The "D" despite playing mostly rookies and guys that are undersized or old - most should be on the practice squad vs suiting up to start held their own for the most part and kept the offense in the game. This time the offense did nothing but put them in a lot of bad positions with turnovers and poor field position. In a word this team has been "inconsistent". When they do well so many folks here get amnesia about how crappy they played the week before and freak out over any critique, but the chinks and the execution stink is still there following this team around even after a big offensive showing. I felt that in this game it was the OL's turn. They simply did not match the intensity of the Texans who often just rushed 4, sometimes 3 DL players and still whooped up and beat them with effort and beat them getting to their spots to setup blocks. Josh needs to reset his internal clock when playing a good defense as it has to be 1 one thousand, 2 one thousand, and I am either throwing it to a receiver, or out of bounds, or getting a few yards running forward even if it is not enough to move the chains. There was an alarming lack of effort and focus that has plagued the OL too. Even in Pop Warner we learned to block to the whistle, not block till you feel like stopping. Too many O-Linemen standing around watching Josh get pummeled. That being said, I took no exception to Van Demark taking his guy to the ground. When you are beat that is better than a weaka$$ hold that gets Allen killed and you still get the penalty. Too many play calls coming in late and confusion from that offensive staff. Seemed like Josh was waiting too long for those all night and struggled to hear a bit with the way he was covering the ear holes on his helmet. Also when we fans can see players hurt or clearly gassed, why can't the coaches. Several times guys I saw guys dinged on plays or clearly needing a sub and nada. No substitution and usually a poor play followed. This has been an inconsistent team and certainly not complimentary, but kudos to the ST coach and players that seemed to have decent game plans and the fire to compete the past few games. It's a bright spot, but there needs to be some shakeup from the coaches and core players this season. IMO I would have to see more than one or even 2 game sample of professional execution from players and the coaching staff before I start drinking the Kool aid again. Not just one group here and another group there somehow manages to find a desperate way to overcome another mistake-riddled performance.

Well hallmark channel is basically like the lifetime network so I sure hope it's your wife forcing you and not the other way around

Dick, aren't you taking your dirt nap now ? Pats would have to go 12-5 even if the Bills beat them.

If buffalo goes 13-4 they'll be the 1 seed imo

Can you share whether you have been huffing glue, paint, or turpentine? I've been meaning to resupply and could use a good recommendation.

You ask a lot of stupid questions...

By Houston winning it hurts the Chiefs chances of making the playoffs That’s it

I’ve been a Bills and Sabres fan for 55 years.

We shouldn't need a full rebuild. Look at the Rams and Seahawks. If Clappys scheme has us undersized on D then he or it must go. Beanes scouting system is failing. No impact defenders in 8 seasons. Philly brings in vets like Zach Baun. Other playoff teams are improving while we regress.

My wife just freaking saved it

Fish stinks from the head down. Beane and McDermott

You are using last week against a divisional opponent to insinuate he isn't a top tier QB? I am looking at the big picture. He is unbelievable this season and no AFC team is stopping that offense. The Eagles probably can stop them. Adams is not even 33 yet lulz System wide receiver or not, he gets open and produces. He is a top WR. On paper, the Rams are much better than us. But any given Sunday.

They certainly aren't a "lean and mean" team. It's always been a problem.

Well they tried to alter his current contract so that he’d likely go unclaimed on waivers and he could decide where he’d go next. Because it sounds like with how his contract currently stands, teams are more likely to submit waiver claims and Cooks wouldn’t control where he goes.

This thread is drunk…go home

Joe Marino from Locked On Bills has been commenting on this general subject throughout the year... Like... He'll prepare a gameplan based on advanced scouting of an opponent and say...the Atlanta game... that's a small Defense and we need to lean on them with heavy personnel, wear them down and attack the middle of their Defense. And I think when you look at our TD drive coming out in the 3rd quarter he was exactly right. But that was the only drive we really showed that desire... I kind of felt the same about the Texans D... I know most Bills fans don't want to hear this...lol... But that is a VERY good Defense and they are good all over. I felt like the way you beat a Defense like that is to 3-7 yard them all game... Run a lot, and hope that by the 4th quarter on a short week they are worn out... Now I realize it's Bills players that were dropping like flies, but maybe that's because we played the way we did? I don't know... I so believed that was the way to win that game that on the 4th and one when we got stopped late I was thinking...just kick the FG... It's that kind of game... I know what the analytics say... Just kick the FG and stop them... Anyway... Not saying I'm right because I'm an idiot... But still...lol

I'm going with the Texans game being a very large wake up call. W - Steelers W - Bengals W - Pats W - Browns W - Philly W - Jets 13-4 - 5 seed (Pats win division at 13-4 )

I don't see the sailboat

As Seinfeld said==people, they are the worst.

It’s not ridiculous at all. People don’t make an arse outta yourself when it happens

https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/poison-pill-aimed-at-helping-brandin-cooks-clear-waivers-could-keep-saints-from-releasing-him Sounds like his contract is designed to dissuade teams he doesn't want to go to

Such a defeatist mindset. If I was Pegula, I’d remind Allen of a few things: - he wasn’t 1st or 2nd team All mountain west - he completed 52% of his passes as a rookie, one of lowest rates of any qb in the last 10 year - he had the same OC at the start of his career for 4 years, which never happens (Ej for instant has 1st time nfl OC Nate Hackett as his OC and qb coach his rookie year) - he played on teams with top 5 defenses - we traded a 1st for a top 10 wr - he has one of the biggest contracts in nfl history - the team spends to the cap - he is in every other commercial it’s weird how some of you act like we draft prime Brady as rookie. He was as raw as any top 10 qb in a long time. Allen owes Buffalo/ Bills as much as we owe him. This is sit in a corner of hotel room mentality. Why haha? Teams trade franchise qbs because they are completely washed or they are starting to be. And if it ever does happen, you rebuild your franchise like the Lions did with the Stafford trade.

I don't think he finishes his career as a Bill, but we are YEARS away from that point.
