True. The curse of this team is that Allen will win (and has won) enough games to make McDermott unfireable. It will have to be worse before it gets better, although I can't think of anything worse than losing to Mahomes a fifth time in the playoffs. 

Any team can beat us in the playoffs.

for being huge fan im coming around to putting a lot of  this on beane.   

Both have equal blame, injuries have been brutal..

[Matt_In_NH]

Im not a fire people at halftime guy but what has Babich accomplished as a DC?  He took over a defense that was historically good (in the reg season) and they are now at the bottom of the league.  People like his youthful energy but not a lot of good happens.  Turnovers I guess....

it's gotten worse every year...     

You’re talking about levels of bad. They’ve all been bad.

Put Keon in the slot and negate this blitz. Get Josh cooking

He rarely faces this much pressure and that’s showing 

I’m not buying it. Allen’s had some pretty crappy lines in the past. He’s always able to get it done by creating with his legs. Something’s off tonight. I hope Brady tells Allen to rip off some big runs if they are there. His accuracy is totally shot 

[KOKBILLS]

This coaching staff thinks they can just do their thing and they can wear down their opponents. I really believe they think they can outwill other NFL teams. Throw in a little something different every week, then basically just bread and butter them to death...

That call on the last 3rd down to Coleman... I mean... It's not really a play... It's a 50/50 ball at best... Run a freaking play... I'm tired of hearing about how we need these blazing WR's... Teams get players open all the time by calling good plays and having good coaching... We are just living in the past... We are BEHIND... And it is massively apparent that every team we go up against...except the Jets... has a plan on how to attack us and at the very least slow us down... Every offense that plays us moves the ball and gets people open... that seems easy...

We are falling behind the coaching curve and we have not Drafted well... Josh can do a lot... But eventually even he can't overcome all this...

wow it really is Atlanta’s Super Bowl

We have the ability to score fast, and come back fast.  

 

I hate that we're in this position again, but we're probably one of the best comeback teams out there.

 

I would though be patient. Need to get into a better rhythm on O.

He’s also doing himself no favors either rushing throws and being largely inaccurate minus the TD drive. 

That was one thing about Kelly...back in the days it was ok to kill the qb.   he would stay in the pocket with total focus untill the last second.

he could get nailed play after play and keep his focus.

[UKBillFan]

I'm going to say this tentatively but didn't Josh ask them to draft Coleman?

[sven233]

Same thing happened last season.  We played a few good games coming out of the gate and then teams had film on what Brady was doing.  We started playing good defenses and we couldn't move the ball.  We were terrible at the WR position last season and we are just as bad this season.  Until we start putting a premium on the position, we will be in this same situation year after year.

[BuffaloBillyG]

Looking like it's gonna be a looooong 2 weeks both at One Bills Drive and Two Bills Drive.

 

Hopefully, we do a lot of self scouting and realize a few things. Such a Babich should never call a defense again. Such a weird NEED to be very active in the trade market. And maybe learn where to line up so you aren't Offside.

We need 7 here

@GunnerBill - can't reply in the original thread so doing it here. It's the knee hitting the ball. He grabs it, starts pulling it up, hits the knee and starts moving, then hits the turf. If not for the ball being moved, i'd agree. But a moving ball doesn't denote control.

 

 

 

I think his hand is under it. I still think that's a catch.

 

What I will say is it wasn't overturnable. It wasn't clear. But I think he caught it.

Coleman is a wasted draft pick

There is a lot of wasted draft picks on this roster. This team has been spoiled with Josh Allen as Superman. 

[NoelBillsFan]

Our whole defensive line stinks.  

[stevewin]

Still salty that ball never touched the ground 

[stlbills13]

Codrington is an easy cut

Them passing on Ladd still pisses me off. It’s not that hard. 

Ladd had 100 yards and 1 TD last game
