Yes, but not as consistently as this Bills team.  KC doesn’t do it as much as this Bills team. Players are not going to be mistake free but this team has some coaching deficiencies. 

KC commits penalties.  They just aren't called.

Another game interrupted by life.   In Austin TX for work and the hotel didn’t even have the game on in the lobby or bar because they could not get it.   They just didn’t care….
 

Watched as much as I could (on my phone) while “networking” with co-workers and getting updates from my son….so I don’t have a great feel for what happened but hey a win is a win!

I just cannot understand this board tonight lol you don’t risk turning the ball over at midfield against the bucs…offense moved the ball all night, dumb playcall from the goal line is a valid criticism, and we will not be punting on 4th and shorts against the bengals and eagles of the league.  
 

the bucs defense ain’t bad and our offensive line held up that’s a huge win 

 

Don't let these posters bait you.  Punting was the right thing to do.  They come out in droves for the GDT.

Allen played about as well as he could. He had the 1 bad play on a tip pass.  But still the Bills only barely escape with the win. 
When your up 24-10 you can't stop.  I wouldn't say the Bills were lucky to get this win and the Giants win, but they were fortunate that both those teams didn't make 1 more play.  I think the Bengals will beat the 49ers but their not looking that great either so Bills have to take advantage of their extra couple days rest to win next week.

So just a question…do the McD defenders watch a 4th quarter like tonight and think “wow, that was so expertly managed, what a phenomenal head coach we have!”?

I think McDermott has done a great job in creating and managing a winning team culture. However, he is not a great game day coach. I guess you can have everything.

Yeah lining up at the 1 inch line at the goal line in a shotgun formation only to get stuffed a yard and a half behind the line of scrimmage to end up with nothing is a sure stroke of genius.  Same thing happened the week before. Which cost is the game. Don’t even get me started on the defense. Take off your rose colored glasses.  This coaching staff is in way over its head. 

Yea that terrible defense forced a quick punt and our offense got the ball back at the 24 lol. 
 

there’s been a lot of valid criticisms up to this point but tonight I think people are kind of losing the plot imo.  Against the bucs you just don’t risk turning it over at midfield, it takes them far too long to drive down the field.  Against the bucs and eagles and such the same decisions will not be made, those teams can score in a hurry. This whole ‘imagine if we were playing the eagles tonight’ is a moot point

Tampa got every lucky bounce and tip you could hope for, it was crazy seeing how lucky they were in this game

crazy how if Godwin just looks for the ball and makes that grab in the EZ, they’re probably interviewing him (or Baker?) instead of Josh.  And we may have never been treated to the “HEY FITZ SHOW ME YOUR TITZ” sign 🥸

They made it more tense than it needed to be but they came out with a win. They were in control of the game up until the very end. The complexion of the season is vastly different sitting at 5-3 with a “mini-bye”. The offense looked very good they just couldn’t get that final field goal to put the game away when needed in the third. They got the key first down to grind the clock to force the Hail Mary situation which was clutch. 
 

Been saying it since week 3 Shakir needs to be a factor in the offense. His snap count and targets were slowly inching up and he has his breakout. The Bills have 4 legit weapons in the passing attack plus Hardy as a gadget player and Cook out the backfield.

 

Overall a well played game the team looked more confident and I didn’t see any major injuries which makes the extra few days rest that much more valuable

Absolutely.  Needed a win and got it.  Style points mean nothing. 

Style points don't count. You're absolutely correct. I don't think anyone is mad that the Bills won. But the way in which you win can give you insight into future results. And the way they won this game gives many a bad feeding about the rest of the season. That's understandable, no?

Like the penalty that wasn’t called against the Bills tonight that should have been called on the Hail Mary. Like the penalty against the Taron Johnson that wasn’t called that should have been called against the Giants. Every team has penalties not called. If you can’t see the difference between this team and the good teams in the league I don’t know what else to tell you.

We won but I don't know that I would consider it a close out for McD.

 

Our offense worked for the most part today.  We have a mini bye so I expect Dorsey will scheme up some shot gun slow draws to Cook for minus yards against the Bengals.

 

Josh was Josh today.  It was great to see finally.
