The thing about the defensive injuries is that you got pretty much the same game out of the guys that played today as the last 2 KC playoff losses. The defense wasn't noticeably worse.
They gave up 9 yards a play for most almost the entire game for God's sake, they were WAY worse! Think the Chiefs ended at 7.7 Yards per Play but that is still terrible.
The only reason it didn't seem that bad is because the Bills had the ball so much and ran like 30 more plays than the Chiefs did to get almost the exact same yardage total. I think the Bill ended up with like 7 more yards than the Chiefs did for the game.

He may have gotten the throw to diggs off…it’s hard to say. I’m sure he saw Dawkins getting backed up but he just needed like a split second more fight out of him and we probably win. Even if you hit that throw to diggs it’s still an uphill battle getting into the end zone
Just shows how insanely close the margins are in these type of games. A split second on that play turns it from an incompletion to a TD.

In the Allen playoff years which is 10 playoff games, McD's Defense played well ONCE. In every other game it played bad the whole game or at key moments that either lost us the game (Houston) or nearly lost the game (Indy - remember the Bills had a 24 - 10 4th quarter lead and almost lost).
Given that McD is a defensive coach and Bean has fashioned D heavy roster this is unacceptable. The Bills are wasting the prime years of Allen's career. If they don't see it you have to wonder if that organization is worth our hard earned money and time.
Just not true.
Beat Baltimore 17-3.
Beat Pats 47-17.
Beat Steelers 31-17.
I thought all those were pretty good performances defensively. Steelers literally only made it close because the Bills fielded a preseason D for much of the 2nd half.

Yes McDermott made Bass 25% in the playoffs. Think about that 25% has a kicker ever had a worse playoffs?
And still it's McDermott...God people.
Greg Joseph?

At least not from that formation it wasn't.
Am I the only one who thinks that if Cook bounced that outside he might have scored? There was lilterally nobody outside the last guy on the line and he crashed down hard. Cook might have jogged into the endzone, or at the very least got tackled inside the 10 by the safety coming over. They had 9 guys on the LOS, there was nobody past the first wave.

No guarantee Diggs would have caught it. Wouldn’t doubt it if Josh had that thought in the back of his mind. Diggs had one of the worst performances I’ve ever seen out of him.
Has Diggs ever shown up past the wildcard round for the Bills?
2023 - Divisional Round against KC: 3 catches on 8 targets for 21 yards.
2022 - Divisional Round against CIN: 4 catches on 10 targets for 35 yards.
2021 - Divisional Round against KC: 3 catches on 6 targets for 7 yards.
2020 - Divisional Round against BAL: 8 catches on 11 targets for 106 yards, 1 TD
2020 - AFC Champ Game against KC: 6 catches on 11 targets for 77 yards
Seems the last 3 seasons outside the wildcard round he has pulled a disappearing act. I mean 10 catches on 24 targets with only 63 yards and 0 TDs? That is pretty abysmal for a #1 WR on a team that scores the way we do.

I love Josh to death but why would he pass up a wide open Stef underneath, a possible first down to drain more clock to instead try and score a TD leaving 1:50 on the clock against a player that beat the Bills with only 13 seconds left? The goal was very simple here. It’s to score a TD with almost no time left especially when only a field goal is all the Bills need to extend the game so it wasn’t like the Bills needed a TD on that down. I know he doesn’t have a coach that will hold him accountable like Dabol would but we are on year six here where he should already know the situation. I love Josh we owe all these playoff years to him but I’m so dissapointed that he wouldn’t be able to dissect that situation for what it was. I can’t put that one on Sean as much as I have wanted him gone for a few years😭😭
Because you never make assumptions that you will have another opportunity at a later time for a TD when it's available right now. Anything could have happened. A sack, tipped ball INT, a receiver fumbling the ball, etc...
Playing like you "know" you can just score at some later time isn't a luxury you get in the NFL.

Maybe the worst call I’ve ever seen. You can’t tell me that McD’s personal beliefs weren’t involved with giving that play the OK. That alone was a fireable play
Chiefs had 10 men on the field, Bills had 8 blockers to 6 rushers for the Chiefs. Should have been an easy first down. Honestly inexcusable they didn't get it done well enough.

For a lot more money than we were willing to give him...the Chiefs passed too.

Don’t forget Kincaid who single-handedly saved TWO fumbles from becoming turnovers. Beyond impressed with those two kids. Way more heart today than Diggs displayed, for example.
He can’t play that role. He’s a slot.I think he can. He did in college. He gets separation. Led the NFL in average yards of separation against man coverage his rookie year and was likely high again this year. Haven't seen those numbers come out yet.

You were one-half Chris Jones step from becoming a Buffalo legend tonight.
Looking forward to seeing more of you next year.
Gonna likely step into Davis #2 role next year and likely will put up 800+ yards in it. I have high hopes for him. The dude is a baller.

Sacrilege I know, but I can't help but thinking that he knows how to win with a good QB. Would'nt have been going for a fake punt with that ridiculous field position, for instance.
Chiefs had 10 guys on the punt return and the Bills had an 8 person to 6 person advantage in blockers versus rushers. Honestly it was the right call and really inexcusable they got blown up the way they did.
-
Davis - GONE
Hyde - Maybe a cheap deal to come back?
Floyd - GONE - likely too expensive after the season he put up with double digit sacks
Dodson - probably resigned for depth, not likely a huge payday awaiting him
Jackson - probably resigned for depth, not likely a huge payday awaiting him
AJE - Unsure...could go either way...might be a team out there that values him and pays him more than the Bills can afford.
Rapp - GONE - made a great play against Miami in week 18 but was best known for taking out our own players throughout the season with friendly fire on D
Jones - Need to figure out a way to resign him...he is so so good, they CANNOT afford to lose him.
Settle - GONE - played decent this year but never became what they thought they would be getting
Phillips - GONE - liability against the run and wasn't that dominant this year against the pass like last year - always seem to injure himself diving at QBs.
Joseph - GONE - he was a stopgap mostly
Lawson - could probably get his resigned for a decent price. Quality edge setter usually in the run game.
Sherfield - GONE - please go.
Edwards - could probably resign him for depth unless another team views him as a starter and is willing to pay him like one.
Murray - GONE - wrong side of 30, was ineffective late in the year
Johnson - would like to see him resigned...quality depth player who made things happen every time he touched the ball. Likely won't command a huge deal in UFA
Harris - GONE - might have to retire anyways
Lewis - probably resign as a depth player. Has little market as a UFA
Allen - GONE - Bills unlikely to keep backups more than a year unless they get a rookie.

Multiple dropped passes, including 3 deep passes. The Diggs and Sherfield drops were inexcusable with both hitting their arms (ball literally bounced off their bicep).
And even worse than that, NO ONE could get separation. None of our receivers.
Keep Shakir. Keep Diggs (we have no choice honestly, financially). And rebuild the entire rest of the WR block.
Shakir was open by 3-4 yards in the endzone for a TD and Allen couldn't step into the throw with Jones in his face...but agree, they need to find guys that can get open.
I wouldn't hate it if they went WR with picks 1 and 2. McD can turn anyone into a pretty good player at DB so they don't need to be wasting high picks there.

Not the way the D line played. I’m not sure how much a difference he makes.
Mahomes looked comfortable and wasn’t sacked.
I mean the ripple down effect sure it’s possible with him we get that one stop.
Our D line was atrocious
Bernard is the one who makes the adjustments for them. Not surprising the on field adjustments were terrible.
I wouldn't care if the Bills went WRin round 1 AND 2 this year. The way McD can basically turn 6th and 7th round DBs into good players, they can ill afford to waste high picks on D while not addressing WR again big time.

They must hold a legitimate competition and bring a serious kicking prospect into camp to push Bass. He might be shot. Mentally shot. Push him to be better.They might bring in a kicker, but he isn't getting cut. They can't afford to do it.

We win this game with Bernard.

I've been calling a spade a spade for a long time. The typical response here is I'm a troll.
On to next season folks..
It was a turbulent season to say the last. To be honest, I'm not even taking the loss too harshly. I knew it was a very real possibility. Kind of half expected it because that's what the Bills do. Fall short in the playoffs. So in a sense, I'm a little numb to the disappointment.
It was an entertaining game. The Bills played hard and didn't lose because of effort. It was execution and a great KC team that knows how to win. Come playoff time the Chiefs are a different teams than in the regular season. So many here failed to see, recognize, or admit this. The Bills are somewhat the opposite. Great regular and fall short in the playoffs. So many here fail to see, recognize, or admit this.
Tonight was a glaring example of a team, coaching staff, and players that know how to win. Folks, that team is the KC Chiefs. They came into building of the Bills Mafia and handled business.
Once again, the Buffalo Bills fall short. It's not unfamiliar territory.
Just getting sick of the Bills missing huge numbers of key players by the end of the season year after year while other teams are pretty much healthy. The D clearly was compromised heavily and was bascially a shell of itself. Hard not to be when you are down to your 3rd string LB playing with a torn labrum and then a dude off the practice squad trying to cover Kelce much of the game. Talk about a mismatch. Douglas was also a liability tonight...he couldn't run or change directions very well...Elam should have been playing for him in the 2nd half.

Andy Reid totally owns McD and his scheme and always will. McD will never beat him when it matters.
Ehh...I don't know. This game came down to players making/not making plays when needed and Allen getting hit as he threw to wide open Shakir in the end zone. At some point, the players have to be the ones to make the difference.

Josh carried the Bills tonight. But the difference in the end? Mahomes came up clutch when he needed to. Josh didn’t. It’s unusual for him, but it came at the most ill opportune time. Goodness knows what they do now - if we were lost at QB this would be the perfect time to rip it up and start again, but you cannot waste a year of his career like that. Feels lost at the moment and I’d be perfectly happy if McDermott is fired, Brady axed and Bass let go tomorrow.
Had a TD to Shakir that ended up short due to being hit as he threw by Chris Jones...I can't really complain about it...just a good play by the DT who was mostly silent all night long. Multiple drops on long dimes by Allen to Sherfield and then to Diggs. McD doesn't have anything to do with that. He was aggressive all night, I can't really pin this on him. The D simply was being held together by duct tape and even the guys who were playing hurt were clearly not anywhere near 100%. Douglas was a liability out there and should have been subbed for Elam, IMO.

Once the Bills new stadium opens up and they get off the old Native American Burial Ground the current stadium is built on maybe.
"Besides the family and other early European settlers, it is also stated on the historical marker that an early Erie Native American village was located on the site of the stadium. That's right, here, where our beloved Bills take the field most Sundays in the fall and winter, are the remains of a cemetery and a village!"

Divisional Playoffs - Chiefs at Bills - Post game thread
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
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.
