Divisional Playoffs - Chiefs at Bills - Post game thread
finn replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Agree. Plus, if Allen had connected on that TD throw, not one person--I mean that literally, like even some weird fan in his basement in Peoria--would think, "Wow, he took a real risk there. Definitely should have thrown to Diggs on the crosser. What a bad decision maker!" The fact is, Allen played pretty much any quarterback in history could have played, given what he had to work with. He was patient, accurate, smart, resourceful, and he used all his gifts, just like in the 13-second game. The team around him just wasn't good enough, again. Did anyone else shine besides Shakir? -

The skewed narratives have already begun. NFL.com says Allen was "far from perfect" in the game and "misfired several times downfield" when the game was on the line. The writer emphasizes his longest completion was 15 yards and implies it was his fault. No mention of the receiver drops, the choke play of Diggs, the fact that he played his heart out, leading the team in rushing, patiently taking what the defense gave him, hitting clutch pass after clutch pass, and driving the Bills into field goal range to tie the game. All we're going to hear this offseason is how Allen can't win the big one, that he's a turnover machine, and the Chiefs own him. Going to be a long time until September. -
Between Diggs and Miller, that's more than a $40 million investment. Both were non-factors in the biggest game of the year. Or net negatives since they kept more effective players on the bench.

I came to post the same. Diggs is nothing more than a very expensive possession receiver at this point. Shakir may be special, but he should be a terrific third receiver at least. Set at TE. So you need at least one big-time receiver. In hindsight, Beane's failure to sign Hopkins sank the season. You had the best QB in the league and , outside of Shakir and Kincaid, you made him throw to bunch of street free agents and washed-up chokers.

Diggs choked. Bass choked. Sherfield choked. -

Brady needs to adjust. The swing passes and runs up the middle are no longer working. Slants, reverses...anything but the same thing. -

The pass rush hasn't gotten remotely close to Mahomes all game. -

Exactly. You have one player on this team who is a champion. ONE. Go for fourth down if you want, but give it to Damar Hamlin with the game on the line? -

Please, not another incredible game by Allen wasted by a lame defensive effort. That would be just wrong. -

I don't think it's Mahomes or even this offense. Any team could drive on this defense, with their injuries and the way they're playing. I don't think I've ever seen a worse defensive effort in all these years watching football. I mean, this is epic. They're not only scoring every drive, they're scoring quickly every drive. The only silver lining are the two field goals, which happened before Reid adjusted to McDermott's duct-tape defense. -

Could this be the ONE time the defense stops the Chiefs? Doesn't seem that much to ask. -

Not having that timeout is going to hurt later in a game this close. -

The Bills defense being embarrassed in front of a national audience. McDermott almost literally could not be doing a worse job. If he's going to let them score, at least blitz him just in case they sack Mahomes once in a while. -

finn replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah, they look as bad as they ever have. No pass rush or coverage downfield. It's not even Mahomes playing particularly great; they look like they couldn't stop a high school quarterback. If they're going to just lie down, maybe they should take some risks, jump routes, go for the turnover. -

I'm still mad at Sherfield. Does Allen need to catch it for him, too? -

It's like pitch and catch with Mahomes and Kelce, just like every year. We must be missing something because Kelce is just wide, wide open every time. Is he that good against the zone? Does McDermott not want to bother with him? -

Maybe they figure he'll fall by himself if they give him plenty of space.
