Chugga Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I said this in the 2nd half thread and someone said “but the conditions were bad”. Who cares? You play to win the game. You have to take a shot if it fails then kneel it out and call it a day. But what would ever make you believe this defense was going to stop someone in overtime. 5 1 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo1105 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I wouldn't fire him for the 20 seconds, though I agree with you but there are now two examples, where the QB of the Buffalo Bills played a nearly flawless football game. Over 400 yards and 4 TD's today and ended up losing because the defense couldn't get a stop. This is not just a two time thing, this has happened multiple times over his tenure in the 7 years he has been the Head Coach. Its his specialty, the defensive side of the ball. You expect a Defensive Specialist to be able to get a stop on top teams when your QB has literally played an almost perfect game. I just can't with this guy anymore. He did his job. He took the Bills to heights they haven't been for the last 20 years before he came along but he isn't going to take this team to the Super Bowl. We will always fall short with him. He is not aggressive enough both allowing his offense to spread it out and go and his defense is well lets play soft until they get in range and hope for a mistake. What I love about the Chiefs is they are aggressive on both sides and it has bitten them in the past but they are going to go down swinging all the time. Spags in that situation is literally bringing the house on defense over and over and over again and he's trying to get you to make a dumb decision or get a sack and fumble or a holding penalty to put you at a disadvantage. Reid goes for it when the opportunity presents. 3 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livinginthepast Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 That was as gutless as it comes. Maybe McD should have looked at Josh and his record in OT and tried to avoid yet another choke but McD is too slow to even think in the moment like that! At least throw a deep pass and try it . Thats why he should be fired TONIGHT. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffBills51 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I had no problem kneeling it out with 20 seconds. What I have a problem with is the consistent vanilla defense when ahead late in the game. He lacks zero killer instinct and allows teams to stay close. We are an above average team that becomes average. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donuts and Doritos Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 It's like McD's never seen a team score in 20 seconds or less in regulation, ever. C'mon man, you're 0-6 in OT. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PepeSilvia Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 They deserved to lose. Too many mistakes. Too many penalties. Two missed fg’s. On the OT drive alone, there was a dropped pass for a first down, two wrong ran routes/miscommunications (one to win the game). McDermott has to go.

No one on this forums in their right mind could have made a case saying “dumb McDermott should have went to overtime and trusted his world class defense”. Sorry if Josh throws an interception or there’s a sack fumble the narrative of this game is another second half collapse and bad officiating. No one would have hung McDermott out to dry for TRYING TO WIN THE GAME. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rigotz Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 My problem is not necessarily the kneeling with 20 seconds as much as it is blowing two time outs before doing that. Blow a time out with 30 seconds left before the third down play… ok. Blow another time out with 25 seconds left to… ice the kicker? THEN KNEEL?

JMM Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I've always defended McDermott, for all he has done. Despite the losses. I started to have doubts last year. The doubts grew deeper this year. After he kneeled with 20 secs to go, when he played to go to OT, he finally lost me. I'm DONE. I want him fired. We will not get to the promised land with him.
