Bills!Win! Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 (edited) We have now lost 6 games all by 6 points or less. If we had those 3 players healthy, what is our record? We obviously lost the jets game even though they all played. Our other losses after the Jets include: Jaguars - L (I think they would’ve still lost this game due to the weird circumstances and jet lag) Patriots - W (even though they didn’t play good until they went no huddle at the end, our defense wouldn’t have let Mac Jones take the lead in that game) Broncos - W (This could’ve been a dominant game similar to the dolphins game if completely healthy on defense) Bengals - L (Bengals have our number. Score probably would’ve been the same) Eagles - W (Bills win this one in overtime. Milano would’ve single handedly won the game for us with some turnovers and a stop in overtime) 9-3. You can’t lose your starting defensive tackle, all pro linebacker and starting cornerback from a great defensive team and expect them to still be great.

SCBills Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 McDermott had all his healthy starters today, which includes a 1 for 1 replacement of Tre White in Rasul Douglas and a suitable mitigation at DT with Linval Joseph. We’re really only down a LB at this point. I really don’t want to hear this excuse. Different players / Same McD bs. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan130 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 (edited) Every single team has injuries. Bills have 3 starters out and let’s be honest, Douglas is just as good as Tre now so technically 2. Eagles today had Cox go out and their starting linebacker There is no excuse for letting up 31 points in the 2nd half/OT Edited November 27, 2023 by BillsFan130 2 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrags Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I think the bigger issue is, despite not having these guys on the field. We were still in a position to win every one of those games and we still lost them. Why? Because our loser Head Coach has no idea how to learn from his past mistakes. Over and over and over and over and over and over… 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheyCallMeAndy Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 It’s not JUST McD, but at the end of the day he’s the HC. The depth at DT, S, CB you brought in were also all terrible (although they were deemed great pickups at the time). BB always said he’d rather let a guy go a year too early than a year too late. We kept Hyde/Poyer too long. Age is starting to catch up with their 2023 season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t lose your starting defensive tackle, all pro linebacker and starting cornerback from a great defensive team and expect them to still be great. The common denominator is that all three of these guys are playmakers. How do defenses get stops late when the game is on the line? A huge sack by Jones, a fumble caused by Milano, or a pick by White. I can tell you that Phillips, Dodson, and Benford aren’t really guys that can make those plays. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably fair to add Von Miller to that list. That makes three legit NFL playmakers and possibly the baddest mf on this roster in Jones. We have those 4 guys healthy and we're playing for the #1 seed right now. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's likely getting fired after the season and Pegula will eat that ridiculous extension. Keep Beane and find the best offensive HC available. Everyone has their own favorite. I like Ben Johnson but maybe Brady stays in some capacity. Edited November 27, 2023 by LABILLBACKER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's failed to do the one thing he had to do in 2019.....and that's build a dominant offense around Josh. He selfishly choose his lust for D.

Gunsgoodtime Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 We lost major people on Defense early. Shattered my hopes at anything SB related this year. Had no idea we had so many other issues to fix, I figured our WR would suck, no idea how people got hyped about Sherfield or Harty, fools gold easily. We have not had a real wr Corp since we had Diggs, Beasley, Brown/Sanders, and Gabe as last option since, well, they all left and got replaced with less talented people for Josh. But hey, that Defense is something else! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re really only down a LB at this point. We don't even have to be down a LB if someone would realize Son Of Dod is a liability that opposing coaches that don't suck (i.e. Philly) will exploit when he's in.

strive_for_five_guy Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 We were up 24-14 heading into the fourth quarter today, dominating the game. Whether we had these other guys or not, we should not have lost today. Why can’t McD and his vaunted D get off the field in the 4th quarter when the chips are down? Why is Von Miller out on the field ever, at this point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobills404 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Excuses, excuses, excuses. Eagles were missing Goedert and Lane Johnson, and the Brown, Smith, and Swift were all dealing with injuries this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
