I agree with EVERY word here! Many weeks later, I’m still so ***** angry, I have never talked about it with my buddies! It was the greatest game in NFL history, punctuated and marred by the worst and most idiotic HCing 13 seconds in NFL history! People on this forum were debating about the squib and calling me out because the Chiefs had 3 TOs. I don’t care if they had 30. They only had THIRTEEN SECONDS! Meaning? A max 3 plays and you wish to eliminate one of them and 3 seconds on the KO. (If you review a couple of recent AFC Championships or SBs, that is exactly what was done under similar circumstances, with twice as much time. THIS WAS ALL ON MCDERMOTT! 1) While everyone is going crazy after the Davis TD, it is ALL on him to casually go up and physically grab Bass and the Coordinator and tell them exactly what to do! 2) The Bills had 2 TOs. It is up to McD to call one, the moment KC gets ready for their 1st Post KO play. To tell the D, to chip both Kelce and the Criminal. Not tackle, but give them a shot. Again, a 5/10 yard Penalty is nada, 5 seconds is everything. McDermott cost the Bills a SB! I can never forgive that.

THE most important post of this entire saga! 👍🎉

I watched live- the greatest game in NFL Playoff History, concluded by the Worst 13 Seconds of Head Coaching Idiocy in NFL History!!! I don't need to ***** see it ever again!

Interesting. They’d be picking up a ton of YouTube & Netflix at our place… or ‘The Wiggles’ 😂, when the Granddaughters are over! LA itself, has 1000 x more things to do, other than watch the NFL- unlike more than a very few other cities in America!

“My words are not that powerful. I started saying in 1985 I don’t think we should have a music talking about (illegal word) and ***** and hoes. It had no impact. I’ve said it. I’ve repeated it. I still repeat it. To me that’s more damaging than a statue of Robert E. Lee.” The fabulous, Wynford Marsalis Notwithstanding, in the end, we all simply know what we like. While I’m a yuuuge music fan and generally look down on Rap & a lotta Hip Hop, there are 2 others I generally despise. One is Country. The other is Western. To each his own.

I did think of that. But, he definitely was short- regardless. That idiot 3rd Down call, preceded by a stupendously stupid 2nd Down throw away, doomed them! The Bungles HAD to make that First Down to get closer for the FG or 1-2 heaves into the End Zone. Wasting a down, at that juncture, on that field was suicidal!

Get on the blower to Luck!

Well, it coulda been worse. Coulda been the 2 genres I despise, one of them is Country & the other Western! And anytime you get to hear the inspirational ‘Lose Yourself’ is a good day in my books! On the other hand, some peeps thought this was the best one! Really? Act like you’ve actually attended a SB before, let alone listened to and reviewed the 50 odd with a decent show! I had McCartney & MJ and they weren’t the best!

Regular season. I know this is only a game but stakes are also super high. I just think there are outside the box ideas that need implemented to eliminate many officiating snafus.” I had many, including digital technology, but most critically, replacing every slow, blind, fearful Ref with a Division One, High Wonderlic, athlete, not selected in the Draft. Steve Tasker has said you just can’t have a bonus crew sitting around waiting to replace incompetent losers, at a cost of a million $ a year. And why NOT? The NFL is a Trillion $ Biz, owned by 32 Billionaires! An extra mill is a chump change cost to doing Biz. Anyone who misses blatantly obvious calls needs their ass sacked and replaced- asap.

“Is handing the ball to Perine on 3rd and 1 the worst Super Bowl play call in recent history?” NOT handing it to Marshawn Lynch is! And ONLY because it was the SB, does it not pale in comparison to 13 seconds of infamy- the WORST PLAYOFF HC effort in the history of the NFL! ***** YOU, McClapper! Josh should have been carrying the SB trophy through the airport to a greeting of 100k wild, drunk/ stoned Bills Fans!

Watching this SB and knowing that it should have been the Bills’ First W? F*&$&*#*&$#*&$#$*&$#*#$&! Try me again, in August! I should have calmed down by then!

Not good. BUT OURS WAS THE WORST THIRTEEN SECONDS… EVER!

Brain dead 2nd Down!

Rolled out my XXV Game Cup! 🦬👍🏈🎉🇺🇸 Got my XXVII Game Cushion! GO BILLS! 🙄 My bad. GO BUNGLES… 🐅 (FORTHEGAMEWESHOULDBEIN&WIN!)

Hopefully, upgrades for Beasley or Knox! Diggs is at the Pro Bowl! He’s not trolling for dudes from the Sunday Beer League... like the Bills had in Josh’s first year!

Not sure if a majority of Bills fans have checked out Josh’s present rankings. Let’s say he plays at an excellent level and comparable to the past 2 Seasons. Let’s use the ‘5 good seasons’ bar. Barring injury, he would be at the ripe old age of 30. Here goes: ALL TIME TD PASSES- REGULAR SEASON 2021- Ranked # 134 with 103 TDs In 5 years, ranked # 18, 35 TDs per year, just behind Johnny Unitas @ 290. ALL TIME PASSING YARDS- REGULAR SEASON 2021- Ranked # 164 with 14,114 Yards In 5 years, ranked # 36, just behind Tony Romo @ 34,000 yards Here are the cooler ones. The assumption here is that based on the Regular Season performance, Allen is leading the Bills to the Playoffs, to the AFC Championship games and to the obvious possibility of winning 1-2 Super Bowls. ALL TIME TD PASSING YARDS- PLAYOFFS 2021- Ranked # 45 with 1718. Assume just 300 yards per x 15 games. In 5 years, he would presently be ranked # THREE All Time, with 6,200 yards! Behind only Peyton & the GOAT. ( Of course, Rodgers & Mahomes are still rising too- but still. ALL TIME TD PASSES- PLAYOFFS 2021- Ranked # 30 with 14 TDs. Let’s assume a 2.5/ game rate. In 5 years, he would vault to # TWO All Time with about 50 TDs. What about Rushing, since that’s such a critical component of the Bills Offence and Allen’s own ability to succeed Passing? And again- he is NOT an RB! ALL TIME TDs RUSHING- REGULAR SEASON 2021- Ranked # 208 with 31 TDs Assuming average 6/ would be #50 All Time with 61 TDs. Tieing OJ and only behind Cam Newton with 75 and the # 25 position. ALL TIME - RUSHING YARDS- PLAYOFFS 2021- Presently ranked well below # 50 with 371 yards. Assuming the Bills want to reduce the per game average, to ensure he’s healthy, let’s assume 60/ He immediately becomes the ALL TIME QB Playoff Rusher with 671, eclipsing Steve Young at 594 and # 21. Thurman is # 3 with 1442. Simply astonishing! At 30, coupled with Playoff winning success, on his way to being the best of the best... EVER!

13 SECONDS! Not 30, not 90. Somebody here, was trying to tell me, but, but, but, KC has 3 TOs! I didn’t care if they had THIRTEEN TOs!! It takes ***** time to run a single play! Meaning? MAX, they have time for 3. THEREFORE? As I stated contemporaneously with the FUBARed NON Squib Kick, at the time, along with Nance, along by Romo, WHERE was the Squib Kick? That’s on Bass, on the ST Coach, but definitely on the Clapper to ENSURE it’s done to get the clock down to 10 seconds MAX! If Bass hasn’t attempted that 100 x this year, for this very situation, THAT is on McVey!! Next. “How do you pride yourself on attention to detail and situational football and not kick it high to run click, hold the first play for penalty and then knock down inevitable Hail Mary that likely wouldn’t reach end zone. Sorry new poster but the clearer it becomes the more gut wrenching .” Again, as I was now screaming at the TV, contemporaneously with the 2 plays: “Hold them all, hook them all, grab them, tackle them”! Whatever the ***** it takes to burn that time- minimum 5 seconds per play! That would have left ONE Hail Mary, from perhaps the 50! ONE! I don’t believe for a nano second that McVey EVER thought of any of this. 100% caught up in the moment! Never, ever contemplated what to do in this scenario. Far worse, HE called TWO TOs! To do what exactly? Ok, gives Kelce the idea, but you must, must tell your players: “ Tackle him and let Mahomes burn 5-6 secs running around in frustration. This ranks above that idiot Carroll,’s decision, to not go Beast Mode against the Patsies to win the SB! It goes higher than the fool from the Falcons who missed played. an entire quarter in the SB! This is the worst HCing FUBAR OF ALL TIMR IN THE PLAYOFFS! (At some time, we at least need McVey to say more than he did. Like? I made critical mistakes in end of game strategy and this will be corrected and reversed, should we ever be here again!

Why would ANYBODY care about this self entitled buffoon?

The rule is this. Rule 7 Section 4 Article 1 (a): How to give yourself up An official shall declare dead ball and the down ended: (a) when a runner declares himself down by falling to the ground and makes no effort to advance. It takes IMMEDIATE comprehension by the player to scoop up the ball properly, with no bobbling (which they must do in the field of play) and then immediately heading to the ground to show you’re not advancing. IMHO, that will take 3 seconds, for sure. That then leaves 10 seconds to go, from say Max- the 30- 35. Only 2 plays left then to get to the Bills 35 minimum. Regardless of the TOs, it simply takes 5-6 seconds to get down the field and hit the ground on a Pass play. Here’s one more factor. After FUBARing everything.why didn’t Bills defenders keep Kelce UP for 3 more tix to run it out? THAT is what I was screaming then!

TOs with 13 seconds don’t matter at all! There are only 3 plays max. That’s why you burn one on the KO and break it down to Max two. Each of which takes about 5 seconds on any Pass play, regardless of whether you Hold- which you must. This isn’t Quantum Physics! It’s eliminating 13 ticks as creatively as possible.

And he was almost selected in the Draft before the Cheatriots! ah no.... OBD didn’t have Clue One!

Because of the lack of TIME, TIME, TIME! You must run time off with minimal yard damage. Meaning- hold, swipe, hook, tackle Kelce & Hill to run through 6 seconds.

IF you kick it properly, even only to the 15, you are not giving yourself up- there. It’s a time - distance calculation. And the rule is, assuming that’s done properly and not a short Fair Catch FUBAR, the rule is you must give up- by picking the ball up and then falling to the ground. Meaning? Minimum 3-4 ticks. Again, the only ally is reduced time to create a Max 2 play situation for the Chiefs! Kicking without reducing time is virtually 100% incorrect for this situation. A HC MUST know that, have had the Kicker work on it during the season and execute the plan at exactly the correct game time- which was right then!

2.5 days in, let me be as objective as possible. We are not Josh Allen and there is a reason why the word fan is a diminutive. The ‘13 seconds’ is ALL on the Head Coach to defend the wunderkind performance of his young Superstar QB! He failed miserably, both in the Squib Kick option and the setting of the Defense to prevent that FG. The ONLY goal in these efforts is to preserve victory, through the elimination of a very scarce commodity- TIME! Thus, with that small amount left in the game, you must, must eliminate 6-7 seconds through a squib kick, even if the return man gets to the 35 or 40. That leaves ONE and only one attempt to get 30-40 more yards. For that play, you must hold, disrupt, etc. both Kelce & Hill for another 5 seconds. Which leaves KC with one Hail Mary attempt from the 50 assuming a Holding Penalty call! So, it is more than reasonable for angry fanatics to demand that their HC explain, why those things weren’t accomplished, let alone, apparently not even thought of! Full disclosure: I am one who normally thinks that Prosecutors & Investigators of major crimes should never disclose the hidden details of how they reached their successful guilty goal. Likewise, if in Pro Sports, a HC or Manager has an advantage, insight, detail as to why success occurred, he/ she is a fool to disclose it. HOWEVER, the only down side to McD telling his version of what he planned and executed, would be to disclose that he wanted to Squib Kick for future, similar, situations. And after a Billsy Millennium of total FUBARs and hell, he should of. NOT to throw anyone under the Bus, just to confirm that he knows the correct strategies and that those will be rectified in the future.

Forget about old, bitter Jerry! Go re watch the broadcast as BOTH Nance & Romo called out the correct call BEFORE it did not happen- the Squib Kick!!! Because they knew, sure as shite, as many, many posters here did, on the 2nd Half thread, that TIME was the Chiefs ONLY enemy that needed to be defeated. “McDermott was asked today about the final 13 seconds and he said he wishes the execution was different.” 100%! HIS!👎🏻
