Brennan Huff Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 It’s still frustrating that they tend to come out flat in the 2nd half. Reminded me of the Houston game. If the Jets weren’t the worst team in football we could have been in trouble. But I’d say the positives outweighed the negatives for sure.

Kirby Jackson Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I’ll call this performance a B-. 2 fumbles and 1.5 missed FGs inside the 25 isn’t good. In general though, they were SO much better than the Jets. A solid performance but not perfect. 1 and 0 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Frankish Reich Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Did anyone DVR that Miami-Pats game? 11 points against a patchwork Pats defense? That's what really surprises me. Bad Fitzy made an appearance if the stat sheet ain't lying. Where's the Week 2 Game Post that's usually up before the players run off the field in Orchard Park?

Don’t get me wrong on passing downs to buy time ok but just calling those power run plays we’ve seen it too many times him getting blasted. That second fumble when he landed on his head that could of been a neck injury easy. Go bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dablitzkrieg Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I'm trying not to be too excited because the jets suck really bad. That being said, I'm hopeful they are as good as they looked in the first half on offense because they may be down 2 LBs for a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RalphWilson'sNewWar Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 This game was very 2019. With a sprinkle of offensive improvement in key categories. BUT The same narrative was still there. Buffalo falls into lull, BUT they are playing an awful opponent and the Defense holds them down. that was the story for about more than half of the games in2019.

flmike Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 The 90s Bills had their bad moments too, but the difference was that they rarely let up in the 2nd half. Marchibroda-Kelly gets the nod over Daboll-Allen, but all I want from a football season is a chance to win every game and enjoy the battles. What happens at the end of the season depends on luck (injuries, ball bounces, refs) and teams getting hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Odd that a jets fan on the jetnation board can say this: Quote Dude stop it. People would of been building church’s for Darnold in NJ if he would of put up the numbers Allen did. yes Allen has lots of help & lots of support. He also has a coach who can ply to his strengths but Allen made the throws. He made the reads. He played well. From one die hard jets to fan to the rest of you...get over yourselves. Allen is legit.

RunTheBall Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 (edited) How is no one talking about Allen’s marked improvement in throwing with anticipation? He threw guys open all day and I’m not talking about the throws where Diggs/Brown left CB jockstraps on the field. To me this is one of the biggest indicators that Josh is the real deal and will develop into a great franchise QB. The fumbles and mechanics on roll outs to the left are easily fixable.

He was better at anticipation throws for sure. Ball placement still needs to improve. First half was best passing half he’s had as a Bill, super efficient and used all of his receivers.

JerseyBills Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Postgame thoughts - We dominated O , D and the Return Game. Andre Roberts quietly had a helluva game. Only thing concerning is the run game but that's a great Run D. But just as far as an overall team effort, we dominated! And when the Jets cut it to 11 on that flukey 70 yard pass , the O marched right down, killed clock and responded with 3 but should have been 7. Could have easily won by 30+ but we'll get that cleaned up. We can pick apart a bunch of things about this game, bottom line is it was week 1 after a surreal off season and we got a dominant, team win!

Franco_92 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I want Allen to protect the ball better. I also NEVER want him in a situation where he's taking the hits that led to the two fumbles. Ever. It is amazing to me that we keep calling these kind of plays with these results being so common. They need to be stripped from the playbook. Scrambling is fine and he seems to not fumble when he's doing it. Designed runs in the field of play that mimic running back plays where those kind of tackles are guaranteed are just bad news. No QB in the league doesn't drop a ball being flipped like that (maybe Cam succeeds, but that would be it). Josh should not be upside down in the air on a designed run when the Bills are up by 3 TDs. Ever. ***** cut it out Daboll. Even if he didn't keep fumbling it, I do NOT want him taking those hits all season. Great way to shorten his career. He can use his feet the way he did while passing today - extending plays, he's incredible at that. He can scramble when a play breaks down. Enough of these designed "Light up Josh Allen" plays where every team is gunning for him, knowing the probable result. At this point, I'm just pissed at Daboll. Excellent game from Allen otherwise. Truly encouraging. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figster Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Aside from the Allen fumbles its hard not to come away from the game without being very pleased with the performance of Josh Allen. Diggs fits the Bill. Who needs preseason games This is one tough Buffalo Bills football team. MERCY!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
