Instead our idiot DB goes for the pick because his stats are important and basically helps Jefferson catch the football. Our ‘idiot’ DB - basically a 6th round (?) practice squad member against one of the best WRs in the game - got im a great position, did what he thought was right and was undone by a fluke play. Our heroic first round $250m quarterback has, for three weeks in a row, decided the way to win the game is by throwing the ball straight at a defensive player with barely a receiver in sight. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On that 4 & 18 play, I would have preferred bringing an extra man and forcing the ball out quick, we 3 rush guys and Cousins has time for receivers to get beyond the sticks.

Just keep running the ball once in a while and keep teams honest. We didn't lose the game because we can't run the ball. I almost garauntee that we'll never lose a game because we can't run the ball. The point is that if we never even try teams will find a way to get to Josh faster because we don't even try to run. Almost every time we ran we hardly went anywhere. They have no faith in it for a reason, it’s not any good. FFS we picked Duke Johnson up off the practice squad to be our power back on short yardage. Brutal. We traded for hynes and he hasn’t had a carry yet. McDermott says he trusts these guys but he doesn’t, that’s why they all have little special roles that basically makes our O predictable depending on who is on the field 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt. I wish it was like that all game long, but I suspect that the issues in the secondary required making other choices. Still it's maddening.

But Allen had plenty of time to see that it didn't happen, so I don't know why he threw it. Yeah agree 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 We could have snapped the ball into the end zone in shotgun and maybe even gotten a safety in a worst case and probably still won. How disgraceful to not even execute a snap. Literally all you have to do is not fumble. You can even take a safety and win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was quite simply, critical brain fart #16,000,008 in this team’s sorry, pathetic existence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say the NYJ defense outplayed the Bills D and we were severely outcoached. Well, you know, win or lose, it’s on the Quarterback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) Bills hadn't lost since 1968 when they had a 14+ point lead after the half and were 52-0 during that time. Cowboys had never lost a game in which they had a 14+ point lead in the history of their franchise and were 195-0 in those games. Both teams lost in OT on the same day. Surreal.

Yea, because the coaches told JA to throw 2 picks in the endzone in the second half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 3 plays, Allen would have found the 2 or 3 yards they needed to be able to kneel down and end the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our idiot DB did the wrong thing, he made the wrong play. Whether it be coaching not telling him to knock it down or a decision he made by himself. It was the wrong play. Our QBs last pass is a different comedy of errors. Two wrongs don’t make a right. It is possible, now bear with me, multiple parties on the Bills are to blame for this loss. A porous D between the 10s unable to generate a pass rush and adjust to 1 guy that was consistently killing is, terrible play calling on both sides of the ball, basically abandoning the running game and terrible offensive execution when it mattered.

What’s most frustrating is that our coaching staff did not have the foresight to come up with that as an idea in the heat of the moment. Once again, the moment shines too bright when put in a tight spot and they put our players in a bad position. No excuses for Allen to not execute the snap, yet I don’t know it had to come to that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
