McD w the interception????

Heads up alert play by the defense.

Kevin Harlan is giving me a headache already.

The Billsiest thing ever would be losing to the Pars, while the Dolphins lose to the Ravens.

Miami and Baltimore is tied.

[Pine Barrens Mafia]

Defense came to play

 

[Buddy Hix]

The energy in the stadium was killed on that return. Allen needs to lead a TD drive to get the fans back into it. It wasn’t even loud on that 3rd down.

[Philly McButterpants]

At least the D showed up today.

If im not mistaken I listened to a pod cast that said the point of those screens is drawing the lbs out and pulling dbs up to set up plays later, but ya it hasn't been working 

I don't mind doing them, and we have gotten yards with them at times, but that is not the place for it. 

[BBFL]

Harty always seems to pass up the 15/20 yard return to cut or jump step toward the coverage. Mental.

Cooks obligatory drop. 
 

not impressed with the offense this far. Feel like dumpoffs should work well today though 

 

but those quick screens in the flats are trash 

Joe stop with the flat screens. Dude they don't work.

[CircleTheWagons99]

Harty sucks. Too much juke. Just RUN

[balln]

3rd offensive possession in the first 5 minutes. They better start looking like an elite offense soon with an elite mvp like qb 

[dave mcbride]

Is there a reason bass isn’t kicking it into the EZ given what happened on the first kick? Is he losing his leg? I worry about that.

He talks in declamations. It's really weird. Sounds great on clips, but deeply tedious on every down

Bills need to run and Josh needs to move around and create.

[Process]

I've said it many times but eliminate the wr screens. Josh can't throw them. Guys can't catch them. We can't block them. 

[par73]

Much more confident in the D at this point

Our special teams have to be worse in league.  We need a new st coach. 

They have literally cost the team two losses on final plays because of miscues.

Him and Hines are gone next year. Our entire ST needs an overhaul.

Statistically they pretty much are at the bottom of the league in everything.

The Chiefs have made quite a few mental errors.

That will be such an interesting case study when all is said and done. I think the team is up in arms in concern with mahomes and Kelce being so over the top.  We saw it with Brady and the leaders of the Patriots. They pushed and pressed everyone around them. In New England those players rose to the occasion. In KC they're folding.

I never liked him from his introductory presser. Seemed like he was just delighted to be there. Like a competition winner.

[Bookie Man]

Instead of Ravens Dolphins, we get Panthers Jags.

 

Real neat. 

[Freddie's Dead]

Sal reports the Bills not showing the Miami Ravens score at the stadium.  Bush league.

[dgrochester55]

I feel like there is a new Mahomes/Reid/Kelce commercial every week.  Maybe if they focused on the game more, they wouldn't be backing into the playoffs.

What's more likely? Bass losing his leg or dumb coaching?

[Simstim]

Good hard running from Cook.

Agree. It's like hockey or soccer players shooting right at the goalie instead of the open net.

Every mistake is due to coaching, every good play is despite coaching.  Lot's of reason to be critical of coaching I agree, but this is getting old.

The most over-exposed athletes ever.

[Goin Breakdown]

I'd be happy if we could complete a pass at this point. Someone said the pats backfield was their weakness.
