Playing better now

Good lord.

If you say so

what a performance by the rams.

I don’t think Hines ward could’ve have done that. Doesn’t have the juice Shakir has

Gotta know how to push off just enough to not get caught.

Wow

He’s missing when we need him to hit. Making plays on 3rd downs and hitting on wide open TDs wins games . The d is playing worse than him. He hits 2 throws instead of missing and this is probably a one score game.

Poor games for two of our most consistent players this year. Allen and Rapp

What a play

It could be our day of Josh starts to do Josh Allen things. 2 huge misses is the difference in the game

Turnover would be nice

Time for an epic double dip!!

We are totally- but if Josh doesn’t under throw Mack,we’re winning.

Rapp got worked

Rams playing one helluva game on O. Impressive. They’ve made a bunch of great plays

Mack!!

Josh missing Hollins again after beating his man

Attacking Hamlin at will

Mcd knows we’re going to roll them by 30 and wants to get a look at him in garbage time

Yes- and you know who else has had bad coaching moments in the playoffs? Sean McDermott- and it’s reason we are talking about this. just so happens McD has proven to be able to beat Reid and Mahomes on a regular basis. While the guy you’re opining for has a .000 winning percentage against them. The reason he has 2 Super Bowl appearances under his belt is because he doesn’t have to face Mahomes in the conference playoffs. Your only defense is “but the QB”. Yes, McDermott has helped develop a super talented raw prospect into the best player in the league. Shanny had a chance to develop a similar prospect and he’s now a bum. Who knows what would’ve happened if he had Allen. Would he have failed in developing him like he did with Lance? We don’t know- McDermott developed Allen- and succeeded. The only ammo you are bringing to this gunfight is “but shanny doesn’t have Josh Allen”. You’re right, he doesn’t. And we’ll never know what he can do with him. But we can pretend ….and that will tell us who’s right…… and if you don’t pretend- then you’re a hostile coward 🤣 the offensive guru that doesn’t have the offensive horse he needs to win it all vs the defensive guru that doesn’t have the horse he needs to win it all. McD is a defensive HC that has put the majority of his resources into the D. Those defenses have been ravaged with injuries the last 2 seasons (3 if you include not having our best player, cornerback, in the 13 sec debacle). We can pretend to know how good McDs defenses would’ve been with bosa, armstead, Hargrave, warner and co. We know he can make lemonade out of lemon DBs. but none of that matters….. it’s fantasy land. What we KNOW is McDermott HAS actually had much better success vs reid and Mahomes than shanny. In fact, he’s the only one of the two to have ANY success vs Reid and Mahomes. But Josh Allen….. which brings us back to fantasy land. enjoy

You don’t matter You better watch out- the Josh Allen can never do any wrong minions will try and take you out Turk!!

I don’t think the FA class was that bad tbh- Curtis Samuel- 3 year- 24M- certainly has t lived up to his contract and has been a disappointment. He looked like a different player vs KC- so I have hopes that his toe injury was the major factor in his lack of production the first 2/3 of the season. He can still live up to that contract. Daquan Jones - 2 years -16M. Hasn’t lived up to the contract- but still has a chance to reap some dividends. He’s been very good in the past- there’s hope imo. Hollins- 1 year- 2.6M GREAT value imo - great role player- incredible blocker in the run and pass game - great at running rub routes- has been a nice complimentary target and has a handful of crucial catches/TDs/first downs. Rapp- 3 year - 10.6M. he’s been very good imo- seemed like an overpay initially- seems like solid value now. Smoot- 1 year - 2.5M - had been a very solid addition- until injury. David Edward’s- 2 year 6M- looks like great value. Austin Johnson- 1 year 3.5M- overpay- but he’s made a couple splash plays. Cam Lewis - 2 years 4M- everyone hates on him- but he’s worth that contract imo. Nicholas morrow- 1 year 1.1M- meh- w/e Mike Edward- 1 year -2.8M. (1.6 gtd) complete failure - claypool- 25k gtd- fail but at 25K, was worth the roll of the dice.

Yes I agree 💯 with this rationale. in this case- I don’t think firechan is fully representative of this. He believes in the Bills. I think he just likes to try to “win” every back and forth he’s engages in. He was backing McD all offseason and I think he believes in him (but I could be wrong). I feel he’s more anti- Beane than McD. in this particular case- he chose Shanny over mcd- and is fighting tooth and nail to “win”. Resorting to the land of make believe and hypothetical opinions in order to do so. And in this particular case, we can only go by what has actually happened. And McD/Beane has the highest winning % vs Reid and Mahomes (iirc) currently in the league. While Shanny is O’fer life and has choked in bad ways. blame it on not having a QB——but that’s all the more of an indictment of they the COMBO of shanny/lynch is less likely to take them down then our current regime. They have failed in landing a QB that can overcome their own deficiencies at take down the top dogs- whereas mcd/beane have drafted a raw QB many thought had little chance to become great- and have developed him so much that he’s now the best player in the league. Some think that’s all on Josh- some think that a QB needs the proper support and coaching in order to get there. I’m a believer that a QBs support system is a big part of that (but definitely not all). the reality is- shabby has choked more than mcd in the playoffs. 13 seconds is a debacle. 28-3 in the Super Bowl is much worse. The Bills were 2 full games away from a Lombardi. The falcons were a half away from from winning a Lombardi and shanahans decision making in that entire half is the reason they lose. Mcd royally screwed up a 13 second instance. Not an entire half. Then Shannys poor decision making in both of his Super Bowl appearances led to his team losing both the Reid/mahomes. yet he thinks my opinion of a make believe scenario would somehow have any relevance. While my opinion is “maybe- maybe not”- similar to how I feel most people think about this strange question.

Yeah I saw . I loved the acquisition when we signed him. I thought he was a great get and value. I was wrong— and I’m man enough to admit it. I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong!!!!!
