The London game, specifically the let down of the Defense after the Bils had rallied back to take the lead, then allowing Jacksonville to march down the field and score the winning TD. It was really the clincher in the evidence that this defense was bad, and just didn't have it. If the Bills hang on to win that game, they would still be in the playoff hunt today. And, it would have been a huge momentum changer for the season. Yes, until they out him on the ring of honor, or something, the curse will continue.

Yes! What is so frustrating is how the Coach refused to adjust to the talent and players he had. If your scheme is this complicated, then maybe it's really not that good. And if you check the stats, it really wasn't that good in his last few years in NY either—gives up a lot of points. And in this case, past performance is indicative of future results. He has proven he can't adjust, why would it change now. Time to move on from Rex and his inept coach philosophy/style and coaching staff.

Yeah, that is exactly what this franchise needs. As bad as it hurts, time to admit the Rex hire was a bad hire and move on.

It's just you . . . the coaches and scheme have made him, and all his defensive teammates, look awful. Remember last year, we was a serious candidate for rookie of the year.

Really? Isn't it the Defensive coaches that should be shown the door?

Creative call on that 3rd down! Do they think they Redskins are that stupid?

A reason to watch and hope. Thank You! Being sensible or logical is not a part of the definition of a "fan." GO BILLS !!!!!

Of course, we as fans have a propensity to be overly optimistic. If you check the national media, very, very few had the Bills making the play-offs - most had us at or around 8-8. Which it looks like we will be. . . . If we feel bad, we have only ourselves to blame. What is so hard is how we got there, with a reasonably successful offense, and a terrible defense and special teams; the two units where there were no major personnel change, and yet both digressed significantly. That's what hurts.

Yuuuup! What hurts so bad is that if the Defense was just above average, we would be in the play-off hunt. How could it drop off this far. ANSWER: Poor coaching.

Cruel women she is.

Petting is right—just not NFL politically correct. Wilson is not consistent enough at this point. He is very good, but I would agree, not at the level of the other four.

No, its the curse of Doug Flutie. That was decided here a long time ago.

Yup, just another in a long string of poor decisions. Add to that, the poor clock management by the coaching staff at the end of the first half. When the Bills received the ball with about 3 minutes to go, they had every opportunity to run the clock down to the end, or at the least, run the clock down to very little time left. But, as is so typical and consistent with the general stupidity ethos of this team this year, they do everything they can to not even get points, and to leave a good deal of time to the Eagles, and the result being = 3 points. How much did we lose by?

As well he should …. McCoy is McCoy good folks of TBD. I still remember all the defending of him when he made the "Kelley is a racist" comments. Oh, no big deal. But yes it is, it speaks to his character. And in the heat of the battle, when the pressure is on, when you are needed the most, it is your true character that will guide the outcome. Shady is, well, shady. Like it or not, we'll have to live with it, he's ours now. BUT PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, TBD POSTERS, DON'T TRY TO JUSTIFY IT JUST BECAUSE HE IS ONE OF OURS.

Hard to disagree in hind site. Would love to have seen what a Jackson and Schwartz combo could have been …. but of course, that is hind site.

"Because that is the scheme I want to play," said the Defensive Genius of a Head Coach. Don't you know he is smarter than everyone else? Just look at the results.

Your Heading said it all, and that is what is so devastating to us, the fans. We don't want to accept that this is a mediocre team—but the record and inconsistent play says nothing but that. But probably the most disheartening thing is how we got to here. Going into the season if you'd have said "the offense is going to be …." (and then fill in the current sats), we'd have been giddy with excitement. With our Defense, that is all we need to get at least 10 wins, probably more. Truth is, with our Defense (and throw in the huge step back for the Special Teams play and a wildly undisciplined team over-all) and the way it has performed, we would need to be a top 5 Offense to be winning. And that is what is so disheartening. We have made real progress on one side of the ball (I know, not enough, but back to my original point, enough to win with the D and STs play we had last year), and then the two strong units are in fireball to the bottom of the league. And that is what just kills our misplaced emotions.

just frustrating, even on that last play it looked like he could run for a first down, and regardless, Woods wasn't open.

what happened to running the ball in the 2nd Half ??????

Love the end, great touch

Wow, watching that kick again, it still hurts.

Wow, when you put it this way, the list is almost shocking. It does help put things in perspective, and helps me appreciate even more the work TT has done so far. We're all praying (or something) it continues.

Yeah, it is curious, but I will trust that the coaches know better than me. I think the bigger mystery is Mills versus Henderson? It sure seems that Mills was more productive, but it was one game. I've read mixed reports on who would be starting, any word today?

yup!
