This is what happens when you don’t go for the throat. Bill O’Brien was begging the Bills to beat his team, and they didn’t take advantage. Running Frank Gore on 2nd down, punting at the Houston 38, and settling for FG’s cost this team. It’s a crying shame this team isn’t playing next week and it’s due to the conservative mindset from the top. O, and don’t go to the airport and cheer on a team that totally collapsed. Raise the damn standard here and demand more. Ridiculous. Wasted season, and next year the standard should be nothing less than AFC EAST CHAMPS. If not, heads need to roll.

Interesting that your adjective of choice is "wasted" seeing as many here tonight have described the season as being "successful." It demonstrates the difference perspective can make. I wonder when, if ever, Bills fans will expect something more than a wild card defeat. We used to expect a LOT more than that, but that was a very long time ago. 2 minutes ago, Scorp83 said: I agree...the standards should be raised! Has anyone heard about Lorenzo retiring?

Really tired of people saying how smart Bills fans are. Passionate. Yes. Smart. Not so much. I’m not sure any reasonable fan is saying to tear it down. Some good pieces to build upon on this team. Good season to build upon. But everyone has a real reason to be pissed tonight. Conservative coaching/play calling, Allen falling apart, running Gore far too much, defense completely collapsing, BS penalties and rulings (that TD on the kickoff), blowing a 16-0 lead, probably some more I a missing. Take your pick. Not much to be optimistic about with that collapse. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're going to find out all we need to know about Josh Allen next season. They need to upgrade the offensive personnel (obviously) and Allen needs to play quite a bit better given that schedule. If he's a FRANCHISE QB, we're going to see the kind of leap that makes 10 plus wins attainable facing a tougher lineup.

The defense spent the first half on the sidelines while the offense went on several long scoring drives and the same came be said for the first 10 minutes of the third quarter. It's not like the offense was going 3 and out just punting the ball back to the Texans. They were very well rested at the 5 minute mark of the third quarter and fell flat on their faces.

They need to upgrade personnel , Allen and some of the other young guys need to continue to improve and honestly we need more from the coaching. McDermott needs to be willing to change his game plan week to week Some weeks we need the defense to take some chances and try and create havoc. Defense did not have one td this year. On offense some consistency and identity would help. Your building blocks are Allen and Singeltary. make the rest fit what those two guys do best He needs to be better with personnel decisions No more tired vets playing over more talented players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boatdrinks Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Most everyone on this board is ticked off. This game was more winnable than at JAX as they had a 16 point lead in the 2nd half. It may not have been 35-3, but HOU got their revenge. Not sure what you’d like fans to do about it, but no one’s smiling after this one. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
