MPT Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I agree with the sentiment of the post that our offense has very little need for improvement, but we lost that game because of coaching and nothing else. 1 3 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You shouldn’t allow a team to match down a field in that amount of time no matter what. That seems like a contradiction. If you're saying the players shouldn't have allowed the Chiefs to go 45 yards in 13 seconds, then you need to look at the defensive play calls. They were intentionally put in position to prevent a touchdown at the expense of 20 yard plays. That's 100% coaching. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sven233 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) Because all of a sudden, our entire defensive coaching staff, including our head coach, shoved their collective heads up their butts and failed the team in the biggest moment. Most people on this board......most football fans in general.....could have made decisions that would have closed that game out. It's like our staff took the ideal defensive strategy for that situation and decided to do the exact opposite. It was not on the players. The coaching staff literally stole one should have been one of this franchise's all time greatest moments, and in my opinion this teams first Super Bowl Championship, and flushed it down the toilet. That said, there were other moments in that game where we could have been a bit better. Honestly, it could be as simple as Tre not playing in the game. Not a doubt in my mind we win that game by 2 scores if a healthy Tre is in there. Edited April 30, 2022 by sven233 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillsGospel2014 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I believe if we had this current defense with Von Miller, the DT's, hopefully a healthy Tre White and now Elam/Jackson and Johnson all helping out in the secondary we would have won that game. I guess we'll find out soon enough! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said I totally agree the 13 seconds was one of the most bonehead mistakes in coaching history. With that being said the defense played bad all game and in turn did not support Allen and the offense. The game is not down to one 13 second play if the “#1 defense” plays a decent game Edited April 30, 2022 by ToBillsFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) 1) 13 seconds 2) they had all three time outs left 3) they had Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and Tyreek Hill 4) some Bills players and coaches were already celebrating on the sidelines like the game was over 5) they only needed a FG to tie and go to OT.

The modern NFL is not designed to allow any defense to stop an offense from scoring if they are playing at that level, especially when both defenses are playing without their best players. The only thing you can do is slow them down and manage the clock. Instead, we called two defensive plays that allowed the Chiefs to do exactly what they wanted to do in as little time as possible.

BADOLBILZ Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) 45 minutes ago, ToBillsFan said: Answer: Defence Wrong. They lost because they were on the road. 0-4 in the playoffs on the road and 3-0 at home under McDermott. They were on the road because they lost 3 games in a 5 game stretch in the regular season where they scored 15, 10 and 9 points because the OL couldn't block and they didn't have any YAC talent to help Josh Allen get the ball out quick and still make plays. So they had to go into panic mode and use Josh Allen like a RB to slow the opposing pass rush down. After Allen got hurt in Tampa they tried to not let Allen run against Carolina and he got sacked 4 times and the offense labored. Yeah, if you are willing and able to use your franchise QB as a battering ram the offense is fine, though. The divisional game was just the only time ever that two teams coming off 40 point games met in the playoffs. A perfect storm. And had they not pulled their horns in offensively earlier in the second half they win that game in regulation. McD kept thinking his defense was going to make plays. Neither defense could.

I have a feeling @ScottLaw was being ironic? "Spelt" is British for the past tense of "spell", just as "defence" is the British spelling.

Success Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 The 13 seconds was coaching. The whole GAME was defense - and we saw bad defense at other points in the season, like the Taylor game. We did NOT have a #1 defense last year. Marginal top 10, maybe. And defense wins championships. I support the offseason focus on D completely. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, McD has been given many years and really an abundance of resources in terms of signings and high round draft picks to build a D that can come up with a big stop or two and he simply hasn’t done the job. He hasn’t been up to that task or been able to adequately manage a big game and it’s hurt us so badly in both of the last two years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Coaching ….… partly due to Levi and Dane not being fast enough. Partly due to not communicating properly with the kicker. 2 ridiculous moments and we failed miserably Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phypon Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Because of a coin toss. Also, because coaching left the gate of the de"fence" open in the last 13 seconds. If only there were 10 seconds left instead of 13...oh well. Still a sore subject. Although, if we had to not make the big game I'd rather have lost to the Chiefs instead of the Bengals. Could you imaging if we had lost at home to the Bengals? The Bengals!! Dear Lord, the horror! Glad it happened to the Chiefs though. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
