McDermott cost us #1 seed

[Jamone]

The two massive coaching blunders this year cost us the 1 seed. Going for 3 straight passes and leaving enough time for Houston to get the ball back and kick a game winning field goal and choosing to accept the penalty on Los Angeles instead of 4th and 7 which would have no doubt resulted in a field goal. Just terrible. The gauntlet of how the playoffs look like they are going to play out is tragic. If we see the ravens,  which is more than likely, I unfortunately see us getting bounced in the divisional round. Hopefully chargers or Pittsburgh can beat them in the wildcard…

Can AI just sort these repetitive posts and threads into a junk drawer?

 

another way to look at is he got us the 2 seed and resurrected a defunct franchise

Pfffffttt…. Hindsight is 20/20 also.

Nothing says bad coaching like having one of the largest dead caps in history, getting rid of all your captains and getting the two seed.

[scuba guy]

I thought we beat the lions.

 

Next question 🤔

We beat Detroit. 

[Kelly to Allen]

Look man I thought there was zero Chance kc would run the table. Plus the 3 games in ten days. If buffalo wins 14 games, it will be the first time in 20 years a 14 win team didn't get the one seed. 

 

 

 

They got it done. Sometimes you gotta just tip your cap. 

 

We'll see them in arrowhead.

We were never getting that 1 seed. 16-1 is an extremely unrealistic expectation for even the best teams.

The Raiders and Denver game, both missed fg's in the final seconds that gave KC the wins

Why not put blame on the half dozen teams that had KC on the ropes in the closing moments and let victory slip away. Bills did their part.

It really is insane

This is the kind of poster that would create a thread right after winning the Super Bowl saying "YEAH BUT WE ONLY WON BY 4. MCDERMOTT MUST GO"

You owe me a bottle of Vodka after that

We absolutely stunk up the joint in Houston. We were fortunate to be in that game at all. You’re talking about end of game decisions. Better decisions probably gets us to overtime. No guarantee we win (although Allen is due to win an overtime game one of these years).  Rams game, defense was beyond atrocious.  We accepted the penalty and put them in 3rd and 17. They converted the 4th and 5.  You don’t think they would have converted 4th and 7?  Big mistake taking time out at the end but again, would we have prevented Rams from getting first down to ice game?  Probably not.  In what was supposed to be a down year, you just cannot complain about a 12 - 3 record.

Oh contraire, he clearly did

Remember that time McDermott went 9/31 passing against the overrated Houston Texans defense?
