They are reading and hearing the noise from the media, Power rankings, SB talk, ect, Meanwhile KC just rolling along , Josh is not handling the fame and praise well, The picks are a big problem, The I can do anything throws are killing us, this team has no killer or put team away , Secondary is a mess Lewis and Johnson have no business being out there, Our DB's never ever look back for the ball. Wildcard at best me think

I'll cut the defense some slack. You have guys in the secondary out there who would likely be on the practice squad absent injuries. Losing the best safety tandem in football inevitably hurts. What's going on with Allen is far more inexplicable. I'd take a closer look at the 1st half other Packer game to see if he suffered a possible concussion. His decision making in the last 10 quarters is full of bonehead decisions and bad throws. That last interception was Noah Petermanesque.

Henry 19 carries 53 yards.  You think they are going to stop giving him the ball?  I'm not saying any of our RB's are Henry or that they need 20 carries but if they get 10 carries in the first half and we are leading by several scores they should probably get more than 2 or 3 more carries in the second half.

It’s funny all the “just knock the ball down” angst at Cam. Yeah, hindsight is 20/20. But that was actually a heck of a play by Cam. Well positioned; he outjumped Jefferson by a mile; made a play on the ball. 
 

what he could not have expected was that Jefferson would be able to fully extend 1 hand back from where he was to basically steal that ball from him. Just an absolutely fluke play. 
 

As much as the secondary got beat up today by Jefferson, the coverage was remarkably good. I just have no idea how some of the balls made it through defender’s arms and Jefferson was still

able to catch them. Great skill by him, but some luck too.
 

The one in OT down to the goal line was textbook coverage by Jackson and the ball somehow made it to JJ? Or the slant to the goal line (before the Ham TD), played really well by Benford, who had his arm in front of the ball AND the ball was tipped at the LOS— yet it was still caught. Just some crazy stuff. 

The Jefferson catch doesnt happen if the Bills Db slaps it out of bounds . The game is over. Its a stupid mistake that is killer. The Bills player actually out jumps Jefferson !

All he had to do was knock it down but instead he goes for the INT and then allows a guy falling backwards with one hand to wrench it from him! 

This is on the Bills coaching staff.

 

The Vikings had one player that could hurt them. 
 

And time and time again they left that corner on an island.

 

4th-18 or 22 or whatever it was you knew he was going to go that way, and this McDermott staff made no adjustments, no double team, nothing. 
 

It happened over and over again.

This isn't 1995 anymore.  Offense is the name of the game.  Defenses can only hope to slow teams down.   This offense scored 6 points over the final 40 minutes.  

Scoring leaders average 30 points a game.  Bills have statistically a great defense.  If we put up 24+ (league average offense), our defense should hold and we should win.  Unfortunately our secondary is thin so they have struggled to stop top receiving threats

All he had to do was not exist.... if he does absolutely nothing the ball falls incomplete

You do know that Bilicheck lost to the Chiefs in the playoffs with seconds on the clock as well right?

 

wonder why he was not fired, literally almost exact situation but no one even considered firing him.

You know the Patriots won multiple titles with Billcheck? not sure how many titles Frazier has under his belt as a cordinator

It’s the traditional “point the finger at anything or anyone to take the heat off Josh” approach. Josh kept us in the game but he also cost us it. Any player in Lewis’ position then would go for the interception. If he didn’t we’d all be moaning at hom for not catching the ball (see Milano).

Best case scenario is that he actually intercepts it and costs the offense 20 yards of field position. The only play was to bat it down. Going for the INT was pure selfishness

How many late game collapses because our defence cannot get off the field under Frazier do we need to have before changes are made.  I could go back to the Houston playoff game where we gave up some crazy 4 and long play.  Last week,  same thing against the Jets.  Tired of watching him coach not to lose

The problem with coaching not to lose... is that you lose.  A lot.

The team discipline has been a concern. We have turned the ball over all season. We were fortunate enough to have large enough leads in some of the early games that the turnovers didn't hurt us. I think the discipline also carries over to our offensive play calling. Early in the season we were marching down the field with high percentage quick throws which ate clock and lead to tds. We've gotten away from that which also makes Josh more vulnerable to the pass rush. Also, do we even have a screen pass play in our playbook? It would work so well when we recognize blitzes, but we never execute one.

Well, let’s unwrap this pearl of wisdom.

 

if our idiot DB would have been a team first guy and knocked the ball down we would have taken possession 30 yards up field, so no, no one would have been mad like they were at Milano. Instead our idiot DB goes for the pick because his stats are important and basically helps Jefferson catch the football.

and our offense spotted them a TD

Ok, so Billicheck ran the EXACT defense that we did and lost the same way but gets a pass. Got it, maybe it was good coaching and poor player execution. We have great coaches, maybe you want Dick Jauron back?

 

Did you complain about Marv Levy as well?
