I believe there is a good chance you were in the majority during the first half..my only hope is the Bills coaches are doing a "rope-a-dope" to fool everyone when they get to the playoffs.

I was very skeptical they could come back after being down 24-7 but it is Allen-too bad their D can't show up for the first half

yes looking back that really hurt..plus passing on K. Mack

Tough one to call...no matter what it will be close....The Bills' D is still a crapshoot as you never know which D (the 1st half or 2nd half) D will show up. I think the officials, unfortunately, will do what they always do when anyone plays the Pats or the Chiefs - gift phantom penalties against the Bills and no calls on the opposing teams O line holding. hate to pre-complain about the officiating but after watching the Sabres get hosed the last 4 games its just impossible to shake the notion there is a bias against Buffalo among officials in general. Bandwagon Fans Team 27 Bills 22..the last drive by Allen will get stalled by a dubious offensive pass interference call after Allen connects on a wonderful pass to Kincaid. This is one time I really, really want to be wrong.

I think I'll buy a lottery ticket tonight-Buffalo's D actually stopped them on a third and long

almost as bad as Pitts D...need a total retool

bad conditions bad D..oh well

kind of a morbid "win-win" situation for the Bills. If they win, they are almost a virtual lock to make the playoffs, If they lose there is a good chance they don't make it to the playoffs which will force a reassessment of the makeup of this team, the coaching and the general management (aka Beane); could be what they really need rather than surrounding Allen with less than B capable players. close one but the Bengals get a two-score lead in the first half and simply run the Bills D to death in the second half. Pussycats 27 Bills 23

that play wasn't going anywhere

The best outcome for the future of this team may be to miss the playoffs. They simply don't have the D or O to make a 4-5 game run. That MAY force them to make some drastic changes beginning with dumping all the old/injured players. Yes I know with the cap issues not easy to be done but maybe it will take two instead of one year to get rid the cap headache

Neither team belongs in the playoffs

Close game - Allen is not the same Allen as the last several years and the O play calling really sucks. The Steelers are going to get lots of yards on the ground and control the tempo of the game. Still the Steelers are as banged up as the Bills, and even with Allen at 75% I think the Bills eek this out 24 -21.

Two-legged with no feathers?

I'm not totally disagree with your take - it is one opton. But wonder if doing the opposite may end up with a longer-term reward. Get a real #1 WR in the draft (of course that's just a matter where they pick and bitt of luck) and get two more O lineman to beef up the O-lne. I think Dawkns is on a down hill trajectory and protecting Allen is the priority for this team. yes, they still won't be able to stop anyone but maybe they can simply outscore them. Plus, Beane and his team are simply not very good at scouting and picking D linemen. Of course maybe the Bills could trade the next three first round Picks for Myles Garret.

Good - I think playing at 1300 is much better for the Bills plus it doesn't interfere with an early dinner
