BillsFanSD Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 12 minutes ago, Bob in STL said: Great news on Damar! Incredible. Does anyone know how the Bills are doing with practice, game planning and preparation for the Pats*? I can't believe they would be able to function normally as far as their weekly routine would go. Having this next game at home will help, not having to travel, being in familiar surroundings, and having the full force of Bills Mafia there of course will provide a lift. It also helps that New England just isn't a particularly good team. I honestly think we could simply go with the exact same game plan from last time and win a pretty straightforward contest. The team's mental state is really the only unknown variable here. The talent gap is large and known. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would especially make sensebif they go through with the proposed plan of Bills and Bengals making the game up the following weekend and scrapping the Super Bowl bye week. Sounds like they're cancelling the Bills-Bengals game now; it won't be finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday it was reported they had meetings and a walk-through practice. That implies the coaches have been "on it" putting together a game plan that they're installing. It's usual, I believe, for the Weds after a Mon game to be a walk-through. It was probably pretty hard for them to focus. It's said that an update from Damar's father was part of the team meeting, so that probably helped a lot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DapperCam Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 I think we could beat New England with our backups if it comes to that. Reminds me of Barkley shredding the Dolphins for a half a couple years ago when they had a win-and-in game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only would it be "bad mojo", but it would be an unfair advantage to the other playoff teams to make the Bills and Bengals squeeze in another game right before the playoffs start.....lets just move past that game and focus on the Pats game. If the Bills have to go on the road to play KC in the playoffs, so be it. It stinks to lose the chance at home field advantage, but I believe the Bills will be up to the task no matter where they have to play. Go Bills!!

I really like our chances no matter what happens. I have a feeling this team is going to play w/ real inspiration the rest of the way. It's been said before, but what an incredible set of circumstances over the past several months: - the Tops shooting in June, which occurred just around the corner from the old Rockpile - having to play in 115-degree heat against a shadyed opponent, with an already-depleted defensive roster - losing Micah Hyde and Von Miller for the season - Dane Jackson's horrific injury and subsequent recovery - admit it, everyone thought he was done - Josh's elbow injury that originally was reported as a 2-4 week thing (he never missed a game) - the November snowstorm that stripped us of a home game - the December bomb cyclone that kept the team in Chicago another night and forced yet another round of digging out upon return - in addition to claiming at least 40 lives - Monday night, where a teammate literally died on the field before being brought back to life This can break a team, or it can make a team. The way this team has responded all year to adversity, I have no doubt it will be the latter. I haven't wanted to be at the stadium as much as I want to be at Sunday's game in a long, long while. They're going to absolutely blow the ***** doors off the Pats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is exactly what it looks like - attempt to injure Allen and he succeeded. Even that was not as blatant or hideous as Hurst lowering his head and launching himself at Taron Johnson’s head as he lay prone on the ground, giving him a concussion. Both plays should have been flagged at the time, and I believe, given different circumstances, both would be under review by the league for potential discipline. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chandler's Hands Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) Maybe someone has already suggested this...but I'd like to see the responders on the field who attended to Hamlin be recognized before the game on Sunday. They were faced with the ultimate "critical play" and did their jobs, apparently, about as well as anyone could do it.
