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

[BuffaloBill]

Thread opened and unlocked at game’s end.

 

Go Bills!!!!!

[ChronicAndKnuckles]

God did they need this win !

[H2o]

Survive and remain the #1 seed in the AFC. 

[buffalobillswin]

Saleh kicking the fg on 4th and 1 was one of the dumbest coaching decisions of the year.

[schoolhouserock]

Can’t wait for Saturday night! Revenge tour continues.

[ganesh]

Tough game.  Both teams battled out.  The Bills defense came through.   Some questionable play calling by the Bills offense.

[Tierlifer]

Hat tip Mike White and the Jets are definitely building something nice. So glad not to have to play them the rest of the regular season. They are damn pesky this year. 

[No_Matter_What]

People will complain a lot but we keep winning. I don't care how it's done. And Jets are a good team.

Seemed like those short passes right over the middle were open most of the game.  Surprised we didn't focus there more.  Happy to get out with the win.  This is the kind of game we've frittered away before.

Just win baby.

[Success]

Tough, hard-fought division win, against a tough opponent.  That was a thing of beauty.

 

Shout out to White - he should have started all year for the Jets.  He is a very tough player.

 

[K-9]

Sometimes, it’s like pulling teeth. Glad that’s over. Big tip of the hat to Mike White. Guts personified. 

[DapperCam]

Big difference between this game and past games where the offense wasn’t clicking. Josh Allen 2 TDs and zero turnovers.

 

He played within himself, didn’t force it, and we got the dub.

Terrible play calling.

[Donuts and Doritos]

Great win. But the drops have to stop & O-line needs to settle in faster. (59%completion percentage)

The OL was brutal today against a tough Jets front seven.   The Jets are going to be a tough team for years to come

[IndyMark]

Glad to see the particular DL personnel on the last two drives, gotta have the consistent presence and play makers on the field at that point.  AJ, DaQuan, Boogie, and Rosseau....what a great young core. Plus, Settle Jr. played solid.  Those are 4-5 solid players, just need to bring in a few more.

Agree. If it was 4th and 10 it would be different. 

[Lieutenant Aldo Raine]

Someone in the media needs to call Sean out on Dorsey’s play calling.  

[Toledo Bill]

Disappointing for a “revenge” game. Are the Jets better than expected or are we just a little overrated? 
Happy with a win it just doesn’t seem like we are very sharp for late in the season.

[Big Turk]

Good win in tough conditions. Guys dropping balls all game. Sometimes you gotta win games this way down the stretch. Kelly led Bills had a few of these every year...usually around this time of year.

[Heitz]

Hard fought won, but well deserved (and needed)!  

 

[gonzo1105]

All that matters are wins this time of the year. A much improved Jets team in bad weather. Take em and move on. We're 10-3 and have beaten two divisional rivals in a row and 5 in a row. The offense has to click better next week.

[Pine Barrens Mafia]

I'll take that w

He’s tough.  Needs to learn to move right or left from straight ahead linebackers attacks or won’t survive.

[bobobonators]

Rousseau stepping up!

 

Tough game. On offense, we continue to make too many mistakes by the way of drops. We need to clean that up and I think we will. 
 

Just keep winning. Go bills!

AJ right?

[Bill Grundy]

I wonder if these tough games are better prep for the playoffs than just blowing teams out. 

 

Perhaps not. But we are learning about potential weaknesses all the time

Yep vs a good d bills played hold onto the w at the end

Tough game. Got the heart racing. Jets D is good. Glad we won. Go Bills

White did look slow and couldn't cover Wilson for most of the day

[Barnaby Wilde]

Dawson Knox should get a flyer for his drops.  He did kickstart this offence.  

[ArtVandalay]

Dirty win, I'll take it. We almost got swept by the Jets, competely outcoached vs them. That's a team we should be putting the screws to and we scratch and clawed to avoid a sweep. 

 

Team has a lot to straighten out to be a serious super bowl contender. 

[Nextmanup]

Not the prettiest game, but a WIN nonetheless to throw on the pile of wins.

 

Very effective game; we can run the table.

Yes

[HappyDays]

The reason this game was remotely close is that the Jets skill position players caught every pass including a few tough catches, while our skill position players flubbed a lot of easy catches and had zero tough catches. That single issue made the offense look a worse than it really was. It's hard to move the ball against a really good defense when you keep shooting yourself in the foot.

[VaMilBill]

Dorsey and his playcalling has been pretty bad all season. But today was particularly bad on those last drives before the 2 minute warning

 

i hate how quickly we abandon the run in general. Especially in a game like this

Flacco has to be thinking “a guy with liquid ribs is the better option than me playing.”

You are an idiot.  Apologies to DC Tom.
