Buffalo / Jacksonville 2nd half game thread

Recommended Posts

Two issues:

 

1. Not a home game.  Bills were tired and it shows.  Jax resting all week and Bills admit to being tired.  JA missing plays, DL missing run contain and pass interference.  

 

2. poor travel planning by bills and failure to have players sleep on plane. 

 

The schedule sucked, and the Bills played i to it by not traveling well and their trainers failing to stretch these guys out (injuries) and poor travel planning by them.

McDummy has wasted a heroic effort by a defense that was undermanned, injury-riddled, third-string, gassed, and they gave their all.  Not kicking the 60-yard FG in a game this close was a fatal mistake.  We could tie the damn game with a TD and a 2-pt. conversion, but now it's a two-possession game, with a gassed D.  Well done coaching staff.  How's that sport science staff working out?

To me this game came down to that horrid drop by Gabe Davis. He catches that, and that drive continues..  Been downhill since. 

 

No way. Dorsey has been playing into the strength of the cover 2 shell all game long. The same play calling that lost the Jets game.

Under the circumstances the D did as well as anyone could expect in this game. Gave our Offense chance after chance to make a game of this. 

 

Embarrassing effort by the Bills Offense and Dorsey. We needed the Offense to step up in this game. The injuries on Defense are almost laughable (to keep from crying) they are so bad. And not being able to score more than 7 points with 7 mins left in the 4th quarter is a complete joke. 

 

This Offense is feast or complete famine... And they have fixed nothing, because when they get punched in the face they still crumble...

Traveling to London is a major issue.  How you can leave Jacksonville over there for 2 weeks to reap the benfit of their acclimation is beyond me.  Completely unfair and cheap scheduling by the NFL.

 

Welcome to Rogerball. The guys is a complete moron.

This happens every time we have multiple defensive starters sat thinking we can just get through the game. Happened in Miami last year as well.  NFL really screwed us on this one. No way they could look at an offensive powerhouse just shut down by a mediocre defense they gave the total advantage too by 2 games in a row in London.

Maybe the Bills should have shown more respect and flown over sooner. Wouldn't be surprised if jet lag has played a part in this.

Of course it has

What would you have done?

And down our 2 starting cbs and elite DT and LB, the O has been the biggest disappointment.  They're dominating t.o.p 

Penalties are disgusting

Nah the time change and travel is a ***** joke. 

 

People underestimate and don’t understand the criticality of sleep. It’s not just being a little tired. Your brain is physically and chemically out of whack. Even if they had traveled earlier they still would’ve been a bit off but maybe it wouldn’t have been as terrible as this as been. 

 

It’s a joke that we have to be punished like this so that the league can “expand” or whatever. 

Problem is the 9:30 a.m. biological clock start. The time change would be largely negated with a late London kickoff.
