    Gut feeling...how would we have fared against Philly?

    in The Stadium Wall

    Posted · Edited by Brand J

    I’ll base it on how KC performs, since both teams are similar, but I think it would’ve been a close, hard fought game with the Bills prevailing. Eagles aren’t better than the Ravens. Actually wouldn’t have mind losing to the Ravens if we were just going to lose to the Chiefs again. 

     

    Next year is a long way away, sigh.

    Benford injury killed us

    Part of it was the same fearful tactic we saw against Cincy in the playoffs. CBs way off the WRs while we blitz. Ridiculous, but we did bring the CBs up after they torched us for a bit. That bit was on the coaching. 

     

    Elam spent his whole college career playing man coverage and grabbing receivers at the top of their routes. He still doesn’t have a good feel for zone and he can’t stick with agile receivers without grabbing them. I think he’s only still on the team because his whole contract is fully guaranteed. 

     

    The only reason we drafted him is because Kansas City jumped us for McDuffie and we desperately needed a corner back. Thank goodness Beane was smart enough to double up and take Benford later in that draft. 

    Desperation will always bite you. Off the top of my head, CBs to go after Elam were Kyle Gordon (2nd), Cam Taylor-Britt (2nd), Deron Bland (4th), Tyrique Woolen (5th), and Jaylen Watson (7th). McDuffie wasn’t the last good CB. Bet there’s more I’m missing too.

    Allen's worse pass of night was to the wrong ref

    Yeah.  That's my mistake.  I got worked up because of the darn Twitter tweet before watching it back in real time.

     

     

    You can see why Spags blitzes are so effective. Seven players on the LoS, Josh thought the blitzer was coming from his left and two came from the right. Protection was slid the wrong way, Edwards didn’t even have anyone to block. Well schemed. I wonder if we ran an aggressively creative scheme like it, could we stop Mahomes like Spags stopped Brady?

    Kincaid - what happened?

    Kincaid better bust his ass in the offseason. He’s soft like Charmin, his hands is terrible, and he struggles to get open. 

    I want to see him coming into camp next year looking jacked up. He needs to work on his body and strength and needs to spend hours catching from the JUGs machine, mainly diving type of catches since those are the ones he seems to keep dropping. Buyers remorse, wish we could get a redo on the Elam and Kincaid picks. Those 2 missed first round draft picks could be contributing meaningful minutes.

    Dalton Kincaid- why so underwhelming this season?

    I’d be cool if Beane never traded up again. He tried to do it for Cole Bishop in the second round this year too and said afterwards “thankfully no one took my calls.” There will almost always be someone better who goes later than the guy selected. It’s not where someone is picked that matters, it’s who. I get why Beane went for Kincaid, but we didn’t need to trade up for a TE. Trade down and accumulate ammo if anything.

    Is the AFC Championship the "actual" Super Bowl??

    I look at the Eagles as Baltimore-lite and that’s mainly because Hurts isn’t the same dynamic threat as Lamar. Good QB, yes, but  a clear notch or two below the better QBs in the league.
     

    When Philly and Baltimore played earlier this year, the Ravens should’ve won, if not for Tucker missing multiple kicks. If the Bills bring their A game, they’ll beat all of these teams.

    Yeah, I can see where it might be tough to recall the last time that happened since it's now been almost a whole week(!) since they were the best unit on the field and completely dominated the Ravens OLine. :lol:

    The DL has never gotten the better of the KC OL in the playoffs. If they wreck shop up front tomorrow and can disrupt Mahomes, it’s over for the Chiefs.

    Spread has moved from -1.5 to -2.5 for KC. Concerning? I know there’s probably a lot of late money that hasn’t come in yet but the line moving away from us makes me nervous 

    I heard 70-75% of the money coming in is on the Bills, so wouldn’t the line move KC’s way to entice more bettors to throw money on KC?

    Bishop and Hamlin would be the worst S pairing in the NFL. Hamlin had Andrews in man on the 2 point conversion. Good luck with Kelce. Not feeling good about this at all

    I put that more on Benford and has lack of recognition. His assignment crashed down on the line, tight into the muck of players. There was nowhere for that receiver to go to make himself available for Lamar. With his assignment’s first steps toward the OL, Benford should’ve stayed wide, but hesitated for a moment like he wasn’t sure where to go and that hesitation got Andrews open. If the communication was for Benford to always stay wide, don’t let anyone get outside of him, he makes that stop pretty easy. If the play was for the receiver Benford was covering, there’s no way he would’ve been able to stick with him anyway through the mess of bodies. Don’t let anyone out flank you!
