Sorry my mistake , those stats were for interims 1st game. I failed to include that .

I know it has to be a certain amount of days before the game , not sure how many. Someone will chime in I’m sure. Detour would probably be worth it if necessary!

The game is definitely eligible to be flexed to Saturday. The Bills have played a couple of these Saturday games in the past and I wouldn’t be shocked to see it in the prime time Sat slot. Where it ends up likely will depend on the playoff implications.

To be fair, they were already auditioning for jobs. Staley was dead man walking as HC.

A side note to the game for sure , but whoever chose the music for the commercial transitions for todays telecast on Fox gets an A+ from me. It was great the whole game.

Collinsworth is such a dill weed

Do we want JAX or BAL tonight ?

Interims are 15-12 straight up since 2010. Don’t know how many of those were home vs away but hardly overwhelming.

Hope the Chargers saved some of their suckitude for Saturday !

But maybe in this one, it sent a message Hope the Chargers saved some of their suckitude for Saturday !

They may not need to, but they need to keep playing like they do.

Imagine the irony if the Bills made the big show in a year when everyone shoveled dirt on ‘em !

The main similarity to the 2021 team is they were also 7-6 at this point. So it’s possible the Bills could go on a run here. Josh and the offense are the meal ticket. This defense is just not as reliable as the 2021 squad.

Enough NFL rules benefit the offense. The rule is fine and shouldn’t be changed. The point of football is to move the football across the gridiron and eventually across the opposing goal line. If you happen to lose possession before the goal line and the ball goes out of bounds you’re in luck - possession goes to the offense. If you lose possession and neither score nor lose it before the goal line is reached ( “ through “ the opposing end zone ) your possession ends. Makes perfect sense . Don’t like it ? It’s simple -don’t fumble.

We stopped scoring on almost every drive, getting tons of first downs and going for it if we came up short in no man’s land. 3 and outs were almost unheard of.

Nothing ironic about it. The Bills put themselves in this spot by losing games to teams they shouldn’t - Pats, Denver , Jets. The Dolphins, up until their meltdown vs TEN had handled the lesser teams consistently. The Bills have a shot at the division now, but very little margin for error. The Fish have a tough schedule , but can afford a couple losses. Should be interesting down the stretch.

Eh , no. Now, the mob would be out in full force calling for the offending player to be cut immediately etc. The coaching staff would also be skewered for allowing the players to be undisciplined- heck there would be calls for the GM to be fired. Uncalled penalties would also be a topic, but the penalty itself is plain as day. He may as well have been lined up alongside Miller. Easy call, and the great Mahomes had 3 more tries after the penalty to get a first down.

Lol okay fair enough. Whatever approach we take as fans, the one thing that matters is that the Bills keep winning.

Exactly. Since when does the opponent making errors in execution negatively impact your win ? It’s often the difference between victory and defeat.

The fan base looking ahead at implications has absolutely zero impact on how the Bills perform vs Dallas on Sunday.

How bad was it, though? The replay showed he had an open receiver in front of a defender. Now, Josh never saw the intercepting player lurking to the side and that’s definitely on him. Mahomes , on the other hand tried to complete a pass through Epenesa , who was right in his face. The ball was predictably batted up by AJ, who also came down with the INT. You probably won’t hear much about that play, though.

No. Moving on….

Usually they will .. IF the WR looks over at them to check. Toney never did this and was so far offside it was ridiculous. Had to be called , but if he looked over they likely would have let him know

Not quite. The potential is there but it doesn’t look like the Bills will unite hold up their end of the deal. It’s worked out the way it has ( all games at KC) because the Bills and Chiefs finished in the same respective place in their divisions. It’s not looking too likely that the Chiefs and Bills will do this in 2023 ( it could still happen just doesn’t seem likely). That would currently mean the Bills wouldn’t play the Chiefs in 2024 and would get Denver instead. Still 4 games to go, so this could change.

Hahahahaha, it wouldn’t surprise me.
