I felt it was simply and clearly evident last season that the running game was enhanced with Feliciano at center and the passing game enhanced with Morse there. Mongo out of the line up notwithstanding, it still holds true. It’s kind of a shame as it shows what we’re going to do, but if I ‘had my druthers’, I love the offense this season -especially so with an injured Defensive unit that’s weaker up front from a year ago.

Yeah, I hear you. I’m hopeful that Ford can step up his game. He really has had moments, but they’ve been too few and far between for my liking.

 

Not sure what happened to Spain—maybe getting paid resulted in him slacking a bit, but he was solid last year.

 

Anyway, the guards are a problem in the run game right now.

 

I wonder if there is any data out there that shows, statistically, what percentage of players show a decline in play they season after they get paid.  That would be interesting to see.

I had the same question about Spain.  He did well enough in pass pro last year, what happened?

not too concerned about this game in a Win/Loss standpoint 

 

I just don't want to get blown out and embarrassed again, and want to see Allen have a good game. That will give me confidence for the rest of the season. The patriots game in 2 weeks is 10x more important. Losing that game is unacceptable.  

This game is also very important though not as much as the Pats*** one.  But chiefs being an afc team and us having lost the last one, being in primetime makes this important from a seeding and psychological standpoint

It says bell might make his debut on Monday 🤷‍♂️. Literally that's it, maybe they know something we don't ,or don't know something we do. Idk 

He’s not. Was reported all over the pregame shows this morning that he’s ineligible this week due to covid protocols.

win or lose I want our defense to have a big game and want to see McD make some changes to our playstyle 

 

 

 

Would love to see that too but this isnt the game we are likely to see our defense have a big game.  Its one of the best offenses in the NFL and we struggled to stop the Jets.

Peter King said Josh Allen was "weirdly emotional" in the Titans loss, leading to his less-than-perfect play that reminded us of last year.

 

Allen hates losing. It's like it's the end of the season if we're facing a loss. He loses control. I'm pretty sure this is just what happens when we're in hard games. He needs to get it under control.

 

Look at Rodgers today -- he knew when the game was over today, and he accepted it and moved on. You didn't see him get all red-cheeked and crazy.

Allen looked a little rattled after his INT on the sidelines, like he knew the game was over and it was his fault (it wasn't, we were never stopping the titans offense that night) 

 

He hates losing 1 game more than winning 5 in a row

He is young and has a lot of fire in him.  The kid is one of the biggest gamers I have seen.  He always gives it all on the field.

Welp, they are not going to fix all the problems they've been having this season in one week, and certainly not against the Chiefs... Hate to say it but be prepared to be disappointed I think.

I don't know, I think the Bills are pretty made at themselves, even a bit ashamed that they let down each other and the coaches. I think they'll come out firing.

Genuinely wondering - was King at the game?  If not, him saying that Allen was "weirdly emotional" seems like a pretty weird assumption,.

Really not looking forward to tomorrow’s game.  Chief’s O is best-in-class and Bills’ D is not even mediocre.  I worry that Allen will continue regressing into bad decisions in this game in effort to overcome the weak D.  I fear that this could get ugly.

 

 

I don't think so my friend.  Aside from Tuesday's stinker, the Bills usually show up for prime time games, especially under McDermott, and ESPECIALLY Josh Allen.  He lives for these games and he thrives in the spotlight.  There may not be a crowd, but this is STILL a Monday night HOME game.  Not only that, Buffalo will still have the nasty taste in their mouth from Tennessee.  The D has been getting shredded in the press, and I bet a fire has been lit under their a$$es.  How can it not??  They WILL show up.  KC has one helluva offense, no denying that, but they're not unstoppable.  And no way Allen comes out and plays like he did Tuesday.  He'll be ready.  Have faith my friend.  You're gonna see a completely different team than the one you did Tuesday night.   I have the Bills winning this one.

Even the Packers can get blown out. It happens.  Heck, SF got blown out at home by Miami last week.   I'm over the Titans game and think the Bills will come out and regain some credibility on National TV.  They will perform well.  Hopefully it translates into a Win...  If they can keep from turning it over and eliminate the dumb penalties...I think Buf earns the W.
