I was really hoping we'd get a home playoff game, now obviously we won't. I will say tho: we play better on the road in a lot of ways. Visiting a suddenly falling Houston squad would be a possible playoff win

Crazy effort, but we didn't play smart and that's why we lost. Better punting and pass protection and we are one game away from being the number one seed. Allen wasn't good, pass blocking was trash, wrs and tes were bad. I honestly think we aren't built to be a great cold weather team. We are too small

it comes down to much more than just the QB, but we are gonna get a really good idea of a direct comparison in three days. the game will come down to if the bills can put a wrinkle in the base d (or nickle if they wanna do that all day) that forces baltimore into 3rd and long, but the story will be the battle of the best 2nd year QBs

i'd take him. he has a lot of skill, he just hasn't lived up to his potential.

joe in winsloe, the Allen crow server may have a meal to eat in this thread!

Bills 28 Ravens 13 our D solves the puzzle, the O keeps moving the ball and converts 4 TDs out of or 8 promising drives. Baltimore turns the ball over to us twice, their long meandering drives fail to punch it in and they get stuffed on 4th down a couple times.

bro, hammer on the nail!

i think we run base D, but do a lot of blitzing and delay blitzing. we obviously have to stop the big play, but just forcing a negative play and/or penalty early on a drive will result in some punts. our d, at least in principal, is set up to force long drives, which is what the ravens do well. we just need to make some plays behind the line to force 3rd and long and then we will get some wins. on O, we have to keep doing what we have been doing. use the raven's aggressiveness against them and get to the edge or hit the quick passes for yac. i do think we will be able to go over the top once they start biting on the underneath stuff too. super hard match up, but on paper at least we have our plan cut out for us. we just need not to get blown off the ball.

I want to throw these refs in the hudson

Garbage call

Awesome everything except our garbage kicker

Woooo

Awful awful set of downs Fatbol needs to put in ds

These announcers need to eat glass

No call bs

Garbage drive. Showed up vs the run but did Jack in coverage. We need to blitz and mix coverage to have a chance

im high on the joy of hopeful bills fandom. it's awesome, but the come down will make you angry for decades.

loser team lost to pitz! they coulda helped us! i have a feeling (hope, really) that cinci can sneak a win over balti and the pats, giving us a shot at the division.

bills 27 doncs 13

cowboys and it isnt close

i've kind of studied roman ever since he started at SF. he made michigan's harbaugh look a lot better than he is IMO. his O is borderline genius in it's blocking and match up schemes. where it falls short (as all schemes do fall short at some point) is that it is cumbersome and very inflexible. they have so many formations and packages that you are likely to have pre snap penalties and have very little time to audible and go uptempo. he may have figured some of that out in baltimore, however. he's kind of like what prime rex ryan was on D, but on O. complicated, but in roman's case it is complicated to scheme and staff, rather than complicated to execute, which was rex's downfall, and very tailor made to one thing. i'd like to throw in my usual two cents that he does not form anything around his talent, but has a system which he puts talent into. a coach like billecheck does the same thing, but has enough wrinkles and knows so much about football and his opponent that it seems like he can make anything work, but in reality he's got a philosophy and that's clear in all of his teams.

i figure he's gonna get about 12 a year, 15-20 guaranteed

he's like a tyrod taylor with more talent and most importantly a green light. tyrod had so little trust in his own ability to make passing plays (or fear of turnovers) that all the d had to do was take away the first read or two and he just turned into a turtle in the pocket. jackson hasn't shown that at all -- altho the pass rush from the chargers in the play offs just smoked him. let's hope the bills can do that to him in buffalo too.

brown is a stud, but i agree we need another target. some size and speed, the 2008 prototypical guy would be perfect.

Brady has thrown three balls which should have been picks.
