PayDaBill$ Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) Both teams were moving the ball prior to the injury. Burrow was throwing it pretty well. I do worry about our secondary a bit. Key is the pretty simple -> IMO team with the least mistakes wins. JA needs to keep the googly eyes 👀 in check. I see those eyes get big as saucers & darting back & forth i start to worry. GO Bills! Edited January 18, 2023 by PayDaBill$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Ballin Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 I'll give us a slight edge because this game is being played on our field. So 60% chance of winning. If Josh Allen turn overs the ball 2+ times then the chance of winning goes down a lot to 25% chance of winning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone assumes the Bengals were just gonna wipe the floor with us 7-minutes into the game. Bills moved the ball just as easy against their defense too. Sure did, but they settle for a field goal. Will never know, but would bet anything that game would have been 14-3 in 5 more plays. Didn't feel good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeerie Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 18 minutes ago, peterpan said: Well, I threw the “chip on shoulder” comment in because of how the game cancellation hurt the Bengals more than anyone else. The NFL didn’t use their own rules of win % and told the Bengals/Ravens it’s a coin flip. also, they were playing well against us, and when the game was cancelled, they lost their chance at 1st seed. and the Bills, they certainly don’t play like a team with a chip on their shoulder. Maybe they will against KC? I beg to differ regarding the NFL rules. The Bills and Ravens were the only teams in control of their own destiny going into that week 17 game. Buffalo wins out, they win the conference. Ravens win out, they win their division. Bengals could get the conference only by winning out coupled with a KC loss. So with the Bills v Bengals game cancelled, they put KC at number 1 by virtue of winning % and they awarded the Bengals the Division for the same reason. However...as accommodations for the Bills and Ravens losing the control over their own destinies and losing the conference and division, they put the AFCCG at a neutral field should KC and Buffalo meet, and they decided on a coin flip for a Ravens/Bengals playoff rematch. Winning % was used for seeding and no rules were changed with the exception of those two accommodations. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WotAGuy Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 9 minutes ago, Georgia Bill said: I don't think they should. I think it actually would increase the pressure on the Bills, feeling like they have to win for him (on top of the pressure they already feel). It also puts a lot of media scrutiny on a guy who a) didn't want it/slash wishes it never happened and b) probably just wants to lay low and fully recover. That's just my opinion. Some here think it would be good to jack up the team and the crowd. I don't think it's needed. I feel pretty much the same. I thought it would have been cool to have Damar do a video shoutout before the Pats game, but now it’s all kind of settled down and time to move on. I heard someone call into WGR saying they should wear the 3 patch the rest of this year. He got shot down and I agree it was good as a one game thing.

I think there's also more simple logic to the Balt/Cincy coin flip than many people realize: If Balt won vs Cincy in final week of the season, then if we had beat Cincy in week prior, Balt wins division and HFA in wild card round but if we lost to Cincy, Cincy wins division and gets HFA. If you assume the outcome of the Bills/Bengals is a coin flip or close to that, then a coin flip is the right decision to decide HFA if Balt had beat Cincy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledInIllinois Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 100% Bills have only played the Bills twice in playoffs, both in 1980s... They are 0-2, both in Cincy. They make it 1-2 on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinceThe70s Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 I'd be surprised if any team in the league looks at a game against us and thinks, yeah we got this. I'd say the same about the Bengals. So am I confident we'll win? Absolutely not. Do I know we can win? Absolutely. Will we win? 3-4 hours on Sunday will tell the tale - not some pessimistic Bills fan who dismisses everything the team does well or optimistic fan who ignores the warts. In the midst of my 4th quarter anxiety (which was sky high!) and with his Mom and Grandmoms getting just as aggravated and questioning why the Bills were making mistakes my high schooler said something to the effect that this is why we watch sports. In the moment, he nailed it IMO. Go Bills! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffalo Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Last 4 games, even with all the turnovers, the Bills have scored 32, 35, 35 and 34 points. That right there is giving me a confidence boost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billieve420 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Thought it was 50/50 after the Bills survived the Dolphins. However, with the injuries for Cincy on the o-line and them being equally unimpressive against the Ravens. Will go 60/40 Bills. Will be a dogfight and wouldn’t be surprised if Bengals pulled off upset. McDermott/Frazier better come up with solid plan to attack the Bengals up front.

Goin Breakdown Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) Im always a bit of a downer. I'm sorry but it's 17 year drought scars. In those 17 years I knew they sucked so it didn't hurt as much as it does now. We know this is an awesome team so everything involved is heightened with me. Yeah I knee jerk at times in the GDT. Most of I I regret lol. Allllll that being said. I'm just nervous. I think we could blow the top off them or lose. It's the NFL. In my heart of hearts I think we win though.

Success Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 I'm over 80%. Feeling VERY good about this game. Strangely, I feel like the Bills - and particularly Allen - are being underestimated. And I think that O-line situation is going to be very tough for the Bengals. We don't have a great pass rush, but it will be effective on Sunday. Cook is also gonna run wild. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOKBILLS Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) Well... Confident? I will say this...I'm 100% confident that the Bills will beat anyone if they're clicking on Offense and not turning the ball over. And there is always a chance that switch gets flipped. When it does, you're not going to beat this team. The Defense is built to take away the ball when opponents are forced into must pass situations. That's why, when the Offense is clicking generally, it can get out of hand fast. That's McD's dream complimentary football...Get the lead, don't turn it over, create turnovers in the secondary. I'm confident that Bills team is unstoppable. I'm hoping we get that team the next 3 weeks... Edited January 18, 2023 by KOKBILLS 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the bills are the better team overall, but we've watched them shoot themselves in the foot so many times this season. While I think the bills are fully capable of playing a mistake free game, it's hard to comprehend they will. Being at home is a big advantage (I think).
