I've never seen one man carry round such an average roster of footballs players for 20 games like he did... its about time.
-
Meh, at the beginning of the season I said this team will go as far as the level of McDermott's incompetence, so the outcome was in line with expectations. Well likely upgrade some skill positions in the offseason, but at the end of the day, the Chiefs are more dynamic and just game plan better. I'll expect the same result next year because what holds us back likely wont change.

McDermott is the Coach, I always maintain this teams ceiling is capped by his limitations. So i keep expectations low. I thought this year may be different, Josh's year was exceptional in that he did run over people, and he protected the ball... However, it was mini-rebuild year, so kept my expectations low. I assume McDermott is safe, so I guess its on Beane to find 2-3 difference makers for next year. Disappointed, of course. Winning the Divvy and being in the AFCCG with arguable worse roster, impressive.

How many years left on the “run”

Elway finally won at 37/38 years of age, when he wasn't asked to do it all. Sounds like a guy we know. -

I don't think many of us expected that we'd win the East. Frankly, I was shocked we beat Baltimore. Had Kincaid not been "broken I guess" and made that catch, we might be in the show. I fully expect this team to be better next season. Again, I still think McDermott is holding this team back in the end, but he did a great job getting to last night. Hard to hate for losing to the maybe soon to be 3 peat champs.... -
What are you doing to get out of this funk?

went out in the garage played basketball with my GF's eight year old son yesterday toward the back half of the second quarter. He laughed the whole time, he loves it. I don't regret missing football for moments like that. Its entertainment, and its a game. in the end, it wont make any difference in your life in any tangible way. -

Meh, I was skiing yesterday, and was fine with seeing the game, or not seeing the game. I got home late and watched, and it felt like Deja Vu. I'm going skiing again two Sundays. I love the Bills, but they're not going to be much different next season, because McDermott will be here again. Look, we used to watch meaningless football in November most seasons. Now we watch in amazement as we lose to the perhaps the best Coach/ Franchise to ever play this game, when maybe a Kincaid clutch catch breaks their backs. Its really exciting, even if we usually lose. The Bills, are a broken record, until something changes, I expect that records to continue to spin around... -
hmmm. neither of those. Kincaid and Coleman being non factors, Cooper not being on the field much, Miller being a ghost, KC being better coached, Elam being on this roster still, McDermott looking ambivalent. Not hating on the Mahommes, to the winners go the spoils. Josh would be unhinged successful if he wore Red and Yellow, plain and simple.
-
Just out of curiosity, what output did Kincaid and Coleman have on the evening? Worthy had a clutch contested grab and seems like a pretty impactful game... I'm willing to guess the Bills duo delivered very little. We just seem to get so little from out skill position, outside of Cook. The body of evidence is mounting, while 2 years ago you give him the BOTD. Make a change, with Allen the Bills are a playoffs team no matter who coaches. Who coordinates a nasty and violent defense these days?

A 3rd consecutive Divisional Round home loss? No chance

This team beat the 2 #1 seeds in the playoffs, and played Baltimore on the road with a bunch of guys out. There is no reason they can't win, just have to line up an execute. Find a way. -
Feels a lot like the Bills in Houston oh so many years ago, just got to get that monkey off your back.

The Broncos beat marginal to bad teams and slipped into the playoffs because the Chiefs showed up in name only. Hard to for any defense to have zero big game experience, and run into a Bills team that was both brutal and finesse in the same offensive scheme. The Broncos offense put that defense in a lose-lose... and JA and the boys were just on. hard to fault the guy for that showing.
