[The day after]

Perplexed 

11-6

 

 

[The defense sucked....again]

The D has been decimated with injuries but I'm still so confused as to the plan and the play of the guys up front.

 

Oliver, Miller, Epenesa, Phillips, Lawson, Settle, and Boogie and NOBODY can get pressure enough to make plays or force throws? And Leslie and sean (the D whisperer) dont have the brains to maybe adjust the scheme or plan when 6 defensive back/lb's are out? It's mind blowing no adjustments have been made there.

 

Will probably throw a 1st round pick there again next year thinking that'll solve it...

Seeing that still shot of a wide open motor on the last pick literally makes me nauseous

He's got a huge bank account, a big house and a hot girlfriend. What more does he need?

dont forget about the Gillette commercial too /s

[Poor coaching by McDermott is becoming a theme]

"With McDermott’s Bills, they learn tough lessons, vow to fix it and be better, and then continue to make the same mistakes over and over in close games. Rinse, repeat."

 

Saw this on twitter and couldnt agree more...

And he is our entire offense. I will not blame him for this loss. 

I love allen but fumbling a snap in the endzone is peterman level bad....not to mention the 2 picks in the redzone. What more does this kid have to do wrong to have you accept that hes capable of blowing a game? It's almost all on him today (frazier, D, injuries, play calling close runner ups).

[I'm done.]

Haha I feel your pain buddy. I wound up watching the final Q and OT in a local DC bar (stopped in to pickup food) with 5 people in it, and 1 was a diehard vikings fan. I mean what are the odds of that? I'm not going to stop watching or following them but losses like this and in this fashion are unfathomable. And of course all my NFL friends texting me "OMG" and "I cant believe this" during the last Q and OT doesnt help....it sucks to be the BFLO guy in a different city but oh well.

 

I understand your pain and frustration completely, and I won't be the guy that says "but it will feel so great when we finally do win". Maybe just give it a week or two off. I won't say "good riddance" or "bye" like some stubborn folks here either...It sucks to feel this way. You'll bounce back.

They prepare for the Bills offense. Yes, there's a big difference and Keenum is a big downgrade. You don't think the Vikings will be ready if Keenum plays? We should really mess with them and play Barkley

 

I dont disagree that the "Will he or wont he" smoke game McDermott plays is meaningless, but he's been doing that for years now and does so at every chance so I'm not surprised if that's an angle he's going at with this too. And no, I do think the Vikings will be ready regardless but the game plan is a bit different if it's Allen vs any other QB IMO.

Keeping the Vikings guessing is not really a thing

How not? I think it's a big difference facing allen vs keenum. Even if the chance of playing allen is ~ 1% lol.

Encouraging...probably just wanted to get him an extremely limited practice in to keep MIN guessing, as well as still the opportunity to play sunday vs having to rule him out. Still think Case plays.

[Bad Luck Bills Merchandise?]

lmao. I'm not a superstitious guy at all but I have recently noticed that we lose when I'm not wearing a bills jersey watching. It's gotten to a point lately where I'm wearing it alone watching...lol. I wasn't in it last sunday vs NY, will most certainly be in it this weekend.

Hold on... Serious question here... Why does it seem like in a 24 hour period the general consensus has gone from "He would probably be good enough to play against the Vikings but it would be wise to let him sit a week" to "Uh oh! We might be losing him for 4 weeks!"    Is it just because he missed another practice?  Is it something that was said somewhere?   Is it because Josh looked "sick and depressed" in today's clip of him running off the practice field?  As far as I can tell, nothing has come out today that would make me feel any different from yesterday, so.. what am I missing? 😂

Because there's a big part of the fanbase that is insufferable if the bills dont go 17-0, win every game by 30, and have Allen as MVP. Go look at superbowl winning team's and you'll find each team had their own hurdles every year.

I like that more. I dont see a 3-5 packers team with that many holes trading away valuable draft picks for a rental WR. NYG makes much more sense.

[When does Benford transition to Safety?]

I've been actually wondering since a few wks back when Tre initially came off the IR if they would consider moving Tre back to safety, paired with Poyer (who was "healthy" at the time). This would give him ability to move around the field more "freely", vs CB where there's a lot of cutting/unknown movements. I know they were testing it White's rookie season, but obviously kept him at CB.

 

Wonder what they'll do back there and with Tre but it's interesting to consider.
