HappyDays

McDermott speaking now. Kincaid is day to day, Hyde and Epenesa are week to week. So we are likely going to be without Hyde and Epenesa against the Cowboys...

Which points? It seems inarguable that Kelce >>>> Diggs yesterday (and over the past few weeks) and that Mahomes had much better pass protection yesterday. It is a testament to how poorly the Bills have built an offense around Allen that even with Mahomes having the worst WR group of his career, he still arguably has a better situation than Allen does. Everyone can agree both offenses right now are relying on their QBs to make otherworldly plays. That is not a sustainable method of scoring points. The Bengals backup QB stepped in and is scoring 30+ points. If the Bills or Chiefs backup QBs had to play full games it would be a disaster.

Yesterday Mahomes still had his go to guy in Kelce. Allen didn't have a go to guy. He had to basically make it happen on his own, with some help from Cook. And Mahomes had much better pass protection too. KC was getting home with 3 man rushes. Allen making a couple more great plays than Mahomes is why we won IMO.

His numbers have been great because he's a top 15 WR with a top 2 QB throwing him the ball. But his play on the field just hasn't been up to his usual standard this year IMO. More drops than usual, no contested catches, he's having trouble separating against other teams' CB1s. Like Mahomes' weapons tonight mostly sucked but he could still rely on Kelce as his go to guy when all else failed. Allen didn't have a go to guy tonight, or much at all in recent weeks.

AJ Brown's QB is average IMO. He is the main reason their passing offense does anything at all. He's pretty clearly better than Diggs this year. Other than Hill and Brown - Jefferson (when healthy), Chase, Wilson, Metcalf, Adams, Cooper. Those are the really dominant WRs this year (in no particular order), obviously with a high variance in the level of QB they have throwing the ball to them. DJ Moore, Lamb, and Mike Evans, I'm not quite there but close. I'm not sure Diggs is playing equal or better football over the past two months than any of the WRs I mentioned above.

It wasn't just this week though. He has not played like a top tier #1 WR really since the London game. It's a legit concern. Especially since the WRs behind him are below average, we need our #1 to be elite to make up for it. I don't think this team has the necessary weapons to win a Super Bowl. Even if you assume best case scenario and we make it to the Super Bowl to play 49ers, Eagles, and Cowboys, how are we possibly going to compete against those rosters?

I think the constant screens were an effort to get KC out of blitzing. Not that it mattered, they were getting equally effective pressure on 3 man rushes. Josh had his hands full today. Very little time kept clean and his WRs couldn't get open against single man coverage. And there were like 4 drops mixed in there too.

Lol Mahomes is facing the first string of adversity ever in his career, and is absolutely losing his mind over it.

Allen Cook Douglas Oliver

I don't think either team deserved that win to be honest. I thought both QBs played amazing but were constantly let down by their pass catchers. We lost in the trenches on both sides of the ball and had some really poor end of half coaching moments in both halves, but hey we got the win and kept our playoff hopes alive. I'll take it.

You know what, they arguably did not actually hold on the last drive, they just got lucky that Toney is the dumbest man on the planet, but I'll give them credit for leigimately holding on the previous drive and finding a way to make the stop after the offside penalty.

Such a weird win but I'll take it.

Both QBs have played amazing and been let down by their pass catchers

Rashee Rice makes the play that Diggs couldn't. Nice.

Why do we always call the most predictable blitz of all time on the first play of the last defensive drive?

Nobody was open

Not at all. He evaded the sack but none of his pass catchers could separate from single man coverage. Our weapons stink.

These WRs are not separating from single man coverage. Diggs included unfortunately.

Diggs has completely fallen off. It's a huge concern.

Clutch throw!!

Beane has utterly failed to build an offense around his franchise QB. Our weapons stink. Our OL stinks.

There aren't any. No part of this team is crisp. That's on coaching.

Horizontal passes are not working. Take them out of the play book.

Omg Davis is awful, so sick of him
