were driving with no issue before the kneel down. Simply didn't have the Defensive personnel to stop Mahomes and company on the field. I don't think 1 player was going to put more than 10 more points on the board. 

     

    amen. 

  4. There is just no way we would beat that Baltimore team away with this banged up team. They are almost at full strength and have top players all across their roster. 

     

    So it's gutting that we couldn't stick it up Mahomes for the fun of it. But this loss didn't cost us the Superbowl, IMO. 

     

    We were going home next week anyway. I'm certain of it. 

     

    We will only win a SB if we've got a fairly fit squad. This year, sadly, the players had to give too much in too many games late on.

  5. I thought this was a bs post at first, but i was wrong. he really was poor today. big game players are supposed to show in big games and he didn't. 

     

    we've had his family criticising the team mid season.

     

    and, as someone said elsewhere, forcing the ball to him cost us easy games this year

     

    yeah, i owe the OP an apology. he was right and i was wrong. diggs really hasn't delivered this season - not as a player nor as a captain

    Getting to 6-6 was pretty special too - just not in a good way.

     

    Yep. I think that's what did for us.

     

    I think we need the number 1 seed to win the SB. We blew that chance early this year. 

     

    There is NO way we beat Baltimore on the road this banged up. 

     

    Lost too many winnable games - mostly under Dorsey. Playoffs were a kind of achievement. But if we'd got the 1 seed, with so many QBs missing from other franchises, this really could have been the year

    The mating call of the loser.

     

    Winners go home with the prom queen.......

     

    He sounds more like a man to me. Doesn't cry and throw things and throw blame at everyone cos he didn't get what he wants. 

     

    A man who can handle the pain defeat isn't a loser. Any more than a man who can't handle the pain defeat is a winner.
