There’s no f’ing way Josh gets that ball to Shakir. He had about half a second to throw the ball before getting blown up and Shakir was probably the third read on the play. [Reply]
Insane play by Karlaftis to almost tip the ball, then still recover and make a possible TD-saving tackle.
This play call was really bizarre and a lot of us in the GDT said it at the time. It’s third and 10 with Josh Allen and you make a lateral throw on a WR screen? Very strange play call in that situation and good on Karlaftis to break it up.
On edit: Finally bothered to watch the breakdown and saw the point of the post — it actually came pretty close to working. [Reply]
I actually really like your passion and knowledge for the game but sitting in your comfortable swivel chair with the heater on in the house and a clicker in hand makes the game very easy
Having two unblocked, unimpeded defenders believe it or not is pretty difficult to… https://t.co/AC7I9P4zMO
Fucking Spags man. He is a fucking master of this shit
Chatted with #Bills guard O'Cyrus Torrence about the decisive fourth and 5 play. All game, DC Steve Spagnuolo showed this particular pressure... and backed off. Typically sent heat where the Chiefs *weren't* showing it pre-snap. That's why the Bills slid their protection left.…

The ENTIRE point to that blitz was to blow up that orbit motion without actually covering it. You can see McDuffie react to it -- the Chiefs didn't miss it, they simply knew they had the play-call made that would force Allen to make a decision before he could get back to it.
If the blitz doesn't get home, we're boned. But that's the nature of a blitz there.
We never covered Shakir because we never intended to. The entire plan was to leave him uncovered and simply get Allen's eyes off him with the pressure.
The only mistake anyone made there was Cook not getting his depth because he followed Hollins too long underneath (I think that was Hollins anyway) even while Hollins had a route that was taking him right to Bolton and Hicks. (EDIT: That was Cooper)
If that ball gets caught, it's ENTIRELY on Cook for cheating up for no real reason.
Cook was roasted ass in game that. I agree....we need to draft a true free safety with speed and range. A ballhawk type. [Reply]

I can't believe that clown is criticizing Allen for that play. He's one of the only QBs in the league who could have even made the throw he did make under that kind of pressure. Kincaid was also open, it was there and the guy just dropped it. [Reply]

Like you said, the other team is going to make plays. It's about when you make them.
Spags is clutch. Mahomes is clutch. This whole team is just ****ing clutch.
Yep. I thought Spags was bad the 2nd half……until literally the most important possession of the game and then he just unleashed. Like a movie when the hero is getting their ass kicked and then they land a crushing kill shot at the final moment. [Reply]

Or perhaps the orbit motion was the call and Josh just looked elsewhere?
Just goes to show that the RB mesh play to Perine was such a brilliant playcall.
it wasn't a terribly playcall.
Allen slides protection and it's not at all a 'slow developing' play. He has Shakir on the orbit and Johnson on an underneath drag -- both plays open and would've been easy 1st downs.
Play call was fine - his QB didn't read the defense right.
