Livinginthepast Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 First of all the way we were poorly prepared and the way the Bengals felt disrespected (like the Bills were looking past them) before this game were huge factors. I think we would have lost in a dome too. However I agree with the snow playing havoc with our defense and offensive timing. The offense especially looked out of sync and part of that was the snowy conditions. Weirdly the Bengals were absolutely unaffected by the snow. In the end the overall quality of this game was diminished by the weather and this is probably the 3rd or 4th time in the past 2 years that the weather has negatively affected this team, including moving the game to Detroit. I think its the height of stupidity to not build a dome in Buffalo or at least a retractable roof option. But the way things went today? we were going to lose anyway! Quote
Fallser Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 Bengals don’t have this weather, didn’t bother them. We were soft, that’s all that matters, dome, grass, turf, dirt lot, wouldn’t matter we woulda been whipped anywhere. 2 Quote
SCBills Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 Bengals still win big, but also the weather affected us more. Both can be true. Throw “Bills struggle in snow game” onto the pile of dog **** that was this performance. Quote
streetkings01 Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) How do you come outta that game thinking we had a chance? Bengals put us in the oven @ 350 degrees and cooked our ass! Mobb Deep said it best……..well done meat something delicious! Edited January 23, 2023 by streetkings01 Quote

So that's why we lost Expand The Bills may have won if they showed up , but they didn’t. Agree , it had nothing to do with the weather or the stadium. Quote

We couldn’t get the offense going with the snow. If we had a dome we would have won Expand Yes, if part of the dome would have collapsed and landed on Joe Burrow and a few O linemen... Then MAYBE this team could have beat the Bengals today. 1 Quote
BigAl2526 Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 I don't know that the OP is right, but I think it is clear that Buffalo is not as effective a foul weather team as we would like, and as they need to be, playing in an outdoor stadium in Buffalo. 2 Quote

I was saying that the Bills never bothered to show up today. They may have won the game if they had. Quote
1onemangang7 Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 No running game all year and people think maybe its the stadium. A couple of more cooks and a run and shoot offense and we'll be all set. Quote

Sad Expand It feels like the fans got appropriate effort from this game given what they put into it. And I include myself in that, because I was close to buying a ticket but waffled out of it. It was a disgrace. Quote

Expand That was a stupid narrative put out there by some simpleton Bengals player(s) like Joe Mixon. The Bengals sold AFC Championship tickets weeks ago , as did the Chiefs, Bills and probably any team that could host. That’s how the league does it. Quote
Success Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 We're a speed team - not a physical team. We have to learn to be both. A great team has to be great no matter what the conditions. Quote
