Totally agree. not that it isn’t classy but i’m kinda done donating to other team charities. rather support our own guys now...unless it’s something super special and organic like the Dalton to Boyd play was.

No doubt. no one is denying that it worked out perfectly. after our 1 third Qtr possession (TD), Baltimore was about to make it 10-6 or 10-10 and have the wind in their favor for the 4th. It could’ve been the difference in the game but Taron Johnson changed the game entirely with one play.

I agree he made the correct call last night. Obviously. We Won. Been watching Bills for nearly 50 years. I still contend that in all wind games at Orchard Park (from the west like last night), the points are overwhelmingly in favor of the wind at your back. it’s probably like 2:1. So since we deferred, I would’ve kicked off into the wind so Buffalo could have it at their backs for Q2, knowing Baltimore would take it for Q4. But obviously in this specific game, McD’s strategy worked out. Thankfully

Guys, I got that feeling again....

Someone has to get that sign dusted off from the mid-90's... "We're Back!!!! Deal with it America" -
Let me start by saying I'm thrilled with the win.. I couldn't even sleep last night. Just an unreal season and it's still going. One thing that bothered me. and this is the 2nd time under McDermott in a high wind game (happened vs. Philly last year i believe). Even though we WON the coin toss we somehow allowed our opponent to have the wind at their backs in the 2nd and 4th quarters. Can someone explain how that happened? That can't be allowed to happen. The 2nd and 4th are the two most important quarters because they are more drawn out. There are timeouts, 2-minute warning, etc.. Teams usually go up tempo before the end of halves and there are more plays. There are usually last second FG attempts at the end of 2nd Qtr and end of games. The 1st and 3rd quarters are usually fast and end quickly. We basically had one possession in the 3rd quarter with the wind and scored a TD with it.. Fortunately Taron Johnson gave us a second TD in that Qtr. If it was a close game, Baltimore would have had the wind and better chance to kick a game winning FG at the buzzer. I need to understand why McD has allowed this to happen in such a big game.

how many tackles is Poyer gonna bounce off tonight? he sucks

just my first half opinion Feel very lucky that a HOF kicker misses two kicks D is playing as well as they can possibly play vs Baltimore. Prob won’t hold up. Offense is lost. too one dimensional. the narrative that Josh sucks in cold/wind is holding up. Need points and some running/ball control mixed in or our team of destiny will lose like 20-9. Stop going for home runs when you need 5 to keep a drive alive. it’s almost impossible to complete passes downfield. If Baltimore ends up WITH the wind for the 2nd and 4th quarters it’s a huge fail somewhere. That means we should not have deferred and taken the ball.

Not sure about emotional letdown. seems like in the NFL teams play better when they are business-like and under control. Bills can’t be over hyped tonight. just play their game and stay loose. Glad the game is in our stadium though. We Won’t have to hear any cheering for Ravens plays.

I hear ya. my wife asked me the other day about the Sabres and my fandom. i used to be a huge hockey fan. I told her, put it this way.. the last time the Sabres were in the playoff my twins were in first grade. Now they are 16 and learning to drive. it’s a disgrace to be down that long. I will hold out hope that they surprise me this season, but not looking good early.
