With 13 seconds left, what exactly were the Bills playing defensively?   

Their best shot was to squib kick it and burn some more time off.

Wouldn't have mattered what defense they played, didn't matter all game.

Yup, in terms of young QBs Dak is probably the safest pick.

Don't have much faith in Fields, Lance, or Love either.

He’s 29 or will be by next season. not young, not old and his name is rayne prescott

Even though arm talent is far more important than mobility, I still wouldn’t sort the top QBs simply according to arm talent.  Burrow’s arm talent is still excellent.  If you give him a nice pocket and WRs that are always open, he’ll get them the ball with excellent reliability.  And that’s enough to run up the score in a playoff shootout.

Tonight…that was something else.  But that was a once in a generation game.  Shootouts don’t always go quite like that.

Arm talent is far more important than mobility, no doubt, but when one player has the edge in arm talent and mobility, that's hard to overcome. Not impossible, and Burrow is certainly the kind of player that can do it, but it's an uphill climb for him among the young 4.

Hope Hurts watched this game. He needs the fast progression review of Mahommes. The ability to,throw from different angles of both.  Standing straight up like Allen behind the LOS.  The quick trigger of both and throwing where the receiver will be.  Running to seek an open receiver like both. Not too much to ask, is it?

Hurts is what he is. He had guys like Saban, Riley and Pederson and he still hasn’t gotten to  a second read or an Anticipation throw. He’s a one read runner

kicking it out of the endzone was a monumental mistake, they should have squib kicked it and cut that 13 seconds in half

Yeah, it's a lack of choice more than an actual choice.

Sure it does.  KC has a great offense but to go down the field like that in 13 seconds?  

That's inexcusable.   KC can get down the field but 13 seconds?  They didn't do that until the end.  Buffalo did something stupid on defense, I'm sure.

No way Lurie watched all these games and went "Yeah Hurts is good enough."

Hes talented. He has not "arrived" until he can perform all the way through a post-season.

Yeah…I dunno man. Generally I think you have pretty solid opinions. But I think this is a pretty bad take, and your timing for this take is even worse.

Not sure about that with Tyreek Hill back there.

Their coverage was way too soft. They played it as if the Chiefs had no timeouts.

And Dak was 23/45 for 245 yards 1 TD 1 INT vs the Niners. Nothing really special. 

Go hire a a masseuse and trade for Watson

the timing is probably the issue. but its not hard to go look at his game log right now and see the inconsistency still remains in his game.

They were terrified of Hill so didn't exactly know what to do.

AWFUL decision. I was screaming squib at the TV. Belichick guaranteed squibs that.

Everyone is blinded by the luster of his performance tonight. But check out the way Allen has ended the game in each of his previous playoff losses if you can. Its UGLY. And check out his season rankings in comp%, INTs, and QB rating... Not every game is like tonight with him. 

Philly fans would have run him out of town by now based on his previous playoff stints. Allen took a TON of coaching up. And hes still inconsistent as hell.

But if you just want a guy who gives you a chance at a game like tonight.... consider Ridder. 

the clown show continues

exactly.  They had to play tighter.

 Not arrived?   This is almost as dumb as your, "Howie is a great GM” take.  
 

 

youre not woke yet. youll have to go check his stats yourself. and go refresh your memory on how he fizzled out of his last 2 playoff trips.

There's no doubt he's a game-changer. He's a nightmare to defend.

Not questioning Josh Allen. He is capable of huge games. Questioning whether he can keep it up in the biggest games because he has not done that. Would have been interesting to see if he could do this again in the championship game, and super bowl. Because history has shown he melts down big time in the biggest games. 

And if you watched tonight and got the wrong impression that he is like this all the time, just do yourself a favor and go check out his game log. Check all the games with bad completion percentage. multiple INTs. and low QB ratings. Although he can give you an amazing game like tonight, he is still inconsistent as hell. 

Hes talented. He has not "arrived" until he can perform all the way through a post-season.

How can you say he hasn't arrived? That was probably a top 10 playoff performance of all-time at QB. He was constantly buying close to 10 seconds to make plays. Was he supposed to play defense, too?  I guess Dan Marino never arrived, too since he didn't win a SB.
