Take away 4 kneel downs for -6 yards and it was 8.53 yards per play. The Chiefs seemed to have more 20 yard plays yesterday than they did in all of December.
Buffalo executed a game plan for them to win by running 78 plays and having the ball for almost 38 minutes. But they missed making plays in clutch time. I don't think they should fire McDermott because he had a decent plan and the defensive injuries were pretty significant.
