Reid is spectacular in his play design and ability to confuse a defense. He creates easy initial reads, and safe second reads. I really think Kelce is not the go to first read on most Chiefs plays (outside of the goal line), but he is a clearly a designed second read where Mahomes knows he can get the ball to most of the time. It almost forces the defense to acknowledge everyone around their best player without having the ability to hone in on him. Reid is just a hall of fame coach. Of course I'd love to have him as the BIlls HC, but that's not how this game works. McD needs to continue to learn and develop, and I know Sean has a long career as a HC ahead of him.

He is, but let’s not act like he was his superhuman self tonight. Reid calls some spectacular motions in the short game and gave Mahomes wide open options at the goal line. Bolton deserved the MVP over Mahomes imo

They don’t have contacts at the moment.

I should have said press man, sorry! Not soft man with a 10 yard cushion

Philly had no idea what to do when the chiefs started motioning their outside receiver. The moment they finally decide to play man? Refs call a BAD hold to give the chiefs the game. just sad frankly. Makes you hate the NFL. Now I need to listen to people saying any flag within two minutes should be reviewed or something it’s a joke

I mean I thought we were playing some damn football. Not touch butt

Jesus lord almighty This is a 12-13 win team year over year barring major injury. Let's not forget, we lost 3 games by a COMBINED 8 points. This team was a kneel down or 4th down redzone conversion from being 15-1. And that's without Hyde the entire year, without White for most of the year, without Miller for the back half of the year, with an injured Allen for 4 weeks, banged up Poyer, banged up Dawkins to start the year, first year OC, Hamlin situation, etc. Like we should be semi EXCITED about how this year went with all of the crap we dealt with.

What's your definition of significant?

If I remember correctly, Diggs was incredibly productive this season from the slot. If we can draft a top end rookie WR to play with Davis on the outside, and leverage Diggs in the slot, we could be a REAL challenge

In what aspects is McDermott not a very good to great coach? 5 playoff appearances in 6 years, 3 straight division titles, players love him, handles situations professionally, brings in FA talent with Beane, great at utilizing timeouts and challenges (something he has improved drastically over the years). He is absolutely a top 8 coach in the league. Payton is an unknown outside of his stint with Brees. Do I think he is also a great coach? Yes. But would I trade a first round pick which could be used to bring in a stud young WR or top Guard for him? Absolutely not. That is an absolute waste of capital. We need more talent around Josh, plain and simple. Do I think Frazier needs to go or change scheme? Yea, thats a conversation worth having. But to dump McD when he has shown consistency in success (something that a lot of people have taken for granted even though we just had a 25 year playoff win drought) is a terrible idea. McD has at least another season to show what we can do, and when he is hear next season and we are at the top of the division again, I wont be surprised

Cinci - Probably similar tier to the Bills next year Chiefs - Probably similar tier to the Bills next year Chargers - No signs they are a better team, and they are in a tougher divisino Jacksonville - Lawrence is hype hype hype, but still needs to take another step for that team to get close to the Bills Jets, if they get Lamar - If and buts - and this is a HUGE if Baltimore if they keep Lamar - Ifs and buts miami if Tua is healthy - Ifs and buts - and we really have no idea what Tua will be like moving forward So if we assume the worst, bad things will happen? Surprising... Its very likely the Bills are a division winner AGAIN, with a 13-4/12-5 type record. They are still a VERY good team. Remember when the Chiefs were going to take a step back this year because they lost Hill, and their division brought in all of this talent? Let's not overreact to a loss against the reigning AFC Champs.

Terrible idea. We need top end draft capital for the field, not to replace a great head coach with another great one

Firing a top 8 coach in the league is absolutely a bad idea. Dorsey was a first year coordinator, who has shown instances of really solid play calling and creativity. Frazier is who I have a greater concern with. His scheme requires REALLY solid execution and timing. It all predicates on a 4 man pass rush that can get to the QB. The top QBs in our conference (Burrow and Mahomes), are able to exploit this style by either getting the ball out quickly (Burrow) or extending plays (Mahomes). We need to take a hard look at the defensive style and see where we can adjust. This team relies on Allen on offense, but let's be clear, I dont know of a harder season for a team in the last decade. Multiple key injuries to their top players, moving home games due to weather, Hamlin's situation. They were gassed in all phases. I think the team comes out next year refreshed, and we see more of what we saw at the beginning of the season.

I’ll be interested to see how Beane handles FA and the draft

What comparable situation has there been to seeing your teammate dead on the field and being brought back to life that has been used as motivation?

Team was outclassed in the trenches. That’s your #1 issue. No solid #2 is your second

Can you blame them after the Hamlin situation? I’d be emotionless too

Not him specifically, his team. Once Miami bought into their hype at 3-0, they decided they had to play Tua after the Bills game to keep pace as the division leader. Then Tua gets a second concussion, and never really recovered

Bills do not take teams lightly. McD has been consistent in getting this team ready week to week. Really comes down to Allen's turnover struggles. Can we keep the ball and get points on the board

I expect Miami to come out really strong in the 1st quarter. Lots of run and play action, try to bully the dline. Will be important to try to get stops early. Let Allen get the offense up by 10 by half, and then force Skylar Thompson to throw against our coverage. If we execute, there is not reason why we dont win this game by double digits. If we turn the ball over, or drops force punts, we may see a closer game then we all want.

Feel bad for Tua - guy has been nothing but nice and mature in his career, and he has been derailed by early season hype and poor medical support. Guy is a decent QB when healthy. I expect the line to move to Bills -15 or HIGHER. Hopefully we win this game and keep injury free as we move to divisional. What we have seen from the Bills over the years - they FEAST on below average QBs. Their defense is great at making QB's play well and make good throws consistently. I expect Skyler to struggle

Thing with Miami, they also had the leverage of a brand new offensively minded head coach and new weapons. I’m not surprised that as the year has gone on, teams are keying in on their offense. Let them run, maybe you give up a big play, but that team struggles to OWN the time of possession and paper cut teams to victory. I predicted 10-7 for Miami at the beginning of the year, looking like I was right on the money

Because I have faith that he could be a serviceable backup with upside. And if he were to get cut, giving him a 2 year deal wouldn’t be the worst thing on the planet. id prefer to have Wilson as the backup with upside compared to Keenum

Bills should bring him in to backup.

Fields isn't nearly the passer Lamar is in the Ravens offense, and we have shown an ability to stop Lamar when needed. Not to mention, the Bears defense is MUCH worse then the Ravens. Any given Sunday.... but I think the Bills win by 14+
