Too many injuries, not enough talent, and bad coaching.

 

I have never seen that in recipe for a Super Bowl title.

 

I'm pretty sad. I'm sure that should make lurking AFCE fans happy.  But man, it takes so much internal fortitude to keep getting up for each season, for each game.  We need a reward.  Even bad dogs get rewards sometimes.

 

As a Sabres fan, hold my beer.

How do you like that extra point miss and that bone-headed going for it with 10 minutes left against this D 

 

 

I didn’t mind them going for it…but the play calls on both 3rd and 4th down were atrocious 

[BlueRed]

They almost stole this game, if Gabe gets his second foot down this whole thing looks different

I dunno, unless you're saying it gets in his head so he just makes bad decisions. Like nobody made him shovel pass last week, nor did he need to throw that soft pass to nobody over the middle right there at the end.

It was fourth down.  Would you have preferred that he threw it out of bounds?   Who else was running open there for a first down?

[B-Man]

 

 

You can make 4th and 23,

 

But when it's third and one at their twenty you throw a swing pass right where their best defender is.

 

Brilliant.

 

Downs were more important than seconds there !!

 

Run for the first then spike it 

[Bangarang]

Brady can't return as OC next season. He just can't. 

[dpberr]

This team isn't going far.

 

I'm usually optimistic about these McDermott teams, but this is a down year.

[DapperCam]

Huge coaching blunder on 3rd and a long 1 with a timeout left and ~30 seconds left.

Just tush push guys. It's a 95% play. Tush push twice and spike it if you have to on the second one. Just get a fresh set of downs and then you have 3 or 4 plays to try for the end zone. Our coaching is trash.

[GroteStreet]

How many losses will it take for Terry to consider moving on from mcdermott amd/or beane?  If the team finishes 9-8, will he consider it?  The most talented qb in football turns 30 next year.  What the team has achieved with allen as your qb is the floor of what a team should achieve .

[Since1981]

The OL and 17 clock speed. Wowza

Please release Josh Allen so we won’t waste his talents anymore 

I am not a Josh Allen fan. I am a Buffalo Bills fan. If he goes to another team, he's just another opposing player to me.

Pass protection was the story of this game. Texans were getting almost immediate pressure with 4 all game. Defense tightened up and had a decent game in the end (curiously when some of the starters left the game). 

Bills inability to pressure the immortal Mills.. line play was a joke = loss

Yes because Sean McDermott made Dion Dawkins false start for the 8th time this year 

 

Blaming everything on Sean McDermott when this entire board admits they don't think our team is that talented is crazy 

 

The refs weren't going to let us win anyways they threw a flag on the last play lol 

 

If we caught it they're going to take it away and back us up they were not letting us win

 

Sean McDermott doesn't sign Terrell Bernard who's one of the worst middle linebackers in the NFL to a 45 million deal 

 

You think Beane really just signs Bernard to a crazy contract without communication with McDermott? 

[wppete]

There is alot of HC candidates licking their chops right now hoping Terry Pegula does the right thing and quick.

Hows the draft this year? We should be in the mid teens this year. But cant trust Beane to make the right call. 

 

Maybe if he trades the picks from the top two rounds for as many 4th to 7th round picks as possible. For some reason, those players more often than not, end up being better than McDermott and Beane's top picks.

If Praeter could make a PAT, we'd be in OT right now. 

Or if we took the points and didn't go for it at the 30 some yard line. I said it at the time, when your OL is getting manhandled, take the points.

Had some debates earlier this week about this, but I continue to believe that when you play a team like the Texans, you just have to be conservative.

Runs, quick passes. Play field position. Make FGs. Take points when you can get them. no sacks or turnovers. We play a clean game, and that is probably a 16-10 type win.

The exact opposite of how Allen wants to play football.

[Nitro]

This team has not been right all season.  Brady needs to go.  He cannot call a good game in back to back games.   Allen is on a roller coaster ride himself.  

[Bills!Win!]

Maybe your team doesn’t get better when you lose Amari Cooper and Mack Hollins and add a bunch of nobodies
