This defense is bad enough it could cause a locker room rift.

"but...but...someone would say something."
Player says "something" about the NFL being scripted. "Oh well he's not a good source, CTE..." Herp a derp.

Ok, let's cut the crap:
1. You had multiple opportunities to win the game, but, so did we. Both teams blew many chances, and, got stupid, to questionable, to outright ridiculous penalties. It's pretty much what happens when a hugely magnified game gets hugely magnified attention. The notion that you lost because of the refs is the province of an unmitigated moron. 2. I did not expect the Chiefs to play the type of defense they did, but, I didn't expect the Bills to play what we did either. I think the difference in the game is: Allen was more successful in checking down than Mahomes, despite the spate of drops, which says a lot more about the defensive game plans, than it does about either QB. Both of our guys want to throw the ball all over the yard. Your pass rush was obviously worse than ours. 3. Injuries? Matt Milano had never played a healthy game, or a game at all, against you. We had Klein covering Hill in this game way too often. There's no way you should lose that matchup, but, too often, you did. 4. Your team expects to win based on flash plays/Chris Collinsworth Ball Washing. Our team expects to win based on hard work. We saw what wins tonight. 5. Our GM is better than your GM. 6. We tested the refs...and forced them to call a fair game. How? By putting our players in the same exact position and forcing them to explain what was different, every single time. We behaviorally conditioned the refs...which...is exactly why we got that weak roughing the passer call(yeah, I know it's weak, but so was the one on Oliver, which is my point). This is the biggest difference between the 90s Bills and this team: we don't whine, we go out there and do the same thing the other team does to us and force the refs onto the defensive. Do I really need to explain the many and various disparities between the Bruce Smith/Derrick Thomas calls? Probably, because so much of this board is bandwagon. 7. Your team doesn't suck. Not even close. You shut down Diggs/Beasley. That's impressive. But, you did it with scheme, not talent. The fact that you can shut down 2 top end WRs is something to be happy about. You didn't shut down our #3. But, think about it: how many #3 WRs == Emanuel Sanders are you going to play this year? Yeah, yeah, you're missing guys. So what? Your scheme covered that. Think of it this way: if you don't win you division, who is going to knock you out of the playoffs? The Faders?(literally living up to that name) Broncos? Cleveland? Ravens? Steelers? Titans? LOL! Come on. All of those teams are weak. To this day we still consider our loss to the Steelers as our 4th preseason game. 5. You're going to be fine: the trouble is, the media, your fanbase, and Mahomes specifically had this game coming. The only question is what do you do now? |

It's hard to tell how much is terrible coaching and how much is just a lack of talent, but it's definitely partly the latter.
This roster outside of our marquee players just isn't very good. I have sympathy for Veach with the salary cap restrictions, and I didn't hate most of his off-season moves. But if he gets credit for the IOL rebuild he probably deserves some heat for the rest. We are worse at OT, WR, CB and our entire DL. Our LBs have been a disaster. No doubt shitty coaching is a large part of this - If your scheme takes half a year for people to understand and then gets you a middling defence, maybe it's a bit s**t. But we're also hoping on a large collection of players to suddenly show something they've not. I get Sneed, Gay and Thornhill have shown ability in patches, but they're not elite talent that changes this team. I get Nnadi has been decent before and we couldn't have seen have far he's dropped off. But there's now a lot of players I don't have great faith will turn it around on defence. We can't afford to spend R1 picks on middling running backs, move our best DT to DE and replace him with dross at DT, or hope R1 busts solve our problems in the secondary. Hoping they all magically turn it around or come next year a change in coaching does it, but really we need to find more talent |

Look at the rankings compared to the rest of the league and get back to me.
