I dont like that he lost his head and took a penalty but at the same time I get it. That dude was mouthing off and pushing and punching our receivers all game long. He never got a flag for after play activities though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Not sure if it's been mentioned, but keep in mind a lot of the negativity after a double digit win is because a LOT of people had the Bills at -10.5 or -11 and due to some 2nd half sloppiness, they juuuust failed to cover.

I was pretty confident the Bills would contain the Packer run game. I knew their run game was solid but I still trusted the Bills defense. Especially, since the Packers literally have a limited passing game. I never thought they would get gashed play after play. It raises a little concern in the back of my mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you know you're down those players, you must adapt. Letting the other team rip off 10 , 20 yard runs is effectively the same as a passing game. You tell the D line to play the run, not the pass. It seemed like our D line was playing the pass all night. Frazier didnt adjust because it was non sensicle for GB to keep running the football no matter how much they were gashing us. They didnt have the clock to win like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's another with some of the stuff that happened tonight. It's unprofessional. I want McD to nip it in the bud. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They rather take the chance against the run and it worked, they only gave up 17 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDK. Josh being 5 of 14 for ~90 yards and two picks in the second half may have something to do with that negativity as well. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billz4ever Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 4 minutes ago, Scott7975 said: Exactly... they didnt execute. They burned all their clock on their own and didnt execute. Also the Bills stuffed the run when it mattered. Thats why running teams dont win many games. That isnt likely to happen again. They were telling GB to run the ball knowing GB didnt have the clock. Missed tackles suck but its one game. They been stout against the run all year. It'll be fine. What they were giving up on the ground, they might as well have been giving up through the air since the yardage gained was pass like yardage. We knew they were running but the D still couldn't stop it. That is rigid play calling and shows a lack of ability to adapt to what the offense is doing. The play calling tonight was questionable on both sides of the ball and the Bills won because they are simple a much better team than GB, but bad execution and play calling kept this game closer than it should've been. This game should've played out how the Pittsburgh game did the second half. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevestojan Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 For perhaps a less emotional reaction to tonight’s game, here is the #1 takeaway from the game in NFL.com’s weekly “what we learned from todays games” article: 1) Allen has emerged as a great leader, not just a great talent. Unequivocally, Josh Allen is in the conversation for being the best quarterback in the NFL. However, it was incredibly transparent on a chilly night in Buffalo how much he's grown as a leader and a galvanizing force for the league's best team. Allen doesn't run safely. He should play safer; he should slide a bit more. Allen doesn't always stay composed. He should be a bit more level-headed when he takes exception to an opponent's physicality, rather than having to be pulled away by teammates. But these are reasons why it's clear Allen is beloved by his teammates and the guiding force in the Bills' quest for a first-ever Super Bowl championship. Allen runs to the fray, he doesn't shy away from it. He inspires not just with his play but with the fire in his belly. The ability of Allen -- who had a rather ho-hum night by his standards with 267 yards of offense and two touchdown passes -- to lift his teammates is just as impressive as his weekly statistical success. To see Allen ascend from a one-man adventure in his early seasons to a truly special talent has been astounding. But to see him emerge as a leader ready to fight, scratch and captain his team through all weathers has been pretty damn special, too. The best teams often have the best leaders, and that appears to be the case with the incandescent gunslinger from Firebaugh. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didnt have the clock to win like that. If they are gashing the D that is no different than running effective pass plays. You adapt to what the offense is doing. If you are letting them rip off huge chunks of yards on the ground, you might as well make their receivers beat you since the receiving core is GBs big weakness right now.

Likely they got a little to antsy to rush the passer and got caught out of position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's happened a lot...Bills play softer coverage, allow some plays, but keep them in front of them and make them use up a ton of time. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No thats not the same as a passing offense. You're lumping multiple drives together where they either didn't convert or came away with a fg. Bottom line is the run game was just as effective as a pass game there and the defense did not adjust accordingly. If the offense's weakness is their receiving Corp, you make THEM beat you and plug up run. You shouldn't have to play nickel defense every down if the receivers are the weakness of the other team.
