They need to be active in free agency. First year players are usually useless.

I get it. It’s game one though. Unfortunately it’s going to take a few games at least to get things going. In this league a few games can cost you later on but we have a victory. We lost our first game last year and it was doom and gloom. lets see how it shakes out in Miami

He’s doing the same thing he’s done every year. His desire to win is great. No difference than any other year. I’m more concerned about the defensive backfield

Nice observations. Regarding Ed Oliver, you’ll see he was double teamed for much of the game.

Lol. Most probably won’t get this.

I know people are banging the defense, but the real reason we lost last night was coaching. They played the scheme they were told to. Our coaches need to learn to stop playing scared. McDermott and staff have issues with in game decisions. Why the conservative play calling for at least 2 quarters? Why are we covering the sidelines when KC has 3 time outs? Why rush 4? Why not squib kick the kick off? Theres some type of disconnect with coaching. Im sick over this.

With the advent of multiple camera angles, new absurd judgements penalty calls and rule changes, you will never find consistency from one crew to the next. The solution? Let the players actually play football and only call blatant penalties. I notice the allowance of pass interference this year, while calling taunting and Ricky tacky holding on big plays.

It’s hard for a team that moved up in the first round to pick him to admit their mistake. He’s not leaving. The mistake is the implied thought he might be the next Kuechly. He’s playing out of position, that’s obvious. They have done him no favor.

Discoid or Systemic?

The game plan throughout the playoffs changed. I have no idea why. offensively we stopped using motion and McKenzie. He was a no factor in every game. We brought him in for a couple plays and that was it. We tried to go with intermediate routes when the 5-8 yarders were there consistently. 2nd and 3 we went for stupid plays instead of getting the first down. The defensive game plan as well was total failure. We need a Defensive coach who will gamble and someone who can rush the passer.

This is the 1988 Bills sans the bickering part. The Super Bowl is on the horizon. We are a couple players away.

Terrible I play calling. I’m sorry. The short pass was there all game yet we went downfield medium range all game. We played scared both offensively and defensively.

I’m sorry, we need to score 7s not 3s. What is McDermott thinking? Our D is going to get 3 and outs?

Not a lot of 3rd and shorts with this offense, but 2nd and short might be ok. Id prefer to go with what brought us here unless KC gives us the run. I believe which ever defense plays best will come out victorious. I like our chances.

They can go ***** themselves.
