I disagree....he has been going for it quite a bit more on 4th downs and been more aggressive than used to be. As for this recent KC game he did pretty well until the last there. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

US Egg Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Got to think Bills players must have been, and still are, questioning what their coaches were thinking sticking with their ‘D’ strategy, when it was evident late in game it wasn’t working, as the Chiefs we’re moving with ease more and more. McDermott opened himself up to scrutiny unlike any he’s been under before. He will be viewed by many from here on as suspect, and rightly so.

KC scored TDs after both punts. Sure, he's aggressive and will run up the score on garbage teams like the Patriots. He consistently shrivels up and coaches scared in the biggest moments.

Like I mentioned both times the chiefs marched right down the field and scored TDs. Edited January 25, 2022 by Process Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billieve420 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) Can't believe there wasn't a happy medium between calling what we did and then Todd Bowles in Tampa calling Cover 0 which allowed Kupp to beat them deep. I would have played aggressive and had someone check those guys at the line of scrimmage and let anyone else but Hill or Kelce to beat you.

Yeah definitely should have went for the 4th and 1. That's the one I remember begging for them to go for it. Other one, even at mid field, being 4th and 4 can be tricky. But anyway, yeah there are areas he needs to improve for sure, but overall McD is better than he used to be 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Coot Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I wish someone on this board would analyze the defenses in the final 13 secs. On Kelce's 20 yard grab Wallace has outside leverage on Kelce so someone must have had inside leverage but who? Milano? one of the safeties?

FilthyBeast Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 The lack of attention to detail here is simply astounding. And while Kelce may go down as the best TE in NFL history when it's all said and done there's simply no excuse to not double or even triple team him and force someone else to beat you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were trying to stop the 90 yard hail mary. Everyone is desperately trying to find an explanation. I get it.... It still hurts....but there is none.

It didn't work for KC either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know McDermott isn’t as seasoned as Reid, but damn. This is ridiculous. I didn’t know that he called two TOs on that drive and did not adjust or change alignments either time. Wow.

Niagara Dude Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 1 hour ago, Process said: No one was covering Kelce ... They were playing prevent defense in a situation where the Chiefs only needed a quick 15 yards.... Stupid coaching, prevent defence is when you are ahead by 7 not 3. Sean and Frazier choked, they could have just tackled/held Hill on that first play and you are allowed to do that once but not on consecutive plays. Sean said in his presser that they considered it, it most likely wins them the game because the Chiefs had only 3 secs left after two passes and both passes Mahomes throws the ball very quickly because Bills are giving Chief players free release off the line. 1 hour ago, Process said: No one was covering Kelce ...

Like why did he not just go up to Bass himself and instruct him to do pop up or squid kick, this BS of first telling the special teams coach who then never told Bass sounds like a coverup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
