But I also think our personnel is better this year. I just don't feel like the defensive play calling is playing to their strengths. Feel the same way about offense honestly. |

Also Bryan Cook is way faster than Deon Bush. We missed that speed a lot.

Spags has been alright, but the defense is inconsistent...need a different scheme
I think it's clear that while the defense has its moments, it's not really able to put consistent pressure on opposing QBs without clever blitz packages (or CJ being superman). Even so, forcing turnovers has not been a strong point with Spags. The Eagles in one year with Fangio advising were able to transform themselves into a turnover machine.
This article does a great job of explaining why the NFL is looking to Fangio and his proteges to confuse quarterbacks. See this link: theathletic.com/3311028/2022/05/24/vic-fangio-defense-analysis/[/url] |

But the roster is what the roster is. So it's up to Spags to make the pieces work. And given that he has a mediocre (at best) front 4 to work with, he's gotta take some high risk, high reward shots. And sometimes they don't work out. Sometimes the bear eats you. And it isn't just because 'Spags Sucks!!' - the other guys are pretty damn good sometimes.

And yet, they've only allowed an opponent to score more than 30 once and more than 24 twice? Are you suggesting they fluked their way into those numbers?

I personally think that's where we blew our chance. The end of the first half was a disaster but despite that we had a chance to put them away. I'm not bothered looking back at the way the final drive ended. It's the drive you were talking about that bothers me.

There is no way at all that 4 straight AFCCG is a letdown. If we didn't win any of them, then sure, get fussy. People like the 2000's Chiefs fans will call you an entitled ****, but that one I get. Here's the thing. The Goddamned Brother****ing Cheatriot ****bags (and their associated officiating) has ruined expectations for the rest of the league. Here's the reality: AFTER the salary cap era, dynasties don't happen, unless you're obviously cheating, have a great coach that fell ass backward into a great QB, and the officiating is always in your favor. That's a HEAVY ****ing lift for any dynasty to achieve over the long term. And I think the refs have been pretty clear that Mahomes isn't getting those calls. Mahomes is the best there has ever been, and I'll die on that hill... to the grave. But as good as he is, he can't make up as much ground as cheating, coaching, and reffing can from his one position.

HOWEVER, me in the heat of the moment, and you now are obviously missing the times that he did it and it worked. So yeah, fire away, but if he's always rolling safeties over and playing it conservative, he doesn't get the good plays and we just take a nice stroll down the field for a touchdown. Much like I'd never try to coach Mahomes out of that last interception because you lose entirely too much good to get rid of the bad, you just gotta wear those. Unless he can convince Veach to go hog on passrushers like NYG did when he was there, it ain't happening. |

That was first down. You cannot make that play there and if means missing on the occasional remarkable play on 1st down (that he'll probably just make on 2nd or 3rd instead), so be it. But the issue with that play isn't that it happened, its that it happened on 1st down with a minute left and 2 timeouts. Just throw the damn ball away. Allen would've...

I’m still shocked that a defense composed of rookie day 3 starting corners, a backup safety, no Willie Gay, no Trent McDuffie and a struggling pass rush held that offense to 17 points until the last few mins and 24 overall. Josh Allen struggled. Like he struggled pretty badly until the end of the 3rd. We had that man in hell for a good 2 quarters. But the point remains. Patrick and the offense had every opportunity to drive down and win. Hell even get a FG on that drive and your last drive becomes a “get 35 or so yards to set up a game winning FG” but instead they needed a TD. They went 3 and out. Just can’t do that. I guess that’s the adjustment to the new offense
