Someone tell the DL if they “beat their block” real easy it’s probably a screen.    Bengals love screens.  

 

Milano usually could read screens well.  Need some other guys to step up because yeah, that's a Bengals staple.

If the bills lose tonight, and look bad doing it, I don’t think anybody around here will be overlooking the Broncos game. I know I won’t.

 

I think if they lose tonight and look bad, we can be honest with ourselves and realize they aren't a playoff threat,.. and may not even make the playoffs.

Must win for multiple reasons tonight:

 

1. Win a huge game against an elite team that has caused us fits in the past

 

2. 1st in AFC East. Would still be a battle to the end. But losing would cause huge sales.

 

3. A loss virtually guarantees we don't get HFA throughout. Even if we came back and won the division. Would need to basically win out and hope KC dropped at least two more games. With Dallas, Miami, Jets, Philly, & KC left, well, that's unlikely to happen.

 

4. Team game. Not the most important. But hoping Allen shows he is better than Burrow going forward. Idk if one game determines that. But I can't say with certainty I would take Allen before Burrow moving forward.

If we win tonight, I'll feel great about winning the division.  Miami is a pretender.  The Bills aren't - they've looked shaky most of the season so far, but they're still a far more serious contender than the Dolphins.

 

The shaky part is weird, or maybe it has had multiple causes: the utter bizarreness of the overseas game; the multiple injuries; the "no running for you, Josh" edict; the injury to Allen... Truth be told, this team is really is not very resilient, the calling card of the Kelly-era Bills. They're a bit fragile, easily thrown off their game. The talent is there, even now. The question is, Do they have the character to pull it off?

You know, if they lose tonight, no one will care if they beat the Broncos next week. Or the Jets the week after. It would take them beating the Eagles for the sporting world to start showing the Bills respect again. I'd like to say I don't care what the media and fans think, but it does make life more pleasant when the known world thinks your team rocks. And it's pretty miserable to see nothing but "Bills suck" articles and posts. 

 

In short, I hope they win tonight. 😁

You have to win big games and the " suck" label will disappear. 

 

You can't lose to the Jets and NE and not expect some negativity. 

 

Tonight we will find out a lot about this team.

This is a 40/60 to win game for the Bills as I see it, going on the road against a hot team and QB who handled us last season. The Bills CAN pull it off, but will have to win the LOS on at least one side of the ball and Josh needs to play really well. I'll be disappointed if they lose but if they look like they belong on the field out there I'll be encouraged that we can still make a run and peak toward the end of the season. A win would put me in a COMPLETELY other place mentally and confidence for the season would be high here on out.

Bills really need to make a statement in this game.  We're the Buffalo Bills, we're coming for the Super Bowl.

Not, we're the Buffalo Bills and just trying to be competitive to make the playoffs. 
Now is the time for the Bills to go for it. I know Josh Allen is going for the Super Bowl, is the rest of the team?

1) The Bills are definitely a dog tonight.

2) I don’t like their chances against the Bungles tonight given multiple factors- absence of strong OC play calls the past month; devastating D injuries; new guys not up to speed; the revival of Joe Cool; better WRs on the Bungles as a whole; McClapper late game brain farts! 
3) BUT,any team can win this year as none are great;

4) Full unrestricted Unicorn Man can pull it off!

I get the importance and the point and partially agree. But if that’s the case what have we found about Miami? They can’t beat a .500 football team? So we have to wait until what week 15 when they play cowboys to see again if they can beat anyone? They beat the teams they should beat so I will give them that credit
