Cheering for them? Yes. Having the slightest expectation they will do anything special? Nope.

 

Getting the 2 seed from 6-6 was pretty special

Allen got greedy at the exact wrong time but the play was there to be made - Jones just got the best of his man and affected the throw.

 

Special teams under McD have been a complete clown show.  Keeping Martin this week was ludicrous and I suspect it was done in large part to try not to disrupt Bass’s fragile psyche by switching out his holder.  Bass needs to go take Ayahuasca with Rodgers this offseason, his brain is scrambled up and he’s useless.  Which I just have no sympathy for given what I’ve been through as a fan of this team.

 

Speaking of which - Diggs had zero interest in this game.  Bookended his garbage performance by fumbling on the very first play and then casually dropping a perfectly-thrown bomb on the penultimate drive.  Not sure what happened to him mentally but he seemed to have completely checked out and I suspect we will soon be subjected to his passive-aggressive tweets and such as he starts angling for his next adventure.

 

Finally - this game was proof positive that investing more heavily on defense is a fool’s errand.  Beane gave his star QB zero playmakers this offseason.  Wasting the career of JA17 is a war crime and Beane should be on a short leash heading into 2024.

 

Brutal way to end the season but they gave themselves no margin for error, all year and again today.  They had to be perfect for too many games in a row and today they came up short.

Wide open post route ain’t exactly greed… y’all are talkin like he rifled it into tight coverage haha if he checked it down to diggs and we got held out of the end zone still(probable), we’d all be complaining he didn’t attempt that wide open td throw

I said it 3 years ago and it still stands- Josh will go down in history as the greatest QB to never win a superbowl…

 

He has all the physical skill in the world, but it’s his decision making that is hit or miss…All the greats have it, but Allen just seems to come up a little short in that area…

 

I still love him, but it is what it is…Go Bills…👍

You’re blaming Josh for a game in which he was literally a one man offense again do blame him for the ball go threw Diggs and Sherfields hands too?

But did you really ever think we'd win the game?

 

Gosh - as I sat there and watched, paced around and watched, cheered and groaned... I just couldn't help but think we can't pull this off. Either we won't be able to stop Mahomes (just have never done it in the playoffs and certainly not today), or the Bills will shoot themselves in the foot.

 

Of course I remained hopeful, but season after season of watching the same script - you just had to know it would end the same way.

 

2020: 6 straight wins to end the season, lose to Chiefs in the Playoffs

2021: 4 straight wins to end the season, lose to Chiefs in the Playoffs

2022: 7 straight wins to end the season (1 no contest Bengals game), lose to Bengals in the Playoffs

2023: 5 straight wins to end the season, lose to Chiefs in the Playoffs

 

Same script every year.

I actually think the game turned when Spags made adjustments and the Bills didn’t for those two series. Before that they couldn’t stop Buffalo but they started run blitzing and coming down hard and we needed to be going PA. Those 3 series cost is. We only scored 7 points in the 2nd half

 

The best coaches, like good chess players, think several moves ahead.

 

Bills have routinely been late to adjust under McD, especially in the big games.

The bottom line is there is a reason that the Kansas City Chiefs are Super Bowl champions and the Buffalo Bills are contenders but not championship level

good enough. Bills fans have to get it out of their heads that the Buffalo weather is going to get the Bills anywhere the Chiefs just beat us in our home stadium with the wind and the Buffalo weather because they are champions that is what champions do. Champions don’t need to rely on weather and tricks they just go out and beat you regardless of the adversity that you face during the season. Because the bottom line the Super Bowl isn’t hosted in Buffalo. The Bills flat out aren’t good enough compared to the Chiefs. Congratulations to the Kansas City Chiefs and for my Bills maybe next year in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

Diggs can go.  I think a large part of the early season issues were his antics and trying to force him the ball.  
 

Take a look at KC and bagging Hill.  They are doing just fine it seems 

 

We need to do ALL offense in the draft and allow FA to focus on D.  
 

take a few losses in the beginning but build a young aggressive team. 
 

not 100% on Brady but he’s light years ahead of what we’ve had. A year of his own playbook might be good.  
 

after where we were I’m happy but still gutted from this loss to KC.   Unless some lingering issue Bass needs to go-he was abysmal this year.

Might not be a popular take but I am proud of how the team got up off the mat after we were 6-6 and it looked like we might not even make the playoffs.  Still sucks, and, I know, it's championship or bust, but, I can at least look back on that with some happiness.

Another time. Not tonight. Read the room.

Josh missed the wide open crosser to Diggs on 2nd and 9 on the last drive. If he hits that, I think we end up winning that game. Other than that, Josh was elite tonight 

 

He went for a TD and would have got it without Jones hitting him as he threw.  Can't really complain about that one.

The defense was disappointing overall.  KC's offense was significantly weaker this season compared to previous seasons, but they probably had their best game against our defense, which is a poor reflection on our defense.  I get it that we had injuries, but our inability to stop KC's rushing attack was surprising.  Our d-line had a bad game, which is particularly frustrating given the resources that have been devoted to that group in terms of draft picks and free agents.

bills have some ballers in cook, kincaid, and khalil. the oline is essentially fixed.

 

time to ditch diggs and davis. and find a top new two.

 

get higgins this offseason.

The last plays were a head scratcher for sure, they were playing to clock it all game then decide for the big hitter. I'd have love a chance at Ravens but I think we all know that was going to be a miracle to win stopping that run offense with those putrid LB's.

I didn’t really see that here…their c tier wrs made multiple huge plays, ours (and diggs) did not.

WHAT?  How?  Suddenly our D can stop the Chiefs even though they couldnt all game?  What makes you think they dont just get a touchdown probably at will?  Josh went toe-to-toe with Mahommes and almost won again despite having an offense that is not even near the same caliber and coaching that is not in the same stratosphere.

In the end Brady  wasn’t up to it either.
