You’re right that it’s not debatable, but it’s not debatable that we aren’t the worst defense in the league without those guys.
Not a single metric shows us to be.
Dead last in defensive DVOA weeks 5-9. I’ve gotta go through the turnover numbers but we are hardly forcing any and are rarely getting off the field on third down also.
our defensive metrics were extremely good prior to week 5 so just looking at the overall season numbers is hardly relevant (if that’s what you’re doing)

O line is still not that good. What I don't see is anything that resembles a running game. Not really talked about on this forum is the subtraction of Motor who was always shedding 1 tackle for a few yards a rip. His 1000+ all purpose yards in back to back years is missed on the Offense IMO.
That’s kind of a league wide issue this year imo…defenses have been dominating and ours is just missing too many impact players
lots of good teams have been winning ugly offensive games this year

Won’t be easy…they are in a brutal division and will have to win on the road in the playoffs, but they are more than capable. Kind of incredible how many franchises have never won a Super Bowl…I count 9
They’re a pretty good team…bills and niners with a ton of impactful injuries made them look better than they are. They are just as likely to miss the playoffs as they are to go on a playoff run at this point

They absolutely will. This has been the worst year of my life and watching everyone around me celebrate will by the cherry on top of the poop sundae.
Neither look good enough to do anything this year and the bengals have a lot of tough questions on contract extensions coming up
I’d lean bills honestly but it’s not likely for either…not because we’re better but because were in a bad division. Ravens are better than the bengals without a doubt and Cleveland seems to have their number also

I don’t agree.
Patriots scored 17 points against a Commanders defense that we put 37 points on.
Patriots scored 17 points against a Dolphins defense that we hung nearly 50 points on.
Patriots scored (you guessed it) 17 points against a Raiders defense we put 38 points on.
Patriots scored 0 points against a Saints defense that gave up 26 points to the Bucs, 27 points to the Colts, 31 points to the Jags, etc.
Unless you’re telling me that we are in the worst defense in the NFL without Ed, Milano and Tre, then we simply played and coached like crap that final drive against NE.
One of the worst for sure…I’m not even sure it’s debatable. We absolutely nosedived in all the big defensive metrics in that stretch post jax despite seeing almost entirely bottom third offenses. The giants offense is historically horrendous also and it is by the grace of god they didn’t put up 20+ on us. It’s not like it was just the pats game.
not saying it should be an excuse for anyone…people can hate whoever they want as much as they want whether it be coaches or players lol. But talent wise we were ‘out’ arguably our 5 best defensive players
we focused a lot on the saints for some reason haha so I’ll continue that. Who was our Demario Davis when we played the pats?
who was our cam Jordan? Paulson Adebo is playing out of his mind also.
We didn’t have anyone in the same zip code of that much talent in that pats game

it is so disheartening to see every defense the Patriots play,make them look inept… except for the Bills.
The defense we fielded that week was probably the least talented group the pats will see all season so it makes sense.
All those guys we lost for the season plus Ed oliver and von is essentially out until his cast comes off.
the only silver lining from the cincy game is it looks like linval and rasul can definitely contribute quickly -

How the heck did the Bills lose to this team
Our defense minus Daquan, Milano, tre white, Ed oliver and with von playing in a big cast is one of the worst defensive lineups in the league. We probably would’ve shut them out with a couple of those guys available

Yeah. The whole team is in a funk. Overall the D is playing better than the offense despite the injuries, but they didn't look good against the Bengals.
And yeah, the pass rush has just disappeared, though hearing about Rousseau's foot injury helps clear things up at least a bit. If Von gets a lot closer to what he was historically, the pass rush will look a lot better, I think. I'm not sure he will. Hope so
We've seen the Bills snap out of it before. But sometimes teams just don't.
The defense was pretty dreadful post Milano/jones/white injuries until the cincy game…I’m hopin linval and rasul get us back closer to how we started the season. If we had them a few weeks earlier the pats game is more than likely a win and we’d be sitting at 6-3 with the division lead.
offenses have been struggling all around the league this season but our d was way too easy to exploit for that stretch of games post jax. The offense has no doubt been bad too but there aren’t a whole lot of teams that are consistently moving up and down the field this year. This has been a really strange season

Why would you expect McDermott to throw one of his coaches under the bus in public?
That’s literally all that line was and it’s pretty obvious lol it also is making me chuckle that people think McDermott just invented the phrase ‘complimentary football’ and it somehow means we don’t want to move the ball as quickly on offense 😂

Last play of the game, holding norman at the edge that allowed Mixon to get the 1st down. 10/10 times thats called on the bills but i guess the official staring at him thought he was just grabbing and fixing his shoulder pad. What a nice guy.
Oh yea that was undoubtedly a hold but I had hit my bs limit by that point 😂

Don't worry about the trip, we get to enjoy finding out later that he'll be fined, sure it won't help us out at all but it's the thought that counts. 😡
It really was ridiculous…I’m not trying to say we deserved to win but I have never seen a play like that not called a trip in my life. Then right after a play I have never seen called as intentional grounding is called as intentional grounding 😂 what are the odds

Ive watched football religiously since the 1979 season. I have never seen an intentional grounding call where there was no pressure on the QB ever. Its literally one of the worst calls I've ever seen and took 3 points off the board potentially. Yes they still probably lose this game but these officials were pathetic.
The refs blew back to back to back calls on that one lol. Missed trip was horrible, intentional grounding was horrible, then there seems to have been an insane amount of confusion where neither coach knew the clock was running to close out the half

The grounding call was a joke. I get that it probably cost us a FG and changed the course of the game, but we gotta make our own breaks, too.
I have never seen grounding called on an option play like that with the qb under 0 pressure once in my entire life

Allen not happy with the grounding call. I thought the refs did what they could to limit our points there, but McD should not have punted with the clock running.
Nobody knew the clock was running…if anything the bengals got more screwed by referee incompetence with the clock there.. if we lined up to go for it they absolutely would’ve called a timeout

I know most don't agree but I think this is the game that keeps us from the playoffs. Not likely to win the division now unless Miami collapses. Can't really lose another game with a tough schedule coming up. Lost the head to head against a WC competitor. Too many conference losses against other WC competitors.
This coaching staff needs to go. Dorsey sucks. McD is an ok coach but I don't think good enough to get us over the hump. Our team has stagnated on both D and O.
I think division is more likely honestly. This is seeming like a 10-7 or 9-8 type division winner to me

Nice little hold on that one to seal the deal lol play would’ve been stopped short

I’m as impressed with the defense playing like this short handed as I am disappointed in the offense lol

Ugh...... Dalton. I love you man, but that can't happen. He's been such a revelation and, fumble aside, he is the 2nd best weapon on the team.
Mistakes happen. He knows it. He'll be better. But that was our chance to get back into this one. Sometimes it's not your night, though.
That was a much better drive overall, though. It's no coincidence it included 2 Allen runs. Even though it ended badly, I hope they take away the many positives that drive did have.
I don’t think there’s much he can do there…he got hit low and ragdolled through the air and there was another bengal there to poke it out

Well that sucked....nobody touched the ball either
Looked like a bengal might’ve poked it out while Kincaid was ragdolling through the air lol

The Bills offense has sunk so low they have to hope and cry for flags to actually gain yards. Pathetic how far they’ve fallen.
I mean they’ve been bad but I’d still like to see plain as day trips called lol that was a dangerous as heck play

Cincy has this game under control. They should punt to be honest.
Horrible decision by them there…Taylor is awful he’s propped up by a ton of talent on offense and a good DC

Obvious hold on diggs there

Just now, BillsFan130 said:
Are we really blaming the refs for this game?
They definitely have been bad.
But the bills are getting dominated and deserve to be losing by 2 scoresThey’re kind of both true here…I don’t think those two things are mutually exclusive. This could easily be a tie or one score game if the refs weren’t blowing textbook calls…whether we deserve it to be that is another story
