KC ran a quick pass game. Pass rush wouldn’t have made a difference, especially since Elam was playing so far off receivers. They would’ve had to overwhelm the O-line with 7 or 8 rushers.

It’ll be interesting to see the development of Solomon. They say the biggest jump is usually from year 1 to year 2. He was great in college, even though it wasn’t against top competition.

I was thinking the same thing so I’ll credit you 50 cents.

Kurt Warner breaks down the 4th down. Allen error?
BobbyC81 replied to Buffalo_Stampede's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah, it looks like he wouldn’t have even had to dive for it if he tracked the ball correctly. Who was that other Bill in the area, Hollins? He was running hard and may have had it but Kincaid got in his way. -
Some thoughts on why we can't get over the hump
BobbyC81 replied to Mikie2times's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yes, this is similar to the Levy 90’s teams that couldn’t win a Super Bowl in 4 straight years. In the 4th one, a Thurman fumble returned for a TD that only TIED the game, deflated the whole team in “here we go again” state and the game was essentially over. -
Just some thoughts before I log off for a while...
BobbyC81 replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall
And in this game, the Chiefs were throwing quick passes. There wasn’t enough time to get to Mahomes on most of them. That’s why you have to blitz in order to overwhelm the O-line but you then have to get there. -

And right before the play, Romo talks about it and says he thinks Spaga was going to send the blitzers. He has better instincts than our coaches. -
The whole organization is to blame for Elam being picked on today, hurting the Bills pass defense. First of all, since the Bills play heavy zone coverage, they used a 1st round pick on Elam, known for man coverage. Of course it initially sounds like trying to put a square peg in a round hole but they must’ve felt his talent could help him make the transition. It didn’t work in Year 1 and he was beaten out for the starting CB position by Benford, the 7th round pick of the same draft. The organization must have thought Elam could develop as they’ve kept him on the roster for now 3 seasons. However, he has spent most games as an inactive. Go into this season and this game and Elam is the 3rd CB? They should’ve been better prepared since Benford had been in concussion protocol. Correct me if I’m wrong, but the NFL seems to be loose with their roster rules as teams seem to add players to their roster during the playoffs. Yes, I can already hear the comments about bringing in a street free agent and expecting him to do any better with no familiarity of the system. We all saw Elam out there today and he was not good. I’ve seen Cam Lewis make more plays so I don’t know why he was not inserted into the lineup to replace Benford.

I have long been on the side of “you don’t dump a coach that wins division titles” but I am finally leaning the other way. There is precedent of course. Chuck Knox won division titles for the Rams but failed in the playoffs and was dumped. Marty Schottenheimer had regular season success at his stints in Cleveland, San Diego and puke KC, but failed in the playoffs. Reid also had regular season success in Philly but couldn’t get the Eagles over the hump so he was let go. Pegula needs to ask himself if he’s satisfied with just winning division titles or does he want to get to the Super Bowl. Hopefully it’s the latter and he doubts Sean can get them there. I no longer believe McDermott can do it.

I have watched every Super Bowl starting with #4. In my book, it’ll count to keep my streak going if I watch the opening kickoff and then turn it off.

Is the AFC Championship the "actual" Super Bowl??
BobbyC81 replied to Special K's topic in The Stadium Wall
Like the Ravens, the Eagles are a very physical team, especially their lines. -
I just hope, after the smart strategy of having Milano shadowing Lamar, they double team Kelce. The sight of Kelce running open between 2 defenders in the ‘13 seconds’ game will haunt me til my dying day.

College football championship. Notre Dame/Ohio State
BobbyC81 replied to Steptide's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah, it was MLK day with a lot of NBA basketball, the Sabres were playing, inauguration day and then it was like “oh yeah, the CFB Championship game is today” -
Yeah, on the flipside, that’s like when someone like Barkley has a huge yardage day with a long TD, there’s always someone who’ll say “Yeah, but if you take away that 70 yard run, he only had 80 yards on his other 20 carries, which is only a 4 yard average.”

Why can't the eye in the sky just be the eighth official on the field?

So, as they said at the time of his signing, just brought in to help with practices and provide wisdom.

The national media narrative since the Bills won
BobbyC81 replied to ChronicAndKnuckles's topic in The Stadium Wall
Some of them will still say the other team should’ve won. The media is also overdoing it regarding Andrews’ “dropping “ the 2 pt conversion pass. His foot slipped on the frozen tundra. He was lucky to have almost caught it.
