Warren Sharp: How McDermott laid the blueprint for beating Drake Maye

Be the farm on Seattle.

The Pats played the easiest schedule in NFL history and score 28 points a game. They scored 31 against us. What a terrible analysis

Such a shame. Great coach, just seemed like he couldn’t ever pull off this kind of thing in the playoffs. I’m assuming this is referencing the spy mirror thing and losing Dorian Williams on the opening kickoff was a huge part of the reason we lost against Denver in my opinion. 

We lost against Denver because there was so much pressure of the offense to score every possession that it caused Allen & Cook to play extremely tense and cough up the ball. When has our defense passed the eyeball at one point during the year

So if Allen hits Knox over the middle, we're in the Super Bowl.  GREAT.

[Blank Stare]

Damn refs (and turnovers). We should be playing this weekend.

I was told McDermott was a terrible coach.

 

This story lauding him must be untrue.

Warning - 70% of the money is on Seattle and the line hasn't moved even half a point.

We lost against Denver because we turned the ball over FIVE TIMES. You simply cannot do that in the playoffs.

Exactly, but if anyone had any confidence with the defense; they could have played a looser game and not turn the ball as often.

It opened at 3 & is now 4.5. There are so many sucker prob bets and parlays with the Super Bowl; the book is cleaning house either way

Sean is a DC. He has typically done good stuff against young QBs. In the playoffs, he becomes Henry Winkler in the water boy.

I heard Joe Brady ran the defense in that game vs the Pats.

We were down 21 - nothing to start the game on the road.

Thank you @Big Blitz

 

Got to watch this guy more, did a nice job not over complicating it for a grunt like me. But that mustache…..

McD is a really smart defensive tactician. 
 

But I am not sure it works against the high level QBs.

Fair or not, he’s gonna get trashed on that point.

I normally like Warren Sharp but his analysis is garbage here. 

 

It's true that we held the Patriots passing game in check during that game. Maye finished 14/23 for 155 yards 0 TD 1 INT. The INT was an arm punt. The problem is that we allowed 246 rushing yards and 4 rushing TDs on only 25 carries. 

 

Sharp purposefully ignores the rushing stats and that the Patriots scored 31 points. This was an awful game by the Bills defense. We won the game because Josh Allen and James Cook scored TDs on 5 consecutive drives. 

[Nitro]

Denver defense gave up 30 points to a Bills team without any WR threats.  Maye with a healthy offense could only score 10.   I am not a betting man but I would lay a bundle on Seattle to win.
