  1. 5 pages of complaints about a 2nd year player in 2 hours. Hindsight is 20-20.
  2. The playoffs start on MNF next week.
  3. Lets just win our remaining games and none of this matters.
  4. The story of the win, and it was recognized on National TV after the game, is the adversity that the team overcame once again. Playing in difficult weather is one thing, disrupting their work week by having to travel early in the week was another, and then the prospect of not getting back for Christmas was another that was probably on their minds too. Unfortunately, the Bills will not be returning home to their families tonight with the Blizzard raging and the airport closed. They will handle another curve ball that is beyond their control, and they will do it together. This looks like a special team that can do special things, even on days when they are not at their best.
  5. Today will be old style football. Run and stop the run. Emphasis on stopping the run. I think Allen will try to throw to build a lead and then set up the run game for later. I expect the Bears to be tough. Go Bills, get it done and get the next goal in your path - AFC East!
  6. The Jets suck again.
  7. Why borderline. How many safety’s do you take before him? He has been elite for awhile, we play way better with him in the game.
  8. I think Cinci restaurants were known to serve spaghetti noodles with chili on it or something like that ?
  9. I suspect it is his run defense and tackling.
  10. Yes, I saw that, and it concerned me. Typically, the shot gun snap is tougher than the hands under center snap. That was unusual, especially in cold, wet, and snow.
  11. No. I don't know why he was asking them to leave. Seems like an unusual thing for him to do.
  12. Defense not looking good? Coming into the game they held the Pats* to 10 and the Jets to 12 - with Von Miller and other key players out of the lineup/ Very illogical logic in bold. Our defense is not perfect, but it is one of the better ones in the league.
  13. I think that coming from behind, dominating the 4th quarter, keeping them off the field, and just winning the game is the best way to deflate their team and their weak-minded fan base. The weather was not a factor all day. It was even more dramatic and fun to see us dominate once the snow started to fall. The snow globe celebration scene was a perfect ending
  14. You can control that.
  15. The first down was irrelevant, we had enough downs and a time out to control the clock, which we did do perfectly. He probably could not see the marker. The issue is do you take the 6 or do you make the snapper snap, the holder hold, and the kicker kick in snowy, slippery conditions. The last play was not a gimme due to the field and weather conditions.
  16. Happy Victory Sunday! The Bills - Dolphins rivalry is back in full swing. Lots of crying in Dolphinland about the snowballs (ice balls). It seems all 12 of their fans were there last night and got hit. Great game last night. Especially the fourth quarter comeback. Allen was the difference.
  17. I guess you know the Sabres went over .500 today.
  18. Really looking forward to this. Of course, it is a must win against Miami always, no matter either team's record. The Bills have been on a good roll, doing it with better defense and less points. Would love to see the O break out tonight and the D remain super stingy. Go Bills!!!
  19. He was let go by the BN and now he sits in a basement with two knuckleheads doing some low-grade podcast. He has no inside information on the team or the league. You might like his contrarian point of view, but I don't get the uproar on twitter. Cancelling Jerry Sullivan is like cancelling nothing. The opposite is happening, and he is getting the attention he seeks.
  20. The offense is still one of the best in the NFL as evidenced by its 6th in scoring ranking, but it does appear to be slipping in production as the season progresses. There is a lack of big play talent after Allen and Diggs. I think the OL is a very mediocre group and the source of many problems. A stronger line would improve the running game and give Allen more time to find a receiver. Much of the Bill's success on offense comes from Allen improvising and making plays. The WR group is average, mostly because Davis has not progressed as a #2, and there is no effective replacement for Beasley in the slot. Knox seems to be an afterthought most games. The backup TEs are not good, and we get little production from the running backs with the exception of Motor (some games). How much of this regression is related to the Rookie OC Dorsey and his planning? I don't know but certainly some. Still, this offense is very good and with Allen at the helm it can be great on any given week. Right now, I would say that the defense is the stronger unit and has more depth to deal with injuries.
  21. Why would anyone listen to him or care what he has to say?
  22. It's called high expectations. Those three terrible losses were by a combines 8 points. This team is really good and has not peaked yet.
  23. Agree. Our offense is not that effective in weather.
  24. I will always take the Dub. Offense - Allen made the plays that were needed. Good game by Knox. Would like to see more Diggs and Davis. Would really like to see this team run better. It will be needed for home games. Gotta do better closing out games by getting first downs. Jets DL was tough to handle. ST - Bass made some big kicks in the rain. Punt block was disappointing. Defense - another fine job overall. Milano was huge again. Lots of people complaining about 3rd and long but the bottom line is they gave up only 10 points and got a few big turnovers too.
