This game shows what Josh Allen can be with the offensive line giving him time & a running game that is effective.
My son was thrilled when when Buffalo drafted Josh Allen. He wanted Allen above every QB in the 2018 draft. It took me a season or 2 to see how right my son was. Now, after seeing him play & his character on & especially off the field, I wouldn’t trade him for any other QB in the NFL!

I love the thread title. I was just describing this game to a friend who is a big baseball fan in this baseball analogy:
Josh Allen just threw a no hitter/ perfect game & Buffalo won 15-0!

We went to the Bills game in Kansas City in October. Josh played a great game there in a very hostile environment.
Arrowhead is built with incredible acoustics. Even after the long halftime weather delay & with the stadium only 60% full, the crowd noise was still deafening.
I know we are capable of beating them again, but it’s going to take another great offensive & defensive effort. But right now I’m just replaying in my mind the best all around Buffalo game in many, many years!

Anyone who objectively studies COVID data, or has a relative who works in health care (like my daughter), knows the hospitalization, ICU & death rates are dramatically improved if you are fully vaccinated. Today that means 3 doses.
That is why NFL policy has favored vaccinated players over unvaccinated players. The latest NFL policy changes are even more favorable to vaccinated players.
Any NFL player who is still trying to argue for more favorable policies for unvaccinated players is wasting their time. There is no chance of that happening.
From a purely sporting perspective, the teams with the highest percent of vaccinated players have a competitive advantage vs teams with less vaccinated players. Obviously, the human component is far more important than the sporting component. See paragraph one for the human component.

I know it was a gut wretching way to lose, but I feel much more encouraged after this game than I did at halftime.
For Buffalo, it’s getting very close to win or go(stay) home time. If we show that playoff mentality from the opening kickoff, we have a chance to salvage this season.

Is there an explanation for why our star WR came out of the game multiple times on the final drive in regulation?
Our star WR has had 2 bad games in a row. He’s had 3 long passes that he couldn’t locate, & he just hasn’t gotten open on big plays. I was hoping we would try Davis on the last couple of 3rd down passes instead of Diggs. -

Bills need to sign Fournette to a deal.
Or any other good RB. If Beane has learned anything this season, I hope he’s learned having a good RB is still important.

Tampa Bay is playing like a very good NFL offense, the O line blocks, the receivers know to shorten routes when the other team blitzes, the RB has vision & breaks tackles. We’re currently not doing any of this.

How about one play that sums up our running backs lack of vision -
If he bounces this outside instead of turning it in we're talking about how our team put together a great drive into that horrible wind and took the lead. No vision.
Thank you for posting that video. For anyone who says it’s only an OL problem, just watch that video again. Any NFL RB with average field vision scores easily on that run.
That lack of vision cost us 7 points. We ended up missing the field goal on that drive. Yes Diggs dropped a TD pass, but this was the equivalent to dropping an easy TD pass!
The NFL today does favor the passing game, but RBs still matter.

Not saying the Rbs cannot be upgraded by Contact happens behind the line al lot. And for some reason we don’t like to run outside much.
We don’t run outside much because our RBs lack of speed. Ironically, if Moss would’ve just made a simple cut outside to the right, he would’ve had a walk in TD.
I like Beane, but he whiffed on both 3rd round RBs & compounded the problem by not addressing those mistakes this past draft/off season.

Absolutely. And anyone who complains about Allen's play tonight, oh look in super slow motion Allen should have seen this open WR when running for his life, is a fool. I'm actually in awe of how well he threw the ball tonight. Three huge drops and the failure to make a great catch in the end zone by Knox (I won't call that a drop but a great play there and we win the game) cost us the game.
The announcers didn’t heap much praise on Allen at all. They commented mostly on any missed throws, but didn’t comment a lot on several great plays he made. If our receivers could have caught the passes, Allen had 3 or 4 highlight reel plays.-

Definitely a bad read.
An all out blitz didn’t give Allen a chance to survey the field.-

I read comments but rarely post, but I just had to post after this game.
Buffalo must get a good RB, actually 2 good RBs. Moss had an easy walk in TD if he had any vision to cut to the right.
Josh Allen played a great game, especially in these conditions and he just didn’t get enough help. Way too many dropped passes. With the conditions tonight, it’s amazing that drops were an even bigger problem than the wind blowing the ball around.
Edmonds isn’t a first round level LB. I wouldn’t re sign him. Belichick won with 3 pass attempts…sad.

Refs and bad calls have ramifications
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
I coached several years of my son’s football & basketball games. I never was a ref. I did however learn to be friendly with refs and I almost always felt I got a fair deal. Of course, I always figured elementary and middle school refs are about as good as elementary and middle school players! That keeps your perspective as a coach!
With NFL refs, my take is they know they are being watched on every play by millions of people, dozens of cameras & almost every call is instantly reviewable. They also know they are being watched by their spouses, kids, friends, etc. No one wants to screw up in front of everybody they know & love. I usually get upset at ref calls multiple times every game, but I keep myself from fixating on them because of my previous points.
