This team feels different going into the playoffs than previous seasons. Yeah the wins lately haven’t been pretty, but just

win, and that’s what we are doing, finding ways to win even when things aren’t working. Something the team has struggled with in the past. Also, after listening to Mcdermotts sideline interview after the game and actually seeing the emotion from him, just makes me feel like something’s different now. 

I like how the Bills have been able to come out in the 2nd half with an answer to what the opposition tried to do in the 1st half. The Joe Brady O is more balanced pass and run and more sustainable then both Dorsey or Daboll IMO. It compliments what McD tries to do on the Defensive side of the ball IMO.  The comparison of John Elway to Josh Allen show many similarities. In the right Offense it will not surprise me to see Josh Allen have the same results/ Championships when all is said and done.  

 

Yes, this teams been through hell and back together and it does feel different...

Rare show of emotion from him is cool to see.  Our defense and his play calling has been epic since we learned of his allegiance to Al Qaeda during the bye week.

We didn't hear a lot about the glory of God when the "hate piece" was making the rounds, McDermott fired his OC, and the team was playing like crap, did we?

Always seems to work like that with McDermott's ilk.

 

 

I don't know how much glory there is in playing like crap tbh

[LabattBlue]

Will never know(and glad it didn’t come to this), but I had a gut feeling on Miami’s last possession that super nerd McDaniel would have gone for two and the win had Miami been able to score a TD.

I have never wavered once from McD... Being a stable long-term coaches a lot more than x's and o's.. which he has

 

It's about a steady figure, who can fight the storm of an NFL grind.. never too high never too low... Treat his guys like professionals not boys... Yet can push them hard enough

 

Sean gets so much flack but has been so good for this organization

 

Thank you Sean Western New York Will always Love You

It's hard not to cheer for McD. His character is phenomenal. I'm really happy for the way the Bills finished after being 6-6. Things looked pretty bad. McD has to get credit for rallying the team. His defense has absolutely got it done down the stretch. 

 

I say this with me being a pound the drum guy for a coaching change. I still have ambivalent feelings about that.

 

It's playoff time and the Bills have to produce under McD. I hope like hell they do. 

[JerseyBills]

Was banned for a cpl days. Our boys did it!!!!!! 

Love yall. 

What a journey this season was, 6-6. on a bye , hit piece on our coach and as I said then, this team been here before, their leadership is tremendous,  they'll do it and they did it against huge odds. 

 

4 straight division titles. 

The SB documentary is going to be epic! Go Bills ✌️❤️

Wasn't the prettiest win but that seems to be the theme this year and like the players always say, a w is a w. They all count the same and now we're the 2 seed and division champs. Who would've thought we'd be here at 6-6. Let's make some noise in the playoffs now.

McDermott has gone through the wringer this year. You can hear it in his voice. This win meant everything to him.

Ride that message right to lifting the Lombardi, “Resilient”. Keep getting up and fighting, that’s what gives you a chance and wins championships. They did it last night and all year. 
Go Bills!! 

[wjag]

1.  I don’t think Buffalo got within sniffing distance of a sack, but shut them out in the second half.  
2. That quarter consuming drive in the 3rd that resulted in zero points was a microcosm of this season.  
3.  Dolphins hit gold with Achane.  
4. Lenny looks slow.  
5. Tale of 2 reviews.  The extended review of Kincaid’s 2 yard reception and the failed review of Allen’s hand going out of bounds were head scratching.  
6. Mr Kincaid, Mr Diggs and Mr Shakir all with clutch performances. 
7. The score was close, the final stats show our Bills dominated that game. 
8. Josh Allen is a dude. 
9. Thank you Tennessee.  That took enormous stress off of that game.  
10.  Mr Cooks.  You just gotsa catch that pass.

That dude has warrants. Guaranteed. 

acceptance is the main part of the recovery.  He admitted Josh is Miami's Daddy and owns them.  Accept that fins fan.  That will aid in your recovery as a loser football fan

[EmotionallyUnstable]

Injuries to watch this week:

 

Dawkins - left hand laceration? Wrap him up, LFG…should be good to go.

 

Davis - Did not look good. Street clothes after a non-contact knee Injury? I won’t hold my breath waiting for him this week

 

Douglas - Hopeful as he remained in gear and comments after the game. Bruised knee? 
 

Dodson - shoulder and haven’t seen or heard anything else?

 

Rough night for Bills players with last names ending in D…just glad 14 stayed off the list!

Davis looked like a clown out there before he got hurt.

Go back and look at the block on the one Shakir reception.  If Davis is out he’ll be missed in the run game and in downfield blocking.

We sure got the complete Josh Allen experience last night. Makes you want to bench him and nominate home to the pro bowl all in the same game.

 

I think McDermott can relate to the Reverend mother. 😀

What an unbelievable end to the season to grab the 2 seed up from 11th just five weeks ago.   With everything that happened this year, week 1 vs the Jets, Patriots loss, Denver.....even if you flip 2 or three of those to wins, the Bills are..........the 2 seed.     In the end, with that win last night, it did not matter.  Sure you want the one seed but with how the season went, the 2 was absolute max you could have achieved.

People are still claiming Josh had a “tough game”

 

He had 360 yards passing. Some of you have a tough time with patience and knowing who your QB is.

I know who he is. The defense won this game. He had a very tough first half. Most defenses crumble in a situation like this, against a high scoring offense. He gave Miami a few opportunities that the defense snuffed out. Glad we won, but it’s amazing how much he’s babied. Anyone else makes a mistake, he’s toast here(Cook as an example). Everyone knows our qb. Nationality called the “Josh experience “ for a reason. 
Great job defense!!! You bailed him out. Again.

Sherfield is actually a really good blocker though.

Defense was very good. Allen’s turnovers kept Miami in the game, but Allen and the Bills offense dominated the game. Dolphins offense couldn’t get the ball.

Dude all turnovers came deep in Miami s zone and every drive they moved the ball. It’s not like the D was put in a bad situation. The turnovers sucked but come on. That and the D was hardly on the field all game.

I don’t disagree on the offense MOVING the ball. The defense was better than good. They held Miami scoreless in the 2nd half. That defense dominated that second half. Considering the first half turnovers, I’ll say they dominated the whole game.

Allen has been balling out when using PA all season.  The problem?  We don't use enough of it.  It needs to be a much bigger part of the offense.

I have to look back for the exact play but I remember going PA to a intermediate pass to Kincaid and realizing "oh hey, it's everything I've been pounding the table for and it works"

D got cut up by the run in the first half and played it a lot better in the second

Defense dominated as well. I’m just saying Miami offense didn’t have the ball much. Great team effort. Bills defense making them punt and the Bills offense sustaining drives.

I love seeing that for a lot of reasons:

• That he isn't seriously hurt.
• That his teammates had faith in each other to handle it and let them know they have his back.
• That it actually worked.

[entropyrules]

Huge bias on my part but I thought the failure to call that obvious pass interference on Miami when the Bills were about to score changed the nature of the whole game. That was a pass interference and not just a ticky-tack contact??

The first interception resulted in the ball ending up at something like the Miami 8. The second resulted in a touchback. The fumble - which was more down to Torrence/lack of support from Morse - saw the ball recovered at the Fins 27. As infuriating as they were, none of the turnovers left the defense in a near impossible situation to recover. Indeed, the worst position was the turnover on downs in the fourth (Miami 37).
