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.

So yes, that feild position battle was really huge early on, was stunned at some of those early returns, Andre a bit off his game. One time , a ball sat so strange. BTW not over concerned with lack of Bills pressure. This was a killer OL on their top game. It was a factor here, but the Bills will recover. We do need an elite rush DE going forward.

Its fun when the fandom clicks in them. My daughter is 9 and was in tears for the hail "Murray" it took the edge off the loss. Its always about the chase and the memories.

Everyone agreed that fumble call was bogus....ive been getting texts and emails from a myriad of non bills fans saying that was a bad call.

Totally agree... this was the best team we've played all year including the Steelers or Seahawks..Colts and Rivers are an excellent football club and they brought their A game ...well done Colts what a win for us. What a goddamn game.

Yes you're right but this was the best offensive line we've seen all year
