I feel better watching the 2019 game. Forgot how close it was. Josh was bad, but just over 100 yards passing, and game winner / tie was pretty close to smoke. Not sure why we didnt run Josh more that game. We had like only 200 yards total offense but held them to like 250. I dont see Josh being held down to that stat line this time around.

The 19 Ravens game they did not rush Josh much...very odd only 2 rushes for 9....

Marv Levy anyone? Isnt it amazing how little people learn from our own history?

Wow...I'm hearing some horrible stuff on this post, racial, and otherwise classless. Frazier was an experienced HC who made a playoff run. Worked w Dungy and saw how it was supposed to be done. He's led a top Defense here, and excelled, despite some loss of personel this year, got them back into form. He is a great canidate and wish him well. If Texans wanted to satisfy Rooney rule, they would simply have given Crennel an interview. I believe he is a serious canidate. Frasier deserves a lot better than a few of you are speaking about. This guy is OUR dude and he deserves a lot better and more respectful than what I'm hearing!

Hey just rewatched the extended highlights of the 2019 game....wow , i forgot how close that game was. Josh was erratic. Bailed on a few pockets earlier than he would now. But there the last Brown pass was dead on to potentially tie that one, despite a lot of mistakes. After rewatching, my same worries remain; Balt getting sacks and fumbles, and Lamar making a few electric plays. The long Hurst TD ..man we gotta stop these TEs. The big difference this year, a noticeably better Allen, espc, versus the blitz, then Diggs and Gabe Davis i hope, more big plays from Bills offense. Im not totally sure of we will get better line play, but Josh needs a quicker release than last season. No way Balt will limit us to 210 total yards this go around. We will be right there with them, and i think we will see a lot of the same looks. I agree about jumping out early...was crazy to hear this 10 point comeback @ Tenn was Lamar's biggest comeback.

This thread gets the "Nick Wright" award.

So the concern here is not that it looks like what rivers did, but more like what Mahomes and Tannyhill did....3rd and 5 or short and Bills cover well, but mobile QB makes play with legs to get the 1st. Thats my big concern.

Part of it will depend on luck....does Lamar get the lanes he needs even when we play something right by performing magic. Honestly that is basically why they beat Tenn....Lamar got wild 2-3 times.

I agree with most of what you say but im sure that game film on the games i mention, specifically Chiefs, Browns, Titans, and even a few others were they gave up decent yards are going to show some weakness. Get er done Daboll.

Yes, but the Rams were better than indy too. These Ravens gave up: 500+ yards to Chiefs Nearly 400 to Eagles 420 to Titans Nearly 500 to Browns So as an old school guy, its hard to say this is a legendary defense...even for Balt. They are not unbeatable...good team, but not unbeatable. My biggest concern is pass rush causing sacks and fumbles.

Question is can we play a game like the Titans today, but make a few more plays and limit some of those big 3 runs Lamar had? I think for sure we can. Line reflects my thoughts...slight edge to Ravens with the home points in our favor. Will be stoked for this game.

Ravens it is....bring it.... At least i can get to bed early.

I thought Tannyhill played like crap today, their playcalling was garbage. Vrabel was bad. They didnt play very good today and really shoulda coulda have won.

Steelers drops just comical...

Steelers and Cowboys always get overrated.

We were right to want to play the Steelers. What a playoff egg so far. They dont have the dogs to come back from this.

Bears undisciplined...dropping passess, jumping Offside, throwing punches...just bad.

Well weve seen how our D will play Ravens. We honestly did a good job against them last year. Our offense did not do great. We almost beat them. What the Ravens do has not really changed. If anything they've gone back to that. Since we played last year we're a lot better...

No that was to win the game...not as bad.

Terrible call to punt there. 15 20 yards difference? W/ Henry? Man...

They didnt look so bad against us.

Theyll beat an eviscerated Brownies at home, big deal...we've beat Pitt 2 years in a row and we match up well w/ them. I want the easier path...my hope is Chiefs get knocked off and we face Titans in title game.

I totally agree with everything you said here. I really thought Milano had a stinker too...it does not erase the good he's been, but it really needs to be broken down.

The O-Line was the best we faced all year... The lack of pass rush was huge problem, the type of problem we've not seen all year. They nailed our blitzing and made us pay. Rivers was in a zone...saw the field great... We could not cover the TEs...this has been a problem for us in our losses...and the Bills film crunchers need to take a long hard look at this... Defense won the game in the end nonetheless....they won the game by holding the 4th down before half, and holding the doink FG attempt. (and of course the non counted strip) Indy's Oline is the real credit here, I think...they played their butts off. Much respect. I don't know if we'll struggle to get pressure this way again. Let's also hold solace that this was the best Defense we've played all year...and the team scored and moved the ball to win the game. Our DEFENSE and OFFENSE are tied together...and in the end we were too much to hold back. This is playoff football...its not about power rankings or style points...its about getting it done. Bills got it done. I think BETTER of this team coming out the back side of a game like this.

I feel like whatever we are now is a badass Frankenstein monster of all our past. This is awesome.
