That's a tough road slate, but I actually prefer facing these big baddies on the road. And I'll definitely be at that Rams game!

Denver hiring Nathaniel Hackett as HC
TheBrownBear replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
Congrats to Nate. I know we loved to sh*t on him here when he was our OC, but we didn't really have a great amount of talent on those offenses, he was really green, and we were in QB hell. I'm sure he's grown as a coach over the years, and by all accounts, he's a really likeable guy. Good luck to him. -
Are we overplaying this team's chances had we won?
TheBrownBear replied to Success's topic in The Stadium Wall
I honestly believe we would have killed the Bengals. Their defense would have been completely defenseless against our offensive weapons. Burrow would need to play a perfect game and I don't see that happening yet on that stage in our stadium. Super Bowl vs. the Rams is probably a toss-up. I'd almost think we'd be a slight dog in that game since I like the Rams d-line against our o-line. But we would definitely have a legit shot to walk away with the Lombardi. This isn't the '17 or '19 Bills who really didn't have a shot to win big. -
FIRE MCDERMOTT AND FRAZIER = Yes, probably overreaction. JFC, HOW DID THAT ACTUALLY HAPPEN? HOW ARE WE NOT HOSTING A HOME AFCCG? HOW DID KELCE GET SO OPEN? WHY DOES GOD HATE US AND WANT US TO BE MISERABLE FOR A MINIMUM OF THE NEXT 2-3 WEEKS? = probably just about the perfect reaction Wow. Great game! Bummer we lost, but, man, how great is Josh Allen and how lucky are we to have him? We've got a 10 year window of SB runs ahead of us. And, by the way, aren't those Chiefs fans great with their cheeky $13 donations? = Underreaction
-
The only way you're beating the Chiefs is with Cover 2 and a front four of elite pass rushers that can get after Mahomes and actually bring him down. I think we actually did a halfway decent job of pressuring him in the first couple of quarters, but just didn't have the type of playmaker that could close the deal and take him to the turf. That's why I still believe we need to devote most of our resources in the offseason to finding those d-line pieces. Hopefully, Epenesa, Rousseau and Basham can take the next step in 2022.

Mic'd up: Kelce outsmarted McDermott/Frazier
TheBrownBear replied to beebe's topic in The Stadium Wall
Same here. 20-30 seconds left and that's a mistake, but there's only 13 seconds to move 40 yards, that's the play. I'm sure the staff realizes this now and we won't see the same mistake in the future, but it was a tough way to learn that lesson. -
Mic'd up: Kelce outsmarted McDermott/Frazier
TheBrownBear replied to beebe's topic in The Stadium Wall
Depressing to watch for sure. In hindsight we should have rushed 2 at most and used the extra coverage to bump and blanket Kelce and Hill the first 5-10 yards downfield. The fact that he was given a free release and then that we never got a guy within 5 yards of him is inexcusable. That's almost enough right there to warrant firing Frazier. The guy has been in the league forever, and that's what he comes up with when you absolutely need to be at your best for just 13 seconds? Oh vey! -
Calvin Ridley...do they bills go all in!?
TheBrownBear replied to Hebert19's topic in The Stadium Wall
I dunno. Is he done taking care of his mentals? -
Josh Allen is a future HOFer. There I said it...
TheBrownBear replied to Big Turk's topic in The Stadium Wall
I said he was a future hall of famer 2 years ago. You could see it pretty clearly then if you knew what to look for. -
Chief Fans Make Donations to Childrens Hospital

Good stuff. -
Isaiah McKenzie aka, Lil Dirty, sounds like he’s moving on
TheBrownBear replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
I like Beas as a player, but yeah, the comparison is laughable. Kupp is an absolute stud. He also has Beasley by like 6 inches. They are in no way, shape or form comparable players. -
Honestly what do you do moving forward?
TheBrownBear replied to Milanos Milano's topic in The Stadium Wall
- I think our secondary is fine for one more year assuming that Tre comes back heathy (and there's no reason to believe he won't). Maybe draft a developmental guy in the mid rounds. - Edmunds needs to be replaced or kicked to an outside backer position. - Find one stud defensive end via FA or trade. I think this is truly the one missing piece from this team. - Re-sign McKenzie and put him to use in Beasley's role. Let Beasley walk. Watching KC stretch out our D you realize you need that speed piece in the offense and McKenzie can provide it at a reasonable price tag. If McKenzie leaves, then I make a speedster/slot guy a high priority in FA or in the 1st two rounds of the draft. - Add more big uglies in the interior O-Line. Prioritize center and guard. We need to let Feliciano and Ford go. - Find a Moss replacement. Big back that can pick up a few tough yards. -
Oh no you didn't. Lol.

I'm a UCLA grad and a HUGE UCLA basketball fan who still catches multiple games in person every season. Last year's Final Four halfcourt buzzer beater loss to Gonzaga was being talked about as maybe the greatest Final Four game in history. Great to see your team be part of a historic moment. Not so great when they are on the losing end. Between that loss and last night - this past year has been a tough test of my resiliency as a sports fan, I'll tell you that much.
-
Knox was wide open over the middle on the Davis 75 yard TD. He was out there, but had to stay in to help with protections a bit and KC was set to stop him.

I honestly thought that Josh was going to be a "monster" this year. I thought he'd go for something like 45 TDs/5 Ints and a 15-2 regular season record. We finally saw that Josh late in the season and into the playoffs. Lets hope we can just pick up where we left off this September (with some improvements, of course, and a healthy Tre). I agree. The last guy to touch the ball was going to win that game. No doubt in my mind that Josh was going to conjure up whatever was needed when he got the ball back. Unfortunately, we were on the short end of the clock and the coin flip.
-
I had no problem with the decision to kick it out of the endzone if Tyreek Hill were back there. No way would I give that guy an opportunity to touch the ball in open space in that scenario. If he's not out there (and he wasn't), then I like the option of kicking it high to the 5-10 yard line. Surprised that didn't happen without Hill on the field.

Comparison to 1989 and 2021 Bills
TheBrownBear replied to ManCrushPassRush's topic in The Stadium Wall
I do like the comparison to the '89 squad. Came in with "next step" Super Bowl aspirations, but both ended up playing uneven over the course of the season and even had a little drama thrown in (bickering bills vs. Beas/Covid stuff). But I also agree with you that it feels like a much tougher row to hoe currently with Mahomes and other elite young guns like Herbert and Burrow potentially standing in your way every year for the next 10+ seasons (not to mention any other greats who come along in the next few years). Our window is open now and we really need to take advantage of it next year by winning the close regular season games and sweeping the division and all of the other gimme games that we should win. We are way too talented of a team with this version of Josh Allen to have been sweating making the playoffs out of the AFC East with 4 weeks left in the season. And going on the road to Arrowhead in the playoffs is a recipe for failure. I want these guys at home next year. -
I don't think I can watch the Chiefs win another Super Bowl. If the Bengals play the Rams or Niners, I'll probably tune in, but it won't be a big production. Just watch at home for as long as it seems like a decent game.
-
Yep. And that's why I didn't attack you personally. Thanks for the kind words. If we lash out at you, it's because we are hurting and trying to lick our wounds for a bit. And I'll say, for as good as Josh Allen was last night, Mahomes was every bit as great. His ability to magically escape the rush and extend plays in the first two quarters were probably the difference in the game. Our D actually played well in the first half IMO. Good pressure. Solid coverage. Mahomes just kept barely eluding their grasp and then showing off his wheels and tremendous accuracy. He basically wore us out and we had nothing left in the tank when we needed it most. Guy is an all-time great for sure. Same with Kelce and Hill (as much as it pains me to say it). Those guys are just All-World talents that can break a defensive gameplan - no matter how well devised.
-
I'm not going to say that Frazier sucks. He's shown over many years to be an above-average defensive coordinator at the NFL level. That's no easy feat. But yes, the last series or regulation was atrocious - particularly that last play to Kelce. I absolutely cannot fathom how you can let him run completely free like that 15-20 yards up the field. You know Mahomes has to get rid of it lightning quick there. They aren't looking to beat you deep. They are looking for 15-20 yards and then to hit the ground ASAP. Watching that replay over and over and it's completely maddening. I just don't understand how you let that happen.
-
I feel the same. Not gonna trash this OP personally. Not sure what his real motivation is for coming by here. Maybe he really was impressed with the Bills, has some empathy, and just wanted to share it with us. But it sure does feel like rubbing salt in the wound when you're on the losing side of the experience.

Lol. You are one evil SOB!
