Yeah I have heard that and for general road games in the US that probably makes a lot of sense. However when players cannot focus you get what the Bills had today in abundance, bad penalties, drops, and overall lackluster play. Anyway, on to the next game and maybe the team acts differently next time if they believe they made a mistake this time.

Maybe it should. If anything jet lag would affect athletes much more than it would me.

Not my (non athletic) experience. Plus you could see the Bills were just plain off, which is how jet lag manifests itself, versus the Jags who were there for over a week. IMO the "standard protocol" should be looked at hard. But I'm no high priced NFL consultant.

If there was, it is on the Bills. The stadium was rocking like a home game. The Bills bonehead front office blew that game as much as anyone for not going over several days earlier than they did.

I didn't see any of the presser, too ill. Did anyone ask McD why he called that first time out?

They could have gone over any time they wanted. These players are only used to cali jet lag which is nothing. I travel a lot to europe and for example if you make the mistake of sleeping on the plane it will take 2-3 days before you are right. Assuming that played into it, which is real likely it did at least some, that's on the Bills.

The good news is, if we can see that, then the coaching staff has been aware for some time. We'll see in a week what that came up with to deal with it.

Both teams have shown they can beat bad teams. This game should should be a gut check for both teams. I'm glad its in Buffalo.

I'd love to see the math that added up to nearly $2B a week.

FFS, Allen SUCKED. Everyone knows it, including him. He is not some little sissy that is going to take his ball and go elsewhere because people state the obvious. Get over it and move on.

The tweet shows this. It cites a reference but without the document who knows what that reference is.

They won last night.

Or none! Wild season, should be a wild ride!

Yeah ABC has it. So 13 in Rochester. Agreed. I can't even watch sports in SD with a low framerate now after having such great quality for several years. I turned into such a B word that way

Not sure I'd call KC losing by a point to a team that should be decent this year getting wrecked. But Cinci ... um ... yeah I have no freaking idea what to expect tomorrow night other than it should be a lot of fun to watch. Either team could win by 20 or lose by 20 ... or by 1

Or that I agreed with!

Even though this is just a typical fun get the homer juices flowing thread, I find it interesting how many so easily and completely believe Josh >>> Tua.

Not uncommon for teams with defense minded head coaches to see the D get more love off season, and show during the season. But they did put some effort into the line this past off season. Hopefully they just need more time together.

You were the smart one. Most of them probably not if they want to keep their jobs. But the fans/press sure can.

1) The Bills 1's need to stop reading the Buffalo press about how great they are and read some national press, some of which has them at 2nd or even 3rd in a stacked AFCE. 2) McD seems like the kind of coach that can use that kind of crap-fest to the teams advantage. First get together start off with "You guys Fing sucked out there! If anyone thinks their spot on this roster is guaranteed, they better get their head out of their a$$ pretty damn quick!" ... and then get rude. Bonus: Impressed with non-Josh Allen so far.

Probably figure they aren't going to do any better so double down and go for it. Plus remember, it's not just about a superbowl. It's about making money. And this current team puts asses in the seats, even these considerably more expensive ones.

Missed most of last season with a concussion. That's a long time for a concussion, but roll the dice with a 1 year contract 👌

Enjoy even these higher prices because PSLs are on the horizon baby. Pay for the ability to pay for season tickets. Whoever thought of that first, and realized that NFL fans would actually pay for the right to pay more, is a freaking genius.

Utter BS. They are professional athletes with a week between games to get un-emotionally-drained. Plus this wasn't some meaningless game, if was the freaking playoffs ... AT HOME for gods sake. The Bengals out GM'd (players), coached, and played the Bills and as much is it may sting, it's really as simple as that. Making or accepting excuses isn't going to help. I'm not a "fire everyone" person, but the Bills organization needs to recognize the situation before it can be corrected.

This is the stadium wall, not just playoff losses, but any losses
