Bills play like this vs the Bengals it’ll be a long game.

Stop with this dumb s%*+. They won, that’s all that matters. Some of you need to let games actually be played before you start whining and pouting about the following week

I seem to recall saying division games worry me, no matter what.  They gotta clean up their act, but that was a weird game all around.  I think it was a hard reality check.  Hopefully it shocks Josh into realizing he doesn't (and shouldn't) try and hero ball it the whole game.  McD and Dorsey really need to have a talk with him.  I still think Buffalo can beat anyone, but they need to settle down and play a disciplined game.  Josh keeps going for home runs, this team's gonna Casey their way out of the playoffs.

The Bills hit an emotional wall today. I was expecting it at some point after the Hamlin incident. They were very lucky to win but I’ve witnessed the opposite happen to us so I won’t apologize for the victory.

 

On to the Divisional round. They need to refuel the emotions tank if at all possible.

To be fair this win against Miami is very satisfying knowing they felt they had a chance, only to ***** it away and send them home with a moral victory. 

 

Unfortunately for them moral victories don't count in the post season😂😂😂

Josh needs to stop giving the ball away. Two interceptions and three fumbles today, was it? Sure, all of them weren’t his fault and all of them didn’t end up in Miami’s hands, but still not good enough. 
 

Third string QB or not, Thompson played quite well even though Waddle couldn’t catch anything today.

I was hanging out at a friend's birthday today with the game on in the background.  One of the guests, a 420 enthusiast, complained that the game was going really long.  I checked my phone, and to my surprise he was correct.  This game lasted an eternity.  It was exhausting.  The miscues were infuriating.  The inability to run the clock late(r) in the game absolutely blew my mind (in a bad way).

 

Glad that the Bills won, of course, but this type of game is the type of game that I thought the team was well beyond at this point in this regime.

For some reason, the refs really, really, really didn't want to call the Fins for delay of game.  They snapped the ball a full second after the clock showed zero NUMEROUS times.

 

Yeah, I was raging at the screen multiple times for that reason.

Right now, we've got no consistent pass rush and a patchwork secondary.  I pray the coaches come up with a ball control offense next week, would help hide our defensive weaknesses.  I'd love to see some quick hitters to the backs and some slants.  Get Cook the ball in space... the kid has serious wheels.

That was an F performance for me. I don't care they won and looked good at times. They played arrogant and aggressive football early on trying to beat the Dolphins 55-3 instead of just comfortably beating them 28-10. 

 

I doubt we will see this again, I think the Bills will be far more restrained against the teams we will be playing from this point forward.

 

Not safe but just not I don't care I'm doing it anyway stupid

It’s partially the mechanics of the call. The ref sees zeros then looks to the ball. It can’t be instant.

It was very frustrating. I get that the clock can get to zero and you can snap it, but they were snapping it well after 0 multiple times without getting flags. Plus, they used all their time outs preventing delay of game penalties too. Just insane.

A more conservative, balanced offensive game plan and this game is 49-10

Not even balanced. They could’ve thrown shorter to intermediate routes all game. Allen wanted to show off.

 

Honestly they could’ve thrown the ball every snap. Just take what’s there.

He's had a lot of warnings about time and place already. Saying that, his turnovers don't bother me as much today - well, the interceptions anyway. I don't think they're purely on him. But those play calls in the fourth quarter, with throwing deep, throwing deep, throwing deep. Just... please, stop it.

I don't think it was Dorsey that kept turning the ball over.

I have to hear a legitimate defense of Dorsey. The play calls are awful. Terrible offensive game management. Long developing plays with a terrible Oline. There seems to be no game plan whatsoever. Just ad hoc offensive play calls. 
 

I think Dorsey is awful. Please somebody prove me wrong instead of posting a reaction or just out right insulting me. Make an argument for this turd.

This is why they play the games Turk.  Rejoice

Has a coach ever pulled Allen aside and discussed ball protection? Perhaps a teammate? And I mean literally how to protect and secure a football within your hands and arms. It could be helpful. He needs to carry a ball around town all week.
