Passing really feels silly out there

Our dt play vs the run is cheeks. Double one and just wash the other, and we hope our dbs will fly up and make a stop

That was a blessing, but what a punch by rapp and heads up run by Christian

It's because of the balance he runs with, also why he doesn't look that sudden but still skates past people regularly. Who was that Seattle RB a while back, warren? Kinda reminds me of him.

Big ole QB throwing a dart to a Sasquatch wr. This game is like when my 8yo son and I play Madden on snow mode.

Lol, that tv show segment is negative IQ

Wind and snow had no impact on that toss

That was awesome!

That's a weak call

This run d is honestly pathetic

Not gonna be a lot of passing, and I think the refs aren't gonna call much because they will have trouble seeing, so it might be a really fast game. We could use a couple stops early. If we can get them to 3rd and passing, purdy might not be able to get the ball out cleanly

Well, that was a nice drive. Real snow game out there, no footing

D had two good plays on that drive, plugged up the run on first, tackled well on 2nd w the RB screen, and sf got unlucky w the miscue on 3rd

We are basically a dome team

Their back ups have us on rollerscates. Looks like the Cinco playoff debacle

Bad start, no kinkaid sucks

Healthier, more refreshed, and at home, let's put some foot to azz!

it might be, the talent level is lower particularly with injuries. as i said before, what counts is the playoffs. if we can be OK in the playoffs vs the better teams, it will be our best playoff performance on D in the current era and gives us a really solid chance to win.

the bills always have a solid regular season d. the test will be in the playoffs, even vs teams we beat (cough, kc, cough) in the regs. injuries are a bit of a reasonable excuse, but there have been just too many melt downs. they showed new wrinkles to confuse mahomes in our last win, they need to keep that up and make an impact vs the better teams in the playoffs. if we beat detroit at detroit in the regs, it means we will have beaten the best team in each conference in the regs. there is a high chance that if we are not eliminated we will have to face them both again. our d has killed us in ever playoff loss, and some wins too, so basically babich will either be a zero or a hero. not really fair to him, but that's the nfl.

it's hilarious and tasteless. whynotboth.gif (i have no idea how to embed here)

my brain tells me (assuming we are healthy and such) that it's another multi lead change game going down to the wire, but for some reason based on what we saw on sunday night, i think a healthy bills team can win decisively vs kc, especially at home. adding back brown might be the biggest singe change maker, a few of those outside runs might get broken open and that changes everything on the drive. if you throw in a two handed cooper, coleman, and kinkaid, it bumps samuel and shakir down the ladder in terms of who covers them (or else they can leave coleman one on one on the outside w a lesser corner, but that is a dream match up for us), and gives kc fits. also, the pass rush and coverage scheme were so effective at disrupting mahomes, who has not been good at all this season. if we are actually full power on DL w smoot and carter making contributions, and have LBs 1 and 2 (for the first time since what, the early miami game last year?) playing, i think that translates to an extra turnover or punts for kc, and might also force a FG instead of TD. i might be overly optimistic, and be thinking that mcd will continue to coach smart when his playoff history tells us the opposite, but frankly i just don't think kc is great this season. detroit, pittz, and as a match up baltimore are way scarier. the analogy of kc vs philly last year is very apt.

This is some shockingly illuminating analysis! great way to look at it. you do have to add in the extra points (and bad field position if he misses) from trying kicks you never would have with bass, from say the 50 or something, but if you add 6 more points (say you only attempt them at the end of halves and games where you don't lose the field position) you are still in the 3rd at best range of value, and that's not taking the contract impact into account.

I represent that comment. our window was closed after we got hamstrung by the diggs and knox contracts and the injuries to milano and von, but in the wall beside the window there is a Josh Allen cut out sized hole he just ran through.

im kinda touting the iggles as my dark horse nfc team, i think goff might turn into a pumpkin and the iggles have sb experience. if we play (and beat) the iggles in the bowl, that would be a tremendous opening thursday game, philly at buff on the opening thursday night.

the team and the coaches who showed up (williams and that white guy at lb, and cam lewis instead of TJ, just shocking downgrades at the positions we need most based on our scheme and what the ravens do) which had a totally green coleman and no cooper and a hurt samuel (and waste or roster spot mvs) was never gonna win that game. baltimore had a great plan, we did not, and with the above mentioned holes (not to mention rapp who has been a real bright spot, and shakir who is our best wr going down!) it would be too much to overcome on the road. now, if brady and babich adjusted better on the fly (some change on D, not having the stupid trick play) we might have made a game of it, but no way we win. if we can get fully healthy (milano, kinkaid, no cast coop, coleman, spencer brown, carter, smoot) for the detroit game and we still get blow out, then i'll concede im being a homer and we just don't have what it takes for these kind of match ups. if we beat detroit, then im confident we beat the ravens at home in the playoffs.
