Success

Super Bowl teams are easier to identify in December than in October. The Bills played a great game yesterday. TN played better (and got a few more breaks). There are no good losses, but I think that is one that will benefit them in the long run.

We have a great HC. He takes very calculated risks - he's not rash when he makes a gutsy call. And he is not conservative - I rarely if ever see him have a "play not to lose" mentality.

I can't argue that the running game is not a glaring need. Both Moss & Singletary are great #2 backs. We don't have that 30-carry a game guy. We have more of a running game than we did last year, but obviously, when we have 3rd or 4th & short, it's a liability.

Bad news, but not a bad time for it to happen. We have the bye and a relatively easy schedule coming up. Hopefully it heals quick.

I mean, who wanted to be crowned in October? We're still in great shape. This team will still be a top contender. Not sure if they get the bye, but they'll be right there & will have a chance to.

I know what you're saying & agree - but were they really happy? After they were, but if I was a Titans fan, that play would have been terrifying...

I haven't even checked. The mere idea that anyone could be blaming Allen is preposterous. That 3rd down run? That dude will ALWAYS be my QB. Legend.

TN is really asserting themselves as a nemesis. Kind of fun, in a way. Rivalries are cool, especially when you truly can't stand the other team.

That kind of thing can be debated forever. I get the opposite view. But if you asked me the basic question, "would you rather have a coach who goes for the win, or goes for OT," and I didn't know anything else, I'd take the former every time.

Yeah - but we have seen how this team responds.

The best loss I've ever experienced. You play to win the game. I would like to congratulate coach McDermott for not retreating into a shell, and for showing that this team is all in.

I have always associated that with championship teams. It would be cool to see the Bills do it here.

If we're going to have a different file for every halftime, this would be filed under "I'll take that."

Wake-up call for the staff. Too conservative the last 2 times in the redzone. Just drive & score. Every time.

I hope we're still airing it out when it's 38-0.

Oh, it is ON now. That was pointed.

I'm kind of enjoying ticked off, sad Vrabel.....

Our defense is going to be what makes the difference this year.

We finally get a make-up call for the MCM...

Let's just take a moment to appreciate the Allen-era expectation of winning pretty much every game. To contrast for the younger fans, 10 years ago, it went something like "if we can get a fumble or 2, and hold them to field goals, and just have a chance at the end..."

I did once. It's pretty much like you would think it would be.

I was ON the Tuel Train. All in. I can only smile now. It really does make one appreciate the good times.

Buffalo wings are obviously the best - but Nashville hot chicken is really good. That's all I'll grant TN.

It was a forward pass.

Oh, I agree - and the "worry" comment wasn't directed at your post. I was VERY worried about him when the season started (and started a thread here on that), but I've become less so. It's still extremely early for all of these guys, so these kinds of conversations are premature. But as of today, I'm feeling like he's a typical rookie. He definitely has a skill set that good coaching can utilize.
