dayman Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 (edited) Not going to complain (in this topic anyway) about all the specifics that were so wrong with this game but the short of it is that today really highlighted all of our shortcomings in 1 game and resulted in us losing against a bad football team. Sure, the Browns added talent but they showed exactly why they don't win today very clearly and we basically out-Browns'd them anyway. So, to put in context how important this loss was to us: @Miami - Almost beat us at home recently and plays much better with Fitz at QB. We'll probably win but could easily lose. vBroncos - 50/50 at best...odds are the Broncos beat us. They're at least good enough to beat the Browns. @Cowboys - Obvious loss vRavens - Obvious loss @Steelers - 50/50 at best, not a game we are likely to win on the road. @NE - Obvious loss v.Jets - Again, we could easily lose. Probably win though. Bottom line is we're looking at a 9-7 records assuming we take care of business against Jets, Miami, and spit with Broncos/Steelers. We have to do that AND either sweep the Steelers/Broncos match-ups or beat one of the vastly superior teams (Ravens, Pats, Cowboys) to get to 10. Today was a terrible loss. 6-3 for now but the cakewalk schedule is about to heat up. Edited November 10, 2019 by dayman 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BITE ME Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 It is entirely possible they drop their LAST 5 games. I will not be shocked if the Jets beat them in week 17. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 The best this offense has looked in the past two years is against the Jets, in New Jersey, last season. I wonder why? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dallas hasn't beat anyone either. Stop being so overdramatic. Enjoy the ride. Edited November 10, 2019 by Bferra13 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eanyills Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 The Bills are a 9-7 team. Above average but not great. Heck, they might not even be that good. They beat the teams they should beat and nothing more. Will that be good enough for the playoffs? I don’t think so but we’ll see. Whatever happens, Daboll has to go because I need a look at Allen with someone else. I already had doubts but we need more from the QB position. We have to find out if Allen’s the guy or not. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 No collapse, but it probably takes 10 wins off the table. Then again, even if they get a wild card slot, does anyone think they'd have a ghost of a chance of a road win? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Could be. If the coaching on offense doesn’t improve every game is 50/50 at best. We also have a HC who plays scared and afraid to allow his offense win a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seven-N-Nine Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 (edited) There is only 2 more games on the schedule I think they could win, Dolphins & Jets. The rest of the games, no way, the weaknesses of this team are really starting to show on tape and they're toast IMO. This team needs a new HC. I wish Beane was in charge and not McDermott, it means we have to wait another 2-3 excruciating seasons for Pegula to do something about Mcdermott.

LSHMEAB Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 I think this game was the difference between 10-6 and 9-7. There isn't likely some epic collapse looming and these threads are every bit as silly as the SB threads following a win. Key loss. Absolutely. Prelude to the end of the world? Nah.

Coordinator doesn’t exploit the other teams flaws. The win is completing passes at a 50% clip. Can’t have lots of confidence in his ability to deliver a catchable pass.
