Anyone else need a drink?

 

Survive and advance.  

I’m already drunk.  I took a drink after every play for luck.  With my sister.   Needless to say we can’t keep this up is they go to overtime

Bills need a 2nd corner. Unlikely they’ll get torched that badly by the TE again but Pittman did a number on them and I think a 2nd corner helps there. Think that’s the obvious and easy call unless an EDGE slips that you had high on the board.

 

colts oline really handled the bills dline, though that’s likely the best oline in these playoffs

You have wallace and gaines. Knox as a high end #2 is good for me. If a pass rusher is there, ok, but I'm good with a te. Another go to third down guy is a plus.

Lots of credit due, and blame to go around....but all I gotta day is...

 

 

Gabe Davis! Yeah Josh played real well, Diggs had a game.  But if not for some great clutch catches this might be a different ending.  Everyone calling for Stills over Davis, wassup?

 

Then Bass, man what a clutch kick.  Rookie came through, shining bright!

Josh.....cannot continue making globally huge spaceout mistakes in critical times in the playoffs..That will be a thing to work on next year.

Yeah, but his big mistakes are the flip side of his most incredible plays. If he took the advice of not taking risks, he wouldn't be nearly as successful as he is. We have to take the occasional 33 yards sack-fumble with all the long TD throws downfield. They're all of a piece.

Edmunds should be covering those big TEs as that is supposed to be his strength matching size and speed.

 

The not-so-good Edmunds played today.

Hearing the announcers say this Reffing  crew has the least holding calls makes sense that the colts were gonna hold all day! We faced a great o line a good defense and they play the perfect game plan. Also throw in crappy field position and ol Dubal running QB sneaks after we are torching the DBs. I for one think this bodes well for us. We got  knocked around and still won.

Rookies came up big today. Gotta love to see that.

I honestly forgot Gaines existed but Wallace ain’t it

Great post.  I was SO stoked for Bass.  And you could tell that was a huge moment for him.

 

And the way Davis toed those sidelines.

 

I just love this team.  It feels like so many guys stepped up.

The guy was running a spread vertical offense up 3 with 3 minutes left. Because that was the only way for the Bills to win.  
 

that’s why you don’t put much blame on him for the fumble. 

 

Williams got smoked on a few of those pressures and Dawkins gave up a lot of push.

 

Josh had nowhere to bail to.

 

At least Williams jumped on the ball after.

So the Bills were lucky they missed a FG. Also they better figure out how to create pressure. It may not matter for the rest of the AFC Playoffs but if they make it to the Superbowl the Saints and Packers will have a field day

 

yada, yada, yada

 

Just win baby!

Oh and both Brown and Beasley are clearly not at full speed.  
 

something to watch for next weekend as them getting speed back makes this passing attack pretty close to unstoppable

So what determines if the bills play at home again next week? 

They’re playing at home no matter what

Exactly.  The first touchdown was just insane.  People forget that and only think of the sack and fumble. That was recovered.

I do believe that the game plan they had, especially on defense backfired. I’d guess that Reich showed some things we didn’t expect with Rivers throwing so much, and the Bills were in stop-the-run defense. On offense, we expected that our medium crossers would be covered so we didn’t run them much while they thought we could beat them by running Josh, and they had that covered.

Don't have a Twitter account or know how to embed tweets here, but Chris Harris Jr just tweeted 'people who passed on Josh Allen looking real crazy right now lol.' 

 

Doesn't really matter what he thinks, but that's the same guy that said he couldn't wait to play Allen last year and thought he was terrible. We've all seen the growth and hard work from Allen, but cool that opposing players are noticing that and giving him the respect he has earned.

Have to hand it to the Colts. They came out and played an excellent game. They did almost everything they needed to win. They just failed to execute a couple of times. They seem extremely well coached and prepared. Kudos to Frank Reich. They gave the Bills almost too much to handle.

Rivers actually had a pretty good game he made some plays that you kind of had to throw your hands up and say what are we supposed to do there.

Plus there's going to be the Josh contract overriding the cap, so I am guessing they may take a cb later in the draft. McDermott doesn't need a physical specimen. 


if they could get Sherman at a low price that would be ideal
