Out of curiosity, where do you feel like the game was too much for McDermott calling plays and doing game management though? Losing to KC in the playoffs wasn't because McDermott had too much on his plate IMO. If anything I feel like he's had more blunders this year with game management

Fair but Don't you think it's worth the gamble though? IMO it's gonna come down to the defence, and it can't look too much worse than it does right now

Exactly. Which is why I want change and McDermott to take over. This defence doesn't have much of a pulse the last 3 weeks

With our luck, chiefs are gonna screw us Lose against Pittsburgh so that the bills play the starters the last week, only for them to beat Denver the last week haha

Ya I like Joe Brady overall, but he didn't have his best game today IMO

Last year, maybe. But against Mahomes/Burrow in 4 total playoff games, I don't believe they have intercepted a pass or caused a fumble

Haha alright Fair enough

I think this is where we might be in disagreement. Ya they got a TD. But was that cause the bills forced it, or was it because it was a dumb play by New England? Relying on turnovers in the playoffs to get stops is not a recipe to win, as Mahomes, Lamar etc aren't going to make those dumb plays

So you thought the defence played well today? Considering the opponent as well

I thought they were like 18th or something like that, but I could be wrong .

Every team the bills play they miss starters as well. And let's be honest the bills defence isn't exactly missing "key starters ". Rapp? Ok fair. Hamlin, Milano and Douglas aren't really big losses at this stage

When you define defensive scoring, do you mean PPG allowed or more like EPA statistics? As I can't keep track with all the stats these days haha

This is very true^. It definitely is a mix of soft zone, but also a lot of pressure. In not ideal times lol

It's the patriots offence. They average 18 ppg. One of the worst offences in the league. So ya they made plays the bills defence, but I have high standards against a crap offence like that

That was probably his best game plan of the year in my opinion as he did a good job . Can't just single out one game though. Want me to list the bad games?

I think it's definitely both and not saying it's all Babichs fault. But jeez, OCs seem to be taking his lunch money week after week. If you disagree all good, as I get it's probably an unpopular opinion and he's a likeable guy

Theres no doubt the D line sucks and I agree with that. But Babich is still very lost calling plays IMO and doesn't have a good feel for what offences want to do

No- My point is the bills were fully healthy against the rams and still let up 44 points

Did that matter against the Rams?

The bills defence made some big plays when they needed to today, but... Bobby Babich is a big problem in my opinion. It's not all his fault as the pass rush is still bad. But It almost seems like he is guessing a lot of times and the opposing OC usually is a step ahead. I know it's a bit bold but if I am McDermott, I've seen enough and I'm taking the play calls from him the rest of the year. What do you guys think? Might be an unpopular opinion so feel free to roast away if you want, but I definitely feel strongly about this

Win or lose this was a horrible display by the Bills today

These refs just gifted New England this drive . Pathetic calls

12 penalties and half of them shouldn't have been called. Soft call after soft call

I usually don't complain about refs but this is pathetic

Haha alright , fair enough then
