If the shoe was on the other foot, I have my doubts the offense could get 2 first downs to ice the game considering they just went 5 and out needing at the very least a FG to tie. Seems they like the drama.

The guys who are first read QBs - Tua, Purdy - have such limitations that they HAVE to know where to go with the ball immediately after the snap. I bet you both could read a defense better than Allen pre-snap, but it’s because they have to. They’re physically limited in many ways. Mahomes likes to hold the ball as well, although we didn’t see much of that Sunday. The secondary was so loose that whoever he looked at was open immediately.

What would it take to pry Micah Parsons away from Dallas? They paid Dak and Lamb crazy money, do they have enough for him too? Anyone have their salary cap numbers?

Von only played 20% of the snaps against the Chiefs?? Yeah, no way will he be back at that salary.

Just saw a replay of the Worthy non-catch. I hadn’t realized the RT hooked and tackled Smoot to the ground as he got around him. But they call the hold on Hamlin. At the very least it should’ve been offsetting penalties because that was a sack.

I think “greatest defensive coordinator of all time” is between him and Belichick. Probably a distant gap to the third guy.

What I would love to see… would LOVE to see in the SB: the Eagles are driving on KC late, they’re on the KC 35 with under a minute left in the 4th. Score tied 30-30, it’s 3rd and long. Hurts drops back and throws… but misses his WR. Chiefs are going to get the ball back with time left on the clock. BUT WAIT A MINUTE… there’s a ticky tack flag on KC’s Watson for tugging on a WR’s jersey. 5 yard penalty, automatic first down. Eagles run the clock down to :02 and kick the game winning FG. Guess how many Chiefs fans would be up in arms over that call? We could simply remind them the exact same scenario played out to gift them a SB win 2 seasons ago. Oh, how I’d love that.

I wish Allen would’ve tossed it to him as he ran in, not the guy who had it marked short. Everything that could go wrong on those two plays, did.

What I also don’t understand is why didn’t Kincaid take it to the outside of Shakir? He would’ve gotten it much easier versus cutting up to the inside. But as Kevin Wildes said earlier: call a better play. Be better. Still, referee incompetence stings.

I’ve been seeing a certain photo circulating social media that tries to disprove that Allen got the first. They took an early frame where you could see the ball was short and used that as evidence, never mind the fact that his momentum had not come to a stop. Just found a funny video that shows us what we already knew: both the 3rd and the 4th downs were spotted short. Such a crucial drive where any points could’ve meant the world for the guys in blue and red. First Down, Buffalo

Anyone know when the end of year presser will be?

In fairness, how do you know we didn’t? I guess if you’re arguing from the defensive side, I would agree, but offensively we did score 4 TDs and a FG, same as KC.

Mahomes has a little something extra that I can’t qualify or quantify. He’s the most clutch QB I ever remember playing, even more so than Brady. If you needed a drive to end with a TD and your literal life depended on it, I would choose Mahomes to get it done. Our guy is great and has been let down by his teammates, but still I can’t ignore how that side of the ball hasn’t been able to capitalize on their opportunity to take the lead aside from the :13 game. And we all know who the other QB was that drove 45 yards in 9 seconds (yes, the Bills defense made it easy on him).

The position would be beneath him. Offensive and defensive quality control coaches are akin to interns learning the ins and outs of their new prospective job. They work very hard for very little, they’re the lowest positions on the staff.

Wish he had gone to the Bears.

Kincaid will be fine, he’ll be going home with his millions and maybe a smoking hot chick on his arm, while “all y’all will be going back to your little jobs.”

I thought he was nervous at the start, even Romo said his play was likely due to nerves. Once he settled in he was money, unfortunately against a team like the Chiefs, he needed to come out guns blazing, surgical. He wasn’t at his best the whole game, but his play was good enough to win. We needed the defense and others around him to raise their level, but stop me if you’ve heard this before.

Mike Gesicki would’ve made that catch and we wouldn’t have had to sacrifice a 1st and a 4th to have him on the team.

Watching the sideline fall apart after Kincaid’s 4th down drop was tough. They just knew he had the catch.

Von had a nice spin move on one play, but that’s about all I remember.

Tiny crowd, but bigger than I expected 😅

I’ll base it on how KC performs, since both teams are similar, but I think it would’ve been a close, hard fought game with the Bills prevailing. Eagles aren’t better than the Ravens. Actually wouldn’t have mind losing to the Ravens if we were just going to lose to the Chiefs again. Next year is a long way away, sigh.

Desperation will always bite you. Off the top of my head, CBs to go after Elam were Kyle Gordon (2nd), Cam Taylor-Britt (2nd), Deron Bland (4th), Tyrique Woolen (5th), and Jaylen Watson (7th). McDuffie wasn’t the last good CB. Bet there’s more I’m missing too.

I still haven’t forgiven Beane for taking Cody freakin Ford over DK Metcalf 😂

You can see why Spags blitzes are so effective. Seven players on the LoS, Josh thought the blitzer was coming from his left and two came from the right. Protection was slid the wrong way, Edwards didn’t even have anyone to block. Well schemed. I wonder if we ran an aggressively creative scheme like it, could we stop Mahomes like Spags stopped Brady?
