It's not KC bias if every time you turn on the TV, a national analyst is calling Mahomes the most talented QB ever. Frankly, a lot of the media goes further in praising him than I do.

harmonkillebrew Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Mahomes is clutch, consistently clutch. Allen is not. He's had some good clutch moments, but not as consistently as Mahomes. Allen would probably have won a SB with KC by now, but it wouldn't be as one-sided in the playoffs as it currently is 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DabillsDaBillsDaBills Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 15 hours ago, SaulGoodman said: You seem to think there's nothing more that Allen could have done in that game, but Buffalo punted on about half their possessions (4 of 9). KC punted on 2 of 11. It's Mahomes that had to be nearly flawless, because his defense was blowing coverages constantly and leaving receivers open by a mile. Plus his kicker missed two easy kicks. It's not like Butker missed a couple of 30 yard FGs. He missed a PAT and a 50 yard FG at the end of the 1st half (hardly an 'easy' kick).

I mean, it's fun to watch as fans, but it just has to be a nightmare for the team sometimes. This is my thought on it as well. It's so hard to sat because Allen could very well be dominant like he was vs KC in the 13 second game, or he could have a game where he turns it over 2-3 times and in the playoffs, that gets you sent home. Now obviously ANY QB can have a bad day, Mahomes included, but Allen plays much more reckless, which can be amazingly good, but can also lead to a very bad game here and there too.

SaulGoodman Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) 12 hours ago, Success said: Ah, yes. The KC defense just laid down for Allen. Unlike what the Bills defense did for Mahomes this past January. And it was quite a bit more than just "picking on Klein." Half the Bills D was out or hurt. I'm trying to imagine how much more spectacular Mahomes would have been than Allen if he was on the Bills for the 13 seconds game. I'm not able to muster much. Allen was unreal that game. If the Bills win that coin toss, NFL history is probably a bit different. Not to take away from the game he had, but again, they punted on almost half their possessions. The scoring flurry didn't happen until very late in the game. So obviously the offense and Allen could have done more. It's not like they were facing an elite defense. They were facing a defense with as many or more holes as the one KC faced in January. Sorenson, Niemann, Hitchens and Hughes were massive liabilities and easy for a quality QB to exploit. They didn't "lie down," but they might as well have. Numerous blown coverages, WRs running wide open, and a DB falling down on 4th and 15, leaving Davis high school open for the go-ahead score. 12 hours ago, Success said: You've got 3 Super Bowls, and the consensus top QB in the league. Some even say GOAT. The Bills haven't won a thing. Not sure why you need the vote of confidence for Mahomes from l'il ol' me. I'm never going to wish the Bills had Mahomes instead of Allen. Sorry 'bout that. Never expected you to say otherwise. You quoted me and I responded. Edited March 14 by SaulGoodman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen has the 7th lowest playoff INT percentage of all time (minimum 100 attempts). Mahomes is 8th. The difference in playoff success between the two is that Mahomes has had arguably two or three Hall of Fame teammates at any one time and a Hall of Fame coach. Allen hasn't had a single one. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely doesn't qualify as an "easy" kick, although Butker rarely misses those. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generic_Bills_Fan Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) 4 hours ago, ChronicAndKnuckles said: Josh did not walk into a “sh-t scenario.” He was developed perfectly by Daboll. Ideally, he wouldn’t have started year 1, but by his 2nd he had serviceable skill positions along w/ a pretty good defense. Things could’ve been a million times worse. I thought the coaching staff did wonderful and obviously other teams did as well considering how quickly Daboll & Schoen were snatched up. ‘Ideally’ he wouldn’t have started but he did start his first season with one of the worst supporting casts I’ve ever seen a rookie qb have lol I’m struggling to see how things could’ve been any worse it was the ultimate trial by fire 😂. Wr1 was kelvin benjamin who was terrible and cut midseason the situation mahomes stepped into was farrrrrr better and I don’t think it’s even remotely debatable. I think josh made Daboll a household name much more than the reverse and Daboll’s time with the giants will likely prove that Edited March 14 by Generic_Bills_Fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He pretty much solo lost that game Oh this year for sure. But in previous years, we would somehow beat KC in the regular season, and still end up the 2 seed or lower because Allen dropped a couple games and the Chiefs would be hosting the AFCCG. I know folks don’t want to hear that, but if the Bills had playoff homefield for like 6 years straight, we probably have broken through by now.

Are you suggesting that we should get him on to his 2nd head coaching job, then, so you can see if your confidence in him is justified?

He's electric, mesmerizing and as Rich Eisen has said, he's one of the most athletic, physically gifted and entertaining qbs in NFL history. Josh needed Dabol as much as Mahomes needs Andy. Albeit Reid is the superior coach over Dabol and McDermott. Josh just needs to find a way to reduce the careless moments that we don't see as often with Mahomes.
