Eh, I’m not going to complain about Davis but I feel he has been a slight disappointment so far as a #2 this season. He just needs more consistent play from week to week. I will happily take the projection to 50-1000-8. No one could complain about 20 yd/catch. Comparing him to Don Beebe makes no sense. They played in different eras. The Kelly era Bills ran the ball a lot more. Beebe was a #3 with Buffalo, Davis is expected to be a #2 this season.

Yes.

The loss in KC was painful, 13 seconds, we would have beat Cincinnati, etc But what you say here is FALSE. Last year we lost in the Divisional playoffs. In 2019 we lost in the Conference playoffs. We wnet further in 2019. It is a FACT that we were closer to the SB in 2019 than we were in 2020. This should not even be a debate but for the emotion of having KC on the ropes and then blowing it. The excuses are made by fans who just assume we would have beat Cincinnati and then the Rams. We will never know that. The only FACT out there, the only thing written in the history books, shows that we made it further in 2019 than we did in 2020.

The first 7 games are over. We have a ton of injuries on both sides of the ball. Other teams are good too and they have seen all the film they need to see. We are how we are. Allen is the reason we are a contender. You know nothing about his elbow so why bother speculating. We are not going to win every game by 3 or 4 TDs. It is not happening at this time of year. We are still a top team in the AFC.

You don't know what putrid is.

Great win by the Bills. Hard fought game against a tough opponent, on the road, on a short week, after overcoming big adversity the week prior. Not to mention all the starters and key players that were out today. Some of the fans here gave up and do nothing but blame and point fingers. The Bills are not going to win every game by 38-10. They are not going to win every game - period. Some of the same fans complaining about losing close games are now complaining about winning a close game. Anyone who has been a Bills fan, check that - a football fan, would be happy to get that win and would be looking at the positives to build on. Next Thursday night in Foxboro. Expect a difficult challenge and a tough game. It will be like this every week, no matter who we play or were it is. Enjoy the rest of Thanksgiving and Go Bills!

Or, our OL depth is at least serviceable. We won on a short week with backups in 3 positions.

Actually, according to the story line his family was from Naples, Italy. Not Sicilian.

Surprised that they changed 2 positions with one injury. Not that I disagree with it either, just surprised that McD did that.

Tre will know when he is ready to go. All this guessing is not productive and the speculating that he doesn't want to play is really bad.

I say that play on TV, with him falling over after the throw - I worried that he got stuck in the turf.

They came home instantly - they clicked their heel 3 times and said "there is no place like home".

If Gilliam makes his block its a score with any running back

True. Every other team had the same rules and constraints. The Kelly era Bills could run the ball when they needed to, which is a big reason why they won at home in the cold and the wind. They were built for the wintry weather.

I think you are over-reacting but he bottom line is we have played this season with mostly all backups in the secondary and even down to 3rd team players. They held up for awhile and they are finally showing a few cracks. We need more heat on the QB to help the young and inexperienced secondary.

All the worrying about the Chiefs is not productive. Bills had a harder schedule, we all knew that going in. Add in that the AFC East is now a better division than the AFC West. Any team can win in any week. The Chiefs are not a perfect team. The Bills just need to work on what they can control.

They Lions are the traditional NFL Thanksgiving game, going way back to 1934. They usually are a tough game on Thanksgiving even though they have not been consistently good in many decades. Bills should win but this one but the Lions team is improving so I think it will be a close game.

We need to improve the WR2 position and try moving Davis to #3 slot. Crowder hurt is not helping and even he did not seem like a natural fit. Shakir will hopefully break through at some point.

Fixed. The Kelly era Bills had a better OL, several excellent blocking TEs, big powerful Fullbacks, and Thurman Thomas backed up by Kenny Davis. We could run when we wanted to run.

Could be the elbow. I also believe that teams have figured out our passing game. Double Diggs, put CB1 on Davis - we don't get enough out of WR3 (we miss the Beasley of 2-3 years ago), sometimes we ignore the TE, sometimes Allen goes deep and ignores the RB in the passing game. Throwing shorter and spreading the ball out to more players should help set up the bigger plays. Josh needs to be patient.

Dan Darragh was not very good at all. You may be thinking of Dennis Shaw, who was the offensive rookie of the year 1970, he was mediocre after that. Darragh SUMMARY Games 17 Cmp% 42.9 Yds 1353 Y/A 4.6 TD 4 Int 22

Not a thing at all. Diggs has passion to win which is great. He exercised self control when talking to McDernmott. Just the media being dramatic.

It is all about the W and we got it without relying on Allen to gain 95% of the yards. Allen gets a break and no turnovers. We out rushed Cleveland and they out passed us, so that was interesting and unexpected. Bills Mafia assisted player travel to the airport making a nice side story. Game balls to Bass, Milano, Poyer, Singletary and Cook. This was a rough week with injuries, sickness, missed practices, extreme weather, and a crazy trip to the airport to play our home game on the road. They started slow but they persevered and they can build on it. One complaint was the uneven officiating. I don't know what defensive pass interference is anymore. On to Detroit again next week The team will get some rest and will likely get very little practice due to the Thursday game.

Pretty much all nickel with exception of short yardage packages.

Sabres are on tonight.
