2022 NFL Playoff Thread

[Strange Brew]

In that tying drive, the Chiefs essentially converted two 4th and 20’s in a row. Sometimes you get beat by great plays but the first play wasn’t even contested, Bills just gave it to them.

This, and I couldn’t believe they kicked it through.

And yeah, it sucks for the Bills they didn’t get the ball in OT. Maybe the defence could’ve made a stop though.

The Chiefs offence was absolutely clutch, and it seems like a lot of Bills supporters are acting as though they won the toss and it was a foreigner conclusion. They still had to drive down and score. All of their top players were involved in that drive and I don’t think they’re getting credit for how impressive that drive was.

i dont feel that drive was all that impressive, the Bills just rolled over. The TD throw to Kelce was impressive.

We know PM wasn't going to take off and run and had to beat the Bills with his arm so the run threat was out of the window.



That extra coverage man was really needed.

The sidelines? KC had three timeouts there was no clock issue. It’s like the Bills just didn’t understand the math. Chiefs had two plays to get 30 to 40 yards and Bills played it like they had to get it all in one chunk.

The game tying drive was some of the worst defense I’ve ever seen.

Both the Hill and Kelce catches there was no defender within at least 5 yards of them.

Just playing way too soft and I couldn’t believe the space that KCs two biggest playmakers had when they only have 13 seconds to tie.

Sure, but you still have to make the plays. There couldn’t have been anyone watching Butker kick the 49 yarder who didn’t think back to the missed FG and extra point. Like sure, Buffalo have the game away with some bad decisions, but the Chiefs still had to make the plays.

Sometimes I think those nfl coaches over coach in situations like the bills faced.

Tough though, that one team had to lose.

[GirlySports]

As a defense you can hold. You can take two holding penalties and trade 10 yards for 10 seconds.

I honestly think they didn't know the Chiefs had timeouts, they were playing surrender the middle and tackle them inbounds. But it was so bad, even if you concede a 63 yarder and they miss it's terrible coaching. But hey let's give credit to Andy, he didn't botch his timeouts so they had that chance.

[EldrickOnIce]

When you drive and score to take the lead twice in the last 2 minutes, you should probably win

Yeah, I'm still trying to figure out another reason why the Bills would play that outside leverage on the outside, it makes next to no sense to me.



Just overall bad defensive scheming to me. They willingly gave up the seams. Hell I would have rushed 1 or 2 and dropped 9 lol. PM wasn't going to take off and run.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Bowles and Frazier might both end up getting coaching jobs, but today they cost their teams at the end of the game with their playcalls.

The FG was the most difficult play of that drive I will give you that.

That's a few less dollars I won't need for retirement with the years I lost off my life. Tough loss for Allen and the Bills as a coin flip did pretty much cost you. Between Mahomes, Allen, and Burrow plus some other young guys I think the AFC could have a long run of dominance.

The Bill's time will come here in the next two years. Mahomes has been pretty spectacular in his last 6 playoff games at home. Andy Reid finally used his timeouts properly.

[Weitz]

Just think. If they don’t lose to the jags 9-6 they host that game instead of the chiefs.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Early lines are KC -7 (53.5) and LAR -3.5 (46.5).

[Mathgod]

Wild stuff. I think the Chiefs cruise to the title now.

[Dion]

I can't remember a weekend where playoff football had so much drama.

[Dion]

The Chiefs and the Bills was my Superbowl this year. Nothing next week or in the Superbowl will match what we saw at Arrowhead stadium on Sunday night.

[Sylvanfan]

Kelce came 4 yards yards short of another 100 yard receiving game. He doesn't have many years left, but it's been some run that he has had.

Have to feel for defensive coordinators. Todd Bowles...too aggressive, costs team. Leslie Frazier too passive costs team. This likely is the year where Bienemy finally gets his chance.
