Pretty sure they’ll instead draft a defensive lineman who will do nothing to help us beat KC… I don't know... locking up with the tackle and letting him ride you 10 yards past the QB every play isn't helpful?

Did he provide any detail on what the hell they were doing on defense the final two plays? Why they rushed four d lineman? Why they were protecting the sidelines? Why they were playing 20 yards off? Anything? So inexcusable. He doesn't owe you a detailed explanation. He has stated over and over that what transpired over those 13 seconds "starts with him." He doesn't need to do anything more than start looking forward to how they can learn from this and do the things that are necessary to be a better team next year. They tried their best and came up short. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We traded a first for Diggs, traded up twice for Allen, traded up for Ford, drafted Devin, Knox, Davis, Brown, etc. But please, tell us all again how we only focused on defense the last 5 years. Offense was unstoppable in the playoffs and defense didn’t get the job done against KC. Yet you’re somehow opposed to addressing the defense? Geezus this place is off he rails right now The Offense was unstoppable in the Playoffs, in part, because Josh Allen Unleashed is a viable option when it comes time to do or die. It's not viable to play him like we did against KC, game in/game out. This game needs to be played in Orchard Park next year. To get there, we need to aim for the 1 seed and win the necessary games needed in the regular season. If we want to draft a RD1 CB, I'm good with it. That makes complete sense, and I believe helps us beat KC. After that, when it comes to FA and the Draft, unless there's some magic to be made to bring in an elite level pass rusher... for the love of God, give Josh Allen the necessary help for an 18 week Regular Season. That means the rest of the offseason focus should be on bolstering the OL and more speed on Offense. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Blitz Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 No way Bass wasn't told to boot it to the sun. We played our safeties at our own 25 in the last 8 seconds of the game. We played not to lose. We let them dictate the kick. We let them dictate our defense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He coached scared in last year's game in KC as well. He's still horrible with timeout usage 5 years later. He still has that deer in the headlights look in the biggest moments of the game and screwed up with the squib and the scheme late. Also 5 years in and his D can't come up with a big stop late. This is also so much about preparation. Just like his first year vs the Colts when he didn't know that a tie would have eliminated us from the playoffs and punted late, he wasn't prepared for the 4th and short decisions last year and wasn't prepared for the late situation this year. Credit to him for being part of the decision to draft #17, no doubt about that. But if we stop holding the standard to comparing this team to the teams of the drought and look at it in the sense of what can we do to maximize this time we have with an elite QB, I'd want a coach that matches the preparation and fearlessness of Josh. You mean like what we saw in the wild card game against the Patriots*? This is such a weak take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theRalph Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 All this talk is utter blather. The HC OWNS THE RESPONSIBILITY. If Bass got it wrong, if Harwell got it wrong, even if Andy Reid farted and it affected the KO....MCDERMOTT IS STILL RESPONSIBLE. PHUUUUUCKING PERIOD!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a bit upset. Some of us have more constructive ways of expressing our emotions. And some of us do not. During the season I was personally getting pissed off at the doom and gloom posters. They annoyed me to no end. Others seemed much better at ignoring them than I was. Now that the season is over, in the way that it ended, the absurd takes aren't getting to me at all. I guess it's just easier for me to accept this post mortem period, understanding that people are going to express their anger and frustration in what ever way makes sense to them. Even if it makes no sense to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m saying it’s utterly ridiculous to come on here (not you, the poster I quoted) and claim we have only focused on defense the last 5 years and therefore it’s a mistake to give any attention the defense this off-season. We absolutely need to also address the OL. I disagree we need more speed, our offense was plenty explosive. I’m all for more speed, just saying the Achilles heal on offense was always our OL more than anything. Fix that and we are all the top offense in the NFL next year. We have needs to address on both sides of the ball this off-season. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geezus this place is off he rails right now We’ll let’s take a look tre White, you mention Allen okay did you know they traded back into the first round for Edmunds the next year Ed Oliver, you mentioned Diggs his first pick that year was Aj the next year was Greg. Now if you don’t know what they play let me enlighten you 1 corner 2 middle Linebacker 3 Defensive Tackle 4 Defensive End 5 Defensive End the last 5 years all with in the first two rounds All with there first selection except Josh Edmunds came with the second first round pick.

TheFunPolice Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) Chances are almost 100% that Chiefs are going to try to get into FG range, not a TD. So you play normal defense there. Maybe 1 safety way back. The big play is really the first one with 13 seconds left. They are going to try to get around 20 yards. Even if they want to throw a hail mary the next play, they are going to want 20-25 yards the first play to set it up. They aren't going deep on play #1. Way too risky and then they're basically screwed if it doesn't work being 75 yards away with like 7 seconds left. So you play it like it's 4th and 20. Don't let them get an easy one there. If they go over the top and somehow beat you then they beat you. It's way, way, high risk for them. Like I said, one thing goes wrong for them there and it's 2nd and 10 at their own 25 with 6-7 seconds left. Then what? You stop them on 1st down with 13 seconds and you win the game. We played like it was 4th and 20 and we were fine with them picking it up. Edited January 25, 2022 by TheFunPolice 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
