    This feels worse to me cuz after you get screwed you have to watch some combination of Andy Reid, pat mahomes, and the Kelce brothers in 3 consecutive commercials 🤣

    Yes, the Pats weren’t also a pop culture/tabloid phenomenon. The Chiefs represent many things that people find obnoxious.

    Shakir is elite.  To have the number he had this year while only seeing the field 60ish% of the time is quite amazing.

     

    I like the every body eats philosophy but next year this guy needs to be on the field 85+% of the time

    I always look at it this way, if the player was on KC, what would this board say about them? I promise that players like Dawkins, Shakir, Cook, Brown, and Johnson would be considered special talents if they were on KC. I’m sure Andy Reid would scheme Shakir into being an all time great slot receiver as well. We tend to undervalue our best players as a way to justify losing to the Chiefs, and their great coaching staff. Besides Mahomes, who made elite plays for KC? We lost because we didn’t play our best, and were out coached.

    I didn't look at the game we just played and see a big difference in rosters, maybe that's just me

    We shouldn’t keep losing to KC in the playoffs by just a few points if the talent disparity is great as some claim. The games wouldn’t be that close.

    Counterpoint:

     

    two years in a row Josh Allen had the ball in his hand with 3 min left down 3 vs the Chiefs and scored 0 points.

     

    Also very odd point to reference our #1 offense and then reference all the top 10 offenses that didn’t win Superbowls. Maybe our offense was too good to win this year? 

    Josh definitely deserves some blame, but I think there’s a reason we have zero points in those situations against the Chiefs. We hinder ourselves not letting Josh be Josh. In both three minute situations, the OC called plays based on running the clock. We never fully unleashed the offense because we wanted to score with no time left. That’s a tough game to play. It seems like we don’t want McD’s precious defense to be the reason we lose on a final possession.

    You all realize that even the Chiefs don't have the perfect roster, right? You don't to get the championship game by not being talented enough. They are just better in big games 

    Yeah, I think we need a separate post here where we can compare the Chiefs and Bills roster. I don’t think the talent disparity is as great as many claim. I don’t like most of Beane’s recent moves, but we didn’t lose to an elite Kelce. We lost to Mahomes and a bunch of offensive players we’d consider subpar if they were on our roster.

    Well you're calling Josh a liar 

     

    Josh said coming out of college he wants to play for one franchise his entire career 

     

    Ever since he got here he said his goal is to retire a Buffalo Bill 

     

    So yes.. Josh is not going to torch his legacy in Buffalo for a maybe super bowl lol

     

    Nothing says the Rams or niners are going to be good for the next 3 or 5 years

     

    We have just as much as a shot... So yes destroying a legacy he built for a maybe is pretty dumb 

     

    I'm pretty sure he could also have a maybe super bowl here.. John elway didn't win till he was at the end

    This is a negative topic I don’t even like thinking about, but I don’t believe there’s zero chance Josh would ever leave. The possibility is always there. Sometimes ones personal goals supersede worries about what others think. He wouldn’t necessarily be “a liar” because things change in life. No one gets married talking about the divorce, but situations can change. I don’t think he’s going anywhere. That only happens if his relationship with McD is secretly bad.

    At least we saved our timeouts because we all knew we’d stop Mahomes and get the ball back.

     

    Shakir is basically the outlet there. I just don’t get the play. I think this will drive Allen crazy all off season. I’m not sure what the plan was if the blitz came.

    The inability to force a punt after the Kincaid play is an underrated defensive fail as well. I’m not saying we had a great chance anymore, but that’s where a competent defense makes a stop.

    Also don’t go empty set, put a RB back there to save Josh if needed. Also a safety outlet. Brady sucked the last 2 weeks.

    Brady was absolutely terrible, and I’m

    surprised that isn’t universally agreed upon here. Any Madden play caller could score points with Allen. It’s all what you do when it counts most, and Brady has nothing special. He runs the same stuff over and over. We’ve seen the same short pass plays to Cook and Shakir all season with very little variation. We have the talent to succeed, but putting that repetitiveness on tape against someone like Spags is bad news.

    And still I don't know why the obsession is over the protection call. It didn't matter. Even if the protection was perfect, Kincaid was wide the hell open and would have been the target and would have needed to come down with the catch. For as wide open as he was a pop fly was the best possible throw because it's impossible to conceive that he could fail to track and catch it with so much space around him.

     

    Look at it from this angle:

     

    There's nothing but space in every direction! This is worse than muffing a punt. There's nothing else about this play that is worth talking about. The guy that we traded up for in the 1st round choked, plain and simple.

     

    That was a great video. Kincaid basically needed to make the catch like a baseball outfielder. Instead he poorly tracked the ball, ran incredibly slow (as usual), and made the catch much more difficult than it needed to be. It would have been a very tough catch, but I think he made it that way.

    The Chiefs win because in these close games guys always do their jobs and they do not make mistakes.  That may or may not be coaching -I think it’s a big part of it - but that’s what wins these close games.

    I agree, but I also can’t see the Chiefs running countless failed tush pushes, or horribly designed short yardage attempts. That’s on coaching. They also wouldn’t take James Cook out of the game on the final series.

    True, but ... Dan Campbell's swagger didn't help much in the playoffs either.

    I agree with you about McD looking nervous, but I think we need to be honest about our own team: the Chiefs are better. Better at key positions, with more playmakers, particularly on defense. We all got fooled by how they kind of got to 15-1 with smoke and mirrors and blocked field goals and other flubs by their opponents. But in the end, they were the best, most complete team in the AFC. We're really good, but they outplayed us. We really didn't deserve to have the chance to tie or win with 3 minutes left on the clock. And I'm not sure any Dan Campbell or Harbaugh changes that.

    I don’t disagree, but the best roster on paper doesn’t always win. There’s no reason KC definitely should beat us. They have better defensive talent, but they didn’t exactly shut us down either. These playoff loses to KC are being decided by just a few points. Dan Campbell and the Lions were completely overmatched, but we keep coming close. I blame the close loses on several key coaching decisions that we always seem to botch in the playoffs.

    Overall, McDermott is responsible for everything that happens on the field. He has created this risk-averse, scared-to-make-mistakes culture that reacts rather than dictates. He has every right to tell his OC what he wants. McDermott okays everything that happens on that field. Brady and Allen aren't just doing their own thing. It's more than just what happens on the field that very day. The team was outcoached and outclassed again. The team looked jittery, nervous and unprepared. That is all on my McDermott. 

     

    To me, who replaces him isn't the issue. The issue is that he sucks and he will never win a Super Bowl. So turn the page and find someone else and see what happens.

     

    The fact that Bills fans are afraid to replace this milquetoast loser because we sucked for 17 years is crazy to me. He's no good. He isn't the one. Move on. This is coaching purgatory. We need a new voice and a new approach. 

     

     

    Football teams are typically an image of their coach. People act like I’m crazy when I say this, but McDermott looks nervous in the playoffs on the sideline. He’s not a calming influence, and I think it rubs off on players. We make fun of Mike McDaniels’ halftime interviews, but McD looked and sounded like a nervous mess during the halftime interview. As far as fear of the drought era, these fans are acting like someone in a bum marriage. You don’t stay in it because “you can’t do better”.

    This is probably a troll job haha but I just have to point out that that ball to Kincaid is probably the throw of the year if he comes down with it which he absolutely should have 

     

    It’s impossible to say Allen didn’t do his job 

    I agree, but something tells me the flag on the field that was picked up would have gone against us had Kincaid caught the pass.

    I’m good with it. Last year’s draft looks awful so far. You got a depth WR that’s never open and a safety that has no idea what he’s doing. The year before you got a rotational TE and the year before that a corner that can’t play. Beane has been good with the middle and back of the roster but failed at the top.

    I have a major issue with the fact that Elam was a first round draft pick who was never trusted to be on the field from the start. That rarely happens with a first round corner. Yet this regime allowed him to be one injury away from playing in a conference championship game. It doesn’t make sense to me.

    Yes.  I saw Daltons failures in the first two playoff games, and this season,  and I got chastised my many for saying Dalton has been disappointing.  I tried to warn TBD.  I root for Dalton, but is something is not right.  He is nowhere near the player he was in college, and I’m still perplexed.  

    Since the first time I saw him rookie season he didn’t look like a first round pick, even when he played decently. I watched him a bit in college as well, and he looked great. During his rookie NFL season he looked like a guy who falls to the ground at the first sign of contact, and had zero run after catch ability.

    you think the lack of QB sneak success is a measure of Josh not playing well?

    Yeah the QB sneak was the difference in the game in my opinion. You can always look at a million things, but our inability to execute a simple play is why we lost.

    Worthy is a baller. He's improved a ton since game 1. Started as a gadget guy, now he's a true WR.

    I don’t know why people assume a small fast receiver is a gadget guy. That’s a common skill set in today’s league. The slow receiver who makes contested catches is an outdated concept.
