There is nothing special about either of them. JuJu is at best a low end #2... MVS is a #3 with poor hands. The KC receiving corps this year is not very good. It really isn't. The majority of the heavy lifting in that passing game has been Patrick Mahomes who has had an MVP type year. The response to this will, I know, be "well what about the Bills receiving corps?" I was telling you all that was a major area of concern pre-season when I was still being met with responses about Crowder being a sneaky weapon and how Shakir was gonna have an impact as an outside receiver as a rookie. That was unlikely then and has proved to be such. Diggs - Knox - Davis Kelce - JuJu - MVS I don't see a massive difference tbh. If I was ranking those weapons in order I'd go Diggs, Kelce, JuJu, Knox, Davis, MVS. When you look at the production... KC got 2,958 yards and 17 TDs out of their top 3. The Bills got 2,782 and 24 TDs. I think that is pretty close to a wash. Where I DO think KC has an advantage on us is their depth behind that - Hardman, Moore, Toney... McKinnon out of the backfield is superior to McKenzie, Shakir, the ghosts of Beas and Brown and Cook out of the backfield. They also have a better oline and better playcalling. I just think the idea somehow Mahomes has an all star cast he is throwing to is a false narrative. Their top 3 is pretty similar level to the top 3 weapons on the Bills although differently constructed. Great breakdown. I totally agree with your take. I think the major point of emphasis is the Chiefs have a better Oline and play calling. That could be the difference between winning and losing if the two teams meet again.

And this doesn't even include our reluctance to establish a more consistent run attack. Our Wr2 was ranked amongst the worst of the Wr3 this year. Him and McKenzie has been a joke to put on the field with Josh Allen as top recievers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 coach had a lot to do with the 2nd half comeback. can not deny he is a good coach, not great, but good. I had the jags losing this one but then you have to look at the history of the chargers that always seem to lose in big games. so there was always that chance to win for the jags..

Since1981 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I can’t wait to hear more about what Branden HC did. One area I noticed, as soon as jags rushed Herbert they collapsed. I think Chargers OC calls didn’t adapt to Herbert pressures with add hot reads. No offense, no defense 2H but other than that, great job HC!! Where’s Mike Williams when you need him?

ArtVandalay Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 5 hours ago, Beck Water said: "A bunch of scrub WR?" ROTFL. Juju Smith Schuster is far from a "scrub WR". He came close to 1000 yds as a rookie and was pro-bowl with 111 receptions and >1400 yds his 2nd year. He fell off in 2019 with the likes of Mason Rudolph and Duck Hodges throwing to him, and in 2021 when he was injured and only played 5 games, but other than that, he's been what he's been for the Chiefs this year - a 58 yd per game, 77% catch guy. If he's a scrub and never had it, why did the Chiefs pay him $3.8M on a 1 year "prove you still got it after your injuries" deal? And if Marquez Valdes-Scantling is such a scrub, why did KC offer him 3 years, $30M guaranteed? These guys aren't Davonte Adams or Tyreek Hill, but they're at worst, proven good quality NFL receivers. If he's a scrub, why did KC draft Skyy Moore in the 2nd round? Kadarius Toney cost next year's 3rd round pick, and of course Mecole Hardmen is a former 2nd round Chiefs pick. That's a goodly draft pick investment for "a bunch of scrubs. This is a horrible analysis from top to bottom. Juju is not very good, which is why even with Mahomes he didn't reach 1k. He had 1 big year in the slot like 4 years ago when he had prime AB pulling all the top coverage and schemes. MVS is trash. Spent his whole career with Aaron Rodgers and Mahomes, has never had 700 yards and has a career high of 42 catches. He's got a good 40 time and teams like his personality. He's dog crap on the field. Draft status is not an argument for a guy being good especially round 2. Skyy Moore has a chance to be good but he was not ready to contribute this year as a rookie. Hardman is a perennial disappointment. Toney had 17 targets this year, wasn't acquired until mid year and injured he had minimal impact on the field, has potential in the long run. Other poster was pretty accurate describing the team as Kelce then scrub WRs. 5 hours ago, Boatdrinks said: The change to only 1 bye week has given the #1 seed outsized importance, to be sure. Make no mistake though, if the Bills had been matched up with JAX this board would be full of consternation and worry. No one would be saying they had a ridiculously easy path etc. Lol no. You might have a couple people worried sure because there's people that worry about everything, but plenty would see it as easy... but board opinion doesn't matter at the end of the day anyway. Win 1 home game vs a 9-8 team is an easy path make no mistake. The difference between 1 and 2 seed : bye week then Jaguars at home... or tune up game vs crap Miami, then home game vs Bengals. The 1 seed is overpowered right now though, it's a problem for a league that bangs its chest over parity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrubs is not the right word. Scrubs are guys like Jake Kumerow to me who barely belong on NFL rosters. The types who bounce on and off practice squads. I do think they are JAGs though. And I agree on JuJu's career. His two best years in Pit came when he had, at the time, the best receiver in football opposite him. He is an NFL starter who can catch some balls. But he isn't a weapon. Even with decent yardage production this year... he has 3 touchdowns. When the field condenses in the redzone he struggles to separate.

Between that collapse, getting players hurt in a meaningless game the week before, & last year's debacle missing the playoffs, with all the talent they have, how do they not move on from Staley? & Maybe just maybe with that kind of lead run the ball a little more & stop going out of bounds to keep that clock ticking.

SirAndrew Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) Another crazy comeback in a season that had its share. The Jags deserve credit, but it also speaks to the low quality of play we’ve seen. It takes a lot of mistakes to give up that sort of lead. There’s too much bad coaching in this league, and we’re seeing the results. Teams don’t even attempt to control the clock with big leads, and this stubborn insistence on running a specific system is resulting in big comebacks.

Livinginthepast Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Before the Atlanta collapse in the SB, I never thought a collapse of even 17 pts was possible in the playoffs. But the Chargers didnt just lose the game on the field their collapse was mental. How a team can let another team off the mat like that without applying the dagger to them is absolutely nuts. The Chargers literally panicked and played a perfect game for a Jags comeback in the second half. Sure the plays weren't made and stupid plays were (Bosa esp) but I think that is all on the Staley not preparing his team at the half and not taking chances with the playcalling on Offense in the 2nd. Absolutely outcoached by DP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
