Ravens chose to double team him often, for example, this play where he got the attention of two Ravens defenders and freed up Diggs: Beasley was open in quite a few plays but Allen either didn't see him or decided not to throw his way. For example, in the play below, Beasley was wide open and would have an easy touchdown if Allen could make the throw. Consider Allen threw to Diggs in the same direction in the end, it's probably Allen decided not to throw to Beasley due to how the wind affected his long throw during the game. If so, I think it's a good decision to make the safe throw to Diggs. But Beasley did get open in Ravens game when not double teamed. 2 1 2

I was searching "Bills Fan reaction"; most results related to Red's miracle. I love (a) how she mimics ref signals, maybe unconsciously; (b) dad bumps/fives; (c) her phrase "you can keeek" when Bills get a stop. Slays me. Finally, the work and creativity to cleanly edit 3.5h of tape to circa 15m... amazing. See @K-9 comments, p 60, for more about her. A "hidden" gem, she be. 1
zow2 Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 I'm too lazy to search, anyone have the KC injury report?
Bills_Canada Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 If Mahomes plays, the bills should play an ultra aggressive style on 4th down and go for it wayyy more often than they normally would. 4th and 4 from their own 30? Go for it. I know this is way outside what the analytics say to do in a standard game, but the reason is simple. The chiefs offense are far from a standard offense. It makes way wayyyy more sense to pull a strategy like this if the opposing offense is gonna score touchdowns on a high % of their drives, regardless where they start the drive from. Which the Chiefs are very very likely to do. So we should give ourselves max chance of putting points on the board, and not worry about what kind of field position we're giving them, since it doesn't matter that much vs an offense this potent. You could argue that they should implement the same strategy vs us. 1
Straight Hucklebuck Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 I didn't think Davis' injury was serious, but I am questioning whether he plays now.

My other theory on 4th downs though is don't try to string a few together on the same drive if the game is still relatively close. If you convert a 4th and 3 on the opponents 30...great. If it comes down to 4th and 3 on the opponents 23 a few plays later, kick the FG (unless it's late in the game and you HAVE to go for it).
Straight Hucklebuck Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 McDermott is done talking to the media for the week isn't he? Just a Monday and Wednesday press conference. So other than Friday's practice report and practice squad call-ups, there will be no further updates.

zow2 Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Mahomes is playing for sure. Maybe he will favor the foot a little bit but his arm and brain will be fine. I like the Bills chances but they really have a lot to overcome here. It's not talked about much...but this is KC's third straight AFC Championship game. They're not going to be nervous or tight. Our guys? I don't know, they've never been here.
Special K Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Heard a cool stat: The four remaining playoff teams are first, second, third, and fifth in passing offense. I guess having a QB who is a competent passer is kind of important.....right Ravens and Lamar Jackson fans?? 2
