Einstein Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 2 minutes ago, Billznut said: The Bills have always been a terrible road playoff team. 3-11 all time, 3-15 if you include neutral site road games(super bowls). At home the Bills are 11-1 all time. Bad weather or not, the Bills are a much much better team at home in the playoffs than on the road. I’ll gladly take a #2 seed over anything 3-7. Historic results have absolutely ZERO to do with the current team. What Jim Kelly and Marv Levy did in 1991 has nothing to do with what this team does in 2021. The offense we have right now is not conducive to the snow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many games has THIS offense played in the snow? The Bills will win or lose playoff games based on how their OL plays and turnover differential just like any other Sunday. And that goes whether they play in sun, snow, dirt or sand. They have a decided advantage playing at home as playoff history dictates, as most teams would. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are Allen’s numbers by month (over his career). September to November: 64%, 93 QB rating, 7.4 ypa December: 58%, 89 QB rating, 6.9 ypa Last year, in 81 degree (not my number, that’s what the splits give us) or higher weather, Allen was 70% for 7 TD’s, 0 INT and a 132 QB rating. In under 40 degree weather, he was 62% for 5 TD’s, 2 INT, and a 94 QB rating. His play is not at as high of a level in the colder months as it is in the warmer months. .

I guess we better trade Allen then since he plays in a “cold weather city” Since according to you he’s incapable of playing well in the cold or winning at home in December or January even though he did plenty of that last season.

I didn’t say he’s incapable, I said he’s not as elite in the cold. Most QB’s are not as elite in the cold. In today’s modern day spread offenses, it is advantageous for the defense to get cold/bad weather. Those are the facts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I guess unless the Pegulas change their mind and build a dome or global warming speeds up quicker to truly make Buffalo the Miami of the north we are F’ed. I’ll still root for the #1 or even #2 seed as I think most Bills fans smartly would over being a wild card and playing 3 games on the road as you’d prefer. That’s just crazy talk.

But to me, it’s #1 or bust. I want that bye week. #2 to #7 is practically all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiotAct Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 give me the freezing cold and 72,000 screaming Bills fans all day over nice weather conditions and a hostile environment for our offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl2526 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Yeah, when I saw the Titans' schedule, I thought it looked like a cakewalk versus what Buffalo is facing. I don't know how productive they can be on offense without Derrick Henry, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Ferguson Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 (edited) The Bills will move up in the seeding because the Texans will beat the Titans on Sunday. Edited November 20, 2021 by Joe Ferguson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
