It was just a couple weeks ago they gave up to Seattle: 35 points 406 total yards 334 passing to Geno 25 first downs 9 of 14 3rd down conversions sacked once 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 It can't be understated how massive this game is. For everything that has went wrong this season, pretty much all of it can be rectified by winning this game. McDummy may have caught a break against the Chiefs but he can truly flex in this one by game planning against another top 5 NFL offense and QB right now. Bills truly starting to feel like one of those grimy teams that could make a deep run in the playoffs if they get there. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills will overpower this team with pure emotion. It's all happening! Defensive Splits for the Cowboys: Offensive Splits for the Cowboys: Cowboys average a full yard per play less on the road and Dak has an 11% lower completion percentage, his QB Rating is 31 points lower and he has thrown 8 TDs with 4 INTs versus 20 TDs and 3 INTs at home. Defensively, they allow 8% higher completion percentage, 0.5 YPC more on the ground, and have allowed 10 passing TDs with only 4 INTs versus 7 passing TDs with 9 INTs at home along with a 23+ point higher QB Rating allowed. Not surprisingly Dallas Dallas' Point Differential is +171 at home and +17 on the road and average over 18 PPG less on the road. Dallas is not a great road team, the Bills can win this game and it may not be as difficult as we think.

Yes, it’d be super helpful to win this one but I actually think the Chiefs game and the three after Dallas are way more important (at least seeing now how other things have happened). It’s quite possible that regardless of how the Bills do on Sunday, they’ll be playing for the Division title in Miami. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was more to it about situations of being behind the sticks but that was the gist. Gabe - every game is different sometimes players just don't get involved. Sometimes it's just protection can't get him the ball or the coverage. Love to get him more involved. Knox - gives us another weapon to be more versatile. Good to be able to have him in there and go 12 or 21 personnel and be more versatile Last drive - with 5 minutes just trying to get your best plays and trying to score. RPO was given up to Josh because they blitz it. bubble play worked for us a few times but maybe in hindsight we should just call it run. On second down they felt that KC wouldn't use timeouts until after two minutes and felt it better to be aggressive and give Josh two shots at it instead of just one. Didn't want to settle for a field goal, wanted the TD. Plays just didn't work out. That was only roughly half of the interview but I can't transcribe everything lol. There was something about getting Diggs involved too but I dont remember what was said. He is correct, in hindsight, should call a run. 1st down 2:12 left at the 22. Get 2-4 yards, clock stops at 2 minutes. You have 2 plays to get 6-8 yards for a first, and you can then run the clock down to the 3 seconds needed for a FG, even with KC's 2 TOs. Even if you don't get the first down, you make KC blow their TOs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillMafia716ix Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 It’s going to be a good game. Despite their record I believe the Bills are still one of best teams in the league. They proved it when they went into Philly and almost beat the Eagles and they proved going into KC and beating Mahomes in Arrowhead.

Georgia Bill Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Cowboys fans having a raging debate about Josh Allen, some saying he's the best QB they'll see in the regular season and the Boys better be ready, and others saying he's in the top 10 but a turnover machine so they're not worried at all. Most though, acknowledge that the Bills are dangerous right now, with their backs to the wall - and that the Cowboys have not played their best football on the road. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtw3 Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Took a few minutes to browse some of the cowboys forums. They are some of the most uninformed, just regurgitating the same old national narrative about our Bills, fans I have seen all year. "Josh can only beat us with his legs" "He is inaccurate" "Our defense cannot pressure without blitzing" "We have no running game" "We are a mid-team in the AFC" "Get a lead early and we will crumble" You can just sense that they only watch Skip Bayless and their own team and have no real knowledge of the rest of the NFL outside of Dallas. Reality wears #17 and he's about to slap them in the face. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When have the Bills last won an easy game? Or when is the last Bills win that hasn't been difficult? Been a long long time. The Cowboys are rolling and a very good team.

I had to look this up but if this happened week 18 would be for the division. The next tie breaker after head to head and division record (both would be 3-3) is record vs common opponents. The 2 uncommon opponents for them are titans and ravens which would both be losses. The 2 uncommon for the bills are chiefs and jag which went 1-1. Therefore I believe week 18 is for the division no matter what as long as miami loses at least 1 more time than the bills over the next 3 weeks.

Gregg Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Two things that really concern me about this game. 1. How will the Bills OL hold up against the Cowboys pass rush. KC especially in the 2nd half was getting after Allen pretty good. Dallas can do the same. 2. Can the Bills secondary contain CeeDee Lamb. If they can do a good job against Lamb that will go a long way containing the Cowboys offense. I do expect a relatively high scoring game. Definitely higher than 20-17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
