Success

Prayers sent. Hope is the best of things - as Bills fans, and in life.

Should have listened to Marv Levy - don't be dumb, don't be dirty.

I'm glad they got the TD - but I have no idea why they didn't overturn that previous call.

I was sooooo hoping we'd get THIS Bosa. He has added a lot to this defense - and to the attitude of the team. He brings great energy.

Mahomes ain't as scary as he used to be.

It's a testament to how spoiled I am now that the excitement from regular season wins that are NOT against KC or Baltimore wear off fairly quickly. I remember back in the day, any win could carry my mood for a week.

And let's not forget that he likely cost Golden State another title with his stupid, dirty penalty against Lebron.

He is SUCH a buffoon. He thinks he's some kind of clutch champ because he was along for the ride with truly great players. We wouldn't know his name if he had been on an average team.

Anyone catch Dramond Green's comments about Josh? That guy is such a fool.

On the 2-point conversion point: clearly, we need more creative play designs there. That was really disappointing to me. Those looked like regular plays that we run in low-leverage situations. Collinsworth was even saying on that last one how he expected the Bills to pull out something that teams practice every day for that situation & that was more unexpected, but it ended up just being an out to Coleman. It's hard to gauge Brady as an OC in general, just because he has Allen and Allen makes just about everything work. But Brady needs to work on those 2-point situations, imo.

The way I see it, Bishop is probably the most promising S on the roster right now. He had a decent enough game and is likely to improve throughout this season. Rapp just looked slow, and he's likely to NOT improve this season. He might even get slower. He's fine as a backup, but he'll be a weak link as a starter. We need a SS.

I'm still a bit mystified by why we weren't in on Peppers. I get sticking with Bishop, but Rapp now looks like he is more backup quality. It's scary to think about that kind of lack of speed out there, even at the SS position. I'm sure we'll look like world beaters against some of the middlin' teams that are coming up, but that will be a mirage. Come playoff time, I'm deeply concerned about this D not being able to get stops. Josh can do this kind of thing & overcome that - but to ask that out of 3 or 4 games in a row would be too much & unrealistic.

I'm so weird. I still get nervous watching replays of that kick because of how close Hamilton got to blocking it.

Watching from home, one of the more fun parts was right after the fumble - the crowd just went nuts. It felt like such a quiet game to that point, and w/ that one play, everyone there was all in. That really gave it a feeling of "okay, we've got this now."

I noticed that. It was so strange - they showed about 3-4 plays that were almost inconsequential (like Cook picking up 4 yards), but didn't show the pass to Palmer, which was an absolutely huge play in that comeback.

Most of the narrative I heard yesterday was more about the idea that the Ravens choked the game away vs. giving the Bills much credit. There was a lot of "wow" reaction for Allen himself, but the general feeling seemed to be that the Ravens gave it away more than the Bills took it. I know I'm biased - but I really think that's a bogus narrative. Every team in the league would have played it conservative w/ the lead the Ravens had later in the game, and with the way they were dominating. The Henry fumble was uncharacteristic for him - but turnovers are a part of any game. And the 4th & 3 was a 50/50 call. In real time, I was sure they would punt it. It's only in hindsight because they lost that many are 2nd guessing that decision (imo). The Ravens didn't play "bad" at the end. The Bills took advantage of the one mistake - which Ed Oliver caused - and otherwise made big play after big play in that 4th quarter to steal that win. We won that game. The Ravens didn't lose it.

Man, kicking the ball out of bounds was kind of a no brainer there. Time is more important than those few penalty yards.

There must be some sort of training in pro sports for cryptic tweeting.

Glad to hear this. That was really ridiculous.

If you're someone who continually tries to diminish Allen's accomplishments (looking your way, KC fans) - the Ravens lost it. If you're a fan of the game, the Bills dug deep, took advantage of 4th quarter mistakes and pulled out one of the most miraculous comebacks in ages.

On the tipped pass - was it supposed to go to Coleman, or someone else? Either way, no way Knox should have been trying to get to it! Not sure what he was thinking there....

Harrison's hate will always make me smile. I hope he spends these seasons while we're on top gritting his teeth down to the gums.

Looking at online reactions, there is basically universal praise for the game & for Allen. Except online Chiefs fans. How is that group still SO salty?

To me, that decision was a no brainer, cramping or no cramping. I don't really get the 2nd guessing. Yes, you have to respect Allen's ability to drive the Bills down w/ that amount of time left, but if you go for it & don't make it, you're just handing the game to the Bills.

I was happy w/ our rush, and our line in general. The defense in general is a concern, though. We should get upgrades with our 1st round pick & 2 acquisitions coming in sometime in October. I'd really like to see us get Peppers or someone else to shore up our safety unit. Our LB's are what they are - but that's largely good. Both Milano & Bernard are fast & play smart, but we do sacrifice size for speed in that position group. And that can hurt us against the Henry's of the world. Good thing there is only one Henry of the world.
