Sorry but can't read all the posts as just too much for me and in a lousy mood. I think I have noted my concerns on past threads and usually shouted down, but many looking more and more correct. Simply the defense is allowing teams to take time off the clock and when Buffalo get's the ball back finally, they are antsy as they have been on the sidelines so long (happened vs. GB too). What was Josh thinking the first int? Was the second miscommunication with Davis? Saw Tom Brady get the pass interference at the goal line and Gabe was mauled on that last play (though hit him in the hands). Was there holding on the first down pass to Diggs? Can't let the Jets offence dominate like they did. Thought the second half vs. GB would be a wake-up and keep saying the Bills (or at least fans) just seem to think they pre-ordained to play in the SB, and wonder if players/coaches too reading their press clippings. Just off the top on my head.....

Eagles are a good, not great team. Not even Vikes fans think they are any good. Doubt if still undefeated they beat Dallas on the road if Dallas is healthy.

Because the Bills will beat them in the SB? I think they will stumble prior, but as a Bills fan there is no way I can call them the best team in the NFL.

And as has been pointed out the Giants metrics show that their 6-2 record is all smoke and mirrors. Great story, good for them, but not a good team yet.

Before the season everyone pointed at what a joke their schedule was, and has played out that way.

Are Bills fans expectations too high????

That post would get me in real trouble. Just take a look when I commented that they left 17 points on the board versus KC and the vitriol.😉 Maybe against Pittsburgh and Tennessee they played really good games. -

And I think I said in the OP, that this is probably a good thing in the long run as I expect a more focused effort Sunday. -
I'm amazed at the # here claiming it hit the turf. My understanding is it can hit the turf if you have control of it and Milano did. To me at the very worst they should have reviewed it and it was a replay they had to watch closely. Not way that call is made in 5-10 seconds. And I say no it does not, Milano's hands are under it.

I love the apologists. Not a single person disagrees. I started a thread to express my opinion (not seeing anything similar). The Bills have had bad stretches this year, but yesterday imo was different and they flat out looked bad the second half. No I did not listen to McD or others, nor have turned on the radio, and won't. Maybe I'm too tired as that second half (at least the 4th quarter) went on forever. I expect (and have said so) all to be corrected, just did not like what I saw. Yes my focus is on Allen and he threw his worst passes of the year yesterday. Overthrew receivers and seemed out of sorts. Just stating an opinion. -

I just said that the second have was a slog. Can say the same about the first half vs. Baltimore, but then they woke up and while probably closer then it should have been, the better team (Bills) won. Like above Davis made some mistakes and that was the first game where Josh threw some horrendous passes. Maybe just complacency, but that by far was just a terrible half both sides of the ball. -
Bills games should become a destination for opposing fans

Tickets to Bills games are already some of the most expensive in the NFL Resale market, so doubt they'll go up too much with a new stadium. https://www.espn.com/nfl/scoreboard/_/week/10/year/2022/seasontype/2 What I'd like is more games I can enjoy not having to wear 14 layers and worrying about 30 mph winds. -

As said the Bills have not played perfect ball at times this season. They trailed Baltimore by 17, were sloppy vs. LA & KC for the first half and somehow let Miami win, but yesterday just felt different. My hope is that this is actually a good thing for them, but just was spurring conversation. -

And the Bills trailed Baltimore by 17, but to me I was never overly concerned. Vs. KC they had 3 points with 2 minutes to go and the ball @ the 2 and again felt okay. Yesterday was different at least to me. -

Nowhere did I say I was worried, just talking about "Expectations". Yesterday was the first game this year I was not happy with. Sure I could complain they could have played better vs. Baltimore (blames it on the weather) and they really screwed up vs. Miami where 19 times out of 20 they win the game under similar circumstances. Yesterday's second half was just bad (and heck Teef agrees!!!😉).
