    I fully support the punt with 30 seconds left.  Make them drive the length of the field with 20 seconds.  They had a very low percentage chance of winning on that play.

     

    Also how wierd was it that tb took 6 minutes off the clock on themselves in a 2 score game?

    Tb ran themselves straight out of the game and scored 8 points on complete lucky plays aided by an absolutely  blatant push off by evans.  Still didn’t have better than a 1/100 shot of winning it despite that

    Other than Lawson's blocked fg, ST had another disappointing night. The lack of discipline & coaching creates those 4th down penalties. 

    Those ST penalties were absolute killers….we were dominating the field position battle and just throwing it away

    Keep the pedal down with the hurry up and go for it on 4th and 5 or less in other teams territory. This will be the way come end of season.

    It definitely will be against teams not named the buccaneers….that’s why I’m not really connecting with this criticism tonight.  I will be right there with y’all if we’re punting in that situation against kc mark my words

    Style points don't count. You're absolutely correct. I don't think anyone is mad that the Bills won. But the way in which you win can give you insight into future results. And the way they won this game gives many a bad feeding about the rest of the season. That's understandable, no? 

    Not understandable at all imo…you do what maximizes your percentage of winning the game in question and there was little to no chance the bucs were winning this way 

     

    I know y’all want to see points and so on and want your qb to throw for 500 yards but if a team wants to run the clock out on themselves you let them every time.  I think past emotional trauma is giving the illusion that that game was closer than it was, not so much the actual game itself 

     

    tampas defense is pretty good one stop around midfield and you completely lose having the clock as your best defender. 
     

    if the bills oline can hold up like that consistently they’ve got a shot in every game

    How'd it work out? Still nearly lost to another backbreaking last second play. Never should have come to that 

    Nearly lost?  No one was remotely close to catching that lol this is peak crazy town.  This is like saying the jags almost lost to us cuz we had a chance at a hook and ladder play at the end 😂

    If he dies that against Cincinnati, I'm all in on firing McDermott.

    He won’t…cincy can score on this defense quickly…the bucs basically conceded the game tonight with that long drive and we were like oookay lol. Literally everything went their way, balls bouncing off guys heads, balls getting tipped and caught/picked, boneheaded penalty by Jordan Phillips, and they still just couldn’t move the ball fast enough to win

    Almost no defense can hold an opposing offense down 1 score with the game on the line because the NFL rules and officials are stacked in favor of the offense. Defensive-minded old school aholes like McD can’t grasp this and consistently put their players in positions to lose not win. 

    Every defense can when the clock is on your side…up 6 with 30 seconds left and the opponent has no timeouts and you have a pretty good chance to pin the ball deep is probably 99 out of 100 times a win at the very least

     

    y’all just don’t have a handle on the game flow tonight it feels like.  Yea if it’s a high powered offense on the other side that can score quickly maybe you take some more risks on offense but it wasn’t

    My thoughts on the game:

     

     - the O-line was fantastic

     - We're not the smartest team at times.  They should get an old tape of Levy saying don't be dumb, don't be dirty

     - They heard us all week - Josh ran, and the no huddle was effective

     - I love Ryan Fitzpatrick

     

     

    My god I do not want to be Jordan phillips in that locker room

    Well that decision nearly cost the game putting that defense out there 

    Did it?  Because Godwin was like 4 feet from catching a Hail Mary that he couldn’t even locate in the air? lol 

     

    think about the alternative where there’s a good shot we got stopped at midfield once or maybe two times giving the bucs plenty of time to score.  If you don’t trust the defense, how the heck does that risk make sense? The clock was our best defender in the second half it doesn’t matter if it’s pretty.  Literally every bounce went the bucs way, they caught every break imaginable and they still couldn’t win

    Yeah lining up at the 1 inch line at the goal line in a shotgun formation only to get stuffed a yard and a half behind the line of scrimmage to end up with nothing is a sure stroke of genius.  Same thing happened the week before. Which cost is the game. Don’t even get me started on the defense. Take off your rose colored glasses.  This coaching staff is in way over its head. 

    Yea that terrible defense forced a quick punt and our offense got the ball back at the 24 lol. 
     

    there’s been a lot of valid criticisms up to this point but tonight I think people are kind of losing the plot imo.  Against the bucs you just don’t risk turning it over at midfield, it takes them far too long to drive down the field.  Against the bucs and eagles and such the same decisions will not be made, those teams can score in a hurry. This whole ‘imagine if we were playing the eagles tonight’ is a moot point

    A lot of noise from everybody with a keyboard this week. A lot of good this week. A lot. Credit to Josh, Dorsey, McD, the Defense, and Special Teams. 
     

    All three phases were lights out 

     

    My biggest knock is I lost an 11 leg parlay tonight because I took Cook on 2+ receptions. He had 1. Dorsey is a bum. 

    I just cannot understand this board tonight lol you don’t risk turning the ball over at midfield against the bucs…offense moved the ball all night, dumb playcall from the goal line is a valid criticism, and we will not be punting on 4th and shorts against the bengals and eagles of the league.  
     

    the bucs defense ain’t bad and our offensive line held up that’s a huge win

    The problem is the refs didn't call it and if Goodwwin catches the ball we lose.

    This playing scared isn't going to work against teams like the Eagles and Chiefs.  We're not going to the SB so there's no reason not to play more aggressive football but Sean's addicted to safety and caution which fuels a lack of confidence.

    You don’t think the bills will go for more 4th and shorts against offenses better than the bucs? These gameday threads man I swear 😂. The only way tb beats us is if we turn it over on downs around midfield then the clock is no issue

    Ok. I’m out. You’ve been proven wrong and you refuse to acknowledge. Good chat. 

    In what way is having a minute left to prevent a game winning fg anywhere close to having 30 seconds to prevent a td? You are entirely and objectively incorrect in every conceivable way.  I am thankful every day the posters in this gameday thread have no control of the bills decision making lol

    That’s an entirely different situation…the chiefs had plenty of time to drive down the field and kick a game winning fg there if the ravens punted.  Not even close to comparable.  
     

    That downvote tells me all I need to know lol being up 1 with a minute left against the chiefs is a teeeeny bit different than being up 6 with 30 seconds left against the bucs.  Just an insane thing to argue

    Come on. It’s one yard with a horse of a qb. I’m trusting him to get it done. Hurts is trusted. Lamar is trusted. I’m not even giving them a chance with this defense (who almost gave up another Hail Mary). I was pro-punt the previous two, but when you have a foot to end the game, I might take it. Look, it’s fine, it worked out. Is what it is. 

     

    No team is going for that there…not even the eagles.  People that are cool with going for it there have absolutely no right to criticize any coach on any team ever

    This win gives something to everyone. There were a ton of positives to be optimistic about. There were some issues the pessimistic posters will cry about. 

     

    Either way it's a win and I'm going to bed lol

    The only way we were losing that game is if we went for those 4th and shorts and got stopped…literally every bounce went the bucs way and they ran out the clock on themselves

    Tampa literally had every bounce of the ball land their way. We still found a way. Got the win. Looking like we came out healthy. Got Shakir, Kincaid and Davis to pop off a bit. And now 10 days to rest and work out some bugs and prep for Cincinnati.

     

     

    5-3? I'll take it.

    This game day thread was really something tonight lol tb just decided to run out the game on themselves and everyone wanted us to go for 4th and shorts at midfield? Insane
