Great find, thank you!

They have no examples of it. Nobody is saying anything that would suggest as much. It makes certain posters more comfortable to dismiss these opinions as byproducts of hate so they can ignore validity or distract from the topic. The argument has always been he fails in the postseason. It hasn't been anything else. I don't think I have even insulated him before by calling him stupid or this or that. He's just not the guy you want chasing a Lombardi.

5 minutes mark is dead on He is basically the same as Dungy. Very similar philosophies, people, etc.

Somebody say foot doctor?

He's at the very least above average. If I need 10 wins in the NFL in the regular season I would pick him over anybody in football. What does that say about our broader goals? Not much. Which is what the conversation is about to me at this point.

Quit baiting, the thread was over yesterday. You have added nothing relevant to this conversation today outside of talking about me.

Yes, I'm lying to myself about my emotions, about my teams head football coach. I don't have energy in my life to hate somebody I don't know and will never meet. I enjoy debating and I strongly disagree with your takes and others out here. Which means literally nothing for how I feel about Sean freaking McDermott. It's better for people like yourself to simplify this topic into such basic things to dismiss the validity of the opinion. Happy to come back to this thread in a few years and we can see whose opinions were more valid.

You're so out of the loop with how this actually is. No hate here, still proud of the team. Still hopeful for the season. Still want to see this regime win a Super Bowl. Still feel everything else I said the other day. Life's challenges and thoughts don't fit in neat little boxes.

I'm happy you felt the need to let me know you're happy

Add me in for a 3rd. I was a huge NFL historian growing up. Taped anything I could. He was one the all time best. His voice is football. Jealous of the guys who got to see the game back then.

I'm good with this take. If I get some time tomorrow I will take a look at how he has done with one or both Chase and Higgins out. I know they have missed a lot of time. I'm sure he has a decent sample to consider.

I think he would be just fine without them. He's the the best pure passer in football. One of the only ones left who play like QB's used to play.

Burrow is in that group. To say he is a distant 4th is almost as bad as putting Lamar and Mahomes ahead of Josh.

They said strength on strength. But it’s not like we haven’t seen that play blow up in our face in high leverage situations. Titans game a few years ago and the Vikings OT loss. Josh is just better when he has to think for a split second vs thinking go, go, go right from the snap. We should have got the hint with the stop earlier and barely converting. I recall so many situations where teams like us will take the next step by going for the throat in that spot. We won’t win many of these games trying to survive like we did vs Baltimore. That’s how we play these close games in the playoffs towards the end.

Which is why we ran the sneak.

Things that Vince Lombardi never said for $100. You control your own fate or you're a victim.

I don't play in this gray abyss you call home.

You're playing the defending SB champions at home who have historically got the calls, who have already stopped you once on a QB sneak, who were seemingly getting the better spots all night. That is why you don't run a play like we ran. You give Allen a run pass option like we did in the regular season vs KC when Allen had his MVP moment. We just played scared. That's who we are in those moments.

I will be sure to add "we should have won" to Injuries, Chiefs, and it's just really hard.

1. The Bills should have been better than that play call 2. The game should have never come down to that 3. It hardly explains prolonged postseason success that we haven't been able to achieve. People have been getting misplaced credit since the beginning of time. Nothing new here. They're both above average at what they do. Not irreplaceable by any stretch as some make them out to be. Meanwhile what was a potential dynasty is falling to the wayside defended by the fear of the playoff drought.

The magic act isn't winning a Super Bowl, its convincing people of a level of competency that is higher than it actually is as a result of Josh. That people like you will die on the hill for as years pass, our window closes, and your comments age like old cheese in the sun. We can come back for a whiff in a few years. It's not like we haven't done that already. People can give examples of anything. The Chiefs have been to 7 straight AFC championships. Won multiple Super Bowls. It feels more like they make the luck themselves.

Eagles won shortly after he left. He didn't win until Mahomes. If Allen isn't McD's Mahomes, who is?

He went to 4 Super Bowls prior. He won with an entirely new regime. Not a ringing endorsement. or logic

I mean if the entire roster in fact that good, they will win at least one, if not several. I will eat my crow happily and it will be a great thing. 8 years down, how many more we have left? 6-7 years?
