11/20/2025 Bills @ Texans post game thread

[Chicken Boo]

You have to build this team to Allen's strengths.

 

He needs a true #1.  Someone he can feed the ball.

[Kelly to Allen]

I remember Kelly getting absolutely destroyed vs the Steelers in 94. Allen took a lot of hits tonight and it was brutal....

 

Idk maybe this team is done until a reload next year

He's been the best LT in the league this year, until tonight

I dont agree, he has given up 4-5 sacks and has like 7 penalties.  Both are enough for an entire season for an average OT.

Didn't almost all of those sacks come from the middle of the tackle box? He can't throw it away. 

There were I'd say at least 3 where he was out of the pocket and had the chance to throw it away but didn't.

Props to Brown for playing through a mountain of pain. Respect that. 

I guess. Clear unable to play to a suitable level. Find some humility and know when it’s time to step aside.

8 sacks. 8 sacks. 8 sacks. Do I need to say it again? 8 sacks!

Not just 8 sacks. 70 yards lost on the 8 sacks!  That’s wild!

Knox was open BECAUSE of the offensive pass interference.

If Josh throws to Knox, then does a backflip and runs down the field to block for Knox who goes in for a game winning TD, the play would still not count.

[MPL]

Guys. Come on. Even if Josh threw it to Knox it was still going to be an offensive pass interference penalty, which would have turned 4th and 6 into 4th and 16 and most likely resulted in the 9th sack of the game. To quote Josh Allen: "what the f&$* are we doing?"

That’s laughable.. he’s not the best OT on his own team 

One of the best writers and ball knowers out there said it in Bill Barnwell

[philholbroo]

maybe mcdermott so worried about chiefs that they wanted to lose this game.

I can’t wait to hear McDermotts presser after the game. Alot if nonsense coming out of his mouth. 

Gap integrity baby. That's all we need to know.

If winning only 2 more games this year means mcbeane are gone next year, then that may not be a bad thing.

as painful as the rest of the year would be, I would sign for that right now

[Roundybout]

Do you trust Pegula to do the right thing with the next coaching/GM hire? 

 

 

 

 

I do not. Not in a snowball's chance. 

 

 

 

And that is why I dread the future. 

[gonzo1105]

He's had a bad stretch of games for sure and tonight wasn't good. It kind of irritated me that he was laughing and smiling after the game with a Texans player especially when he had a huge penalty that put the Bills in a much tougher situation.  I get it its a job for them compared to us but still I just shake my head seeing that.

It was offensive pass interference on Gabe Davis……it was a lost play…..not sure why you’re struggling with this?

I know....wasnt exactly my point.    Maybe..had he not been targeting Davis... he wouldnt have got the opi call

[Kelly to Allen]

The tackle play was atrocious. But they called the game that played into the strengths of the Texans 

 

It was a disaster 

 

I'm honestly shocked they had a chance at the end

It’s a pretty nice silver lining for a terrible game lol

The O Line sucked tonight, but the good thing is we don’t play the Texans defense every week.  They’re the best defense in the league.  Def kicked out butts, but there will be better days.

Mcdermott's defense let them march right down the field and score a td before the half.  That was the killer drive of the game.  

 

If they can just make them go to the locker room there we probably win the stupid game.  if they make them kick a field goal we are lining up on 4th and 1 to kick a game winning kick.

 

Mcdermott's defense is bad and beanes players to run it is bad.  

That drive simply can't happen and now the season is in a spot where they basically can't lose at pittsburgh who can replicate this defensive performance and against the bengals who we know will score in the 30's.   

 

It just has a bad vibe when you keep losing the exact same way on the road.

You can’t lose 💯 momentum after the great kick return and let a back up qb .. slay your soft ass zone.. I’m guessing he will explain the guys didn’t maintain lane integrity or perhaps the drops were too deep🤷🏻‍♂️.. just such bs.. seen this before

It's true

 

Keon helps more blocking and he could have been a guy that Josh could've thrown some jump balls when the protection wasn't there

 

This isn't even debatable. Keon was missed in this game

 

Gabe is much better at blocking than Keon. He's also better at jump balls even though that's supposed to be Keon's strength. 

 

That game doesn't have me thinking "if only we could have thrown some incompletions to Keon we would have been fine."
