Pats dline kinda had their way with our oline which was a lot of the problem in this last one tbh…I think we’re getting a little over reactionary to that. When the oline plays as well as what you described the bills are pretty much unstoppable

Rasul was great that year, then bad last year. Playing well again in Miami though I wonder if he was injured last year or something

Feels like teams know that and try to bait him into stepping into delayed pressure tbh. Still think we shoulda won that game pretty easily regardless if we clean up the slop a bit but the pats did a lot of things really well defensively without even having to get into the wr matchups thing

I’d say held them to 3 tbh…the other 3 points was the pats taking over in fg range after a fumble

the game was close because the defense held on all but two drives and on top of that they gave the offense the ball back with a late stop with a chance to ice it and they failed josh isn’t the only player on offense lol guys were committing penalties,missing blocks, fumbling the ball all night. The offense was terrible if the point is ‘the defense should be able to full bail out the offense when they have a really bad game because the offense has done that for the defense ’ then that would be a discussion. but if we’re talking about what went wrong in this game specifically, not blaming the offense for at least 50% of it is insane to me and that’s being pretty generous. I wouldn’t argue if someone settled for it was half the offenses fault but it’s significantly higher than that the way I saw it

Oh yea it definitely could’ve been…I was just commenting on how weird it is that bills fans of all people would take 40ish minutes of great defensive play for granted 😂. the flip side of how people are criticizing the defense in this one would be Josh absolutely lighting it up for 40 ish mins then jumping all over him for two bad drives because the defense couldn’t seal the game on the final drive. Everyone blames the defense in that situation too though haha idk how people can have it both ways. It was very much a team loss

Lol I don’t understand this at all…if the defense was anything less than great in the first half that game is over at halftime. Played great early, then struggled, then got the big three and out needed late. it’s a team loss idk why everyone is trying to blame one thing. I’d personally blame the offense more than the defense…but wouldn’t mind the opposite if that. To only blame the defense though is wild

Game would’ve been a pats blowout by halftime if the defense wasn’t playing very well in the first half…this was very much a team loss. Shouldn’t even be in a game with that many turnovers/penalties pretty much gave up 3 points despite the pats having good drive starts. The other 3 points the bills offense fumbled and put the pats instantly in fg range

The fan vibes are that brady always had stacked WR rooms because of that short time with Randy moss where they ironically didn’t win a Super Bowl lol. Brady was playing a lot like Josh is right now style-wise with similar wr talent for a lot of his career. His best wr was usually a slot guy

That chiefs jags game was a reminder of what the vision is for the bills for me and it was a nice reset lol.. the jags have talent at wr and the chiefs dbs were straight up mugging them all game with little to no calls all the same. Jags got kinda fortunate they drew that late pi the way that game was going. It was the same story when the bills had Diggs/beasley/brown…chiefs had little to no problem locking all those guys up when it mattered I think leaning hard towards the run game is the best way to neutralize a lot of those exotic blitzes/handsy dbs the chiefs are running

I think the ravens made their team worse with that trade and it was a straight up panic move tbh lol Oweh is gonna pick up statistically on the chargers I bet. obviously we could make some moves with picks but I think that oweh trade will probably go down as an example of what not to do if I had to guess

The chiefs loss def muddied the waters a bunch…I think the more pessimistic crowd thought they had turned it on week 4 and were just gonna coast.

I’m trying to go through the schedules of everyone…it’s a really weird year the pats could be just ok and win 10 still based on schedule alone which has really mucked up the wildcard path 😂 still seems like a bit of a longshot but we’ll know more if the jags can sneak through rams and Seahawks at 1-1 or better…the afc south teams still have to play eachother a bunch of times so it’s hard to tell what’s gonna happen. If they all trade wins you could have colts,jags, and pats at 10 ish wins two of which would be wildcards. then maybe third wildcard is Houston if they continue turning it around or second place in afc west which might be 10 wins for that team.. north seems cooked with all the injuries..maybe Baltimore could go on a run when they get healthier but I think it’ll be hard to crack 9 wins

I legit felt the same way and thought I was crazy haha like yea it’s great statistically but felt like an even bigger missed chance for us

I think they’re saying the 7 seed will win 10 and be in good tiebreaker shape and a few other teams will win 10 and miss. I read it as ‘the only way you can be absolutely sure you get in no matter what is winning 11’

Chris Jones feels like he’s slightly washed (by his normal standards) or phoning it in. I really wouldn’t be surprised if the bills ran all over these guys if he doesn’t turn it around Credit to karlaftis though who I always thought was massively overrated/ just capitalizing off playing with Chris jones. Feels like he’s stepped up but it’s not enough to offset jones going from incredible to average so far.. could def turn it around though it might just be an effort thing

Felt like the chiefs got away with a ton of defensive holding in this one as they often do to me. Was kinda surprised they flagged that late one based on the rest of the game tbh…I wonder if they were aware they blew that Trevor INT dpi and were actively trying to even it out

Man the afc south really throwing a wrench in the wildcard path so far. Houston looks like they’re gonna climb into the race too it seemed impossible someone like the chiefs could miss a couple weeks ago but now I’m starting to see some paths

Kinda all hinges on Chris jones for me…he looks like he just doesn’t like playing football anymore suddenly.. not sure if he’s regressing or just goin through the motions until playoffs all the talk of mahomes being amazing has masked it a bit but he’s been equally as responsible for huge plays in critical moments of playoff games this jags game was pretty jarring because it felt like the refs did everything they can to keep the chiefs in that game up until that last drive and they lost anyway. everyone is probably overreacting a bit to that one game

The afc south lookin pretty good record is trouble for them wildcard wise.. it’s shaping up to be a bumpier road competing for a wildcard than I thought a couple weeks ago IF they’ve gotta go that route might be the team we just lost to that potentially keeps the chiefs out funny enough. Still a longgggg way to go though they could easily win the division still. Really don’t have to panic in the division race unless they lose to Denver or LAC again

Is anyone good anymore 😂. The team that won this game didn’t even look good lol

it feels like the fan vibes of games completely warp what actually happened haha that feels like the theme of the day…I’m having the same discussion about the bills chiefs playoff games Bills were throwing all game that wind game i can see going either way on the comparison…wind game was more missed chances and yesterday was more self inflicted wounds so it’s definitely different flavors. Felt kinda like the pats loss to the Steelers to me and I’m pretty sure the football gods wanted to even out that pats loss and the bills weird ravens win 😂. Feels like both teams are where they should be record wise now lol

Because the pats only ran the ball we were outcoached? I don’t really agree. I think the pats scored probably the maximum amount of points possible for running the ball that much and then dodged like 50 different bullets to hold on and win. that exact game plan probably loses them that game 9 times out of 10 and it was just dumb luck that they didn’t look kinda foolish for only running the football lol

I think they’re a mediocre team tbh we just played dreadfully in a completely self inflicted way…saints would’ve won by 20 if we did that last week. They might get in the playoffs on a weak schedule it really reminds me a lot of that wind game year

He still isn’t one…wasn’t one his last year+ in Buffalo either. Seemed like he had that one nice improvised deep ball and then ran the same little hitch route the whole rest of the game had a great game but it was pretty much a role that any of our army of slot guys could’ve performed lol
