It's not even remotely close comparing it to the opposite spectrum. In theory only you are correct. No way man, I've seen the people who criticize this team go crazy on people being positive. It goes both ways here. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then fly out on Wednesday. You get two days at home with your facilities and your bed to rest in. Then on Wednesday you travel and that gives you three days before game day to adjust. That would make the most sense to me I travel every week for work. The farther away from travel day you can get the better off you are. If they needed Monday for injuries the should have left Tuesday morning. JMO but I have flown for work 50 times a year for 15 years even short trips mess ya up for at least a day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncharacteristic holding and interference because they were not at their best, and finally multiple injuries only to the Bills. This team was not ready to play and they looked jet-lagged. Meh. They didn’t look jet lagged in the 4th quarter on offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toledo Bill Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Some things are acceptable in a loss. What’s not acceptable: Being totally unprepared for the Jags going for the two point conversion. The team not being ready to play. The regression of the running game. Lack of focus and discipline (penalties). I think all of these things (and more) were attitude and planning issues which go back to coaching. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted October 8, 2023 Author Share Posted October 8, 2023 On the bright side, AJE looked like TJ Watt out there. Once we get Rousseau back and Von up to speed, I can’t think of anyone in the league with a better EDGE room. Praying Daquan can come back this season and Poona can hold it down until then, because this DL is going to be what we need to rely on with Hyde/Poyer on their last legs, a disaster class behind Benford/Jackson and what looks to be Milano done for the year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of two minutes injuries don't stop the clock. So once he was off the field the clock would have started again. Bills would have to use a TO regardless? The refs have returned time outs called on injury plays. Maybe the debate is we called it before the player went down but I have never seen a team have to keep the timeout in use after an injury. The intentional batting of the ball out of bounds was also a penalty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtw3 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I am reading a lot of people talking about the Jaguars like they are some trash team from 3 years ago. That team won their division and a playoff game last year. They are likely going to run away with the South again this year. I am not trying to say they are juggernauts or anything but at the end of the season, I don't think that this loss will look as atrocious as some of you are taking it, injuries aside. We played poorly with a decimated defense and still had the ball down 1 score at the end. The sun will rise again tomorrow everyone. Preferably on US EST for our Bills. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far this season Dorsey has only had two good games. Dolphins I’ll admit was a flawless game plan. The raiders was also well coached. but every other game has had a mediocre offensive performance to include the commanders game. Keep in mind with all those turnovers, we still only had 16 points going into the 4th quarter. It was the Epenesa TD that turned that game on its head. dorsey is holding this team back. Almost to the point we may want to consider firing him in season to get more juice out of our offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like contagious in 1 direction or the other. When it’s good, it’s great and when it’s bad it’s pitiful That's been the Buffalo Bills offense since 2019. Some call it "The Josh Allen Experience". Although I don't blame him much for this one...which I guess means it's contagious and the other players and even the offensive coordinator have become infected even when he himself is not showing symptoms.

Sort of surprised the NFLPA agreed with it. I really don't think that by playing games overseas the players are getting more money than the exorbitant amount they already get.
