My point is the NYG game, one that is not in London and vs a much worse team would have been a better game to ease Miller back into. It seemed like not only was there a snap count but he was also playing careful out there just trying to get back on the filed but not do too much. The next game would have been a better time for that.

It has been an interesting season that is for sure. Record 3-2 - Worse start since 2018. All 5 games the Bills were favored by decent margins (MIA only one less than 5, not including NYJ bc if Rodgers was out that 3-pt spread would have been 5+). 2 of our 3 wins are vs sub 500 teams that will not be sniffing the playoffs. Last year we destroyed the super bowl champ Rams and 2 prior playoff teams in TEN and PIT and a close one vs another playoff team in BAL. The one loss was the extreme heat game in MIA. Stats We have a huge 79 pt scoring differential. Scoring 159 and only giving up 80. But...last year we were at 152 scored and only 61 given up, so a better differential of 91. This narrative about this years record breaking pace is actually not as impressive if you choose to remember last year. On O last year we had 4 games with over 400 yds, basically 2 with 500 yds and only 1 with 300. This year we have only hit 400 twice and not sniffed 500. On D last year we held 4 teams under 300 yds (1, almost 2 under 200 yds). No one gut 400 on us. This year we have only held 3 and 2 had essentially 400. Injuries We have lost White and likely Milano. Last year we had no White for a long time, Hyde went out week 2, Miller was out 6 games, Poyer was out 4 games, Oliver, Edmunds, Morse all missed 3 games, not to mention Allen and Davis played banged up. Verdict So are we in better shape compared to last year? The narrative has been how much improved we are on paper. We have also heard how great the numbers have been despite the two losses. But as shown above last year was actually more impressive after 5 games. The remaining schedule is tough, this was supposed to be our easy stretch. Quickly coming down the pike we have @CIN, @KC, @PHI, @MIA, @LAC, home v DAL. That is 6 very tough games. If we can go 3-3 in those games and win the rest we are supposed to win that puts us at 12-5. This will likely be tight with MIA. Any slips and we are fighting for a wild card.

Von should have sat this one out. Should have used this next game as his "walk through" game. He did nothing out there. That is on the coaches to recognize that.

Look at DEN, CAR, LVR, AZ, NYG, CHI, MIN rosters...see anything you like? Then you make some calls.

Rigged. No PI, ball was not tipped. Then don’t call sneed for taking off his helmet.

Mahomes earlier pass was not past the LOS?

Nice fake by min.

D played bend but don’t break. But overall gave up a ton of easy catches. Jax did not seem to be scared at all, the look slow and 25 points is actually the most they have scored the past 4 weeks. O was just bad. Hard to know if it was the players or the scheme. They went with loss vs the jets strategy of constant shotgun draws and horizontal passes to the sideline getting 1 yd chunks. Penalties and drops came up again. Diggs beat his deep and both passes were thrown short. Just an overall bad showing across the board. To me though it starts with the scheme. Dorsey is just killing this O. Even when we are scoring it rarely looks easy, usually requiring crazy broken plays etc. Dorsey is here for a while so hopefully he figures it out. Easiest change would be to get under center more and see how it goes.

Only thing that could make today a little better is a cin and kc loss.

There should be plenty of car panthers available.

There was no blocking they went for the block.

Watching kc in January at this point.

That is 2 out 5 though.

Two losses and we still have to go to PHI, KC, CIN, MIA, LAC and home vs DAL. Needed to be 5-0 not 3-2.

Sad performance. Came out with no energy. Tried to show up and never did outside a few players. Allen had Diggs for 2 td’s on better throws.

And we suck again

This one is going on the list of games I wished I missed. Awful football all the way around.

This is the Leslie Frazier D. Can’t stop crap but you look at the scoreboard and it’s only 11 points.

Hopefully our d can get a stop and good field position. Been way too easy for Jax to move the ball.

How can it be so obvious yet Dorsey keeps doing it? Is he trying to fool them - they don’t think I’m dumb enough to keep doing it?

The first down draw is killing us

Give it up.

Shotgun delayed draw and shotgun 1 yard out is not going to cut it. Need to go under center and run up the gut and go playaction or quick routes.

Jax too fast and ready for the delayed draw.

Let’s see more play action less delayed draw please in the second half.
