Season over. Ow.

Can someone remind me why they don’t run back kick-offs anymore? I remember something about them moving the kick-off point up a bit so most go out the back of the end zone, but the Bills have received two returnable kicks. Is there a reason to not try running them rather than taking the touchback?
It is pretty rare to run it out of the end zone and if you do you rarely get farther than where you start on the touch back.
 
At least TB has looked dialed in these playoffs. Big turnaround since that Miami walk off FG
 
Is Josh gonna throw the ball down field more than 10 yards at some point this game, or is it gonna be last game all over again (course I’ll take the same result 😁) ?
Well you can tell already it’s a totally different game plan than last week. Not a lot of running thus far.

If he had missed that you might as well go for it on 4th down the rest of the game. You can’t be trading TD’s with FG’s

A touchback comes out to the 30 yard line now. It's usually a better option to take the ball on the 30 than to run it out and risk getting stopped short of the 30.

McDermott in the past against the Chiefs has always been extremely conservative in playcalling on 4th down decisions. Fine with this recent one but hopefully he's more aggressive later on
