Can't wait to see the ST coach get scapegoated for this and people defend McD saying he's just the Head Coach, he has no idea what all of the coordinators are doing, it's not his fault!

The ST coach has been walking dead for months … could have won the SB and he would still be gone

Maybe the worst call I’ve ever seen. You can’t tell me that McD’s personal beliefs weren’t involved with giving that play the OK. That alone was a fireable play

Chiefs had 10 men on the field, Bills had 8 blockers to 6 rushers for the Chiefs. Should have been an easy first down.  Honestly inexcusable they didn't get it done well enough.

It’s about momentum Joe, and we gave that to them after that BS call. Yeah it wasn’t an end all be all play but it was a horrible horrible call

Horrible call. They got desperate… and their defense was a sieve in the playoffs yet again. How unpredictable?

Dude the defense was decimated. I can't blame that. The Chiefs attacked their weaknesses. 

[hjnick]

Horrible call.  If you were going to do that, leave the offense on the field.

 

I have more faith in Josh than special teams....

So you prefer them to just punt it or go for it?  Can’t even remember how far to go … but it wasn’t a gimme right? 

[LABILLBACKER]

On your own 30?  Dumbest call by McD all season.  Just validates what an idiot he is.  And Damar of all people?

Sure, but no accountability for the guy that hired him and who knew what that horrible play was and called for it anyway. 

[BillsFanForever19]

It led to zero points scored by the Chiefs via a Turnover. Crisis averted. Weird thing to be hung up on.

I’m not defending McD … all I’m saying ia that he is back next year and ST coach is gone … Special Teams been ordinary all year

They were missing their starting MLB… the Chiefs punted once and moved the ball AT WILL…. Come one with this, it’s the same story every year with McD against quality coaching and a good QB. He gets taken to the woodshed every time.

So more investment required in the D … gotcha

After half with the lead and chiefs went right down and scored to open the 2nd half I feel our offense identity should have changed......we should have been shootout mentality and instead we continued to try to force "Complimentary " balanced football and kept running into 10 man fronts

Offense had their chance and blew it. We knew coming into this they had to win it.

Yea let’s stack defense again so the Chiefs can punt maybe two times instead of one next January? 😅

What sort of game do they beat them in ? 63-60?

McDermott wanted an offense to play perfect ball for 14 play drives and chew clock to limit his decimated defense exposure.......OK but to try to do so by running into a chiefs defense who obviously themed their halftime speech and adjustments on STOPPING the run was mind-boggling..even the passing played right into their strength by dialing up allot of short near the los quick passes......we never really challenged the intermediate...all runs,short passes or try to hit them on the homerun....mind boggling

And the momentum shifted again when KC fumbled …

 

Should the Bills have punted instead ?

need some clarification on this

[BillMafia716ix]

McDermott had zero faith in the defense. He confirmed it in the presser but that call in that point of the game was idiotic. Better off just going for it 

[billieve420]

How long were they waiting to unleash that play all season. Should have buried us there but once again they dangled the carrot in front of Bill’s fans before taking it all away. I thought we would find way to pull it out after that fumble in the endzone but we didn’t make enough plays in the 2nd half after outplaying the Chiefs in the first half.
