Virgil Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I don’t care about the injuries. Josh played as well as you could hope. Diggs and Sherfield let him down, but the offense overall did pretty good. This comes down to McD not having an answer for a Reid offense when it matters. It’s sickening how terrible our defenses are in the post season beyond the wild card round. If he can’t get it done in these situations, there what’s the point of him being here? Division round season enders aren’t going to cut it. I feel terrible for Josh and the fans. All of them deserve better. 5 2 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerome007 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 The usual crowd. I am gutted, so disappointed. This, like 2021, felt like THE year. But this was a super close game, almost equal everywhere. Reid and co did a great job, so did the McD and his staff. This is not like the Bengals outclassing them last year, nor the awful 13 second idiocy. This just... sucks, but it's a coin toss almost. 3 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K12A17 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Nothing McD could do any different, to many injuries at the wrong time on the defense. He was very aggressive on offense and our kicker has went to hell in the last month 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Matter_What Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Well you might not care about the injuries but the quality defense does. I feel terrible too. Defense sucked today. Josh was amazing. But still, if he hits open Shakir in the EZ on last drive we win. Some franchises are apparently not destined to win anything. As for McDermott, I don't know. I'd probably give him one more year. But I need to sleep on this to think clearly. And not once. God I hate the Chiefs. Football is so unfair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPT Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Josh played an amazing game overall, but he had two errors on the final two plays that lost the game. Winning in the playoffs is more of a competition between which teams are healthy and which are not. KC had zero injured players. We had half our defense out. KC also gets away with murder in the playoffs. They hold everybody on every single play and they never get called. They had the second most offensive holding penalties during the regular season and didn't get any tonight despite blatant holds on every snap. They were grabbing and bumping our receivers and didn't get a single flag. One of their receivers runs into our LB and we get pass interference. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianthomas Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 i knew Taylor Swift would leave Buffalo with a smile on her face, I just didn't think it'd be because we lost. Bass you gotta go, sorry but we pay you to make those kicks. Diggs, you needed to catch that deep pass. So many missed opportunities, this loss is tough. But if you look at where this team was weeks ago, I didn't even think we'd make it into the playoffs. This team can win it all. Maybe next year haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWATeam Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 We just going to ignore the last set of downs? Game is there for the taking and our guy came up small. Wide open guys underneath to keep milking the clock and moving the chains, but he can’t help himself from going for the kill shot. Blame McDermott, blame Bass, blame Beane or whoever. Josh gets the excuses, Pat needs none. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 *****in' A Virg. The fake punt on 4th and 5 was a truly stupid call. If you want to go for it, go for it, but you put your season in Damar Hamlin's hands when you have Josh Allen? Ridiculously bad decision. Brady is still not up to the drill. Just a play here or a play there, but where Spags had the right D call, we didn't. Reid dialed up the right call on O, and Brady was dialing up runs that ended up in 4-yard losses. The one adjustment that McDummy made that worked was when he put Wrap on Kelce. We didn't hear much from Kelce after that. But it didn't matter, the damage was done. Fight Doctor and CEH just ripped though our D like a hot knife through butter. It's an easy game when you're getting 8 yards a play. The main difference between Josh and Pat? The coaching staff. We're going nowhere with McDummy. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Governor Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Agree. If you trot out a bad defense in the playoffs every year then you don’t need a defensive HC. An offensive minded HC could put together an average defense. There’s literally no reason to keep him whatsoever. Plus, he’s an all-time choker now. You can’t fix that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yobogoya! Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 (edited) Honestly most of the "ownage" of the Bills has been self-inflicted. Andy Reid didn't hire the Bills Special Teams Disaster squad and take them into the postseason. Andy Reid didn't call a non squib kick or off coverage during 13 seconds. KC really didn't do anything all that special tonight. A depleted defense, craptacular specialists / receivers and some boneheaded decision making just is what it is.
