That's the point. You can point to fluky with a hail mary or tipped pass (remember Diggs vs. NO?). Look at poor NO (at least they have their SB). One year Diggs & the next the most blatant non-call PI followed by Brees showing his age & TB beating them and in a blink of an eye it's all over. Fortunately Josh is much younger.

McD has often said he wants to see a balance and always is praising the run game. Can see it with Allen's stats this year. As good as they were Allen was only 10th in the league in passing yards/gm. I'd love it if McD wanted the #1 Offense in Football, not the #1 Defense. The Bills were #3 in Offense, but only 9th in passing. Funny they were 6th in rushing (thanks Josh Allen again). If anything they should strive to be better on Offense, but won't hear that from McD. What they need too is a better DL and more sacks. Again the Bills feasted on bad QB's. The only good QBs all year were Mahomes & Brady. Then Tannehill & Ryan & that was it. Then you had Newton, Roethlisberger, Wentz, back-ups & rookies. Everything aligned for the Bills. There was no Rodgers, Burrow, Herbert, Prescott, Stafford, Jackson, Cousins.....

Even Brady got a lot of breaks to get to all those Super Bowls. This one will hurt. Remember the Saints 3 years ago, so much for them returning to the big game. Scorp83 was bang on. It's one thing for mistakes throughout the game however when you screw up 13 seconds like no team has ever done before that's another.

I was more shocked that after the last two games that was not able run away for Allen. Without those games he would have been third. Maybe I watch with rose colored glasses but as far as I can tell there's still a lot more that Allen can do. Next year Lawrence may replace Allen in the conversation....

Huh? I posted and commented on an article I saw. Really this is an issue?

He has certainly improved & I have said so many times. However I also will point out when he has not done a good job. Someone started it I just made the comment about the missed opportunities.

I thought it was very interesting and as explained much of what was interesting was in the comment section. If you aren't interested just pass. Sheez....

How about 4th Down at 7-7 at Midfield? Or 4th and 1 first possession of the second half? Or should I go back to the Houston playoff game in 2019 and all the mistakes McD made, shutting down the offense the second half?

Know this will piss off some..... Diggs was no #1 last Sunday.....

Good for him. Best of luck. Seems a decent guy. However I was 50/50 about him. I think McD didn't help the offense at all.

R U kidding me? Typical Bills

Or if properly defenced and kicked, the 25-30 or shorter. Squibb or kick short of the endzone better then Mahomes and no coverage.

Ie. In it has never happened....

The Bills don't call many crossing routes/slants, and seemingly less and screens. The receivers aren't YAC type either, except McKenzie. But yes there is no one defenses are too worried about. Sunday though Davis burned them on one on one coverages.

Another stoopid question.... Don't ST/Kickoff teams do a huddle when they go out on the field (TV never shows it) before the kick? And if they do, wouldn't Bass say what he is doing on the kick? If he says kicking it through the endzone and they were told sqibb/short kick, someone says "WTF we were told squibb/short!!!". The more I think about it, the more my head hurts... ...

And so I was shouting at the TV and explaining to friends over (not as detailed football fans as I am). It seemed like mid year vs. the Raiders. As too stated there are issues with coaching for both teams throughout every game, which is what I expected to discuss if the Bills lost (all before those 13 seconds). No idea why the coaches thought this was a game about field position.

As I have said repeatedly, after gaining 7+ yards anytime on first down, to me it is always RPO, rollouts on second/third down and then go for it worst case scenario on fourth.

And without McD..... They had training wheels on or reins (take your choice😜) 2018-2019, and many a time this year. Heck the wind game, they realized the second half that Allen could handle it. I hope Daboll gets a head coaching job and does well, but conversely expect too that Allen will be better.

I thought people here would be interested . Really what's your problem with the thread? What misery? I was surprised at the poll (pretty sparse and little in the article). What made me laugh was the comments section. Geez, talk about get a life....

Yes, will be deleted if needs to be. Not much of an article, more so was surprised Allen wasn't #1 and fun reading the comments and how upset Lamar fans are and the Burrow's support. Joe is great, but what Chase can do is unbelievable. I know it shouldn't (and hasn't been mentioned), but where was Diggs Sunday. A #1 with <10 yards receiving???

Anyone else read this? https://theathletic.com/3088403/2022/01/27/joe-burrow-josh-allen-or-justin-herbert-which-rising-young-qb-would-nfl-coaches-and-execs-take-now/ What is interesting is so much love for Burrow & also Herbert. Again seems many underestimate Allen (especially coaches). Then read the comment section (up to 445 as of Friday 8:00 am) and the love for Burrow is off the chart, with of course too many pissed Lamar Jackson isn't there (remember he made the Pro Bowl, not Allen or Burrow). What I have said all year, outside lousy weather, the one thing that holds him back is coaching. Even the last two games, I swear, his stats could have been even better. It was only when down 23-14 that Josh was "unleashed" imo. Heck where was that 400 yard game this year.

And that is what I thought would be discussed this week. Never did I think it would be multiple errors over 13 seconds!!!!! Reid made mistakes too (that third & 1 trick play that resulted in a FG). As Bills fans we could be talking about so many plays not made that cost the Bills, but it was all about 13 seconds. However I was screaming as said in front of my friends, apoplectic when Dabol on those two drives after 7 yard gains on first down ran the next two plays & punted. The Bills punted 4 times (KC 2 punts & 2 FGs). Those two punts (one at midfield) were huge coaching blunders.

Then again, what about the next two plays? How communication could so be botched is unbelievable. We're doing a short/squibb kick, let's not tell Bass. My analysis was the approach and there is no doubt Bass is kicking it out of the endzone. They royally f'd up 13 seconds, end of story!!!!

Or they know it is a touch back because with a 7 yard approach all Bass kicks go through the endzone.

No worse..... Cincy and Burrow in the SB his second year....? No thanks
