My bold idea was as soon as the Bills lost the coin toss in OT in the 13 seconds game vs KC that the Bills defense was so bad (which meant we would inevitably lose (and we did)) that McD should have done the balls out call of all time which was kicking an onside kick to start overtime. They never would have expected us to do it and if successful we win the game. I'm not sure if that would be even possible/legal with today's onside kick rules.

Very true, but heres one more scary observation, Our defense is arguably worse, older and more injury riddled than that playoff game at the moment. McD has occasionally shown that he has learned from experience against certain teams (KC at least in the regular season) but has he learned to neutralize Burrow and his strengths? The last game vs the Bengals in November 2023, we did slightly better but had the same problems as the playoff game.

I'm terrified that Burrow will be carving our defense with quick passes just like he did in the previous 3 games vs us. Our soft zone will not get close to these receivers and we wont get to him in time with our pass rush. In addition to your point, when we lost to Burrow in the playoffs, the weather wasnt the best in Buffalo and the field was icy but it was Burrow and the Bengals that excelled and we looked completely unprepared for the conditions (in addition to the Bengals).

Yes and they beat the Pats last time so it was a case of pick your poison!!

Philly fans are awful across the board. They turned on their team on Friday and booed them throughout the game. They are the nastiest fan base and its a travesty of karma that they won a SB with Hurts in the first place!

This is exactly it. The inconsistency is maddening. But what is that down to? Changes in personnel due to injuries or erratic coaching?

$11 a hot dog and $21 for a Molson tall boy. How can you lose??

Its all about actually tackling Maye this time. Last time he managed to evade our bumbling tackling to throw several clutch completions which of course were augmented by even more terrible tackling. I also think the Bills were completely unprepared and poorly motivated for that game. They assumed that they would win just by showing up and never seemed to really believe that they would lose. As seen in the Steelers game, sometimes this team needs to get mad to gear down and focus.

"Help me Jesus! Help me Jewish God! Help me Allah! AAAAAHHH! Help me Tom Cruise!"

I cannot believe that Maye can last the season. He slips away from pressure so often but one of these days his luck is going to run out and he is going get hammered.

They atrophied and fell off.

Unleash the Jameis!!

A conspiracy of stupidity and silence from the broadcast crew as well.

I thought I heard that wrong too. WTH is he talking about?

More great officiating. A full on helmet to helmet hit but no flag.
