Allen2Moulds

He started off erratic, almost like we were watching a diff QB, but settled in just before the half. I think we got grossly outcoached on both sides of the ball, but there is also a personal deficiency.

I couldn't agree more. I was begging for a rollout, or pitch to Cook. Chiefs were totally selling out to stop the play, and there were opportunities to be had. That and the 3rd and 10 screen pass to Amari. Josh had finally settled in, and started having more success through the air. Here are the final 4 plays, if I remember correctly...Ty Johnson run for no gain, batted ball, screen pass to Amari, and than the desperation heave. Screen pass is a glorified run. I would rather give Josh at least one more opportunity. That was the game, and the excessive sneaks, compounded by a bad spot.

I think both the Kincaid and Coleman picks are not looking to good. Coleman wears the number 0, and that seems to have been his impact last night. 2 weeks in a row, in a big game, gotta have it moment, and Kincaid doesn't come up with it. Besides Shakir, who do you trust in a situation like last night. We've been sorely lacking size and speed at wide out, and this was a great draft for it. We decided to go with one of the slowest WR in the draft. You have this cheat code of a QB, who you continue to handcuff, by failing to arm him with the proper weapons. I won't revisit the Ford over Metcalf thing, because that's been discussed to death. We had an opportunity at a redo with Bryan Thomas, who you failed to go up and get. This is the absolute type of guy that you needed to match with Allen.

Was it only 1 punt combined between Chiefs and Ravens?

Come on...McDermott overachieved. Coleman was invisible, and Kincaid was once again a major disappointment. Also still no difference maker on the dline. I can't believe how bad Rosseau was. How comfortable do you feel handing him a big contract? Bryan Thomas Jr. Anyone? How come he's not a Bill. We have this big arm QB, and we continue to refuse to arm him. It's almost becoming a fireable offense.

I forgot where I heard it, but there was a podcast about the top offensive minds in the game, along with their coaching tree. Slovacks name came up, and it may have have been Simms that said it, but he said.....Slovack is an interesting guy, because when you look at him, it's hard to trace where his teachings came from. Basically he implied that Bobby only had a playback, and not a system. They said...once teams catch on to your plays, what do you do? This is what we saw happened this year. Part of it anyways. Agree that injuries and online play also hurt them, but when teams know what you're doing, it's that much harder on the oline.

Just enjoying the ride. I'm beyond letting expectations ruin the moment. I say that, and then kickoff happens, and I'm a totally irrational lunatic.

If I'm not mistaken, there were 4 backups in at the dline at once. I hope never to see that either. It's not the preseason.

Only because he did it once already, I can't help but fantasize about Allen playing another perfect game, and this time against the Chiefs. Pretty much impossible to lose, unless somehow the other team also does it, and ends up with an extra possession. Don't kill my dream!

I can't stand Gerald McCoy, he's such an idiot. I'm glad the networks realized it, and we no longer see him on TV. Van Noy seems like a stand up guy.

He's playing like one of the top tackles in the league.

A poster above, notes that banged up Bills saw him hop off a little gingerly on a play. That makes me think, that they were being abundantly cautious with him. Had the Ravens come back and won, that would've obviously blown up in our face, but luckily it didn't. Of course this is pure speculation by me, trying to figure what I believe makes the most sense. Milano has never been someone who goes rogue.

It makes me think, that they saw that and decided to put him bubble wrap for next week, and he was probably like it's nothing, I'm fine. At least what makes sense to me.

Bobby was asked during the presser, and I don't remember the exact question, but his response was...I'll keep that conversation between me and him (Milano). That to me sounds like he was kept out for tactical/coaches decision type reasons, but I don't know. Doesn't sound like he was injured.

I understand the importance of running clock, and I guess ultimately it did work, because we took the ball all the way down to the 2-yard line. But the shotgun call from the 2 was bad. Josh needs to be under center there, run or pass. The 2nd thing I was surprised about, was that after Hollins pancaked Humphrey out of game, we didn't target his replacement. You saw it in the Philly game. As soon as Quinyon Mitchell got hurt, the Rams attacked his replacement over and over again. Overall: The Good: First half aggression on defense, running offense, Tyler Bass The bad: 3rd quarter, got too conservative on both sides of the ball. But hey, in all and all the recipe still equaled a WIN!!! We just need to be better on offense next week against the Chiefs. GO BILLS!!!!!

They were def better in the trenches. Brady called a C+ game. Kept the Ravens in the game.

Horrible play call. Don't get cute

Win: McDermott puts on masterclass on how to slow down Ravens offense. Lose: McDermott Defense lays another egg in playoff loss.

I just saw a video posted by Dan Orlovsky, of the 6 oline, 2TE and FB offense. We can probably count Ricard as oline number 7. Pitt for some reason, even with 0 WR's on the field, playing 2 high, and a 3rd defender, pretty far back as well. With that look, we wouldn't you implement a goal line defense. Dan O, even says, that the O is basically a goaline offense formation. I've also seen a lot of discussion about playing Dorian, at the expense of Taron. We need to have a package that puts our 11 best defensive players on the field against the Ravens. I would rather had look with Taron over Hamlin. I understand that Taron is not a safety, but the defense is all about zones. I think we get stuck on titles a little too much at times.

I know right. Let's hope the Ravens win the toss.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I strongly feel like we have to start the game with back to back TD drives, and hold them to no more than 10pts. In no other game, is setting the tone as important as in this one.

No Flowers at practice today. Ooops, already posted above. I will only say, that I hope we have an ultra-aggressive game plan. We played passive to start and got torched the last time. No Flowers, allows you to crank it up a bit.

This is a 4.7 guy, don't see how he has the quicks to emulate Lamar in practice. Why not KJ Hamler? I mean, the coaches obviously know better, but that's just my take.

Dorian Williams is far and away the most explosive LB we have. If he had Milano's instincts, he'd be an all-pro already.

I know I'm in the miniority here, and also know that he's not known to be a run stuffer. But every time Jordan Philips is in the game, he gets push up the middle. The dude is 6'6" 340lbs. If Oliver gets pushed around like the last game, I would like to see Philips eat into his snaps. Go ahead...I'm ready for ya to kill for me for this suggestion.
