pass to Johnson on a rope

nice start.

what happened to Rapp and Hamlin?

hopefully not a Groot and other DE 1st and 2nd. He’s been bad at early DL picks

Bernard? The DL is really the root issue. It lets blockers swallow up the small LBs. I mean we need to run blitz and have the secondary stop the run at the line. We have no one on the DL capable of winning 1 on 1s or that a OC needs to plan for. All that spend in cap and draft for nothing. Let's spend on the offense, trade the overpaid Oliver's, not keep Groot, I'd rather roll with Solomon, another draft pick, and FA or draft a NT. Spend FA on WR, OL, perhaps Benford if he is up, etc. Get a FA safety, etc.

I was worried when that happened. Then nailed it. He was good.

agreed. how we don't have a plan for a situation where we need a quick touchdown is rediculous. Either run/pass, or run and quickly get another play off. this is the difference between the Bills, and teams that have won the SB. You need to win games like the Rams games. We don't. Other teams do.

McD gets to make all the mental mistakes on this team! Elam seems to be the type of CB you need in the playoffs. Someone who is a bit more physical (less PI calls in the playoffs) and has a knack for the ball. Not sure why we aren't rostering him on gameday and playing him. 4 playoff games, 2 Int's. If he doesn't "fit the scheme" and we were not willing to adapt at all, why was he drafted!

I'd try to trade him. Too much money tied up in him for what a rookie or lower priced vet could produce. Spend that money on offense, since we need to win shootouts. I'm not sure if "fine" is correct for Ed and Daquan (neither did anything of note), but there were not as bad as Greg R.

haven't seen it put better anywhere. This is where I'm at, at the end of the day.

that would be awful. Only pay players like that who are game-changers. Bernard, okay. Benford and Rousseau,. both very good, not game-changers. Get WR vet help and draft replacements for Greg R. and Benford. Might keep Benford, no way for Rousseau.

It has the last few years. No reason to believe it won't again. Past few playoffs= D and HC game-management failures. I keep thinking it will change, no idea why it doesn't. McD is outthinking himself at the end of games at the wrong time (declining the penality), and not thinking enough at the other times (passing at 1st and goal).

Another QB who can't run, we should get a TON of sacks. (checks notes). NO sacks against the Rams. At least the Run D should be good? (checks notes). Nope, not all year. Yeah, we need to outscore them. I can't see the D getting pressure on Goff, or stopping the 2 headed RB monster that Det has. good point, but Goff can play a clean game at home and with a clean pocket. why would we lose a close game? That never happens....

looks timid, afraid of injury, or more likely, unable to diagnose game play speed with 14 months off. I'd have Williams out there 1/2 the game. We can't have Milano playing like this in the playoffs. If Milano can't get it back by then, we should roll with Williams. agree that peak Williams v. mid-range Milano is in Milano's favor. However, Milano was not great in coverage or run yesterday. Williams likely shuts down more of the run plays than Milano at this point. Milano is getting shacked out of his boots by RBs, etc. Again, it's a game speed issue for him, which he hopefully gets back in time for the playoffs.

I agree. McD is great, the issues are the high-pressure end of game situations. Was hoping they would resolve by now, but nope, nothing's really changed. Only way to make a playoff/SB run is to out-Allen everyone and build up a huge lead because the DL and end of game situational awareness are awful.

also sounds like looking for another scapegoat. He is a terrible late game leader. Push them back, then prevent (burning time when you need it), then shorter 4th down. Just mind-numming bungles from this guy too often.

That's right, they may have burned all the TOs by then. The ST coach is an issue, the HC is also an issue. Not a well-run gameday organization, particularly late in the game.

if you notice only 9 guys, why not call a TO to setup a block or return.

contributed to it. That is a minute for our offense to have it at the end of the game. And who got the D players in the draft and FA. And whose D strategy was it? Now these morons are even defending the D.

shoop and bulldog defending McD is hilarious. McVey is awful on 4th down (okay). somehow that makes wasting a minute by declining the penalty a non-issue

I’d keep Brady. He has been good so far

it’s not a meaningless loss when you are trying to get the 1 aeed. this is so a continuation of McD late game blunders. the d was awful, but that does not excuse the HC continuing to make late game errors

Defense was the main issue, McD did not help, but this is McD’s D. So much salary cap and draft capital there

dude. Valid criticism of McD’s late game disasters are fine. You are trolling now.

walk. won’t miss them next game. Practice Squad would be just as good
