This is a road I am generally pretty quick to go down, but at this point this is basically playoff football for this team so I’ll take the wins where and how I can get them. 
 

That said, unsure if it was Brady or Allen, but the game was played deep and outside. I was really frustrated we didn’t get Cook, Kincade, and Shakir going underneath. Chargers were asking for it. 
 

A couple key catches from Diggs and Davis kept this one alive. 
 

Go Bills baby!

Davis along with Oliver really came to play yesterday.  Everyone else?

How was it luck?  You criticized the defense yet fail to acknowledge the work they put in to keep the game manageable and also the offense that supposedly sucked still scored more points than they did.  How was it luck?  Was it the sacks that were lucky? Was it the stops on 3rd and 4th down that were lucky?  Was it luck that we scored TDs instead of FGs? What was lucky?

Totally agreed. I was focusing on the offensive side of the ball. That fingertip catch from Diggs kept that drive alive. 
 

I think they were looking to put up some Madden numbers on the outside with Davis and Diggs in a statistical slump and Cook going off.  The Chargers defense got it right, the Bills offense got it wrong yesterday.

The reality is we were lucky yesterday.  Josh was bad Josh until the last drive.  Cook had a pivotal fumble.  The defense let a guy with no experience in the league almost win the game for the Bolts.  The only guy that played really well was Oliver.  
 

Just admit they sucked yesterday and got lucky.  They won’t be that bad every game; I suspect they’ll squish the Fish like Josh always does.  But they sucked yesterday and have too many times this year against inferior competition and that’s why they’re in the position they’re in.

I'll take a sloppy win over a loss any day of the week. one game closer.

 

crying the blues and complaining about a win or how they won, is, well, lame as *****.

Right? I mean I don’t think anyone is calling last night’s game an instant classic. 
 

We won despite three turnovers. It was ugly. And for once, it turned out in our favor.

I was telling everyone I could this game would be close.  I wish I could have profited off it.  New Charger coach, them getting blown out vs Raiders, short week/long travel for Bills and flu going around team

Ok cool, I’ll play along-if Josh doesn’t inexplicably throw 3 int against the jets, if the defense stops Mac Jones on the last drive, if the Bills don’t have 12 men on the field against Denver, if the Bills aren’t part of an experiment against Jacksonville that Goodell admitted was a bad idea, if Elliot doesn’t make a 60 yarder in that rain and wind, those are all Bills wins.

 

so take the Toney one if that makes you feel better

No you missed my point. I agree with the op. It’s great we won last night but it does not inspire much hope for the future. Yes they pulled that win out, but this team is too up and down. One week we look like the best team ever the next will we struggle to beat a team with a head coach who has never even been a coordinator! I’m happy they won but which team will show up in the playoffs if they get there? I knew if they won people would act like all is good in paradise.

Wait... is he mad we didn't run the football more?  We ran the football 30 times with only 21 passes (most of those which were complete.)  3.5 yards per carry vs 11.1 yards per pass.

You may note that many of these same fans complain after other blowout wins by criticizing timeout management or an Allen pick or something else. 
 

What they’re really saying is that every game must be a perfect blowout like the Cowboys game. Completely out of line with the reality of football, even for dynasty teams of the past. 
 

This is going to be a little deep but they are miserable because they project the same thought process on themselves. They must be perfect or THEY are not good enough. And since they’re clearly not perfect, that is why they are so miserable. They then project it on the team. And we look at them and wonder what the hell is wrong with them.

This is the reality for every team in the league. Journey to other fan forums and they are all the same. One week the team is lucky, the next they are winning it all, the next fire everyone. It’s the same everywhere.

If memory serves me correctly, early in the game the defense forced the Bolts to punt from their 11-yard line twice, and their 20-yard line once, it was the offence that couldn't do anything with those "gifts", as a matter of fact one of those punts resulted in a turnover and gimme Bolts points.

 

But I DO agree the Bills were lucky to come away with a win.

Yeah. I get it. You butted into a conversation you didn’t belong in. Now all the sudden you want to be a part of it. It’s ok guy. One of these days you’ll be able to sit at the big table with the adults.
