Lol at some of you whining and b itching about what they wear.
If you think what uni an nfl team wears doesn't matter then you need an IQ test.
You need a sense of identity in sports. The teams cant just swap colours.

Awful
Best uniform set in the league. The reds are awful
I do agree.
There's such a trend to play in the opposite colours, to do the opposite thing these days. The Bills are a BLUE team, not red.
The red is a patriots uniform.

I agree. Why is Kim Pegula choosing that the bills play in red?
Before you know it the reds the home uni. Absurd.

Ravens still being aggressive there. I’m sure McD would have been happy with running 3 times and kicking the FG
That's what I was thinking.

Haha Jackson 5!

I wonder if the make fun of Roman's moustache like Daboll's
The stache only goes on when they're in the booth. When they come out, no stache.

There's something CHOCLATEY about this Uni matchup.

All these Monday night football games in this ***** a** LA stadium with these ***** a** Rams UNIS. If I was a St Louis fan I'd be hurling at my TV.

I think if Daboll was in the booth from the beginning of the year we'd be talking about Josh in the MVP discussion. The offense has looked great the past couple of weeks and Josh, while improving each week has looked really great the past 2 weeks in particular.
Brave prediction but Wait and see how he does against these teams coming up. Cowboys, ravens, steelers, patriots.

This kind of behavior I really dislike and is uncalled for once the game is over let it go don't be a jerk. How about go up to the guy shake his hand and say have a happy Thanksgiving or something. Geeeez
His attitude and energy really comes across in the game though. I think it must be hard to just turn off after the game.

It's not very often the Bills play a game where you never feel worried about a loss from the moment of kick off. The Bills did that twice in consecutive weeks in a game where they always seemed in control. So much in control, I was a little annoyed when they called a time-out to allow 3 points, preventing the shutout. I was that confident in our guys that they wouldn't have scored against without it. With that being said....
1 - Gore - The future HOFer was a change of pace back today, and did well doing it. When he finally came into the game, he was a battering ram up the middle, just punishing a Broncos defense that was already on the field a lot. You had to laugh at the Billsy moment of Gore losing yards on the first play he could have eclipsed the #3 spot, but he put the record away and then some, a few plays later. I just want to acknowledge how rare this accomplishment is in a league where running backs are a throw-away position and careers end as players fade out in free agency. Gore has bounced around from team to team, finding productivity and bringing leadership. Every single week I read an article about Gore getting other players involved and being a phenomenal role model. As the media was interviewing Singletary post game, asking him what it was like playing along side Gore, Gore overheard them and told the media to instead ask Singletary about getting his first 10 yard game as that's a big deal for the rookie. Pure class and I'm glad he got the record while playing for the Bills.
2 - Singletary - If you had any questions about the rookie's ability to be a feature back, that was put to bed today. The kid carried early, and he carried often. He had some runs where he showed patience behind the line, waiting for holes to open. He had some runs where he initiated contact and took some defenders with him. We were a purely run heavy team today and Singletary was the bell cow. Breaking 100 yards for the first time in his career against a solid defense is nothing to overlook. He didn't get into the end zone or light up the fantasy rankings, but today was the most impressive game for his rookie season and really showed us a glimpse of what this rushing offense can look like.
In addition, as many of us wondered how the Bills would handle Von Miller; Singletary had quite a few plays where he helped chip Von as he left the backfield, giving Allen that little extra bit of time. Just another great attribute of this promising rookie.
3 - Tre White - Did anyone ball out harder that White today? And I'm saying this after a game where we only gave up 3 points and multiple defenders had big plays. Tre was EVERYWHERE. I say that because he could've easily had two additional interceptions on top of the stellar over the shoulder catch he had in the redzone. If he wasn't completely shutting down Sutton, he has knocking balls loose, breaking on flat routes to knock balls free, and just overall making Brandon Allen if he was sweating a little down there or if he was having an accident. Tre is playing at an absolute elite level this season and is on his way to earning a massive payday. We will definitely need him next week as go up against a team with the deepest receiving core we've played all season.
4 - "That's a heck of a win man and this is one heck of a team baby. Now listen, one game and we are 1-0. That's the goal every week and keep this in perspective. Now hit the reset button. I'm so proud of you guys."
5 - Allen - Josh through an interception and I could not have cared any less. The ball came out of his hands weird and just sailed on him. Interceptions are going to happen, but not for Josh in the past few games and this wasn't a poor decision. This was a play that randomly will happen and the Josh did what makes most of us love him, not care about it going forward. Josh played fantastic to me today. I'd go so far as to say it might have been a better performance than last week. Yes, he got a big help by having the defense need to respect our running attack, but Allen made some amazing throws today that many have been asking to see. And yes, he hit a BEAUTIFUL deep ball to Smoke which was deliciously over Harris' head. Brown was taken away from Allen today and it didn't slow him down at all. Beasley finally had a game where he was a focal point and responded in spades. His TD pass to Beasley was one I hope other teams take note of and think twice when sending zero blitzes against Allen.
I can tell I'm rambling here a little so here's the point. Allen showed the accuracy, ability to read defenses and find the right match-ups, and scramble (3rd and long was amazing) in ways that make you realize we have a guy that can literally do anything against anyone. Today checked all the boxes for me and he did it against a top 5 defense. Keep it coming Josh.
6 - Defensive Line - If you were told a defensive line was going to have a solid day today, I think many would've assumed Josh would've been running for his life. Quite the opposite as Shaq came out of his coma and Eddie had his first real sack today. Both guys had great days and seemed to have their way with the Broncos offensive line any time they made the choice to take them on one on one. Brandon Allen was sacked, knocked down, and overall off his mark due to the pressure. There's a stat out there that it's the most sacks for the Bills in two games since sometime (Sorry, I'm not looking it up). Credit to McD for continue to run stunt blitzes and give different looks. I really think he's finding ways to put these guys in a position to win.
7 - Penalties - The only negative note I have about today's game was the insane amount of holding penalties that knocked us out of scoring position. The holding call at the Broncos 1 yard was a killer. More than that, we had multiple calls (none against Lee) that tried to slow the game down. More frustrating was that the camera's never showed the replays. There was one play where the commentators said they couldn't see why a hold was called and the players seemed frustrated. The penalties kept quite a few more points off the board and absolutely killed a drive right before half. I hope to hear more about these as people review the film and I hope they get this cleaned up as we have teams who will take better advantage of this going forward.
8 - Special Teams - Speaking of best games of the season. Bojo and Roberts were absolutely huge today. They gave us great field position all day and pinned the Broncos inside the 20 on quite a few plays. These guys either took a beating or were unheard of until recently, but you can put this victory on these guys as much as anyone. I'm happy to see this unit get some love and come together at a crucial time in this season. We might even be at the point where we can consider them a strength and, like I said before, we are going to need them coming soon.
9 - Halftime Adjustments - If there's one thing I've really banged the drum for this season, it's how flat we look after halftime on offense and lack of overall adjustments. Not only did our defense step it up a notch and hold Brandon to -4 yards through the 3rd quarter, but we scored a touchdown immediately after coming out of the tunnel. The teams ability to make these adjustments is a major check on the list of things great teams do. I think the Broncos only had 3 plays of over 10 yards in this game, and only one of them came in the second half on a broken tackle run by Lindsay, which was completely inconsequential. Just great job.
10 - Execution - Hearing McClappy talk about the teams opportunities mainly coming from lack of execution has always seemed like a blow off response in his dry post-game press conferences. As the Bills have now put two back to back solid games, I can now see what he meant. Yes, the coaches have done a great job making tweaks to their scheme. But more importantly, you can see that they are still relatively running the same type of plays, but the the players are executing at a much higher level. I almost want to throw up saying it, but it makes sense now and I think we are finally seeing the team that McD envisioned for us. I feel as confident in this team as I have in the past few years. It's not about the record of the teams we've played against, it's about how we've put them away and executed the plays called on the field. The defense is communicating well, Allen is finding the right reads, we can run hurry up or ground and pound. McD has Frazier and Daboll in the right spots and this team is playing like a family. I don't know how the next 3 games will go, but I expect to see a competitive team out there playing their style of football.
Bonus - Special Credit needs to go to our offensive line today. Ford held his own today against Von. Feliciano held his own after taking over for Morse. Just a great game for these guys in both protected Josh and opening holes for Singletary. The 400 yards of offense we had today started and stopped with them.
*Around the League
- I watched Brady throw a 22 yard "bomb" to Edelman. He had to #### his arm back and really let it fly. It's the first time I've ever laughed at Brady as I realized how hard that throw was for him when Allen would've thrown that with a flick of his wrist
- On 3rd and 6 on their last drive, Brees hit Thomas on a fade route. The same exact play we missed against the Browns. Since we missed it, I feel like I'm seeing that same play executed all over the league in similar situations.
-Saints had a PI call overturned against them. Someone might want to follow Sean around as he may need an alibi
**LAMP! - I'm sorry, but I have to say this on here. I took a bunch of crap for suggesting the Bills let Foster run a jet sweep or reverse. Man did I forget how fast that kid can be. I mean, wow. With his size and speed, he put us in great field position and reminded many of us what a talent he is if only he can keep it all together. I was bummed to see him pull up lame after his catch and run. I hope he gets healthy.
Go Bills!
Good Post.
It will be interesting to see if, at 8-3, this team is getting better.

Part of being an effective GM also involves cutting the right people: next year Kroft, Gore, DiMarco and Murphy should not be on this team. I agree 100% that he was masterful in upgrading our OL. I still think OL is the most important position on a football team--it protects your QB (even a HOF QB can look very average when he is under pressure), opens up holes for the run game, and by controlling the clock it wears down the opposing defense while keeping your defense fresh. That's why I think we have very little chance to beat the Cowboys Thursday: their OL can dominate, and I think they will be motivated coming off a loss.
It will be interesting to see which bills turns up in that game. If the performance is there I think there's a chance

Number 1 offence looking crappy on that final drive.

Moved the ball well with a couple of throws.

Dak has three timeouts

Let's see what dallas can do
Bills 0-2 vs. teams who are under intense internal and outside pressure

I think this is a valid point because the bills have used motivation themselves before games. (in the Sullivan thread it mentions that it got leaked that they were using motivation for Allen regarding shurmurs comments against the Giants)
Point is can the bills at 8-3 match the cowboys intensity coming off a loss and the owners comments.
