I think the coaching staff is playing the long game. I think the Jets game is ideally how they would like to have these games go. Dominant James Cook game, defense is shut down, Josh is needed only here or there and they build a 2 score lead at half and then put it away in Q3 building to a 3 score lead in Q4 and grind the game out (of course the Jets game went way better as they had a 3 score lead at the half and built a 4 score lead and went into garbage time in Q4). But the missed kick by Prater and the early TD by the Fins threw that script off. The Prater miss didn't give Miami awesome field position (I think they took over somewhere around their own 33). But only being down "one score" and getting a break pushed them to try to make it a game again. Of course the Bills took advantage of the Fins miscues later in the game scoring a TD after the roughing the punter and then making the INT on the Tua bad decision. The Bills even erased the holding penalty on the "grinding out" drive after the INT by taking the 2nd and 16 and converting into a first down in field goal range. The Bills made 2 very critical mistakes (the missed field goal and the holding on Kincaid) and they were able to erase one of those mistakes. The Fins made 2 very big mistakes and the Bills took advantage of both.

Most of the whining about the Frenchman come from folk who understand less about what’s going on than me, and that’s saying a lot, y’all have read my rants lol,

I know Walker’s pressure caused the interception. I meant the tip itself really didn’t affect the ball that much as Tua was throwing it towards Bernard anyway.

I was nervous but it is amazing how much more calm I am with Josh than with Orton.

This feels like a pure fan vibes thing tbh…if teams are giving you the underneath throws like they have been the last few weeks you take them every time playoffs or otherwise. I get fans want to see the exciting splash downfield passing plays and Josh probably does too but teams want Josh to feel that way and force things. The plays set up behind the LOS are there a lot…usually when they don’t work someone whiffed a block etc and they work way more often than the frustrated fan even realizes.. that’s the takeaway that surprises me every time when I rewatch the games lol my biggest criticism of Josh leading up to the last year plus is he wouldn’t play the style of games that he has been playing now even when defenses were gift wrapping it for him jets and dolphins really all they have is pass rush on top of all that so there’s an extra incentive for the style of play we’ve seen

How many times we, including pundits, said that of the Chiefs in the past, like they barely squeezed by the Raiders etc. Oh they surely would lose against better teams. Yet they went on to Superbowls and continued to go to the AFC championship game 7, 8 years in a row. My advice is stop worrying about how the Bills measure up on paper against teams. You know the Bills are one of the top superbowk challengers. One game at a time just like the players do.

TJ Sanders - with a little bit of John McCargo In the first half I was like damn look at T White in the 2nd half I was like Damn! WTF you doing T White...

Yes, we have a great one. It’s called the Local and it’s in PB. Great atmosphere, lots of Bills fans and they play the Shout song after we score. @muppy, do you want to add anything?

Do you think Jimmy Kimmel was losing Disney money for the past 4 years minimum?

Another MEH pick, in a LONG line of meh picks, by the “ Wise and Might McBeane” In other news, look how big his hands are!!!!

The truth is Kimmel was already on the chopping block. His doubling down on the maga ***** is just the icing on the cake.

It's not irrelevant because Allen still can do all the other things from the different seasons, he just doesn't by default any more. Sure if we want to cherry pick various situations sometimes things happen...the other team is a group of professionals as well. "Stopped" on 4th downs was more thanks to the refs suddenly being unable to spot the ball properly for the entire game with the Bills on offense. It was so obvious and egregious to even casual fans and caused such a firestorm that the NFL had to put chips in the ball to ensure spots were accurate. Would have been 13 if not for a missed chip shot by Prater that was shanked about as badly as possible on a kick.

Up: 1. Cook 2. Kincaid 3. Elijah Moore Down: 1. Tre 2. Groot 3. TJ Sanders First off the pass rush sucked all night. They didn’t get close to an immobile QB against a bad offensive line. Ironically they performed better against a mobile QB and a decent OL the week before. I’m hoping the potential is there and I do think Ed Oliver will help. Tre White was horrible. Babich made the perfect call with a corner blitz on Tua. Tre had him dead to rights and just whiffed. Plus whenever Tua needed a completion he looked to Waddle in 1V1 coverage against Tre. At this point, I think they look to work in Strong and eventually Harrison. TJ Sanders looks like a mix between Boogie Basham and DeWayne Carter. That’s not good. He might as well be the invisible man He also missed a sack on Tua on 3rd down which would have given Buffalo the ball back before the half. That could have changed the game. Tre didn’t play well

The hallmark of an elite team is they win, even when they don’t play well or even when they’re outplayed. We’re in that category.

I think this is true... you literally need to give them space or they will kill you down field... but tre was about 15 yards away on multiple occasions not sure if that is speed or cutting ability... I am hoping he is still recovering and his ability to react will get better.

Yea agree. We have always been a decent 3rd down defence with the odd big breakdown. Until the last two years. And it doesn't look much better yet.

agree. It’s such a weird feeling!

Cook looks amazing this year and imo is having his best stretch as a pro. His short yardage running and wiggle is actually crazy this year. You watch some Cook plays from 2022 and he looks like 2 different players. Don't look now, but he's leading the league in rushing. Subject to change when everyone else gets a third game

Excellent point It almost feels like they are very aware of that as well. They had a couple of play calls last night that had me screaming. At the same time, it is partially because if they don’t make a mistake, Miami can’t keep trading punches with them. That’s what I think the Bills believe.

I hope that someone starts a thread like this after every game, I just can't promise it will be me.

And Tua admitted he can only do "half" of what Josh can.

Maxwell Hairston, perhaps?

Is that the first time you have ever used capriciously in a sentence? They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. WRONG. Kudos to you for spelling it correctly as well. Very impressive. Not impressive - the rest of the post. More overwrought dramatics. Sad.

Jackson Hawes has added such an interesting element to this team. Candidly, I didn’t know much about him when they took him other than he was a great blocking TE. You could see the vision though with the pick. He’s basically replaced Alec Anderson and done so in a manner that keeps the option to throw out there. He has been a fantastic addition so far.
