    Nailed it. Just didn’t expect HOU Josh to show up at all.

     

    What reminded me of the Houston game was the odd behavior of the refs. Taking away a TD from us because the Houston guy didn't know the rules. And in this game, one ref running in marking short and one running in marking long.  A go to commercial review and then saying he was short.  No measurement.

    There was a shot of him coming off the field on a time out and I said “oh 💩 that’s glassy eyed Josh, he’s not the one we need to win this.” He wears his heart on his sleeve so you can easily tell which Josh is in-game.

     

    In the 1st quarter my wife states, "Ought Oh, Josh has the deer in the headlight look.". He did.

    They set it up for most important moment of the game,  the question is why does McDermott learn from this moment and do the same

     

    Maybe he did when we sacked Kermit on 3rd and long before they kicked the go ahead FG?

    I would say not running in the first half was a coaching choke.

     

    I would say on the last drive or 2 when Spags was totally sagged in to stop the run and we didn't go to play action for some throws downfield was a coaching choke.

    I don’t understand what game some of you were watching.

     

    Outside of the first drive, Allen was great. 

     

    The deep touchdown to Hollins was on a rope, the fourth down TD had to be peppered past two layers of defenders, and he bought time repeatedly. 

     

    He was 68% passing with 270+ yards and 2 TD’s after the first drive.

     

    Go sleep the alcohol off, you’re drunk.

     

    QBs job is to win the game.  It was there for the taking and he/we didn't take it.  That 1st 3 and out along with the resulting KC TD put us down 7. We lost by 7.

    Honestly outside of the running game and wide out screens I am not sure what Brady is really scheming up.  Onto next season I guess.

     

    I thought all game he was setting up the play action bomb.  KC was totally sagged in to stop the run but we never went to it.

    Not without a ring he isn't. That's just how QBs are viewed. Nevermind that his presence alone gives the Bills probably an extra 8 or 9 wins a year and his insane numbers and plays....without a ring it won't matter.

    I was SO ready to write a massive apology post to Mack if we pulled this one out.

     

    I said all offseason my biggest fear was Mack playing WR in the AFCCG against the Chiefs, little did I know he was gonna be our BEST WR in that scenario. Still not good enough but it was like a perfect ending to the narrative.

     

    Brutal.

     

    I'm also taking back all the bad things I said about Mack after that game where he couldn't find the football on a long pass over his shoulder and another dropped pass that game.

    Of the five "branches" of the tree, three are sourced from offense and Seifert and Rhodes are sourced from defense. And what they both ran were 4-3 schemes that played zone coverage on early downs and then lots of heavy nickel and dime on 3rd down. I think that is pretty influential on the defenses you see in the league today. It was the basis of the 4-3 under Pete Carroll won a Superbowl with in Seattle and heavily influences a lot of the schemes you see. There is more variance on D than on O though, because there is still a strong 3-4 contingent of defensive coordinators around. 

     

    Oh, so now Bill Walsh gets credit for the 4-3 defense?  The 4-3 defense was invented by Tom Landry in 1956 and everyone else (including Walsh) followed.

     

    Quote

    In 1956, Landry became the first defensive coordinator to switch to the 4–3 as a base defense. As the 1956 Giants won the NFL Championship, this gave the 4–3 enormous exposure, and just about the whole NFL converted to the new system the following season.

    Does “worst” include a U.S. military veteran?

     


    They shouldn’t be! 

     

    In some cases yes. Charles Whitman and Timothy McVey were both military veterans.  And, not all military veterans are citizens.  I served with some in the Marines in the late 1970s so it's not a new phenomenon either.  I kindof think if a non citizen completes their enlistment with an honorable discharge should be awarded citizenship but that's not the case.  Would be a great recruitment tool.

     

    So I would really need more info on this military veteran which is not given before knowing if an injustice has been done.

    Bmore is also alright. Their worst fans and our worst fans are not representative of their fanbases. I went to the Ravens game earlier in the year and the fans we encountered before and after were great. I like them a helluva lot better than KC, Cinci etc.

     

    And they have a cool band that was formerly the Baltimore Colts Band which they kept active when the Colts moved out in the middle of the night and are now the Ravens Band. Very cool IMHO.

    I joked about it earlier in this thread, but the Bills need to find the "chip on their shoulder" this week.

    You and I and everyone else can find the notion of needing extra motivation in such a big game silly. But we saw, and had it confirmed by multiple players, how impactful the media all picking the Ravens, the Jerry Coleman comments, etc was for the Bills players. Allen mentioned it right after the game. Just about every pro athlete is motivated by perceived disrespect, and our team seems ESPECIALLY motivated by it. They THRIVE as underdogs. You and I can think that's silly, but that's the reality.

    Meanwhile, you have Andy Reid saying to the press yesterday "I presume the Bills will be favored, but that's okay, we'll do what we do". He's already planting the seeds in his players' minds that THEY'RE the underdogs. Nevermind that they were a one loss one-seed. I GUARANTEE that they'll be painting themselves as the underdogs all week in their locker room. 

     

    So I hope the media doubts the Bills loudly and repeatedly all week, harps on how Josh CAN'T beat Mahomes in the playoffs, etc. 

    The Bills need to find their chip for this week. 
     

     

    Yeah, jocks really eat up the whole " they said we couldn't do it " thing.

    Someone missed a PAT?  Now I'm really confused.

     

    It was the Eagles kicker I think I was thinking about.  It was a long day of football. It was late. I was a coupla bong hits in.  Forgive me please for my football misrepresentation of facts not in evidence.

     

    The better team does not find themselves down by 2 after a 3rd Q TD, panic, and go for 2 and not get it.

    It was garbage by the coaching staff.

     

    The Bills had a chance to take an 18 point lead but the coaching staff played conservative ball all second half. The Bills won today, IMO, in spite of their coaching staff hamstringing the team.

     

    You have a chance to drive a stake through Dracula’s heart in the playoffs you better damned well do it.

     

    I believe if I'm not mistaken, Dracula is flat on his back with a stake in his heart on a 747 headed back to Baltimore.

    So does this mean we could challenge it or not? Kind of sounds like not but I am not a lawyer.
