Just Joshin' Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Being aggressive worked well for the Falcons last year. Â They were forced to burn their time outs. With one more TO maybe that last drive would have been different. Time was on the Bills side - use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 For god's sake, it's not conservative when you have a lead and not the best receiver corps. Also kicking two 50+ yard FGs is the opposite of conservative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
34-78-83 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I don't want to be Debbie downer today. I'm just as excited as the next guy. But calling those three run plays after the Hyde interception cannot happen weekly. It will end up costing the bills games. They have to be more aggressive at those times. Go bills. Can't believe we're 3-1! Totally agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domdab99 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 The real mistake was not going for it on 4th and goal from the 1 and make it a 10 point game. Kicking the FG there was weak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 It was my only criticism all game. They were playing not to lose. We won. I'm happy. But that was a pathetic drive. Just glad it didn't bite us.  Go Bills! X 2For god's sake, it's not conservative when you have a lead and not the best receiver corps. Also kicking two 50+ yard FGs is the opposite of conservative.

Steptide Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 This. OP must be a foreign refugee who's never seen a game. You're missing the point. Point is that in future games, running the ball 3 times and getting a 6 point lead isn't always gonna win you games. Yes the bills had some great plays today, but Imo we need to be a bit more aggressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 It would have been a much bigger issue if the Falcons came back and won, and they nearly did even without their top two wideouts.

Rockinon Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 The one I didn't like was the 4th and one FG. Woulda liked a TD there but other than that I'm pretty happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the bills had some great plays today, but Imo we need to be a bit more aggressive You're missing the point. The point is he was conservative THERE because of how the way the game was playing. He hasn't been overly conservative overall in the four games. Conservative would have been punting instead of kicking a 55 yarder. He went for the long FG because he had confidence in his kicker because he just kicked a 55 yarder and had hit ten in a row over fifty AND he had confidence in his defense because they had given up three TDs total in four games. That doesn't at all mean we will need to do that or will do that in future games. He did what he needed to do to win this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the bills had some great plays today, but Imo we need to be a bit more aggressive Here's the point.... NOTHING is always going to win you games. Today we won, so they made the right calls. Try again some game when we lose. We made them burn all their TO's. I'm good with that. Â Â You're missing the point.

But I really think they should have been more aggressive, and not relied on a 55 yard field goal. It worked so I'm happy, but can for sure see them being burned in the future by doing that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I would have loved to see killer instinct like going for it on fourth and goal or being aggressive after the pick but forcing Atlanta to burn timeouts was a smart move. COach put a lot of confidence in his defense and kicker!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBaumer Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 How about that 30 something yard pass to Clay on first down the drive before when we were tied right after that TD? Why aren't you mentioning that? How conservative was that? Go away. He's absolutely right. Enough of the go away crap... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatdrinks Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 For god's sake, it's not conservative when you have a lead and not the best receiver corps. Also kicking two 50+ yard FGs is the opposite of conservative. It's the definition of conservative without the best WRs etc. just makes it even more of a safe play. The last long FG they truly had no choice but to attempt the kick. A punt to possibly keep a bit of field position was not really a consideration. they needed points and should have been more aggressive trying to get them .
