11/16/25 GAMEDAY Bills vs Buccaneers 1st Half Game Thread

[Nitro]

Only can do so much as a coach.  The players on defense are not getting it done.  Bosa has shown he is clueless on running plays.  Bernard is lost at LB.  No confidence in the zone they are calling.  The Bucs WRs are running to the same spot and are wide open.  Making a struggling offense look great.

[Iverwig]

This team can’t win a championship with this staff. 1st round exit in the playoffs incoming. 

[Irish Dave]

Over the hill players coached by idiots

[VW82]

This is a frustrating watch. Nothing's changed.

[Nelius]

I think Baker had supplanted Burrow as the actual third best QB in the league.

We get a high draft pick? The straws are being grasped 

Maybe that’s why Beane didn’t want to give up the 2026 1st for Waddle because he thought it could potentially be a relatively high pick.

Can the offense respond?

[Buffalo Ballin]

We will keep criticizing McDermott. His butt is on the hot seat. He should have been fired 2 years ago. His career here has been on borrowed time.

 

Time is up after the season is done.

 

Can never stop the run with McD here.

[Pete]

The PatsD have not had a running back go over 50 yards this season.

 

The Bills have given up 6 rushing TDs over 30 yards this season.  Its embarrassing

 

[OldTimer1960]

I’m rooting for them, but this is not a team that is a serious championship contender- maybe not even a playoff team.

[H2o]

But Josh is the problem with this team, right?

[BananaB]

3rd and long is 3rd and easy against Buffalo. 
 

Poyer left in the dust on the last 3 big running plays against us. Twice last week and once today

We have to get rid of that zone. It only works when you have a great pass rush. We don’t have a great pass rush, so once 2 seconds pass, somebody is always open 12-20 yards in the soft spots…

[KOKBILLS]

When you make it that easy for a 14 yard pitch and catch on 3rd down what the hell does McD expect? They're not even playing the down markers... They're just dropping... It's useless...

Bernard might the worst starting LB in in NFL vs the run.

It's like a little assistant coach playing LB. 

[wppete]

This team doesn’t have it. Really embarrassing to see. 

[SoonerBillsFan]

Bucs might run for 300 yards today

[ControllerOfPlanetX]

McD has seen enough…time to shorten the game, run the play clock down and run every down…despite the fact we have J.A.

 

[Chaos]

Punchers win heavyweight titles. Counter Punchers go aspire to be on the list of "best counter punchers in history"

[BuffaloBill]

Bucs 111 rush yards so far in 1st half
