If I'm Josh, I'm keeping a close eye on Hailee. JK. Dude you can give up 600 yd... Technically... It matters how many you give up point wise.. You could give up 575 yards if the other team only scores 24 points at the end of the day... Realistically the only thing that matters is points against ... nd scoring more than that Obviously your right u want better but that was Philip Rivers last oorah! A borderline HoF QB who was putting everything on the line ... And their offense scored 28 points per game in the regular season... Buffalo Bills held them to less despite the yards Quote
PayDaBill$ Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago (edited) They tried to bolster the defense but a few bad paydays, bad breaks, FA and draft fell flat. Apparently Beane’s not all that! Edited 3 hours ago by PayDaBill$ Quote
Whitey13 Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago I'm trying to find one that ended the 2024 regular season but this was the one midway through last year that listed Lamar as the most betrayed QB. It's an interesting way to look at the stats but if people want to use it for MVP discussions etc then have to understand Josh wasn't as betrayed last year as people thought and Lamar really did have a shot at MV3'ing. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5920003/2024/11/14/lamar-jackson-joe-burrow-justin-herbert/ Quote

Buffalo Bills held them to less despite the yards In 2021, when we allowed 40+ it was Carson Wentz, not Phillip Rivers. The year prior when we played Phillip Rivers in the Wild Card and almost lost, they didn't punt. They had 27 first downs and 472 yards off offense. I'm pretty sure that was the most first downs allowed in a playoff game in victory. We got some very timely stops. The point is the injury narrative is insanely over played. We have cratered in the postseason defensively like clock work regardless if we led the league in total defense or we completely sucked. We are much closer to the latter at this time. 1 Quote

That Indianapolis offense was good It would score points on a lot of teams.. The end of the day we held them to 24 in the playoff game I'm talking about... That's the only thing that matters Sean McDermott is a great football coach.. he's not taking a roster with seven all pros like harbaugh with the Ravens and under producing This is a roster with one all pro and good football players.. and McDermott can win a football game in the playoffs versus a team with the most all pros in the world Edited 2 hours ago by Buffalo716 1 Quote

Dude Patrick mahomes has been scoring 22 points per game The last 2 years If that was the bills offense everybody would be freaking out.. we scored 28-29 points per game and people lose it And no Sean McDermott is 100% a top 5-7 coach in the NFL.. there's not 8 coaches better over the last 8 years He's not good just because Josh Allen.. he would have a job in a millisecond as a head coach if we fired him Josh makes the bills much better he's not taking us from a two-win team to a 13 win team.. we went to the playoffs with tyrod Taylor Edited 2 hours ago by Buffalo716 Quote

Go look up actual HOF QBs (say, Marino or Kelly) "last oorahs" and it's telling that the Bills gave up nearly 500 yards to a QB at the very end of his career. I'm not saying McDermott's defense hasn't had its moments in the playoffs over the years (particularly the two wins against Lamar and last year's demolition of Denver), but defending the performance against the Colts is laughable. 1 Quote

I don't care how many yards they had they had 24 points I'm not talking about it anymore 24 points is not a lot of points to give up in the playoffs.. specially when it's under the team's season average Sean McDermott would have a job as a head coach instantly if the bills fired him.. he's not holding back a Super bowl champion roster with a bunch of all pros.. he's taking a solid roster and continually having them in Super bowl contention The Ravens had seven all pros last year and we beat them in the playoffs with one all pro.. that takes coaching .. they were a better team... I don't care what anybody says you're not lucking into beating a team that has severely more skill just because Josh Allen.. because as we've seen this year Josh needs to trust players around him Or it doesn't look good So no beating seven All pro Ravens shows McDermott is far from a bum.. because a bum coach would get steamrolled by a team with seven all pros We literally didn't even have 300 yards of offense but won the game... Even in the regular season week 1 versus the Ravens.. harbaugh got tight as the game went along McDermott stayed loose and the bills finished much much stronger... The Ravens got weak down the stretch the bills got stronger Edited 1 hour ago by Buffalo716 Quote

Mikie2times Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago 4 minutes ago, Big Turk said: I was talking about the playoff game...that's the one they put up 472 yards in I don't know what the perspective is here? The Colts were up 10-7 and failed to convert a 4th and goal at the end of the half. We go the length of the field, score a TD. Colts miss a 33 yard FG in the 3rd quarter. We take a 14 point 4th quarter lead and still need to get a stop on the final drive to win it. Colts finish with 450+ yards, 25+ first downs. We aren't going to win most of those games. We won that day. How is this an example that our defense can provide support when it matters? Quote
ChronicAndKnuckles Posted 43 minutes ago Posted 43 minutes ago 13 hours ago, SCBills said: Maturing is realizing Brandon Beane is the man we should want fired, not Sean McDermott. Beane’s past 2 drafts were pretty solid. Keon Coleman was the worst obviously, but there appears to be some real talented rookie and 2nd year players. Bishop, Walker, Hairston, Hawes, Walker, and others i’m forgetting. 1 Quote
SoTier Posted 19 minutes ago Posted 19 minutes ago 15 hours ago, BillsPride12 said: Im as frustrated as anyone with the way Beane has handled the WR room after trading Diggs but it doesn't sound like they are taking into account Offensive Line. I'm sure Joe Burrow feels betrayed by Cincinnati in that regard 😂 No NFL QB has been more betrayed than Burrow in at least the last decade. Burrow is a pocket passer with a rocket arm and a gunslinger mentality, so the Bungles have sent him out there with 2 great WRs but no OL, no running game, and a phantom defense. The 2021 and 2022 Bengals showed what could have been with just a decently respectable team around Burrow, but the Bengals don't seem to be particularly interested in building a respectable team, just a FF juggernaut.
