    49ers get Robert Saleh back as a defensive coordinator.

    That's a huge get for the 49ers. His defenses his last two years at 49ers were elite and the Jets defenses were very good when he was there.

      Great news. Now we have to turn our dozen or so draft picks into solid OL and defensive upgrades

              Like the Lions. And the Texans. That's post-season baby.

                        NFL aren't doing much to dispel the appearance of KC getting big calls their way

                            Refs hatcheted the Bills in that game.

                            Two well dodgy calls.

                              I think on balance its the best sport in the world at the moment.

                              Especially from December to February.

                              Compelling viewing on a Saturday and Sunday night.

                              And to be fair, more often than not the refs and "TMO's" get it right.

                              Not like football and rugby which are a complete abomination in their current iterations.

                                It struck me today

                                The quality of the KC coaching is so much better than any other team in the NFL it isn't close.

                                Chiefs don't beat themselves.

                                These other teams come up small when it counts again and again

                                The Bills have a 250 pound QB and can't run a sneak to save their lives - why? Poor coaching

                                Spagnuolo runs the perfect blitz on 4th down - why? He's the best D coordinator in the league by a mile.

                                Bills O Coordinator's 2 point conversion plays were God awful - you would never see Andy Reid run plays like that.

                                This reminds me a lot of Crusaders under Razor and Mo'unga - they don't beat themselves - and the other team eventually will. Every. Single. Time.

                                Mahomes is amazing but I didn't think he did much today - the play calling by Reid was sensational - he had guys wide open and those play action boots work every time.

                                Sirani is not a great coach and is off to his 2nd Super Bowl in 3 years. Shanahan is a conservative choke artist but has a good playoff record. Why? The quality of coaching outside of KC is weak.

                                And do any of these idiot owners searching for a coach hire Spagnuolo? No.

                                    Chiefs have been like this all year tbh. Mahomes has quietly been a bit average but their defence and special teams has pulled them through.

                                    Spags has had a crack at HC and wasn't impressive. Being a great DC (or OC) doesn't mean much in terms of HC success - although successful coordinators often get a second chance so it's a bit surprising he hasn't had a second go. Some coaches do really benefit from having had time to reflect on what went wrong.

                                        This could come back to bite me, but it does thus far feel like the three best teams this year were KC, Buffalo and Baltimore...
