SouthBuffaloSteve Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 not that I hold grudges or anything but that KC loss takes away SOME of the sting for me. I’m now ready to move onto next year. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I feel so relieved. All is good in the world again. The Bengals defense held the Chiefs to 3 pts at home after halftime including OT and winning the toss...Incredible performance. Did anyone see what they did? They rushed 3 people and dropped everyone else back into coverage. Their d line man while way underpaid compared to ours were incredible and their LBS were better. I will now be watching the superbowl and watching tonights game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're so much faster than anyone we have on defense. We need speed on both sides of the ball. I want Fast CB at pick #25 and either a quick RB/WR in rounds 2/3. I also want us to sign a veteran rusher. They take too long to develop. Greg Rosseau was okay this year but not really an impact player. A trade similar to the Hughes one yrs back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be a man and Own it. Yep. I don't see that changing though. McDermott made idiot calls all season long. He one time declined a 5 yd penalty that would have made it a 52 yrd fg vs 47 for no reason. That Jags game was all coaching. He could have put Bates in at O line which solved all our O line issues earlier. He is so stubborn in keeping "his" guys in. We had a really rough patch mid year on our O line and to think it was easily solvable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Niners need an upgrade at quarterback if they want to take the next step. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmendevils8204 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 A narrative about the Chiefs being underachievers might begin to take shape here. Four consecutive AFC championship games, only one Super Bowl title to show for it. Credit to the Bengals for hanging in there but that’s a terrible loss for Kansas City. They should have more opportunities with Mahomes being so young but there are no guarantees. Russell Wilson and the Seahawks reached back to back Super Bowls and then never returned. A lot has to go right to reach the summit. Plus, the competition in the AFC is only getting stiffer. Josh Allen, Joe Burrow, Justin Herbert, Lamar Jackson, Derek Carr to a lesser extent. These guys will be around for awhile and will only get better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot has to go right to reach the summit. Interesting take, I hadn't thought of KC & being viewed as underachievers but maybe in time?....I think (could be off here) that teams like GB could be viewed in that lens, to a degree, through the Favre & Rodgers years. Certainly didn't maximize their potential in terms of SB rings. New England and Brady certainly wouldnt be viewed as underachieving by any rational standard but that was a rare long-lasting combo of elite QB having a surrounding team + Coach that also stayed good/great at the same time. Have to go back to the Landry/Staubach, Lombardi/Starr, and Browns of yore to find franchises that seemed to maximize rings (and NFL Championships pre-SB). Random thoughts... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Random thoughts... 4 AFC championship games and only 1 superbowl. 1/2 more and no more SB wins would definitely be underachieving. To only win one with a HOF QB, TE, and WR is tough. But the Bills lost 4 superbowls with a HOF RB, WR, QB, and DE so its possible. Marino and Kelly have no superbowls, Brees 1 and Rodgers 1. It's tough to win the big one. Manning had 1 his entire career at Indy before going to the superteam in Denver. I think Mahomes/Allen are the top 2 QBs in the league for the next 10 years. I expect both to win at least 1 more in the next decade. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will now be watching the superbowl and watching tonights game! Ya what a game it was! Loved the ending of the first half and into the second. KC got a little too confident at the end of the first half and walked away with 0... Love it! I was pretty discouraged by the way the game started, but we have typically been a 2nd half team. That definitely showed up between Joe scrambling more and the D adjustments, amazing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Tampa also has a lot of free agents who might walk now too. Has any team's odds to reach the next Super Bowl ever taken such a steep fall? The NFC South is definitely up for grabs now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfie09 Posted February 1, 2022 Author Share Posted February 1, 2022 NEW YORK -- Brian Flores has sued the NFL and three teams -- the Dolphins, the Broncos and the Giants -- alleging discrimination regarding his interview processes with Denver and New York and his firing last month by Miami. The 58-page lawsuit was filed in Manhattan federal court Tuesday and seeks class-action status. In it, Flores claims Dolphins owner Stephen Ross attempted to incentivize him to "tank" or purposely lose games shortly after he was hired in 2019, with Ross allegedly offering Flores $100,000 for every game the team lost that season. Flores says that as the team won games late in the season, Dolphins general manager Chris Grier told him Ross was "mad" that Flores' on-field success was "compromising [the team's] draft position." https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/33194862/brian-flores-sues-nfl-others-former-miami-dolphins-coach-alleges-racism-hiring-practices 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of that lawsuit makes zero sense. The part of Daboll wanting out because he didn't like McDermott? He decided to stay another year this year when he had head coach offers last offseason. The part of Flores being coach and Daboll going to be Offensive coordinator also makes zero sense. Why would he make a lateral move when he is literally the #1 head coaching candidate this year and last? Reeks of BS. Mcdermott was so bad that Dorsey went back on his handshake agreement with Daboll to become Offensive coordinator for the Bills. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 If any of this is false, he will never coach again in the NFL/college/high school. I think he knew that before the allegations which make it hard to believe this isn't true. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
