The Red King Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Just a reminder that while this loss hurts our chances at homefield, it didn't cost us it. Buffalo's wins over KC and Tenn. give us the tiebreaker over both, as well as the tiebreaker in a three-way tie. We're still in the pole position. We just let some cars get right up our butt. 2 1 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAJBobby Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I am still VERY comfortable for the run to the playoffs. well as long as Allen’s Elbow is clear. it looked fine on the dime that went right though Davis Hands. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 With four division games left it feels like we have one more division loss in us. The teams in our division are not push overs. Bills would do well to go 3-1 against the division to finish the season. Let that sink in. Then we still got games against Minnesota and Cincinnati.

The next seven are probably just as difficult. Titans were a mess when we played them and then rolled off 5 straight wins. Packers are garbage. Detroit on Thanksgiving is a tougher game. Rams are really bad. Dolphins are good and we lost to them. Jets are pretty good and we lost to them. We will play both again to end the season. Plus the Bengals and Vikings. I still think we can sweep the Pats but who knows if they stole one from us I wouldn't be shocked. But i do think they are a level below the Jets and Dolphins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Red King Posted November 6, 2022 Author Share Posted November 6, 2022 This thread was only to point out where we stand right now. I've seen some people talk like we lost homefield today and wanted to set the record straight. Think of it as a PSA. This isn't the thread to discuss how they played today, or concerns going forward.

The Red King Posted November 6, 2022 Author Share Posted November 6, 2022 None of this has to do with the thread topic. There are other, appropriate, threads to complain in. It's like somebody posting a thread "Stadium traffic lighter then expected today", and people replying "Not as many people there because we didn't draft an o-line." and "Less reason to watch because we don't have a #2 wideout!". Please, keep it on-topic, peeps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because any one loss to any team at this point, including the NFC's 6-2 Vikings next week, puts us in 3rd place in our division? It's not that hard man.

HappyDays Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I'll feel a lot better about us going on a run to lock up the #1 seed if the following things happen, in order of importance: 1) Get Tre White back in the lineup. We cannot run the defense we want without our #1 CB on an island. 2) Sign OBJ. I don't care if we have to restructure contracts and sacrifice the future a bit. We need a true all around #2 WR. Get him here and ramp him up to hopefully be fully integrated into the offense by December. 3) Defense needs to get healthy. We're already undermanned without Hyde, losing Milano and Poyer and Rousseau is too much attrition to make up for when our offense has an off day. 4) Get Hines acclimated and start punishing defenses for backing off. We started doing this with Cook more today and it was working. Hines has elite speed so that brings another plus factor to that part of our offense. If we aren't able to make some of those changes fast then the #1 seed, possibly even the division, will slip away from us. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
