I will opine that he was seeing his passes bouncing off his receivers hands and was trying to alter his throws. So we agree and that got him in trouble.  The INT in the end zone was a great defensive play.  Those happen.  

TB have been sleeping walking since the Bills game.  It was a walk up call that they have not responded to.  One worry.  The Bills have struggled at home this season.

 

The Bills haven’t struggled at home vs bad teams. Their losses - Pitt, Indy, NE - came to teams without losing records. Their 5 wins at home were all by at least 2 TDs. The jets are a very bad, 4-12 team that has 1 road win (Texans). I still wouldn’t take that number but wouldn’t be surprised if they cover.

I think I speak for everyone here when I say "Eff the Jests." Worst fan base in the NFL. 

 

They try and cling to a Super Bowl win over 50 years ago (that most of their fans base wasn't even alive for) like it's relevant to today's teams. 

 

You know the difference between a Jests fan and a baby? The baby stops crying after a while.

 

The only difference between a Jests fan and a bucket of cow manure is the bucket.
 

You know the difference between a Robert Saleh defense and Marlboro? Josh Allen doesn't smoke Marlboro.

 

The ONLY thing I can get behind when it comes to the Jets is Zach Wilson's mom. Matter of fact, his new name is Stacy Wilson because his mom has got it going on.

 

Bills winning this one BIG. 37-13.

I was at the Miami game.  It was a struggle.  Receivers not getting separation.  Soft defense pass coverage. O line getting pushed around.  They struggled yesterday against a Atlanta defense that is average at best.

What they struggle with? Other than the INT's the Bills moved the ball at will and Falcons couldn't stop it. Oline looked good too

I think we just have different definitions of “struggled” … Nbd

The first 28 mins of yesterday's game, Josh looked great. Was completing balls all over. Then for whatever reason, he started throwing terrible passes. I thought he was throwing his passes too hard, and I wonder if someone told him not to zip them so much and that somehow threw his game off, and he started over thinking his passes, which led to interceptions 

 

I actually thought the same thing, Like Diggs talking to Allen after dropping the ball that his hands in the end zone saying " hey bro, ease up, these balls feel like they are made of stone right now"

Had over 300 yards overall and more than 200 yards rushing. If Allen doesn't throw that INT when it was 14-5 then the Bills most likely make it 17-5 and the Falcons never recover. They have things to work on and clean up but the offense was fine as they were moving the ball up and down the field.

They struggled passing the ball.  It was obvious. 11/26 120 3 ints.  Come on man, you know this

Is that the same Miami team that went on to win 7 straight games after their loss in Buffalo?

Idk man... they moved the ball every series on offense and made it look easy. As I said, other than the INT's, they had their way with ATL...

I have no doubt Josh will get to that point. Kinda have to keep in mind the amount of experience Rodgers has while Josh is a young bull. Hopefully Josh will be here for as long as Rodgers has in GB if we get lucky.

 

 

I'm scratching my head at all the fans wanting Allen to be more like Rogers!  Sure that's a laudable goal but there is a slight difference in age, like 12 freaking years.  Some things have to be learned through EXPERIENCE and yesterday was just part of the long journey Allen is on. But it's beyond unrealistic to think Allen should be right behind Rogers on this path.  He's way behind Rogers now but if he stays healthy he'll match him sooner rather then later.

They moved the ball. They didn’t pass well at all. Minus the ints and josh still had a bad game throwing the ball. It was pretty obvious to me.

Has a win ever felt more polarizing as to how good it was or wasnt? I am in the camp of Josh played a good game. Throwing as well. Not great. Not subpar. Good.

 

And reasonable folks seem to disagree. Idk.

 

What is most encouraging is the running game. Sure Allen had bad numbers yesterday and that will have to improve in the post season to have a chance at the Super Bowl. But an improved running game should make Allen much more dangerous and harder to defend going forward.

I think the better thing to say is we haven't looked like the best version of the Bills at home. The final scores mostly look fine, but getting there has been more of an adventure than it probably should have been in a number of cases.

Josh watched as the balls bounced off of receivers hands or even when they had it in their gut.  So, we went run heavy and that had a much better ROI.  It also sent a message for the Bills that they receiving corps has to wake up and start doing what they were paid for and traded for.

They did. The 2nd quarter was especially bad. No way to deny that.

 

However, as much as people want to view the Bills as the "Buffalo Josh Allen's" and say he is the only hope...it is still and always will be a team game.

 

For me, it was actually refreshing to see that we can win a game where Allen is off, the passing game is out of sync and we need to make adjustments. I've been a Daboll basher for most of his time here, however give Ol' Bertrum his due...he made the call to switch to the run game and roll with that. The Falcons knew we were going to run and couldn't stop it. He called a heckuva 2nd half after nearly blowing it in the 1st half with cutesy and cocky playcalling.
