Can someone explain what happened on the 4th and 17 play? The coverage looked, ummm, a little suspect, 

Looked like Bernard blew it. 

 

Went with Kelce who was covered leaving Rice in that hole

[BRH]

Man, Schopp on the postgame seems almost disappointed that we won, like he had a whole script written and had to toss it.  Not unlike some people on this board.  
 

It’s a win.  Treat it like one.

You are NEVER happy about the Buffalo Bills.

 

You are a real bore when it comes to this team.

 

I'm wondering how many coaches he thinks could have made the playoffs McD's first season when the media thought they were intentionally tanking by getting rid of all the "good" players.

[appoo]

I have no idea how many people will hate this but McDermott deserves coach of the year mentions at this point.

 

This roster is kept together with duct tape at this point and it’s getting worse almost every series. The Bills do not have a so by legitimate perimeter threat at WR and yet they just managed to put up 28 and physically dominate an elite defense. 
 

a biblical catastrophe has struck this defense and you have multiple practice level/reservist level players out there getting big minutes and they just forced Mahomes and the offense into desperation mode and mostly kicked their asses.

 

This is just ridiculous. 
 

McDermott is probably the best coach to not win a Super Bowl currently 

[Dave_Bills]

Great win today. Helps me get over the Jays game 7 loss

[Big Turk]

Hairston and Bishop are going to become one hell of a tandem back there.

He’s not an NFL level coach. He makes more poor decisions than most other coaches. This should have been a 14pt victory easily. 

His timeout at the end of the half to reset the defensive unit was very smart and likely saved us from allowing a touchdown

I'm getting really tired of reading this type of stuff from "fans" like him.

Cuz the coach made the field goal hit the goal post.

Yeah. McDermott relied on a long time kicker with great success that has been fantastic this year. 

 

The attempt there was a game winner if it connects. Not his fault his kicker doesn't connect.

 

So I guess the alternative would have been to throw the ball and if incomplete, allow the Chiefs more time at the end of the game. Wonder what would have happened if Mahomes had that extra 35-40 seconds on that last drive?

The coach set you up for that FG and had no plan beyond it.  Thats the strategy part McClapass can’t handle.  

Outside of relying on a defense that held Mahomes to less than 50% completion rate to keep them from making 60 yards in 25 seconds?  Which they did? 
 

You’re trying way too hard here.

Tre White was on the field, which explains it all.

This was the play after Hoecht got injured and I believe it impacted everything that happened afterwards.

[Mikie2times]

Noticeable improvement on defense. I think it’s likely McD calling plays. Makes you wonder how bad Babich really was. 
 

When the pass rush gets home they look good I think that will probably stay inconsistent in that area. Bosa has been off and on. Great game today. Hoecht was making a difference but now he’s lost. Secondary looked great. Very encouraged by Bishop. Max also played well. 
 

Wish we would have punted at the end there but it still worked out and I like the pressure package on the Hail Mary. 
 

Big win, obviously. Really needed that one. Always feels great beating these guys.

First team to have an RB run for 100+ yards against the Chiefs in a long long time...Lamar Jackson was the last player to run for 100 yards and that was game 1 of LAST season.

I think it was a Reid master play that he saves for the playoffs, but had to bring it out to try to convert knowing that play was the game at that point

So what were they supposed to do after the FG that they didn't do?

 

You're playing defense whether you make it or miss it and other than the first completion to Rice, they played the last 22 seconds pretty good.

I get it buddy. Tough to win in this league and what not. But God*$#@, that type of coaching will show up again when it actually matters and you're okay with that?
