On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren from SB Nation to discuss a variety of Buffalo Bills related topics, including general manager Brandon Beane deserving his fair share of criticism and blame after the Bills fell to Kansas City on Sunday and failed to reach the Super Bowl.Coaching was definitely an issue at times with Buffalo in a narrow three point loss as was a handful of players who woefully underperformed when the Bills needed it most. Both areas have been the target of criticism but Beane deserves to get his slice of the blame pie as well. The guys talk about how while he's made a lot of terrific veteran personnel decisions and nailed some draft picks, he's also made some mistakes with highly touted players that really hurt the Bills on Sunday.Among them discussed is first-round draft pick Dalton Kincaid, who had a nightmare at Arrowhead on Sunday, as well as Bills first pick from this year's class, Keon Coleman, who had just one catch on the day and only three for the entire playoffs. Sprinkle in Kaiir Elam, who's proved to be an absolute bust and you have a high drafting problem in Buffalo. Hell, you can even add in how first round pick Greg Rousseau kind of threw away a very good regular season by faceplanting against Kansas City.There's also the Von Miller situation, the trade for Amari Cooper who never really lived up to the hype this season and other moves discussed Beane's at least partially on the hook for.They also go back to coaching and discuss some of the key elements of the game, including a pair of revealing comments about not knowing what the Chiefs were going to do in keyi spots of the game from two Buffalo veteran starters. That plus an exploratory look on how things may play out for Buffalo this offseason and much more.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red’s at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.
