Allen was legendary (even better than 13 seconds Allen)

the throw into the end zone is the right call, but protection didn't hold. that is a high percentage pass for allen. shouldn't have run the ball on first down there. and several other plays leading up to that. 

I lost track at how many times Cook got stopped on 1st down.  Is Brady allergic to the play action?

You're a troll and only a blind bat wouldn't see it.  There is no point in even replying to your points as they're not made in good faith or in the spirit of an open & honest discussion.  And please with the "he is not immune from criticism" crap about Allen.

 

I hate the idea of putting trolling posters on "ignore" as it's like having to shut your blinds because the neighbor is running around naked down the street.

 

 

I don’t care if you ignore me. 
 

Im sorry you have a difficult time reading about Josh Allen being stupid sometimes.

and what's lost in these short passes is some of the ridiculous ***** he did on some of them. Like I said on the postgame thread I was gutted because Josh played better and meant it. Josh had to work his ass off to do what he did, and it felt like Mahomes was just like oh it's nice that this defense is crippled this game for almost the entire game.

Sherfield and Diggs both whiffed on what would have been truly sensational plays.

 

But then they've been doing that all year, so what else did we expect?

 

Feed them all to the pit, I say!

Feel free to add Cook's easy dropped td at the 3.  Cook has absolute stone hands.

Hard to step into the throw when your left tackled is being pushed into you.

Brady called a terrible 2nd half.

 

Disagree with this. I thought Brady called a perfect game plan. It is hard for an offense to function without a single outside WR playing at even an average level. Brady took the only possible path of feeding the RBs and leaning on Josh's legs. There is only so much you can do when you're forced into that game script, but he maximized it as best he could.

He stuck with the run a bit too long. Spags run blitzes were a perfect counter. He also didn't dial anything up to challenge the missing safeties and Gay. 

 

It's almost impossible to win without getting the ball downfield.

He didn’t miss. He got hit as he threw it.

Allen unnecessarily went into hero ball mode. 
 

More than anything else, I think that is why we lost. 

Throwing to a wide open receiver from the pocket is absolutely not hero ball lol id argue the odds of a win attempting that pass were significantly higher than if he takes the check down to diggs there…chiefs weren’t giving an inch 

 

dawkins had to hold up like 0.1 seconds longer

This was just the 3rd time this year the Chiefs allowed over 21 points (and the only such game that they won). Allen made that happen while basically playing without outside WRs. Think about that.

So you'd put this game more on him than the Defense that our Defensive coach manages?

The broadcast angle didn’t show this play accurately…it was a heck of an attempt given the circumstances.  Dawkins holds up for a split second longer and there’s a good chance we win

Yeah you know what the defense does after getting run on all of the first half, they creep up, and that's when you hit them deep to both capitalize on it and make them honest.

KC adjusted at half and were very aggressive on first downs, attacking the run. Brady didn't react. Lot of bad first down plays in the 2nd half. We scored 7 points in the half and Josh was under 200 yards passing. Not good. Find the best OC available and bring him in.

To hit them deep you need receivers who can catch.

It is, but that wasn't Brady's fault at all. He can't force our WRs to separate deep, that isn't something you just scheme open. The guys have to have to the natural ability to do that in the first place and then they need to execute. And we had 3 brilliant deep passes to open WRs that all went through their hands.

Wouldn’t have been much of a game without Allen.

I'm not talking about deep throws downfield, there are ways to scheme intermediate level throws. I agree, the WR group made that difficult, but it isn't as hard as they made it look.

and even when they're there and the ball is perfect he can't make them catch the damn ball.
