I don't think it's because of the loss in it of itself. It's some of the inherent issues we have that have prevented us from winning a SB that we still see. The defense has big problems. This is a defense that has gotten lit up over and over and over again in the playoffs and it's most likely going to happen again. There's really no strength on this unit and the secondary looks really rough. The WR's not being able to get open haven't really deterred us from scoring big points in the playoffs but it's still a concern. The agitation for me is that it's the same exact issues we've had for years are rearing their ugly heads again and it's hard to see how it's going to be "fixed" by January.

Can we defend Diggs? My God.

It’s just so easy

We’re kind of just not that good

It'll prob be a lot of Ray Davis time in the 2nd half

I don't know why the NFL keeps going down this super unpopular road of cracking down on taunting and celebrations. Literally nobody is asking for this.

Yeah the Bengals/Broncos at least before the season looked like a solid game to throw on Monday night. I don't know how they thought Jets/Dolphins was.

Yeah that was pretty encouraging, I agree he hasn't looked like that in a while

Yeah I'm definitely not as concerned as with Jackson. He's doing OK under some tough circumstances. Hopefully this won't happen with Jackson but there were people who in Elam's second season when he was still a healthy inactive would be like "he'll be fine, no worries" and it's just strange.

Who hires the people to tell him which way to go on it? He is responsible for it, especially when it's been a problem for 9 years.

Except that's not the case at all. It's that the people that are hired to watch the same thing we do with picture perfect and slowed down camera angles and whom this is literally their professional job to relay what to challenge and what not to are not good at it and have not been for McD's 9 years here.

I mean I still think we can win it in spite of him, but it is true that there is zero accountability for McD. Not for his defenses that have killed us in literally 6 postseasons in a row or his game management including being one of the worst at challenges in the league for such a long time. It's always someone else's fault.

The issue is his booth guys have sucked for 9 years now. It's on him to put the right people in there and he's never done it.

Just couldn't let me be happy!

I think it's yet to be seen. I thought ST's looked pretty bad Game 1, and yesterday they looked a lot better. Hopefully this guy can at least count how many men are on the field.

That would be devastating for me to hear if Allen was one of those We need that bye and home field all the way for once. Banking those wins is the way.

I listened a little bit but it's so bad now on there. They used to have such better hosts and shows when I used to live in the city and listened to it regularly while working.

Just trying to understand the first part…do you think it’s not a failure if the Bills don’t come away with a SB in Josh’s career? Or were you talking about just this season?

A lot of guys on D looked washed on Sunday night. A scary amount.

Yeah ultimately if he caused confusion by not calling timeout, I do think Josh would've taken the reigns and got them up there to spike it. If I were Harbaugh I probably wouldn't have called timeout and if the Bills figured out what they were going to do, I would've called it around 15 seconds, you know at that point they're going to kick it and you'd get the ball back with maybe 10 seconds for a chance at a miracle play.

They would have just kicked it if it was 3rd down and 15 seconds when he called the timeout. I do wonder though if we would've caught on fast enough if he just didn't call timeout at all or if it would've been really rushed. But that is true...they would've either possibly had us rush it or would've had a few seconds to possibly get into position for a Hail Mary if they had called it later.

Nah, that's part of the game. Why do fans see it as it not being OK for players to taunt the fans when the fans do it to them all the time? You can yell and taunt all you want from either side...but you can't initiate contact like that from either side either. The Bills fan in this case was totally in the wrong. As others have said, if Lamar had punched him in the face, he would've IMO been well within reason.

I think he was almost stunned that he went completely unblocked and unaccounted for. Haha I saw it last night too but didn't want to harp on a negative when it was such an amazing win. But yikes how brutal would it have been to lose on a block where he was allowed to rush in totally free?

Short yardage was brutal. Whether we tried to run, QB "sneaks" or whatever some of those were, and the 2pt calls. Lot of work to be done there. There is definitely a lack of creativity on these plays. These are plays that should be fun for an OC, especially 2nd and short when we're at midfield or something, the whole playbook is open.

Doesn’t look like anything’s changed on D
