Positive Comments Only Game Reaction Thread

First playoff win since 1995 and I’ll be damned if I’m going to complain just because it was too close for comfort.

 

It’s the playoffs and wins rarely come easy. Lest we forget KC had to overcome double-digit deficits in every playoff game on their way to becoming SB Champs last year.

 

Give me some good vibes because your Buffalo Bills are moving on to the next round and the Colts are headed home to clean out their lockers.

 

I’ll start off by saying that two rookies, Gabriel Davis and Tyler Bass, played with ice water in their veins today.

 

Watcha got? Come on get happy, the playoff schnied is over.

How’s this for positive: I think they needed this type of win a’la the Cards game. 
 

Butterflies? Yup. They managed them. D collapse? Yup and then they saved the day. No run game? Yup, what’s new? Turn back to the pass and let Josh do his thing. 
 

At the end of the day, however, the manner in which they pulled this out may be the exact perfect timing!

 

Super Bowl or bust!!!! 🦬🏈

We beat a really good team today, one that matched up well with us. They have great lines on both sides of the ball, and their defense tackled exceptionally well today. Rivers has always been accurate when he has time to throw, and with that stout OL, he was able to stare down his targets. Frank R was a bit over-aggressive with a few calls, but all-in-all he and his coordinators called a very good game and kept it close. Hats off to Frank ... But all that -- and we still won!

As much as the Bills were dominating their opponents over the past 6 weeks I think getting a very close hard fought win in the playoffs against a team that executed the exact sort of game plan that is ideal to beat the Bills will serve us very well.   
 

I think Daboll will come out with more of a passing plan next week and hopefully the defense can handle the play action much better than it did today.

How far we have come. 
 

Win and move on. GO BILLS 

 

We didn't play our best game and had a hugely controversial call go against in the closing minute and won a playoff game.

 

How far we have come.

I think what people don't get is that this game was never ever ever ever ever EVER EVEEEERRRR going to be easy.  Not only are the Colts a top-10 roster but this team was responsible for getting a 25 year old 3,000 pound monkey off the back of the city.  Some things just don't die easy. 

 

Allowing a comeback, getting hosed by the refs and then the game coming down to a Hail Mary, the ONE THING that dogged us this season, was great poetry.  We exorcised the demons.

Give credit to Sean McDermott. Some people in the game day threads said he was being outcoached the entire game.

 

But look at the moment when McDermott demanded that the refs look at the fumble that wasn't called, and the refs were not going to review the play at all. Yes, the refs screwed us over on that play, but McDermott got them to review it.

 

Also, McDermott calling the final timeout late in the game which prevented the Colts from running another play.

 

Good job, McDermott!

I'm hoping the at times shaky play was due to nerves and the pressure of winning the first playoff game in 25 years.

 

Hope they got it all out if their system and come back with laser like focus and execution next week! 

 

Loved the long Diggs TD!

The refs suck but they always do.  Josh had a great game except for that sack/fumble.  Gabe davis is a dude.  No Brown catches, no problem!

 

The review at the end sucked...but overall I thought the refs were fine.  They let the guys play and only called 4 penalties in the entire game... Both clubs got away with stuff but I'd rather see that than a micro-managed game.
