Agreed; I couldn't believe they wanted to run a play there.

Expand  

if nothing else settle Lamar down knowing he can’t scramble on that first play.

 

the chaos doesn’t benefit him as a passer, just as a runner. Slow it down and get everyone synced up.

An end around with great blocking and a blown coverage...let's see how Coleman does first

Expand  

Exactly he didn’t do much he got a well designed play and a free TD

Eh.  Flowers doesn’t want to sit too tight to the left side of the window he ran into.  I think it’s generous trying to take some of that away from Lamar.  That wasn’t a pass that missed flowers by a few inches.  He tossed that three feet left of flowers outstretched hand 

Expand  

Of course the pass missed by a lot. Zay Flowers was running full speed away from the ball lol. 
 

I do agree it was a gray area there where you can argue Zay should have sat down or argue that the hole would have closed up if he had. Hard to say for sure which is probably why the miscommunication occurred.

I remember the Eagles game last year where Gabe Davis cut the wrong way and it made it look like Allen missed him for a game winning TD. It's all anybody talked about for like 3 days.

Expand  

Go back and watch that play from the EZ angle. I absolutely put that one on Allen. He threw it to Gabe’s left but Gabe’s route carried him up the field, looking over his right shoulder. Shoulda hit him where he was going, not force him to whip his head/body around to catch a ball to his left.

I know. I been bitching about that for like two years. That and never any YAC until Shakir last year. 

Expand  

That's what I think that the Bills are hoping that Coleman can do. He can make catches on jump balls, something that none of our players have been able to do in the Josh Allen era.

[TheFunPolice]

Mahomes is amazing and proves it every year. That said, I think Allen is every bit as good.

 

Mahomes has the rings and the uncrowned GOAT and great offensive mind as HC. 

 

Allen has an above average to very good defensive minded HC

Let's be honest... this game was fine for us.

 

I know Worthy scored twice... but was it any indication of anything spectacular? Did he do anything else?

 

Ravens losing is likely best for Buffalo. KC is running away with the West

Expand  

 

Exactly this.

 

I'm going to hate the Worthy talk - but it's not based on anything too "real."  Great blocking on the 1 TD, and a blown coverage on the 2nd.

 

He's fast - but we all knew that.

How about the weapons he has had to work with? That counts for something too. 

 

We could banter back and forth here. There are valid arguments to make on both sides. Let's let it go here. 

Expand  

Let what go?   Relax 

 

Lamar got close.  He is a great, but a one dimensional qb.   

[78thealltimegreat]

I agree with Coach Harbaugh going for 2 so no problem there…but the Ravens clock management at the end of both halves was horrible 

[BuffaloRebound]

Can’t stand Mahomes but he doesn’t miss that throw to Flowers.  The margin of winning is so small and Mahomes making enough plays is almost always the difference.  Frustrating.  Gotta find a way to beat him.

Regardless of fault, it was still talked about a large portion of the week in the sports media because Allen is held to some ridiculous standard. Doubt the Flowers miss even gets mentioned past tomorrow morning.

[TheFunPolice]

Worthy had a great first game which is fine.

 

Rams Lions is going to be a lot of fun to watch 

[The Helmet of]

Lamar had some bad throws and misses. But no one in the media will say that. They’ll just say “ they couldn’t connect.” 
 

Lamar is an elite athlete but he’s not a Super Bowl caliber QB. Baltimore will have to fight hard to get into the playoffs…

I'm not stressing with Worthy. Maybe he will be good. Maybe not. Whatever. Some fans are too focused on that.

[Success]

KC has that thing where there is such a small margin of error when you play them.

 

We've been like that at times over the years w/ Allen.  I'm not sure if that's us this year.

Fair enough, that’s a reasonable thing to say but Worthy was my guy, it gutted me to see Reid trade up to get this guy.. I was never high on Coleman..

The whole defense did. Then he offense came alive in the playoffs when they benched Toney and MVS stopped dropping passes. 

Expand  

Yea mvs made a few crazy contested catches against us that we will likely see none of from him this year 😂

Chris jones is low key kind of carrying mahomes a bit the last year plus lol 

Expand  

Jones is a real difference maker and a very unique advantage KC has… he doesn’t get his due from the media with all the Mahomes , Kelce and soon to be Worthy carry on
