And it's based on mutual respect - not being 'buddies'. McD is maintaning a hard edge respect from players while evolving to loosen up a bit and let them be themselves and have some fun

Think you nailed it - one of McDs best traits imo has been walking that line between having the respect of players while not being their "buddy", but still letting the players be themselves. Josh has been asked multiple times about McD recently and he has mentioned how both him and McD have evolved together - him as a QB and McD as a caoach. While McD used to be more micro-managing and regimented he has evolved to be bit looser while still having a firm control of the team, and letting the players have fun and show their personality. "Be You With Us". The snow angel thing is so indicative to me of him trying to 'let his hair' down even though it is so out of character with how tightly he is wired. It really seems like it is something he has really focused on to work on himself.

Was thinking today how cool it would be to unveil a hurry-up offense at some point in the playoffs - get a personnel match-up you like and just go into hurry up and attack it without the defense being able to substitute

You and I know that - and many knowledgable people in the media - my concern is more the voters who might jump on an alternative vote

Don't know why I care so much about this - and all the Saquon MVP talk in the media last few weeks is stressing me out. I'm afraid if there's an opening some voters will try to be cute and vote the 'non-traditional non-QB' vote. Need Saquon to have a couple dud games - hopefully there will be a couple teams that can shut him down

There was a point in the game where the Bills had the ball and they showed Brady in the booth and he looked like he was just casually watching the game - not looking at play sheet or anything at all

Anyone else hold their breath when Terry was marched to the middle of the room and what he would say 😛 He acquitted himself well

The rest of that thread has some good points as well - like belief Buffalo doesn't have high end talent is even more of an endorsement for Josh MVP (also the response to 'I'll look forward to the Bills demise in January': 'I'll look backwards to the Dolphins demise in November' 😛 ). The one comment that in 3 playoff games with KC The Bills defense has 5 stops total is a crazy stat if true

And then there will be a late flag giving Chiefs a 1st down

Love watching those Rams and Charger games at Sofi with the home team having to do a silent count on offense

Low key - people can hate McD but the balanced offense being able to pound the ball in bad weather is what he has been trying to build for a while - will likely pay dividends come playoff time

I said in the game thread its crazy how Josh took over the MVP lead by having such a memorable performance in such a crazy bad weather game. Who else can do that.

Wtf - he turned him then pancaked him

And a sack and tackle for loss

Is collinsworth drunk

Lou Piccone with the fumble recovery!

Crazy Josh grabbed hold of MVP lead in this crazy weather game. Screw Saquon

Refs seeing ghosts

So does it count as two TDs - a throwing TD and a catching TD?

Even in this crappy weather game Josh has stood out as MVP worthy

Coop with the assist

MVP!!!!!

So nice to see someone down a punt by the goal line and not have siran neal or Taiwan Jones flub it into the ez

Crazy tirico and collinsworth calling the 49ers season over at the start of the 2nd half
