He struggles when he's frustrated. Clouds his judgment. He's admitted as much. Which is a shame, because I thought he was calm and controlled to start this game.

They were similarly devastating losses. Fellow MVP favorite Stafford played as badly or worse than Allen based on passer rating and QBR.

It is not just run blocking. Defenses are selling out to stop our pass offense and a decent RB would take advantage of that. If Allen checks the ball down they are picking up an extra 1-2 yards. A decent RB would turn those into a 1st down with all the free space we are given. It is by far the biggest positional weakness on the team IMO. Where is Moss going? Allens arm isn't even pulled away yet and he is blown up with nowhere to go. Yes, our backs are not great but our line is the biggest problem. 6 hours ago, Rick 'r Mortis said: I'm with you. They'll both break one every couple years and people bring out the pom poms though. Not really because when they do there is a flag and its called back. 6 hours ago, HappyDays said: I don't think a lot of Bills fans realize the advantage given to our RBs. Defenses are just ignoring them and dropping back into zones where they know our WR routes will end up. Allen checked the ball down to our RBs a bunch today and on every throw they had all this open space in front of them, but they accelerate so slowly they can't take advantage of it. We could be ripping off 10-15 yards a pass easily if we had a dynamic RB taking those check downs. Then the defense would be forced to creep up and defend the check down and all of a sudden our WRs would start getting open again. I have been banging this drum since the offseason. But it's too late to do anything about it now. I agree with this though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop running the ball and pass more. Edited November 8, 2021 by TBBills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titans just beat Bills, Chiefs and Rams, back to back to back. Bills, Chiefs, Colts, and Titans. Four in a row against tough teams but still got beat by the Jets. Weird season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills attempted 47 passes yesterday and tried to run the ball just 14 times. When you are one dimensional, a team with a decent enough defense can tee off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was great until they decided to let the defense tell them what to do this year. Last year they had no problem imposing their will. Everyone forgets about last year when the Bills didn't bother running the ball, defenses played the pass and still couldn't stop them. This year trying to force the run is setting the bills up in losing positions with long 2nd/3rd downs.
