I am curious as to other peoples opinions. um….no. buffalo kicks first FG or make a TD instead ofFG or don’t allow the long run they win. How is that out coaching exactly? tennessee…2 penalties kill two buffalo TDs. One they end up getting 3. They throws int inside own 35giving Ten a TDa couple plays later. Any one of these buffalo wins against Indy..Mckrnzie fumble TD. Buffalo drives it and makes it a one score game by mid third. Totally different game. Pittsburgh….they blocked a punt and gets TD. Hold them to a FG or give them assert it’s still a one score game instead of two when buffalo has ball late 4th. Penalties/ missed plays prevented getting FGs or extending drives. how are any of these being out coached vs play execution by the players? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 None of the above. Bills are 0-4 in one score games, and could just as easily be 9-3 or 11-1. They're simply regressing to the mean. For all the talk about the Cheats 200+ rushing yards, they only scored 14 purnts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Costa Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 (edited) Reading these boards after a tough stretch of games shows that the whole Bills Mafia thing is a total farce. Bills fans are no different than Jets, Giants , Eagles or Cowboy fans. When there winning there drinking the kool aid . When their underachieving they piss all over them. Everyone is frustrated but man there some ignorant fans out there. Chaos seems to be on the top of the list after this thread. This person has no clue what goes into winning in the NFL. Maybe the Bills overachieved last year and this is who they really are in 2021. Something is obviously missing in 2021 but to suggest that McDermott forgot how to coach or our players are inferior is just plain ignorant. It’s a fine line between winning and losing in the NFL. And there are a lot of games still to play. Have faith that the Bills can turn this around or go kick rocks and be a Patriots fan front runner.

Boatdrinks Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Steelers, Jags, Patriots - poor performance by offense. Yes, that includes coaches . Colts - poor all around performance on both sides of the ball. In this game I would disagree with your assessment of the players. The Colts players are superior to the Bills on both lines , and the RB is better in every way. That added up to a blowout loss. The Bills probably should have lost to the Colts in the playoffs too, but Josh Allen was the difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaoulDuke79 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Steelers = Bills came out thinking it was an automatic win and didn't prepare as needed. Maybe that's the coaches/Maybe not Titans= can't stop the run (not settling for the "if it wasn't for that one big run excuse" because that story repeats itself Colts = Taylor is better that our run D can handle, but offense also needs to make it somewhat competitive. A complete team loss. I think special teams had a few mishaps as well. Patriots = Out coached. Tried to run for 3Q with zero success. Missed FG which shouldn't have been an option, wasted timeouts in the 2nd half, finally started throwing late and had some success. In hindsight let Josh do his thing. He's generally the best player on the field . . . . Jaguars: I blame everyone. Absolutely zero reason to lose that game, and as things stand it may prove huge.

Brand J Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 I feel like - and I may be totally wrong here - if the Bills had picked up the yard on the QB sneak and beaten the Titans, they most certainly would not have lost to the Jags and would be playing better football than they are currently. They were dominating that game against the Titans before McDermott declined the holding call on 2nd and 10. Very next play on 3rd and 10 was the bomb to Julio Jones that bounced off Hyde’s helmet and everything changed after that. Or maybe they are what they are: a wildly inconsistent team that essentially gave away the first game of the year. In hindsight it was a bit of a microcosm of the season thus far.

Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Cant really put the colts in there as that was just an annihilation. But i would say we were outcoached in all our losses. There were plays that would have changed the outcome of those games but they shouldn't have been that close if the coaching was better/more aggressive.

It’s silly because a game is one game not an entire season or career. Players and coaches can be better than the players they are playing on that day but still lose. Your “any given Sunday” scenario you were talking about. Over the year and career trajectory the players and coaches can be a heck of a lot better than other players in a single game. That’s why your choices are laughable. Edited December 12, 2021 by HamSandwhich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I am not saying these are all any given Sundays, these are games where they were out played on that particular day. You act like we have a losing record. We have a winning record and I’ll be willing to be we have a winning record at the end of the season and make the playoffs and also make noise in the playoffs. Wouldn’t be surprised to see a SB birth. This is the Bills underperforming more than it is the teams they face. Get back to basics and do what makes this offense works. I think they do tommorow and roll into the playoffs as afc champs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some players can have very good games above their avg day, sone have worse days. as I mention in my post above it comes down to a few plays in close games thst can make a difference. based on buffalo opponents this year the games of new england(2) miami (2) pittsburgh tennessee kansas city New Orleans tampa bay Washington buffalo has 4 H and 6 R games. were games they could lose sone of those games playing rivals and teams that made the playoffs last year and the 8and 9 teams that had a 500+ season and missed the playoffs. next years opponents besides their division are Home Pitt, CLE , GB, MIN, AFC South Road CIN, BAL, DET, CHI, AFC West, NFC West DET is the easiest, CHI, GB, andPIT are wild cards in u certain how they will be next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 This is all due to the Bills marketing staff. They've got to do better in this area. -Legends of the game account for two of the losses at home - Indy (Lynch), Patriots (Owens). -Wearing white the weekend after labor day accounts for the loss against the Steelers. -White jersey and blue pants explains the Titans and Jaguars game.

LABILLBACKER Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 McDermott knows it will be blowing 40+ mph all night. So after he wins the toss he decides in all his moronic wisdom to decline having the wind at your back in the 4th quarter. McDermott is a dumb coach and so are his coordinators.

Dopey Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 If Josh doesn't mess up on the QB sneak, we beat the Titans.
