atlbillsfan1975 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 New guys helped the Bills get to 4-0. Norman had a great play, love seeing that out of the big personality vet coming in. Jefferson had a heck of a play Diggs played great, Davis had another TD. Who am I forgetting? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, yeah sure I'd rather than he throw it away, but I just can't understand being a fan of this team and getting hung up on that one play when Allen played so well. Still, as good as Allen is playing these are the kinds of mistakes that can come back to haunt you. Josh Allen knows as much and is probably as frustrated as the fans are IMO. Play by play frustrations are going to be passed on to the Game thread and should be expected IMO. The same way you would probably hear frustrations bubble over in anywhere you are watching with other people. I'm not one to complain, but I get it. Its all good... Bills fans just aren't used to winning games this way.. Josh Allen and the Bills high powered Offense!!! Say what?!?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sense in messing around with a volatile kicker at this point. This is legitimately a top-3 team in the AFC right now, don't mess around. Bojorquez didn't rotate the ball on the PAT miss and his punting was terrible today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WideNine Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 (edited) 6 minutes ago, 2020 Our Year For Sure said: I love Dabes but thought we ran the ball too much today. on 1st down in particular. They had cluster injuries in the secondary and Josh went for a hair under 8.5 ypa, and we're wasting plays running ineffectually. Maybe they were afraid of #17 taking more hits? But a QB sneak on a 1st down at the goal line doesn't line up with that. Feels amazing to be 4-0 though I don't feel we ran the ball too much, but I do not think the run calls in the second half were terribly effective. So many teams are just dropping everyone into coverage in the 2nd halves of games that we have to find a way to be able to run out of our 13 personnel look so play action can still be effective. It is something Daboll needs to get figured out, because all those DBs deep force Allen to hold the ball longer and press and then plays break down and things get weird.

HomeTeam Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 (edited) 40 minutes ago, JGMcD2 said: I’m generally pretty positive in regards to the Bills (and any team I work with or am a fan of) when they’re struggling because I believe things come and go from time to time and need to be adjusted. That’s what coaching is for... I think we have a fine coaching staff that is capable of doing that and has shown it. But, my point is I’ve been VERY upset with the Bills defense all season until late this game. They looked unenthusiastic... very much lacked a spark. The 4th quarter gave me hope... they were flying around a little bit more, gang tackling a little bit more, and manages to force some turnovers. They made a big mistake in doing so... because now I KNOW they are capable of doing it... so I expect that to be the norm moving forward. You're post sparked an idea. Maybe the reason the Bills and other defenses around the NFL are playing poor is due to a lack of fans. Usually it's the fans that provide a spark for defenses. Overall, I think this coaching staff will make the needed adjustments to right the ship on that side of the ball. We've seen this in the past and they always find an answer.
