78thealltimegreat Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 This was a tough one against the best team in the league...but 3 of our 4 losses went down to the 4th quarter 2 going to the final play...we aren’t super bowl caliber yet but man this is the best I’ve felt about this franchise going forward since the Kelly days 30 4 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njbuff Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 (edited) Now that the smoke has cleared......... let’s be fair........... Baltimore is the SB favorite in the AFC and the Bills could have won if they played a smig better. With that said......... we are on to Pittsburgh and the Bills need their best effort in 20 years. Case closed. Edited December 8, 2019 by njbuff 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codyny13 Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Rough game for offense as our offensive line got smoked today...but I agree, I’m walking away knowing we can play with the big boys. I’m much more confident in all 3 games going forward. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Landing Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 I agree, too. I wouldn't even bother replying on the other "disgusting offensive effort" thread. This team made plenty of mistakes to be sure. But, they fought to the last play. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 I’m emotional. Allen sucked, the receivers mostly sucked too. The Ravens are better in every category and we should thank the refs for some of those points today because they kept drives alive that were snuffed out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 I agree. The big difference is that we need our skill guys to make plays for Josh. Totally different game without Knox drop, Beasley drop, Singletary drop, Foster “drop” (on the Non-call PI). didn’t see any of those same drops by the Ravens. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen will struggle against good teams and only good teams play in the playoffs. Folks read too much into the Dallas win. It was a big win for the franchise as a whole, but don't draw too much from Allen's performance. Dallas is not a good team and will not be in the playoffs.

GunnerBill Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 We can hang with anyone. We need a few extra pieces and more improvement from our QB to be able to go the next stage and BEAT anybody.

dayman Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Defense is legit and team is competitive but it is fair to ask more of Josh. He wasn't good today and if he was we probably win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgrochester55 Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 This was a tough loss, but one against a team that is the hottest one in the NFL for a reason. Today shows that this is a playoff team, but not a super bowl contender. I see a 12-4 caliber defense and an 8-8 caliber offense. To get to that next level in 2020, they need to have Allen continue to develop and upgrade the offense a little bit more, perhaps a couple lineman and true #1 receiver. The sky is not falling yet, and I still believe that Buffalo can finish with 10 or 11 wins. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atlbillsfan1975 Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 This was suppose to be the year we made the step forward. They have made a leap forward. Bills can beat anyone. They need a couple more players to be a great team and a SB winner. And maybe a new OC. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at the table Karlos Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 We are legit. The offense was a mess early and Allen needed to calm down a bit but we were right in it. The receivers work on their hands and we get some more talent we’re gonna be a top team for a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I don't think this was anything like the Browns game. The Browns was a game we should have won against a team we are better than and we ballsed it up. This was always a very tough game. We had some chances but overall our offensive execution just wasn't quite where it needed to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing by 7 points to the media darlings and likely the best team in the league, that's being 'exposed'? OK then. Oh I'm pissed at this loss all right. It was a frustrating afternoon, especially on offense, as Josh had no time and was ragdolled, his misses, the drops... but that's not being outclassed or destroyed like the Ravens did to almost all teams except the 49ers. If you don't realize the Bills could beat them, well you don't watch much football or are a drama queen. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
