If Buffalo doesnt win 70-3 then Beane will be beheaded.. yes its that serious

burning all my bills gear in a roman funeral pyre and then setting myself on fire

@Virgilis a man of deep thoughts and few words. When he does speak it comes with great thinking and no emotion. My guess is his recap would be something like this: 1. W T F WAS THAT 2. I hope Josh is ok 3. How did the defense go from holding the Jets to 97 yards on 24 carries to allowing the final drive and being run over 4. Music Lyrics: "All I wanna do is a zoom zoom zoom in your boom boom" 5. McD and crew are consistently bad after the bye and it has been a minor detriment to the teams overall success and goals. Looking at the team outside of the 18/20 seasons (18 they stunk, 20 was a dream) they have a bad period mid season with losses where the team looks unfocused or going through the motions. The ability for the team to go at least 2-1 in the next three is huge for their 1 seed chances assuming Josh misses a game or two. 6. Dorseys scheme was too vertical driven and failed to maximize the Jets middle and flats they left open. Josh had a bad game, but the ability to pressure him with four took away his favorite throws and they failed to adjust and attack the areas given. 7. Damar Hamlin actually had a good game and is quietly turning into a real thing on the back end. 8. The good luck streak of the all blues finally hit a skid here. Back to blue over white sunday. 9. God let Allens elbow be ok 10. If Allen is out Keenum in a revenge game is at least an interesting sub plot to the game.

Thanks appreciated. The way people talk about how baseball had a mythological quality to it is how I grew up with football and I think part of that was the Bills being so good and not winning and the subsequent drought time that made all those good times seem like a distant past. Games like NFL QB Club 99 or Madden had things where you could play as old teams or player or revisit SB matchups. I got hooked big time with that and mixed with the Bills still decent it was an addicting thing while a little mythical too. There is a generation that doesn't understand the Raiders and Washington were both juggernauts basically forever and they wanted to punch you in the teeth every time they played. Really really hardnose teams that had games with bloodbaths. When the Raiders lost* to the Pats in 01 I was beside myself (it was a forward pass), I think that team actually was superior to the following year. Al was like Ralph and both needed to step aside soo much earlier and it cost both of them their last decade plus as owners especially as the league transitioned from a balanced type offense to a spread passing attack that limited what a defense can do.

A lot of fans don't have the time to do this but I agree. If you check out other teams messages boards or even their main media there is more concern then what lets on. Some Ravens fans I interact with on twitter and are generally cool have been near ground zero at points this year especially after they blew a third double digit lead. Now they feel much better and things have rounded into form. Biggest issue right now is Josh's status, losing him for two games could cost them the one see and make the division race razor thing.

Or NEXT NEXT SEASON!

What about Banana's do we trust those...?

I just had a gut

Agreed on the Raiders on Davis. Rich Gannons Raiders were a favorite of mine for a while and up and through that time you knew what you were getting with the Raiders. His son cannot replace Al's footsteps, but the team itself seems rudderless again as Gruden was the driving force and he is gone.

They turned the ball over three times in the Vikings redzone and had a few other drives fail midfield. Classic drought Bills offense.

I was at this game row 10 of the endzone where Sammy caught the TD. You could see the moment he broke to the corner he had the TD as long as he caught as the CB got burned bad. Orton made a superb throw on that pass. The game itself was maddening as the Bills allowed MIN to hang around wayyy too much and Bridgewater as a rookie flashed some real potential. I have always wonder how his career would've went if his knee never got busted as he look pretty good. By the way Scott Chandler made a huge catch on 4th down to keep the drive alive.

I personally walked 35 puppies!

Glad to see you really care about the team! lol

He is in his 6th season and I tend to agree his ceiling is what we have seen the last four years which can be as high as 2020 with a little luck and a QB being perfect to 2019 where they are weaker on offense but the defense keeps them alive. At some point breakthrough is going to have to happen and with the division improving that will be only tougher. You only move on if you do think you have a coach who can be equal or better, but it is truly concerning that the team consistently has a mid season let down like this and when the margin for being the best team is razor thin. Lots of season to play and they do control their own destiny, but this is not the first time this has happened either. The question no longer is whether they can compete with the best, but whether the consistency is there for the long term.

They should prob just cut him tomorrow …

I agree, this is Dorseys first true test as an OC. Up until the 2nd half against GB Buffalo was having their way with teams and the only thing stopping them was self inflicted mistakes. The last 6 quarters have not only had mistakes but they have had true issues moving the ball as teams have sat with 7 in coverage while pass rushers have gotten home. Dorsey should've realized calling some plays like screens, quick slants.. etc. easy stuff would help take some of the pressure away. But when you were humming as well as the offense has for the first 6 and 1/12 games you sometimes get caught that you need to adjust faster. The Phins game they outgained and dominated the Phins in yards they just didn't close which happens. Yesterday was concerning for the lack of production. We shall see how long it takes for some answers to rise and fix these issues.

If they cant win every week 70-3 why are we even watching Which is a major red flag with McD. Most teams come out of the bye better yet virtually every season minus 2020 the Bills come out going through the motions. It is to the point it has cost them for years now and if he cannot clean this up maybe the time comes in a year or two to replace him.

Didn't wear a bills jersey just tshirt and my wife and I did not have relations which when we do on game day is like an .800 winning percentage. Sorry yall our fault

I mean a really big red wave a water could be problematic

I don't understand how people can keep saying we were closer in 21. They lost in the AFC semis not the title game and other then the Bills defense were worse statistically in everything. There is this weird thought that the Bills were the guaranteed SB champs last year if they beat KC, completely ignoring they did lose to KC but somehow would've just beat the next two teams without issue or opposition. 2020 was the breakout year and yes KC was better, but Buffalo had a 9-0 lead and multiple chances to take that game. Until the Bills get that close again or further to the SB that to mean is the mark they are chasing and everything else is lesser.

Exactly. Also in todays NFL holding a team to 20 or less should mean you are winning the vast majority of the time. The Bills D was by no means perfect but they played well enough for a win.

21 team wasn’t better then 20 they had a closer result. 20 team was a game away not two and the biggest failing result wise was Frazier weird decision to change their D that had worked earlier vs Mahomes and crew.

Oh yea every year is on the table

Virtually no team is 100% healthy. It is on them to overcome and adjust.

Between the loss today, injuries, an improved division, and Josh looking a bit more mortal 2020 is really starting to feel like the big missed opportunity. Buffalo cruised through any major obstacle outside of the KC game and was incredibly healthy throughout. Josh had maybe one truly bad game otherwise he was superb and would’ve been MVP had Rodgers not been so good. My feeling after today and how the season has gone is the team has far more obstacles then before with a greatly improved division that is no guarantee in the least. The AFC itself being not as strong helps for the playoffs, but unless Josh is playing almost perfect they are not the team we’ve thought unfortunately. Additionally McDermott needs some heat as the only year they have played well after the bye for a stretch of games was 2020. Last years struggles happened the same time, same as 2019 and 2017 (2018 was a waste in general). It’s tiring that the team itself looks so unprepared for a stretch of games after the bye when they should be rested and more focused. To me his hot seat is real if they can’t make it to the SB this year. I’d give him one last year and then change it if he can’t make it go.
