KD in CA Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 As soon as they drove right down the field and scored after that I knew it was over. Once it became a shootout I knew we weren't going to compete. We don't have a QB A shootout when only one side has the guns is more like a massacre. There's still 11 minutes left in my delayed recording but I knew there was zero point to watching the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCbillsfan Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 They played like they had the game in the bag. The bills sideline was all too happy after going up 24 - 9. They thought it was over and then they couldn't do anything right afterwards. And they were right. It was over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tu-Toned Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 (edited) To be honest with you, I felt that we were probably going to blow this game after Rex had them go into prevent at the end of the first half and letting them easily get into field goal range. Rex is not very good at putting the foot on the neck of teams! Of course my opinion changed when we came out like gangbusters in the second half and then back again right after the first three and out!

Freddie's Dead Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I thought to much time on the clock But once we went wild cat on 1/2nd down I knew it was over Lynn was out of plays That sequence was the beginning of the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF Bills Fan Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 We were ahead 24-9 and I was in the stadium- Raiders fans were patting my back and shaking my hand and cursing their team. I left because I knew we would lose. I just sensed it. I got on BART home. My expectations were met. I just knew. we are not a team of destiny or consequence.

Dr. K Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 There was a shot of the Bills players on the sidelines when the score was 24-23, I think, that told me they had lost the game. There was such a look of defeat on the faces of the players, including Tyrod, that I knew they were done, even though there was a whole quarter left to play. They knew they were going to lose and had no faith. The looked like zombies. Please fire Rex now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALLEN1QB Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 You guys have finally convinced me Tyrod Taylor does suck he locks onto one receiver the whole time does not scan the field and refuses to throw over the middle it's time to move on from this failed experiment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Sack Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I told my buddy here they come. Surely Carr was going to find his stroke. The game changed and it seemed like we went into a shell defense. Instead of bending we broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flomoe Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I hate to say this, because this organization needs stability, but the coaching staff needs to go. Not because they can't coach but they still apparently think that Taylor is the QB that can lead them to the playoffs. Sure the D sucked but Taylor cannot put the game away. The O had every chance to put the game away against a very, very weak D and Tyrod just can't find or hit anyone open. Once they went 3 and out, it was over. The Offense is not designed to play from behind and Taylor basically sucks in that role. It's time to move on, and if that means to give EJ a shot to see if he can do something the rest of the year, hell, why the f¥ck not. Playoffs are out of the picture AGAIN.

cale Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 (edited) You watch.1) We'll fire Rex ( I want this) 2) We'll clean house (I only partially want this) 3) We'll ship Tyrod, keep EJ. Drop development on Cardale ( i don't want this) Someone will pick up Tyrod (Denver?) and Gilmore (Oakland?) and they'll play lights out in a better scheme. Meanwhile we will be in the NFL wilderness for another 3 years.FML.Cale Edited December 5, 2016 by cale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarleyNY Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Up by 15 and I said "Time to lose in the most Bills-y of fashion". I was only half joking. Oakland scored a TD to close to 8 and I thought "Well, there it is." I knew what was coming at that point. Up by 15, I think it was mostly a self-defense mechanism. But you could just see Oakland step up and the Bills step down after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livinginthepast Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 When they let the Raiders come right down the field and score to make it 24-16 I knew we would lose. You cannot allow a team back in the game like that when you should be stepping on their throat. The D has done that in 3 key losses this year. Jets, Miami and now the Raiders. Thats on Rex and his bro and their schemes, thats on their lack of adjustments. Just not good enough when you have a hot and cold offensive unit like we do that cannot finish the job!

Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 My first thought was now the defense has to hold them. As soon as the defense starting folding the next drive I honestly felt it was going to be all over soon. What a terrible feeling I expect any more and don't feel anything at all but malaise. Guess I have lost that loving feeling. until we get a real QB and probably management nothing changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildBills Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 How much did you guys think we were going to lose by? We knew it was going to happen, but did we expect 4 unanswered touchdowns? We could have literally sent no one onto the field during that time and given up fewer points. Rex Ryan's team, for a significant part of the second half, was worse than not even playing. I kept telling my Dad. Don't worry. They'll lose. Just wait and see. It never fails with the Bills. It's absolutely sickening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarleyNY Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 It is pretty astonishing that Bills fans can confidently predict an otherwise unlikely comeback, including a two point conversion, simply because it's the Bills. I did. Again, it might just be a defense mechanism to save me from being disappointed, but I called it. Oakland has an excellent offense, there was plenty of time left and Carr has a slew of comebacks this season so it was pretty logical too. At the point I made the prediction I thought we'd lose on a late 4th quarter drive by Carr - or maybe even squeak it out for a close win. I didn't see it getting out of hand and losing by two TDs though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
