NFL Week # 16 - Bills at Bears - post game thread
Billsfan1972 replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Well the Bills got their first int in 6 games. And we can thank Nathan Peterman......😜 -
Opponents' 3rd and long scare anyone else?

Keep saying that and you will believe it. -

We agree it was an okay performance, which is what we are saying every week, ok not great. This is a great tram -

Billsfan1972 replied to The Red King's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'm consistent. If you want to call Brissett a great qb ok. I don't and they were beaten handily the prior week vs. Miami and while Buffalo won it was an okay effort and not great. NE we know is terrible offensively and was again a nice win, but few came away saying "The Bills are back". It was as said a good win, but no statement. BTW this thread is about 3rd and long and I agreed it is a situation especially as the QB's they play in the playoffs will be a lot more better and dangerous. -
OLine/Unforced Error All 22 Review - Bills/Dolphins Wk 14

Great review. Do you have one for the NE game? I got eviscerated for saying they looked bad and the drops that game and for starting a thread. -

Wow rhey beat Jacobi Brissett. Talk about a statement win 🤣 -

And again when was the last time the Bills dominated? They've won, (please remind us that they are 11-3 always witty and smart). The New England game was okay, but NE is a dysfunctional offense and the Bills sputtered there at times too. Great teams have dominating wins The Bills did weeks 1-2 & against Pitt, that's all. -

And what does that have to do with the thread? Another Post about 11-3 a d how close the Bills are to 14-0. We know.... we know.... -

And that's the problem here. Debate and conversation often becomes the stupid 11-3 comments as they think they are intellectually superior by saying that. We all know the Bills are 11-3. Very simply the Minny and NYJ games were lost because they converted on 3rd and long or on 4th down and this was Zach Wilson and sorry the fraud that is Kirk Cousins. The Bills have faced two elite qbs this year in Mahomes and Jackson and Miami and Detroit scored plenty on them (remember Tua was concussed vs. Buffalo and the Bills had the ball 40 minutes). -
Bad conditions and really did well. Jets defense was good, but I'd like to think Buffalo's is better.
-
And again Wilson beat the Bills with time consuming drives and clutch 3rd/4th down plays. And the Jets vaunted defense was in bad conditions exposed by Jax.

I was talking about SF getting torched by KC......Sheez!!!! Boy you miss the point..... Five wins have been against Cleve, NYJ, Mia, Det & NE. Only Det and Mia are decent offences and the defence didn't look particularly good against either. NE, NYJ and Cleveland all are bad Offences. Great teams yes have some games that are laughers and the Bills haven't had a dominating performance since Pitt. All other SB contenders have. What's funny is that Cincy looked terrible against TB, but people will see they scored 34 straight and was a lopsided victory by the end. -

But if they only won three more close ones. They've been much better this year. Regardless they stunk last year. -

Only Allen has had game winning drives I thought!!! -

Billsfan1972 replied to The Red King's topic in The Stadium Wall
And we know how they did vs. the #1 offense. I try and be levelheaded and fair, but regardless there are concerns. As good as the Bills opposition has been (record wise), the last 5 games though wins we've seen issues, which is what this board is for. Teams will convert 3rd downs, but the #4 DVOA Defense is not as successful as that # shows on third or fourth downs. And while 11-3, been a long time since a thorough beatdown/convincing victory. -
MVP; Hurts / Allen / Mahomes by the numbers...
Billsfan1972 replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall
He does throw a lot, the team just is not that successful. -

Get him the ball and figure out some simple plays that work. Yes it is obvious he isn't happy when plays aren't called for him. -

Billsfan1972 replied to The Red King's topic in The Stadium Wall
Already posted the link on another site. So many stats and here is 3rd & 4th down defense. Teams go for it more vs. the Bills then anyone and converting way too much (particularly of late). Doesn't give distance though. Seems the 3rd & 4th and 1-2 yards they do better then longer though. My issue is these long drives where they are converting multiple third downs (or fourth). https://nflpickwatch.com/nfl/stats/teams/defense/down -

Billsfan1972 replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall
I cared at the beginning of the season, especially when Lamar was being talked above him, but couldn't care less now. I am here saying that I think the Minny game and the two Jet games really will be the deciding factor (as voters really don't factor in weather either). -

Billsfan1972 replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall
Dallas is playing for pride and little else as they will be the #1 WC team. Philly doesn't want injuries. Wouldn't put too much stock in the QBs this game. Allen is a long shot, but who cares Buffalo fans know who they have. -

Billsfan1972 replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think you are being tough on Hurts, but when I see highlights (vs. every game Allen plays), what I see are receivers running wide open, runs often where it is like the sea parting (last weeks TD run vs. Chicago was a 25 yard walk into the end zone) and the one thing we never see with Allen is receivers winning battles and making that difficult catch. Allen, outside Diggs, I can think of 3-4 great catches this year. -
So, reading the board, we lost again. 3-11. Sigh.
Billsfan1972 replied to ChicagoRic's topic in The Stadium Wall
Who said I'm doom & gloom? I'm not at all. Just because I don't come here & post how wonderful everything is? Actually I am positive, just will post concerns. This team was the SB favourites (and still are). https://www.oddsshark.com/nfl/super-bowl/futures #1 Seed still important, however not crucial. The issue continues to be that the Bills haven't had a dominating win since Pittsburgh (and yes I expected more). The positives are they have won close games & they have not had turnovers on offense (but yes scared of Fumbles, blind side hits on Allen and the dreaded tip int). -

And if MacKenzie runs forward and goes down with 17 seconds, the Bills spike it and have a shot at a long field goal of 58 yards. -

Another clickbait title thread. Searching for positive responses and emojis. And again 80%+ of people agree with the sentiment. That is the Stadium Wall. Very few post scathing, negative posts and threads. Mostly people have questions about certain things that are happening with the Bills. People seem to forget that this was the Super Bowl favourite beginning the year. Like it or not they've not blown out a team since Pitt, or had a great performance since the KC game. The Bettors certainly think more of the Bills because they're lousy against the spread this year (yes so has KC). Guess what? We all know they are 11 and 3. But there's that nagging thought that if they were 12-2, the number one seed would pretty much be locked up and they'd be preparing for the playoffs. Right now without the benefit of a convincing victory in a long while you look around AFC and you see a lot of teams that can present them a lot of problems come the playoffs. -

You mean another pass that just once you want to see a Bill make a play on. Wasn't an easy catch, but certainly catchable. Again you're right about the Allen int, but those were passes he didn't miss until the second half this year. I like Mahomes and yes some blame belongs to him, but still was a great int. These were the plays the Bills made early in season.
