That says it all.  You need just a little bit of defense.  It felt like the Bills were just glad to be there, while the Chiefs showed up to win. 

Yep, at the end of the day, you can question the Bills offense, but the defence was atrocious. Non-existent.  Josh got the jitters when he saw that he would have to do it all if they were to have a chance.

This game made me feel very unhappy about our future.  Mahomes, Kelce, and Hill look like they are playing a different sport than anyone else, and all of them are going to be in KC for a long time.  Really dislike how this Chiefs team bodes for the Bills in the future.

 

Bills simply need to get better on the DLine. Gotta get people in his face. Bills couldn't block the Chiefs front 4 well enough...they caused constant issues and refused to let Allen escape most times.

This game reminded me of the 1988 AFC Championship we lost to the Bengals.

 

We're good, just not enough to make it to play for the title.


Sure, if the Bengals had had a 25 year-old QB who is miles ahead of everyone else in the sport.  This is not a comparable situation.  They have real work to do both talent-wise and schematically if they’re ever gonna catch KC.

And Bass missed a big kick in both games to have us to make up poins missed

Bass first kicker in NFL history with 3 50+ yard field goals .. last week should not count .. the wind caused Tucker to miss two FG for crying out loud

They were the worst eat it all year, guess it was hopefull thinking it would change tonight... 

I agree.  Been bad at it for decades.  But how do you let the guy that’s burned you all game, the number 2 receiver in the league, get a clean break off the line; no one touch him; no one within 10 yds of him as he catches the game clinching TD. It’s just inexcusable.

Brutal game plan. D looked a lot like what we showed up with in week 6 but KC had the answers for it in the pass game. 
 

Davis should not of been activated. You could see him limping while in motion in the 1st quarter. 
 

Not sure why McKenzie wasn’t on the field more in the playoffs. Glad he got in the end zone today.

I'm surprised at how well they covered our receivers no separation all night. Alan had zero help in this one. oh well good season if we could somehow find a top TE would be huge, especially in games like this.

 

Well...IMHO that is mostly due to the fact that the Bills have absolutely no threat in the running game. The Moss loss, though he's far from from a feature back, really hurt this team because they were beginning to find just a little balance before he went down. You don't need a big running game when you can pass it really well, but you need the threat. And the Bills just don't have that threat. This allows teams to concentrate solely on our passing game...It's the next problem the Bills need to solve in the off-season to take the next step.

 

Or they need to get Daboll to Andy Reid's level...And that's not happening any time soon...

TB has some thugs on their team, here’s to Suh stomping on the Rat’s head.

And Devin White snapping Kelce like a Kit Kat when he comes across the middle of the field.

I'm talking about how the game turned out.

 

The Bills can continue to improve.

Blaming Daboll isn't accurate here. KC covered our receivers well tonight. Josh had nowhere to throw hardly. As for Frazier? I'm not sure if it was his horrid gameplan or lack of execution or both. But McDermott........twitter roasted him more than I think we could

Wow...I thought the play-calling was visibly uncreative all game...no viable designed QB runs... none of the Jet Sweep / misdirection type stuff or trying to alleviate the pressure. Consistent bland stuff.

 

Just didn't have a good plan to deal with the pressure man....I'm sorry if you don't agree it seems glaring to me. 

 

Lets also not forget some of those 4th and 3s we whiffed on w FGs were set up by bad 3rd down calls. 

 

We didnt play to win...

Needed to be doubled off the line. No adjustment during game...

I was really surprised at how dirty the chiefs were. This isn’t sour grapes too. Have never seen the Bills get into skirmishes of any kind under McD. But I guess getting punched and hit and body slammed will get to you.

 

I have always held to the theory that Andy Reid is a brilliant offensive coordinator but an overall meh head coach.  If he ever went on a losing streak with the characters on that team, he would lose that locker room in about 10 minutes.  
 

I will be interested to see how the dirt bags in KC matchup with their comparable counterparts on TB (Suh, Etc.)— they deserve each other.

Singletary dropped a critical screen pass BOTH TIMES WE PLAYED THE CHIEFS. 
 

I couldn’t believe he did that AGAIN tonight.  
 

Dude is just kind of a loser.

He's gone and I don't see us keeping Brown. We absolutely have to find a running game or we're never beating KC.

I don’t want to post much in anger.

 

As far as the Season goes- HIGHLY ENJOYABLE, during this very strange year! Allen & Diggs are stars, 11 is a hard working stud.

 

On the negative side, Running game is invisible, but unless there is a Tyreek Hill available- DO NOT Draft one, early.

TE is average. Just average. Will he get better? If not, look for a yuuuge stud like Kelce.

Brown is out! Not big enough, brittle, no assistance! Draft a WR.

Davis, I’d keep. Let’s see if he can be better in September.


OL Drafts needed.

Multiple replacements needed on D.

 

Tonight?

 

McD got schooled- badly! Traded FGs for TDs.
That’s Dick Mor-on territory! Very disquieting.

 

Hate to say it, because I didn’t believe it before the game.

 

BUT, the better team won and easily and handily!

 

See you in September.

Why would you go for two when 1 PT gets you to 16? It makes no sense...

Need two two pointers eventually regardless.  It’s the two fourth and shorts fg’s that pissed me off.

Those 4th and short were all on McDermott. He made those calls to kick FGs. Yeah, I would have called a designed QB run on that 3rd down. His decision to kick FGs made absolutely no sense to me

The defense was hot garbage ... The offense was cold garbage ... The OC and DC were just plain garbage tonight.

 

This game certainly will keep Daboll and Frazier from getting HC jobs this off season.

 

The Bills were outplayed across the board tonight.

They were punked. Need a couple of gangsters on the lines.

I feel like this is the place to say it cause I'm not sure where else to say it.

 

I'm supposed to be happy about the season. And while I am, I'm also disappointed. This is not the game I wanted my Buffalo Bills to go out on. I thought the gameplan as a whole was not who they were all season. This was not the high powered offense I watched all season. They settled for FGs instead of TDs in an AFC Championship game. 

 

Yea I'm happy where this franchise is going but idk, I feel like this season it could have been more.

I would have Knox watch every play Kelce did this season and set up pass plays to utilize him the same.  He has the size and speed, just needs hands and technique/smarts

1. Coaching staff had their worst game of the season. Daboll's playcalling was mediocre at best and piss poor at worst. Allen should have been used on the 4th down plays instead of FGS. Frazier and the defense looked like they didnt prepare at all, like it was 1960s NFL when teams just played their simple playbook and watched no tape on another team. How could they possible be that clueless? McD's decisions to go for FGs just handed the momentum to the chiefs every time. You are in the championship game VS the best team in the league, VS the MVP at QB. Why the hell are playing so conservative.

 

2. A few small plays in this game that seemed not so important at the time but I think were huge. Bass's missed PAT. Didn't matter scorewise but psychologically was a bad omen. The missed punch by the KC lineman should have been an ejection and would have really changed their defensive scheme. Singletary's drop was an absolute gut punch. He would have run for 20 yards plus on that play. It just killed their momentum and probably contributed to Josh being even more under pressure and nervous.
