I had to do something right after cook dropped the pass. How did the bills not score on that drive? They were close 

2 straight false starts and Allen went for the pass to the sticks instead of a safer 7ish yard pass to at least get a FG.  Then special teams flag, and 2 or 3 D penalties.  Classic stuff.

I haven't seen a flag yet that wasn't our fault.

The facemask was clear. The encroachment was clear. The defensive holding was clear.

 

The defensive holding is a play that happens to every team on every snap. The refs just decided to call it there for some reason. 

[Bubba Gump]

Brady fell in love with the run game too fast. He needs to open it up. What happened to let Josh be Josh??? 

[QLBillsFan]

Bills have moved the ball.. time for a long drive !

[Chandler#81]

Not liking the early going..

[stevestojan]

For everyone blaming the refs, honest question: which penalty was incorrect? 
 

There are a lot of penalties against this team because they committed a lot of penalties. 
 

It’s embarrassing to watch people blame the refs. Turn the game on and watch. The Bills are a sadly undisciplined team. That’s it. It’s not some weird conspiracy to keep a mediocre team out of the playoffs. 

[KOKBILLS]

This team does not play well from behind so far this year. They need 6 on this drive really bad. 

[TSOL]

MCdermotts a$$ in the frying pan

Anyone who's blaming refs just can't acknowledge the team is ***** for some reason.

 

 

Most games are decided by a few plays a game, giving a team an advantage on plays besides that definitely helps even more.

[HomeskillitMoorman]

Why do people want years more of McD’s brand of undisciplined, underprepared football? We’re a joke. 

[finn]

How lucky are the Eagles? Mahomes hits his receiver in his hands, and he drops it. Allen hits Cook in his hands, and he drops it.

[NoHuddleKelly12]

Players like Cook and Philips lose games for you. A winning team can't employ players like that. No matter how talented they may or may not be.

As bad as Phillips has been in previous weeks with costly penalties I think the only way to stop this tush push garbage is jumping the snap…the eagles pick up 4th and 1s like 99% of the time

Not sure why the NFL thinks the Eagles need help from the refs.  It's the Bills they are playing. 

[Mynamemike]

Nice catch Diggs

[Prospector]

The refs have already called this game. We are going for Gabe’s replacement now

[Buffalo Barbarian]

Lets go !!

the truth is they have beat themselves so far.  a little offensive rhythm and this game will be tied. 

[PonyBoy]

I said my stream was behind. Is it still only 7-0 or no?

Ease up a bit. Frustrating so far yes, but c'mon.

[Niagara Dude]

We need points on this drive,  something 

[Chaos]

When your thought before every single play is "i wonder what they will f up this time", you have a head coaching problem. 

[Trev]

After all the good football today and we get this?? McD. What are you doing?

[nedboy7]

Diggs trying to take some coaches out.  Nice work. 

[Success]

I've lost count of the "what if" plays I've seen from the Bills this year.

 

They've gotta win this game. I don't want to be thinking about that Cook drop for weeks.

 

[jahnyc]

Have to say that Cook dropping the pass that would would have gone for a TD changed the complexion of the first quarter, and maybe the game.

[Prospector]

Let’s lose the all the rest and keep Brady… he seems good

[Toledo Bill]

Put a parka on Cook and leave it there.

[sonyab1974]

Wow! First quarter over already? Geez that was fast! 😂

[stevestojan]

Well, at least the Sabres are a young team on the rise. 
 

Signed, 

 

The Sabres for the last 12 years. 
 

Go Bandits (they’re still a team right?)

no, I like the idea. He is trying to slow that rush down— get them honest. 

[Roundybout]

We're a team with a ton of injuries that's faded. You want a team that's a joke? Look at Carolina.

Not if McDermott is around. It'll be a safety

Right? Did people think we were going to roll them? Should be 7-7.

[nedboy7]

Are people really asking for Cook to be benched after a drop?  Dumb.

McD doesn’t want that. Isn’t that obvious to everyone by now? Brady isn’t in charge, McD is.
