Hapless Bills Fan

You guys were the better team today. Your DL looks like it’s going “Bud who?” and not missing Tuitt at all. Congrats on the win and good luck! Just beat the ***** out of the Brownies 2x, K?

Some truth to this take

That’s really my beef - we got multiple holding penalties called, while they seemed to be holding a lot. Maybe it’s ooaching and we need to be more clever about what we do

This

We had some very physical plays today which we won

Oh, we unveiled “trick plays” a-plenty. But we chose to punt on some short 4th downs I thought we could have made, and we tried to finesse a couple plays that we should have arguably tried to out-physical. Then we tried to go for it when we could have taken points. The “still trying flea flickers and half back passes” is kind of what I mean. We were trying to finesse where “man whupping man” physicality may have been called for.

Thanks @blackngolddigger. I felt like we came out flat today and you “brought it”. Your DL looks like it’s saying “Bud who?” And has depth behind Tuitt. Looked tough today, you were the better team and deserved the win (despite our bitching about a couple of ticky-tack and missed calls).

Considering we had some well-executed screen plays last season, 🤷‍♂️

It’s a fair question you ask. At this point I struggle to quantify it. I guess I felt there were some puzzling choices in play selections and choices that, together with sloppiness in execution, seems like something you see when the team/coaches are “overconfident” and don’t feel they need to pull out all the stops to win it.

OK, judging by the clip someone just posted, I would say both you and Chandler have a Bad Take on this. The root cause of the blocked punt appears to be a badly whiffed blocking assignment

It’s a disappointment, no question about that. But it may be a necessary “attitude adjustment” for the team

Jesus, that looks like a jailbreak

Exactly. I personally wanted the Bills to draft a C/G in the 2nd but they ID’d their big need as upgrading the DL/pass rush. So that’s where the draft choices went. They gambled that the OL that allowed Allen to be at the top of the league in passing was “enough” and they may have lost - we’ll see against other teams. Heyward gave us fits last year also

Um, the Steelers scored 20?

I don’t understand what you mean by “sloppy hold”

I missed that play, what exactly happened?

At the cap Feliciano re-signed for, who do you suggest they should have gotten?

This was a little bit stronger. Before it was “if I’m not comfortable with it”

Both he and Daboll said that last season, it’s nothing new

There were about 4 plays called on offense that I thought were far too cute

Um…our OL does not play their OL

I thought Wallace made some solid plays

OK, absent source, this locks.

My guess is that they don’t have full confidence in McKenzie’s shoulder. Breida is the backup KR/PR. But I think they might have activated Moss and left someone else on the shelf.

I can not disagree
