Pats Defense making a lot of plays

Yes, they did. TD and FG on first two drives. The point I’m making is that they have an early game issue.

Another frustrating thing about the Bengals game ending after 1.5 drives .. I really wanted to see if it’s a legit defensive issue or our typical 1st quarter garbage. Their high powered offense wouldve been a good look.

Chicago did the same two weeks ago. It is what it is. But it also doesn’t seem to be team specific.

I mean, agreed .. but not the greatest position to be in going into the playoffs just spotting teams TD drives in the first quarter. Happened in Chicago. Happened against Cinci. Just happened now. Been happening all year. Really frustrating.

If Miami gets back Tua and the Ravens get back Lamar, that reinforces just how massive of a gift KC received. No easy WC games with the options for Division winners being Chargers, Ravens, Dolphins. Now if Lamar and/or Tua don’t play .. those teams are a joke.

Atlanta seems to me as the best choice too. Big city, tons of hotels, and anyone can get a direct flight that wants one. Also, can’t hide my bias as I have a place about 15 minutes from Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Tons of Bills fans in/around Atlanta. Outside the Falcons, has to be the most repped NFL team in the ATL Metro.

Bengals in such a weird spot. Can probably beat the Ravens by going vanilla, given no Lamar, but still don’t want to lose that game and have a coin flip for where it’s played should they rematch.. Especially given it “sounds” like Lamar will play next weekend.

Damar has some potential, but he’s still a young player who had some obvious weaknesses. One wonders if another Safety could step in and solidify the position a bit better. I remember when Taron Johnson lost his starting spot. Then, was it Cam Lewis?.. replaced him and got injured.. Taron came back and has been a top slot corner in the NFL since. Not saying we have that in Marlowe, Johnson, Lewis etc., but coverage-wise, we could get better. What we lose is Hamlin’s swag and big hit ability.

If they can’t find a mid-point location.. Atlanta would make sense given how easy it is to fly into for fans. Likely has hotel rooms, somewhere, given the size of the city.

That ref was not having it with the snap

I just saw the clip on social media of the Jags and Titans entire teams coming out to pray together before the game. Pretty awesome. Side note … most absurd 4 yard throw you’ll ever see.

Only one bye per conference is honestly ridiculous. It’s such a massive advantage.

Lol… why do people keep doing this!?

The mascot coming down on a zip line was kind of cool. The fans were about 60-70% Bills. I don’t miss sitting in traffic for hours.. meandering around random neighborhoods trying to leave the stadium after the L.

That. Was. Awesome.

Potentially. That said, on paper, the Chiefs and Bengals do not have a better defense than us (even with our injuries).

Playoffs. They are a good regular season defense. Time for that side of the ball to step up this post-season. There’s enough investment there that we shouldn’t expect them to just be trash against elite playoff offenses because Hyde/Miller are out.

Yea, so let people vent. We all “knew” a Raiders win was unlikely, but we all “hoped” they’d win. Not sure why people need to be lectured on this like they don’t care about Damar due to emotions showing over KC taking the one seed they were handed.

It doesn’t help, agreed. But we have so much invested in this defense that I struggle to give them the injury excuse every year. Im not asking them to be dominant. Just dont be terrible.

Agreed. No matter what, McD/Frazier and this Defense better figure out how to not have out highly rated unit be completely useless, again, this post-season.

I mean, we lost 3 games. Yea, don’t blow the Vikings game I guess.

Sorry. We will all preface every post with a mandatory “Thankful for how well Hamlin is recovering .. praying for his continued recovery .. but (insert football comment)”

Im not exactly criticizing what they did.. Im more just disgusted that it’s KC who benefits the most. If it was anyone else (Titans last year for instance) I’d probably be whatever about it.

Remember when we lost to the Bears the week before. ….because that game started the same way.
