NFL Week #14 - Jets at Bills - Post game thread


BuffaloBill

Recommended Posts

I'm usually a level head person but there is something about this team that drives me absolutely crazy to watch.   There seems to be a complete lack of fire on offense.  So many players on the team I'd rather never watch again.

 

Gabe Davis, Mckenzie, Dane Jackson, Spencer Brown, Rodger Saffold just guys that should be down a slot on the depth chart or off the roster completely having to start.    Even to the point with Tre White where I'd rather not watch the guy.

 

The Bills have spent a lot of time and money and I think the Super Bowl opportunity was blown last year.  Feel like its going to take a lot for them to beat KC, Cincinnati or even Miami.

Mike White proved to me he is a stud.  He put it all on the line knowing his team needed this win.

It was pretty much a season "must win" game for the Jets.

Sometimes I have to look at the other team's situation and not just from the point of view of a Bills fan.

Gutsy but 0 passing tds in the last 2 games. Granted, he’s better than Zach Wilson but this league is about scoring

I love the Bills and I ride the waves in wins and losses too but seriously some of you on here are just straight ***** - I swear fantasy football has ruined the game - it's not always pretty, especially against division opponents - just stop 10-3 is 10&3- 

 

I hate fantasy football so much it's crazy

In previous seasons, when teams tried playing this soft cover 2 zone against the Bills, the answer had always been the slot receiver Beasley finding the soft spots and seams. In fact, I think those were some of his biggest games. 

Whackadoodle or not, the Bills miss that kind of guy in the lineup. I think they were hoping the answer was Crowder with Shakir learning from the sidelines...but thats just not an option right now..and it shows.

I used to think this place was unbearable after losses. Now Bills Mafia is miserable after wins. Enjoy the wins!! 

Sadly, it is largely unbearable most of the time now, but especially right after games.  We have been invaded by an army of bandwagon fans that do not have a clue, plus the usual contingent of posters who are just miserable.  Enjoy the ride, or what’s the point.

Don’t you remember the offense vs Atlanta, NYJ, Jax and NE last year? Short memory. We were at 7-6 at this point last year not 10-3. So I suggest you go back and rewatch some games. D is better but O is definitely not worse

Weren't we playing a much weaker schedule on top of it? I think I saw we've had the 2nd toughest schedule thus far this season? 

 

It's always possible I made up that last stat but I'm pretty sure I read it somewhere ...

 

Edit: thought I quoted the guy that challenged this post.

Everyone is missing my point which seems so apparent.

Mike White coming back in to play kept the Jets players hopes up and they kept the game close enough to have a chance

right to the end.

 

If he didn't come back in does anyone think Flacco would have done that?

Thank you!  The Bills won!  And we’re going to get another week of pissing and moaning about how bad the team is. 
 

Granted...  this was the definition of an   Ugly win.  Look at the stats and the Jets O outplayed ours all game. But we scored and made the plays when we had to!   That’s what champion caliber teams do!

 

Yeah, they had entirely too many drops.   Our WRs seemingly never make the tough, contested catch; while each week Jackson is giving up circus catches.  Its odd!    
 

There’s a lot to clean up. Players need to get healthy.  The O needs to get in sync.  But we’re 10-3!! Beat a solid team. And grinding out tough wins.    Gotta love it.

Love the win and wins. No doubt about that. However, they do come with a bit of disappointment. Maybe I'm placing too much expectation on the team. I see a team that has gut out difficult wins game after game even vs less than good teams. Each week seems like a dog fight to win. I see a struggling offense with a lack of identity, weapons, and consistency. Lastly, I'm not sure how this defense holds up to explosive elite offenses. The Miami game will let us know if this team is a pretender or contender sort of speak.

Agreed.  That was supposed to be Crowder, but unfortunately he was hurt.  MacKenzie was never going to be that guy, and unsurprisingly, the 5th round draft choice is not up to it yet.  It is a problem.  The running backs have simply not been able to take up the slack.

Divisional games are always tough!

 

The weather was atrocious at the start of the game. Neither offense could do anything until that rain/sleet turned to snow just before halftime. Don't know how folks aren't taking that into account.

 

The Jets have become a very good team. They have a lot of talent. They have a top defense.

 

It was a GOOD win folks!

 

Yes, there were too many drops, I would have liked Dorsey to use the run game more (but Jets are solid up front, so maybe they weren't feeling confident in it), and outside of the shot play to Dawson, I wasn't thrilled with the play calling on the last two drives, but I'm not going to feel bad about this one. They did what they needed to do. And once the Bills answered the Jets TD early in the 2nd half, the game was never really in doubt after that (except through our nervous, waiting for the 2nd shoe to drop, Bills-fans mentality).

 

Still own 1st place in the division and conference. Team is getting healthier. Stop worrying so much everyone. It's the NFL. No one has blowout wins consistently. We are right where we need to be.

 

Let's Go Buffalo!
