A massive day running the ball is around 200 yards. A massive day throwing the ball is around 400 yards. It's as simple as moving the length of the field twice vs four times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I'd Josh played lights out in the 2nd half, like he usually does? What if he doesn't throw two 2nd half ints? What if we converted our 3rd downs like we usually do. Also the OPI wasn't lame, he manhandled Elam to get wide open, it's a penalty every time. AND how for the life of me are you going to sit there and say we almost let GB win? After the first play in the 2nd quarter, that game was never in doubt. They were up 3 scores for a good chunk of the game until a garbage time td cut it to 10. Giving up 60 yard plays is how you LOSE a game like this. You must be new to football. SMH It wasn’t a penalty. It was soft. I am not saying GB “almost won”. But they needed a game script to win. Control the clock, limit Josh, and be efficient. The bills seemingly let them do that script fairly well . The difference? Bills made a few clutch plays on 4th down and In the red zone My overall point is when I have Josh Allen and I’m playing against a mediocre offence, make them get in a shoot out with you.. GB wanted to run the ball/control clock, and the bills let them do it and it gave them “half a chance”. If bills played more aggressive in defence, i think they win by 4-5 touchdowns 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And why Frazier was playing like he was scared to death of GBs receivers, when their receivers are their weak spot? That game was a Crosby missed FG and fairly weak OPI call from being tied. You're making it sound like we were comfortably ahead. We weren't. It was the way WE were playing that was the reason we didn't know the game was over until Crosby missed the FG. Missed opi call away from being a game aka we would’ve given up two big chunk passing tds and you wanted us to load up against the run lol massively contradictory You can’t play this what if game when 7 of the packers 17 points came from a completely improbable td catch by doubs. He would make that play maybe 5 times if given 100 attempts. It’s way more likely he drops that ball than the refs deciding not to call a tossup opi on tonyan This revisionist history is absurd…the game was over long before the missed Crosby fg. If Crosby hits that fg the packers would’ve needed to recover an onside kick then drive 60 yards with no timeouts and 40ish seconds left just to tie the game. The game was never close Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbillievable Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 The Bills were used to rushing the passer when got ahead, might be why they allowed big runs to happen.

They’re in desperation mode at 3-4 yesterday and they didn’t even try to let their HoF QB win them the game. I was amazed by that as well. I just feel like they have zero confidence in their Wrs and our pass rush was dominant imo despite the numbers, they impacted Rodgers all night. Our secondary was dominant and they had no other choice. really goes to show how great this d is. As far as op i semi agree about not running Motor more while up but we have the opposite problem in that we have extreme confidence in our wrs but we should absolutely put it in Motors hands more.

While it may help Josh to stay in rhythm, it's nor a necessity by any means. If that was the case we wouldn't score so many first possession tds because he wouldn't be in rhythm yet.

Makes no sense at all. This is a passing league and if you make teams like the Packers (or Chiefs) commit to running you are taking away their best weapon. Rodgers only had like 75 yards through the first 3 quarters. And it doesn't matter how many running yards they had, bc they scored 0 running TD's. You don't get points for rushing yards. Rodgers did throw for 2 TD's, and had they ran on those plays the final score would have probably been 27-9. The only way a team runs the ball as often as the Packers did last night and beats the Bills is if they can hold the Bills O to under 17 points. They couldn't do that in the first half. Yet you're saying the Bills had a better chance of winning of we stacked the box and covered their RB's or TE's with Dodson or Bernard?
