The special teams call cost the Bills. There is no way, no way you don’t squib the kickoff with 13 seconds left. Dumbest poo I have ever seen. Also, why not just rush 3 and drop 8, I guess I don’t understand?

Yeah I was about to make the same point on the kickoff. You can't kick a touch back with 13 seconds. Forcing a return would run at least 3 or 4 seconds off the clock and then KC only has time for 1 play before a fg or hail mary. Unfortunate. I'm sure McDermott is going to lose a lot of sleep second guessing himself on the end of that game.

Josh Allen is an all time talent, Mahommes is a product of Andy Reid TBH. Josh is basically the entire Bills offense and dragged this trash ass team to the brink of victory.

That is like saying Tom Brady is a product of Bill Belichick.  Mahomes is the real deal.

Is it better to be a Panther fan or just enjoy the game of football without aligning with a certain team?

These playoffs and the current state of our team, I'm seriously questioning it.

I gave up on NFL fandom about 4-5 years ago so I could enjoy a good game without investment.

Makes for a happier, healthy life.

I think that's understating the playmaking ability of guys like Hill but yes, no question that an elite QB makes a world of difference. This game doesn't happen without both of those guys.

Reid may have unlocked Mahomes but I don't know how you say that given all of the plays that Mahomes has singlehandedly create over the years. If anything he's an example of what elite talent in an undeveloped package can accomplish with proper coaching, much like Allen in Buffalo.

This.

Saying Mahomes is just a product of Andy Reid is low football IQ

Tyreek Hill is like a bigger version of that return man Hall they had plus elite receiving skills.

Dante.  Dante had similar quicks, with jukes, stop and start ability etc, but his speed wasnt particularly close if I recall. T. Hill has both.

Brady did just last season. Rodgers definitely can if he goes to a stacked team like Brady did last year. Rodgers with Payton is my nightmare since those 2 for a season with their stacked OL, Michael Thomas and Kamara could hang with anyone easily.

Brady defense carried him in the playoffs last season and everyone knows it.

Bucs lost by being too aggressive.

Bills lost by not being aggressive enough.

The football Gods are fickle.

Yes as much as I hate prevent D, theres a reason teams do it... Plus only the times that prevent D fails to work do people highlight them. The times that it works people are quiet.

That said theres a happy medium.

100% but he did enough along with that D to beat the Chiefs led by Mahomes. Can Brady hang with Mahomes/Allen when they’re putting up 30-40+ points like this? No of course not but these guys aren’t gonna put up these efforts every single game. As we saw from the SB last year

Regardless of the result Josh Allen is top 1-2 QB in the league 

Hang in there!  Your team just played one of the best playoff games in history.  Somebody had to lose unfortunately.  Josh Allen is a future MVP IMO.

    • Not sure if they are happy but realize they can’t upgrade everything this year and are content with the group
    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
