WideNine

Was not the best call and was not blind side. Hit the guy on the numbers. There is a point where NFL players just have to be aware of their surroundings or risk being de-cleated fair and square.

Both offensive and defensive lines crapped the bed in the second half. Could have been poor adjustments, but to me I did not see a lot of different looks from the Texans, if anything they did not bring the extra rusher like I thought they would and they were still getting to Allen unblocked, or barely blocked. The Texans lined their pass rushers wide all game long, that should tell you what they thought of our tackles. Watt schooled everyone in front of him for the most part and played all over the front line. Our defense stopped getting to Watkins as much in the second half and seemed to lose a step when they had to defend the run a bit. With more time Watkins got into a rhythm - missed tackles turned small gainers into longer ones and 1st downs and they were able to drive the field. Our defense seemed to be able to get them into 3rd and long enough times to force a punt, but got conservative and would give up the first. I am fine with Edmunds being a spy, but as the case was in run defense he has to avoid playing on his heels, or back-peddling. He needs to shadow that mobile QB, without conceding easy yards in front of him, take good angles, and close on him when he pulls it down - not wait for him to plow him over the 1st down marker. I like that he wraps up, but would like to see him take better angles and get some shoulder into his tackles to drive guys back rather than trying to drag guys down with his arms. He is young, and he will only get better. Not sure what our team priority needs are, but would have to think that RT, WR, and LB are up there especially with Zo retiring.

Our Bills defense needs to stop folding in the 2nd half of games. Good defenses close games out; They do not allow back to back scores and 2 point conversions. Missed tackles really have been a problem all year, needs to be a focus. That soft zone on 3rd and 18 was a huge mistake - did not like the call or the execution. Not sold on Badork as our punter... and today did nothing to make me feel like we have the right guy. Daboll did not call the best 2nd half, and the o-line needs some better pass protectors as 3 and 4 man rushes should not have been coming through our line like a hot knife thru butter. Definitely need an upgrade at RT as the Texans attacked that position with rushers setting up wide all game long. They got better on the left side defending that wide nine rusher, but even inside they were giving up pressure. How do you call a timeout, and then put in a downfield pass play that leaves Watt unblocked when in OT????? Sheer freaking genius. Allen choked a bit and the game got a bit big for him...just calling it as I saw it. That is where a smart OC gets the RB who is eating the Texan's lunch involved and does things to calm his QB down and lets him get into a rhythm. Instead he goes empty sets and puts more responsibility and pressure on his young QB and calls a bunch of QB designed runs when we know Allen can get hurt or put the ball on the turf. I don't get it. I like Allen using his legs on broken plays, or designed roll outs with receiving options, but have never been a fan of him plowing into defenders on stretch running plays or off tackle. Smoke seemed a bit off this game and I am not sure why - signaling for a flag as the ball is popped up and was still in play in the end zone. Not being aware of where the sideline was on the other deep route where normally he is really aware and would toe-tap that. White also played a bit uncharacteristically soft against Hopkins. I think he was so concerned about giving up the big play that he was giving him a bit too much cushion in the 2nd half. Give White some slack as he was in man to man quite a bit and he did not want to give up the big play.

Too many mistakes by the defense and poor play calling and execution on offense.

Well that was it boys.

Wrap up, wrap up, wrap up, wrap up All season long that has been the mantra issue with this defense when they give up yards

May well be... that was huge

That was the lamest zone defense I have ever seen. Leslie - seriously

Daboll has a shaky young QB and he does not let him lean on the run with Singletary and slow things down for him. I still don't like his game day feel for calling plays. He is creative, but he just seems to not have his finger on the pulse of a game sometimes.

Daboll needs to get fired if he keeps doing that. Why not use Singletary??????

Oh my freaking god...

Lets leave Watt unblocked

Slow it down Daboll - that is what they need to do

Was just thinking someone needs to tell Josh that he can run to the sideline if they are dropping everyone.

Daboll - WTF Stop with the Allen run options at this stage of the game

Good balance with Singletary. Keep Gore on the bench for now.

Probably kept another 5 years of mileage on your heart. No judgement.

Allen was a bit wide-eyed those last few series. The game got a bit big for him. Forget at times how green the kid is and that this is his first full season.

On THAT we both agree

OMG.... these Bills are going to kill me.

Hausch Money.... please!

Daboll better have a plan B play because they just got a look at our hand.

No sack, no ints

Whaaaat... thought he was short.

Brown knowing where the sideline is... This team is playing too tight... just relax and use the sidelines
