  1. All 3 games in the playoffs the other team scored on their first drive.
  2. Well when both announcers and the rules analyst who happens to be a multi Super Bowl reffing former NFL referee and was head of officials for quite a while says it was BS, it's probably BS.
  3. Expecting an extension of Dawkins/Allen to free up cap space and release of Miller...can get to a point we have over 30 mil in cap space with just those moves...I' sure Beane has more up his sleeve tho.
  4. It wasn't only on those 2 plays, it was a consistent issue where even Nantz was incredulous eventually that he kept saying the Bills pick up a first down and then had to correct himself and say "the officials are marking it short!". Happened at least 7 or 8 times. Never seen it before. A few times? Sure. Almost every time it happened? Never.
  5. This seems almost too far fetched to believe... They said the reason there wasn't one like there is almost after every game is that none of the reporters covering the game asked for there to be one. What?? You mean NOBODY wanted to figure out what happened with that 4th down spot or even worse why the Bills kept being marked a foot or two short when it seemed like a clear first down in every other game I've watched this year, including the play before the 4th down play to Kincaid? Something doesn't smell right. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/inside-the-pool-report-process-which-wasnt-activated-as-to-the-key-play-in-bills-chiefs
  6. They were complaining about spots a lot of the game actually...there were at least 7 or 8 times where Nantz said the Bills picked up a first down and then almost in shock had to correct himself and say "the official is now marking him short!". Cannot ever remember a game where the ball consistently was being marked short of first downs for the Bills almost every time. Watched Bills games for 40 years and haven't ever seen anything like that and definitely never heard the announcers incredulous as to it continuing to happen over and over.
  7. I mean who really has? They will likely win 3 straight Super Bowls and 4 of the last 5.
  8. If the bar is being set at "he has to go because he can't beat Reid in the playoffs", well I mean, nobody beats Reid in the playoffs. So literally every coach in the NFL should get fired then. He has beaten Mahomes/Reid more than any other coach. We need to just do it in the postseason. Will we, who knows? Firing someone who actually does beat him when nobody else in the league does seems a little short sighted.
  9. A little better spot fdom the refs who always seemingly give every possible advantage to KC in games would be helpful. Don't think I have ever seen announcers wondering how the ball is marked short of a first down *again* as Nantz and Romo were last night. It happened like 7 or 8 times throughout the game...appeared to be an obvious first down, then the official spots the ball and somehow it's a foot or two short. Nantz was calling it into question and then must have been told by the network to relax because he stopped doing it. Small things that give the Chiefs small advantages done over and over again eventually lead to just enough for them to win in these games. Last year, that was on us and the D being beat to hell. This year...still on us but c'mon...never seen the ball marked short so many times in a single game on what appeared to be obvious first downs. Would it have made a difference? Who knows...all I know is that it definitely didn't help.
  10. You mean other than when they made plays?
  11. Brady is 35. I would be willing to bet that Brady is better than Reid was, by Reid's own admission, when he was 35. I have no idea how some of you operate but in the real world, like at your job, you understand that when someone is new in position, there will be some growing pains at first until he gains experience. There is no place where you succeed without failing first. Failure is your best teacher if it's used properly. Firing someone who leads the team to franchise records for touchdowns and points is the height of idiocy and the definition of knee jerk reaction. Sorry, not sorry.
  12. You don't need to be a coach to not massively overreact to the last game. My God man, step back from the ledge. Embarrassing. Go back to playing Franchise mode in Madden
  13. Thank God you aren't GM. Knee jerk reactions don't do any good. Nobody in their right mind is firing Brady after what he did after his first full year with this offense.
  14. Why? Those dudes they had when they were top 5 in defense multiple years and #1 at least once looked no different against the Chiefs than the defense from last night in the playoffs. They just need an average defense and they need to get more offensive playmakers.
  15. Well, let's see what happens in the Eagles game because they do have an interior line that can do that.
  16. Honestly starting to feel that way... Look at all the franchises around sports in the last 5-10 years that won it's first championship in franchise history or hadn't won in like 70+ years. It never seems like it's going to be our turn for whatever reason.
  17. Ben Watson chimed in about the refs cheating for the Chiefs...and he would know something about that since he played on the Patriots...
  18. That's what the regular season is for the refs tell us.
  19. The thing that was irritating me the most is they kept spotting balls that clearly looked like first downs "just short" of the first down multiple times...not only Kincaid and then the Allen sneak on back to back plays, but throughout the game on other plays too.
  20. Differing degrees tho...a tear when used in that context usually means a full tear
  21. Honestly it's too bad that was not Ty Johnson going for the ball...he has the best ground catch game I have ever seen
  22. Yeah, sure...he is just going to demand a trade out of here to go to the NFC.
  23. Allen is going to get an extension which will lower his cap hit significantly. They will free up money with some other contract maneuvering.
