    Diggs traded to Texans for picks

    I thought the Kyle Brandt take was interesting for a similar reason.  He said it's hard to imagine that Diggs relationship with Josh Allen or his relationship with the Bills "or both" had nothing to do with this, because both were "mercurial at best".  Kyle has been a Josh Allen fan-boy for a couple of years, and we can probably assume he has a bit of "tea" in the pot "off the record" there.
     

    I agree with Nate that Josh's input was probably sought (not his vote as Geary implies, but his input), and that if Josh had said "He's My Guy" and went to the mat, it probably doesn't go down, at least not for a bag of peanuts and a case of that underwear Stef and his brother shill for.

     

    I think Diggs wanted out for a while. Given that there is no reason for Josh to push for Diggs to stay. That is true whether they have a positive or negative personal relationship. Once Diggs wanted out, it was just about finding a trade the team felt benefitted them more than hanging onto Diggs.

    Agree there. Just don't ask tax payers to build something for you. Charge all you want for your product but seems tax payers in effect own part of Mr. Pegulas product namely the stadium.

     

    Negotiating lower prices or PSL caps wasn't part of the deal, apparently. 

    Fake punt!?

    I disagree.  I think he did a pretty amazing job with the D considering the endless tidal wave of injuries.

    No issues as a DC, but at HC he has some glaring deficiencies.  

     

    They are referring to Smiley, the special teams coach... not Clappy, the head coach.

    Anyone else more low-key about this loss than you thought you'd be?

    I'm disappointed but not crushed. Of there wasn't a chance of losing, they wouldn't play the game so we have to accept it. I felt like we almost created another epic debacle with the fake punt. It would have been like 13 seconds again. But instead we got bailed out and fought until the end, then lost. So while it is essentially the same outcome as the 13 seconds game (we go home and the Chiefs go to the AFC championship), it doesn't feel as bad. Maybe that's because with the injuries I felt we were barely hanging onto this game, whereas in 13 seconds it really seemed like we had it won and lost it. Whatever the reason it isn't quite as bad emotionally as a game where we blow a late lead or one where we get robbed by the refs. We just didn't make enough plays to win.

    Unfortunately you have to punt it in that situation but our punter was also 50% out there which is another head scratcher. Guy shanking punts left and right 

     

     

    One has to wonder how bad Haack looked for them to choose to go with Martin.

    Divisional Playoffs - Chiefs at Bills - Post game thread

    In all fariness, there are not a lot of teams recently that can point to their D being the difference in playoff games with the way the NFL is designed these days.  It favors the offense pretty heavily. See the Chiefs - Eagles Super Bowl last year.

     

    How can you distinguish "the Bills offense didn't do enough" from "the Chiefs defense made the difference"?

     

    Mahomes and the Chiefs offense scored 27 against an injury plagued Bills defense which was solid before injury.

    Allen and the Bills offense scored 24 against a mostly healthy (but less so after injuries in game) Chiefs D that was ranked like #2 in some stats.

     

    I don't see that you can easily say which one "made the difference". If our defense was healthier, maybe the Chiefs only score 20 or 23.

    Allen was legendary (even better than 13 seconds Allen)

    I think scheming works against zone. Against man which the Chiefs play a ton of, you simply need your guys to win their 1v1s. Our guys weren't doing that tonight. You can only call so many versions of crossing routes and rub routes.

     

    He still hit some of them in their hands and they dropped the ball. I saw Mahomes miss some throws, I did not see any KC drops (other than those caused by a defender).
