Gugny Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 If Josh has proven one thing, it is that he is horrible in bad weather. Playing in Orchard Park is the LAST thing we should want. The TEN and JAX losses have enhanced our chances at post-season success. 2 1 6 2 4 2 9 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClemsonBills Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Josh has had both horrible games and great games in poor weather. I still want home field. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st pete gogolak Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Then we should definitely rest the starters next week, lose to the Jets and open on the road at Kansas City. Brilliant! 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfball323 Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Home field advantage is more than Josh slinging it around the yard. Opposing QBs & special teams units need to deal with it as well. We just need to suck less than they do. I have a funny feeling that keeping snow on the field yesterday was a choice made by the team to see how they played in it. The hashs and sidelines were perfectly clean of snow, so they definitely had the option to clear the field. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant! That's not what I said. If we get NE in the first round, beating them should be relatively easy regardless of location. As we get deeper into the tournament, I'd rather see Josh play in better weather. It's really that simple. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 I have felt like traveling might work out for the best in particular if it’s to Tenn. Cincinnati and KC have the same weather possibilities as Orchard Park, but we shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he didn't play well in either of the losses. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gugny Posted January 3, 2022 Author Share Posted January 3, 2022 And I'm sure the trolling accusations are coming. I'm not trolling. I'm being 100% serious. The way Josh Allen plays in inclement weather will NOT win very many playoff games. 2 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way Josh Allen plays in inclement weather will NOT win very many playoff games. I agree to an extent. If we have to play 3 straight playoff games in crappy weather, I wouldn’t be confidant in us making the SB with this team. If we played 3 straight games in a dome, I’m confidant that we’d be playing in the SB 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills, with JA, are a pass 1st team. Additionally the D has struggled against teams built for the power run game. The Buffalo weather conditions in January may not favor these factors. 2 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally, I'm with you. But for this one, I think the proof is in the pudding. It's a trend. I still think the Bills are the cream of the crop in the AFC and I think Josh Allen is the best QB in the AFC. But the bad weather simply does not bode well. I totally agree that a couple of the INTs were not necessarily on Josh yesterday. I also think that early drops were a factor. I'd just prefer nicer weather once the tournament starts. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you are going to ask me if I would rather the Bills have their playoff games at home or on the road, the answer, every time, is going to be at home. Not even a debate.
