  1. Really it comes down to rooting with your heart vs rooting with your head. Rooting for NE to lose today is just someone who can’t get over the past. New England winning today is the better outcome assuming you haven’t jumped off the cliff and realize Buffalo can beat New England both times they play them. The Titans are hurting and likely have a couple more losses in them-if the Bills can take care of what they need to take care of, then you want the Pats to win today. In my mind someone rooting for the Titans tells me you don’t think Buffalo can handle their business

    He's finding out what happened to Cam Newton.    When you act like a football player.......you don't get those calls.   It's not right but it's how the game is called.    You gotta' act like you don't belong on the field with those defensive players to consistently get those calls.    Hell.......that little post-play whisper in Josh's ear in the first half would have been a 15 yarder if Ed Oliver did it to Trevor.

    Run Josh less.  Get more calls in the pocket.  

    See these are the comments I don’t get-is this sarcasm and it just came off terribly or are you really saying you want our QB to be “less of a football player”? He can’t stay in the pocket because there is hardly ever a pocket for him to stay in. So you guys want him to stay in the pocket and get crushed just so the Bills can maybe get 1 roughing the passer penalty-doesn’t seem smart at all to me

    9 carries for 26 yards, people may be getting a little ahead of themselves here.

     

    He did a nice job getting to the end zone on the screen pass and his speed has been a missing element in their offense, but transforms the offense is a bit strong.

    Completely agree with this-I like Breida and definitely think he adds a jolt to the team, but there’s  also a reason why he was inactive so often the first half of the season and why he has been on several teams over the past couple of years

    Can you imagine if Buffalo had injuries like Ravens, Niners  or Cleveland?? These teams lose starters time and time again and the coaching still finds a way to figure it out. We lose a RT and 1 DT and it's like we just lost our QB and top 3 receivers. The excuses from this organization is beyond pathetic. How is this team clinging to the 6th spot??!!

    Which 49ers team are you talking about? The one that went 2-14 a couple of years ago? The one that had a losing record last year? The one that has a worse record than the Bills this year? And the Browns team that got blown out last week and barely beat the Lions today?

    Why are people in such a hurry to throw aside a coach and GM that have made this franchise relevant?

    Because new is ALWAYS better, duh…seriously though people think that getting rid of these guys will help solve the problem, but my guess is many of them don’t have a solid solution if asked. Cool, get rid of Beane and McDermott, but who do you replace them with? And what’s the guarantee that those new guys will somehow do better than a team that is constantly now in the playoff hunt and can contend to go deep in the playoffs?

    Today was the first time in 36 years that I turned off a game in the 4th quarter.

     

    I had no choice. It isn’t the players on the field. It’s the ineptitude from the organization trickling down to the players on the field and it finally exploded today.

     

    This is the first time that I’ve felt that I don’t want to be a part of this anymore. It’s shameful.

    Dude back off the ledge-so you’re saying that today did it for you?? At no point during the 20 year drought did you feel like this, but today, with a team that is still 6-4, went to the AFC championship game last year, playoffs 3 of the last 4 years, today made you not want to root for the team any more? Yikes

    Ya the off-season and preseason all of them talking about how great their offense was and how great josh is - show me in games ot shut up about it imo

    Literally last week, and don’t give me the “it was the Jets” crap. Or how about the beatings they put on the Dolphins and Texans? Or how about the absolutely convincing win against the Chiefs in KC on a national stage

    Nah. I believe it has more to do with the team actually bought into their hype more than anything. Their heads are up their ass.

    Asking an honest question, but can you show me an interview or something like that that shows they “bought into their own hype”? Having a couple of bad games doesn’t mean they bought into their own hype. Teams have just been able to expose this team’s weaknesses

    I’d take the ball in the first half today… it’s better to have the extra possession when the ball is dry. 

    Even if/when it does rain, I want the back to back possessions. With the Bills defense, they could force a quick 3 and out to start the game and then potentially get the ball at the end of the first and start the second. That’s too good of a deal for me in a trade off for a dry ball

    People have PTSD from the Jax game.

     

    The Colts have no business beating the Bills and their defense. In fact, I don't think they score more than 17 points. Wentz is average and this isn't the pourous Run defense of the past. I'm pretty darn confident. I think Colts will make it interesting at first, but Buffalo will cruise in the 2nd half. 31-17 Buffalo ! 

    It’s crazy isn’t it?? Lose to Jacksonville and all of a sudden people are saying they would be surprised if the Bills even beat the Jets and I have also been reading people say all week that several Bills will need to play the games of their lives to barely beat the Colts-it’s madness, madness I tell you!!!

    Not trying to spoil yesterdays thumping of another bottom feeder, but there are a few issues that I perceive as puzzling at best in terms of the active gameday roster:

     

    1) Matt Breida/Zack Moss - why did it take half the season to realize this guy should be active and getting snaps? Zack Moss has proven to be useless and we keep wasting carries on him for the same 2 yard gain almost every time he touches the ball. Should be Singletary/Breida the rest of the season without question. If they insist on dressing Moss then keep Taiwan Jones inactive.

     

    2) AJ Klein - no he should not permanetly replace Edmunds, but this guy is a true grisled veteran that is always around the football. He proved it last year when he replaced Milano for a significant stretch and again this year when on the field. I get he's not the best in coverage but he's a throwback type of player....gritty and physical which is what this team needs more of.

     

    3) Gabriel Davis - this is the trickiest one because obviously we can't really reduce the top 3 WR's snap counts but seems like all he does is make big plays when he's on the field.

     

    4) Obada - seemed like he was very disruptive yesterday and had the only official sack of the game. Again another tricky situation because of the numbers game but if we are going to insist on giving former Panthers players playing time it should be him over Vernon Butler.

     

    5) Punter is horrible and will cost this team down the stretch just like the Steelers game. Should have already found a replacement by now.

    So the only one I will take issue with is #5.  While he is a little bit slower to get his punt off, the block during the Steelers game happened because the Bills just forgot to block on that one.  He doesn't hit booming punts, but I don't think the Bills want him to.  To me, his most important job is on holds and he obviously is very good at that

    A few things I noticed today:

     

    1. D line was in White's face and hitting him all day.  They didn't get the sacks but they were laying the heat down after down.  Ed got loose over the NYJ guard and just pounded White on what look like a fumble.  Watch the replay on that one and look at Mike White after Ed completely dumped him.  That's a guy in pain right there.  Oliver has really come on this season.  Not "worthy" of a draft pick as high as he was taken?  Who gives a rats behind?  This season, he's showing exactly why the Bills brass wanted him so much and today was a perfect example.  He's a monster.

     

    2. Josh was IN THE BLEEPING ZONE today!  75% completion % and hitting the deep balls all day.  I'm sure everyone noticed how little air he puts under his long passes when he's on.  No rainbows.  You can tell he has to take an extra step or wait just a bit longer because his arm is so strong.  If he keeps it up, his long-ball confidence will skyrocket. 

     

    3. Diggs:  162 (!) yards receiving at 20.2 (!) yard average reception.  Yikes!  Diggs is just unbelievable to say the least.  We got him and he ain't going nowhere else.  Gonna be one of the best Bills receivers ever, if not the best, by the time he retires.  History in the making and we all get front row seats!

     

    Man, it is DEFINITELY a great time to be a fan of the Buffalo Bills!!!!!!!!!

    That was 100% an incomplete pass-no way that ball travels forward from where he was hit of his arm wasn’t going forward. As much as I wanted that to be a fumble, that was definitely the correct call

  12. I think it's more of what the offensive line allows the team to do as opposed to what kind of offense the Bills run.  They have enough fire power that it doesn't matter if you know what's coming, if the line can hold up consistently you won't be able to stop them, just like teams really can't against Tampa, the Rams, etc.  If the line can't hold up (which it hasn't been able to lately) then it makes it really hard to do all of the things the team wants to do in order to be successful.

     

    Last year by mid to late season teams knew what the Bills were going to do but they were powerless to stop it.  Teams don't have enough on the back end to keep up with everything the Bills can do, but if the team can get to the QB, against the Bills line there is trouble.  Certainly things need to be tweaked, but I think if they can figure out the offensive line a lot of the problems go away (and yes, I know that's easier said than done)

  13. It seems that a lot of people this week keep talking about using check downs at the expense of Josh going through his professions and reads. It’s obvious the Bills don’t use a check down offense-his check down is his last resort. This is not to say some of those check down plays weren’t there against the Jags, but I have seen people posting that Josh should’ve been throwing to his check down in about 2 seconds. Yes Josh and Daboll could utilize that more, but reading the comments from some people this week it’s almost as if people are longing for the Trent Edwards days again

    This team bought the hype. They have played the entire season like a team that's waiting for its coronation.  It's the only explanation I have - on paper, this team is BETTER than the one that tore through the league in November, December & January, and almost made it to the show.

     

    But they're playing these games like fans do when they go through the schedule.  Miami? Easy win. Jax?  Let's check who we're playing next week.

     

    And beyond that, opposing teams are playing every game against us like we're the best team in the league. We're one of those teams now - we're getting every team's best.  

     

    This team has to get back to the basics. The talent is there.  They have to play every week like their season depends on it....not like they're waiting to see who they play in the AFCCG.

     

    Duuuuuuuuude overreact much? They blew out Miami, they blew out Houston, they beat KC, they dominated the second half against Miami-they aren’t sneaking up on teams like they did last year and they haven’t adjusted as much as we would like. 
     

    yea they played terrible today but this team has not “bought into the hype.” The line was questionable coming into the season so being down 2 starters was certainly going to hurt them. 
     

    Relax, sleep this one off, they’ll be fine

    In all honesty the jets have taken down the Bengals and Titans and have had extra time to prepare after today with this oline  Id be shocked if the Bills won 

    So you are saying that you expect the Jets to win next week?? I understand the whole doom and gloom pouty thing that happens after a loss, but I think you need to back off the ledge just a little bit

    I don't know about that.
     

    If he wasn't a 2nd round pick in the nfl (that the bills traded up for) just a few years ago, I really don't know if he has a job in this league.


    He is horrific.

    Literally every guy on the line played terrible. Not saying that Ford wasn’t bad, but make sure you call out the entire line, not just Ford for this game. Dawkins was consistently beaten or on his back, Williams decided not to block anyone on that last sack-they we’re all atrocious 

  17. 11 minutes ago, Hebert19 said:

    Yes but the blueprint is there on how you do it.  Play soft shell and our run game still can only get 1 yard per carry.  Then Josh tries to force *****.  

     

    No run game and bad oline makes us average at best. 

    So do you really think that if the starting offensive line was playing today they still would’ve only scored 6 points? Are you just going to completely ignore that the defense only gave up 9 points? 
    the offensive line was terrible and the penalties were inexcusable. That being said you are fooling yourself if you think the Bills can’t beat everyone left on Their schedule. The Rams almost lost to the Lions, cowboys were exposed today-these games are going to happen
