When the int. happened, Diggs went out of his way to not dislodge the ball from the defender. He got as far away from play as he could. It was a bit odd. He was playing it as if he were a defender trying not to get a PI call.

....Until they blow it to a very beatable Chargers team - then the 'Fire McDermott' chants will rise to a new level. 😜
I do agree. It feels different since Dorsey's dismissal.
Is it because Dorsey's offense was contributing to losses, the firing just a wake-up call to everyone, or is Brady that much better?
Are the defensive reserves who've taken the place of injured starters just finding their footing? Are player rallying around McDermott after the lambasting he received from that writer? Is it a combination of all these things?
For whatever reason, it does feel different.
If not for a few mishaps and an amazing 59 yard field goal in less than ideal conditions in the Eagles game, the Bills could be 4-0 since Brady took the reigns. Along the way, defeating the super bowl winner in their yard, playing solid against a defending conference champion (again, on their home turf), and beating the snot out of 'America's Team' - a serious contender for to reach this year's super bowl.
The litmus test will be if they can keep it going against inferior opponents. Do they only rise to the level of the teams they're facing?
If they stumble against the Chargers, it will tell me it was all just an illusion. If they continue on the current path, they could be writing a great overcoming adversity, feel-good comeback story.
Go Bills!
I think we have an extremely lazy (entitled?) team that doesn’t start playing until they absolutely have to. I wouldn’t be surprised one bit if we drop another game and make it more difficult to get in.
This isn’t the first time we’ve stunk up the regular season and looked like a completely different team late. Is that McD’s fault? Yeah, I’d say so. I think he’s extremely arrogant and holds things back until the playoffs.
My fear is that we might’ve blown our wad vs. Dallas.

I’ve been streaming since 1999. It’s come a long way since. Lol

I can't think of a more odious outcome than to lose out to Denver for a playoff spot. That would take the 12 man fiasco to a higher level.
It felt that way when it happened so it wouldn’t surprise me one bit.

Jags blowing 2 down the stretch is pretty unlikely but it would be a huge boost to our wildcard odds too…losing to the bucs would really make them sweat out those last two games. Jags losing two would get us from coin flip at best with 10 wins to very likely in with 10 wins
They look uncharacteristically shaky all of a sudden. Could happen.

If you have negative ***** to say after this game you are a pathetic fan.
McD and Brady successfully killed our passing game. I hope you’re happy. This team is going nowhere!

We need to move on from McD before the playoffs start.

Well at least Denver lost. That will probably end up being most important

He was wide open but Flacco couldn’t get it there fast enough.

Bears just blew it.

It's too late for that. They need help. Winning out is far from a guarantee.
Denver and a Browns loss is really all you can ask for in 1 week. Fine with me.

Edmunds with a pick 6!

Browns game is pretty good. The league needs to drug test Flacco. He’s better than ever.

SF has looked like a super team at this point of the season for the last 5 years. They crumble against elite QBs.
93? we had no shot either year against Dallas and were never going to beat the Redskins after their nearly perfect season. You knew by week 5 that Washington was winning the SB.

I think we win or McDermott is done.
7 and 7 is the nail in the coffin
I think it would depend on how we lost.

Wow. If we get in and can’t beat the Bengals with a backup QB we’ve got bigger issues. IMO, just get in and the Bills can play with anyone.
Both coaches dominate McD. We want to avoid that. Both teams shut down our offense with relative ease.

Yeah true. We can beat them for sure. Just weird that they have had our number both times in London.
I want no part of jags or bengals like you said. Anyone but them.

Riiiiiiiight. Beane and the rest of the Front Office aren't looking at dead cap hits and trade value and last year's grading and anything like that.
They're making their decisions just based on which players the fans like. 🙄
If you believe in buy low, sell high (we don’t) then 1/3 of our roster has been here 1-2 years too long. There’s no trade value for any of our older players. That’s why you don’t operate like that. Those are mistakes made by a GM. Fan shock/anger absolutely factors into those decisions in a small city like Buffalo.
Perfect example is White. He should’ve been traded before he even got injured, like well before, when he was at peak value. He was already at his ceiling. We missed badly on that one and you do that a few times and there’s your difference in staying good and not staying good for long.
Theres people on Reddit and probably here too that want/expect Diggs to play here two more full seasons. lol.

He’s done as a Bill after this year. Not saying I do or don’t want that to happen, it just is what it is, I don’t see him back here, I think he gets his way and goes to Dallas with his brother and Jerruh likely over pays us in the process.
That being said, hopefully Beane works some magic, clears lots of bloated cap numbers, and finds a way to land Waddle and Higgins next year so Josh can win multiple superbowls regardless of clappy on the sidelines…
He should be gone next year but we always hold onto players that fans like too long and it hurts the team. I would like to see the back half of Josh’s career with some fresh guys.

Why is it so hard for fans to admit reality?

My only issues yesterday were line play and the obvious bad RB play throughout. When the OL doesn’t dominate, we’re a pretty bad team.
i didn’t love the time management at the end. I’d much rather have a TD, not put the whole season on your kicker, and not put your defense in a position where a FG wins.
