I don’t recall a Diggs drop…

The deep pass on 3rd & 15 that was in Diggs hand at the 5 yard line and he had it wrestled away by the DB.  I consider that a "dropped pass".  All Diggs had to do was keep his hands on the ball, wr wins the 50/50 possession, and the Bills have 1st & goal at the 5 and about to take the lead.

His underthrow to Diggs on that deep shot was a guaranteed TD and cost them 7 points as they ended up punting on that drive. The key play in the game and it essentially cost them the game. Allen was not good today until it was too late.

Disagree. That was a very late developing play.  Those are not the kind you hit the WR in stride for.  That pass & catch were exactly how that sort of play is supposed to work.

 

IMO Allen had a great game that was marred by dropped passes, penalties and the refusal of Dorsey to adjust to what the Jags were doing until to late in the game.

I blame dorsey. All we had to do was throw, throw, throw. I think he's been paying too much attention to establish the run for play action. We didn't need it. This was a beat there secondary game. It showed at the end when we were forced to do it. I dont blame Gabe for one drop. Thing was a frigging bullet too.

If we didn’t run the ball out of shot gun maybe the run game would have been more successful

That was over 60 yards in the air bro.  How far you think QBs throw.

It’s true he under threw that but I think your overall point is wrong. Allen played good, but not great. 
 

Playcalling, refs, jet lag, rested Jags, and drops cost us this game. 
 

Chiefs would’ve won this game with Mahomes having the same exact day as Allen. He had the same exact day as Allen against the Jets but his team won it.

I don’t think Diggs ever had possession.

The call to Denver for Jerry jeudy needs to be made. If they lose to the jets today you make that call. A second might get it done 

Could have gotten Calvin Ridley for nothing this offseason.

The Gabe drop was a killer. 
 

We finally had momentum.  Puts us from being 1st down in FG range, down 4 with plenty of time left, to 3rd and long / punt. 


As good as Gabe played he made a really bad error when the margin for error was small. Just frustrating as the penalties put the Bills behind so much and then they made a few errors and were depleted on defense due to injuries

It may feel that way to you, but it's dishonest crediting Diggs with showing up but not Davis.  Their contributions were nearly identical except the Davis didn't commit a key TO.

 

Man, the Davis hate/bias is strong here. 

 

 

Diggs is a bigger McKenzie: a choke player on an otherwise good offense.

 

Not a hot take to say the Bills would be better off without him.

It’s too late for that. It’s time to make a move to go for it and save this season. This offense would be unreal with jeudy

How was Josh off?  His first 4 incompletions were 3 drops and a throw away when OL got blown up.  

I thought Allen was very good today, but I also thought that the “drop” by Cook was a pretty poor throw — too hot and behind him. Other than that and underthrow to the wide open Diggs on the 48-yard bomb (a deeper throw would have been a TD), he was on fire.

Nah, he hit Cook in the hands. That was an atrocious drop

Too hot and behind him. Even Warner, who praised Allen all game, said it wasn’t a good throw.

He had to throw that ball more quickly with the pressure bearing down on him on that play.
