class_of_2012 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 The Bills could have clinched a playoff spot today with a win and Houston, Oakland, and Indianapolis losses. At the start of today, I said there is no chance all three of those teams lose. Well, the impossible happened, and they did. Except Buffalo failed to keep its end of the bargain. What's worse, New England is losing to the Chiefs currently. We had our shot at the division, and we blew it. I don't think Baltimore is that good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitey13 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Baltimore is the hottest team in the league, we didnt blow anything and the fact we even had a shot at the division would have still needed us to beat the Pats at Foxborough. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bing Bong Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Baltimore is really good. But that's still a bummer we were close there and in the Pats game. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree with the sentiment that Baltimore isnt that good. Years of the Bills sucking might be causing you to frame your argument in a way that diminishes the Ravens. The Ravens are very good, the Bills showed they can play with the best team in the league. Still have miles to go on offense but I think today shows that the Bills aren't the same old Bills. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We contained both Brady and Jackson, but couldn't get it done offensively. Not like we didn't have opportunities. They are trending upwards and all that good stuff, but moral victories are not my thing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do The Reich Thing Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 True, but the Bills clinch with ONE win in their last three. Even if we don’t beat the Steelers, which we will, we beat the Jets at home we’re in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABILLBACKER Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Yup, it was all there for us. And we dropped the ball. I'm so sick of watching our offense and special teams fail. Watching our defense carry this team on their backs. So sick of mediocre coaching. Just draft all offense in april. Sign all offense in fa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VaMilBill Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I have a bad feeling we are going to lose these next two games. Seems like the Steelers always have our number including when they played 3rd stringers to keep us out of the playoffs. I’m 30, but I can’t remember the last time the Bills beat the Steelers. Having the the last game being a win and in against the Jets scares me. Especially because we knocked them out a few years ago. Does anyone one else feel this way? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
