Billsfan1972

We agree on something. Neither am I. Upset at how they're playing and especially on offense no where close to their potential. Doesn't mean that on a fan site I can't share my concerns.

OBJ????? Maybe you are right as they have shown week after week and the reason I started this thread.

I also mentioned SF & Philly, but you're fixated (and others) on KC, who we can agree are the Bills biggest rivals. Should I have said Cincy?

They were up 27-0, let them back in the game and when they needed to run out the clock they did & on the road. Mind you it hasn't been smooth sailing for them either, but their offense has been fine.

Don't have the time, but we all know that the last minute TD/FG where then a on side kick (Cleveland) is the only way to win is not the same as last minute defensive stop or fg (yes Det, KC & Baltimore wins vs. NYJ, Mia & Minn losses). So yes 3-3 in my book.😝

Again the back door 8 point 1 score stat (Cleveland & NYJ). BTW 8 points is two score in my book (a TD and 2 point convert😝).

What team was at home & what team was on the road? I used Denver as just an example and that KC did what they had to do against them. Maybe not the best example, but not going to apologize for it. Denver showed a lot of pride. Also when the Chiefs needed to close the game vs. a very good defense, what did they do???? They got 4 first downs and ran out the clock. What did the Bills do to close the game vs. NYJ. Took a safety, forced a fumble after a nice drive (50/50 proposition at best), 3 and out, allowed a FG, 3 and out and then stopped them. Again I'm happy the Bills are 10-3 (rather they be 13-0), just concerned about their play.

I simply pointed out a division rival, a defense as good as the Jets who have lost 8 one score games (two in OT). Mahomes I think was the first QB to throw 300 yards vs. them too. In retrospect the Detroit win was better then it looked (and still the Bills did not play well that game). We all want the Bills to win the SB. To point out they look off is a fact.

Chark 61st pick and did have one good year and also has 20 catches this year and 7 last year. St. Brown was a 4th round pick (like Davis) Williams 12th pick, but hasn't played. Been searching for it and sure it is somewhere. As said Diggs 71% completion rate means little if 15% of the balls were uncatchable. Drops though mean something as would contested/tough catches.

And agree with all of that, but doesn't take away this team has seemed "off".

We all agree the Bills are 10-3. So some of us are concerned they are not looking as dominant as expected and it has been a long time since they had a great game. Is that really a reason to be so condescending? Denver has one of the best D's in football (maybe better then the Jets). They have lost 8 one score games. They were at home and yes their Offense, which is good on paper played well. BTW the Jets did beat Denver and Wilson did not play.

But but but...... Your eyeballs & mine are wrong.🤣 Again I'm not talking drops in this thread, it is the tough catch or winning that one on one battle. The Brown pass and the Knox one were two perfect examples where in each case the Bill had both hands on the ball before the NYJ defender and then couldn't maintain possession. There were others too yesterday and then there were the drops too.

I think we can all agree (except for the most ardent one's wearing rose coloured glasses) that the Bills have been no where close to their pre-season hype (and play through the KC game) since the bye. The offense has been off, bad in the redzone and Allen's only 300 yard game was vs. Minny (and that was only after blowing it) and then throwing for 69 yards the final two drives (to tie and then the terrible int). But I still think they'll turn it on. BTW I said the same thing after 7-6 last year.😉 Inigo, start a thread like this & expect childish responses and people pointing to 10-3 (which was the whole point of the thread😂).

You tell me? A bunch of no names, playing in a dome and Goff throwing for 300+ a game. They seem to be making those catches though.

We had maybe two good runs on first down and the rest resulted in second & 9. Tired hearing this. How about better blocking schemes, play calling and making catches and holding on to the ball when thrown to you?

Always see the positives. The Bills are 10-3 but no where near the team many predicted the start of the season. They are winning (so are Baltimore without Lamar) but a team so highly touted shouldn't be tooth and nail week in week out. Anyone not concerned at their play since the second half of the GB game is wearing rose coloured glasses. Already can see the threads at the end of the season. Bills win the SB (which we all want), and it will be "See I told you so" Lose and can only imagine the takes.

Omg the excuses. He had both hands on it before the NYJ player broke it up. It was not contested or simultaneous, he had the catch and didn't come down with it. His job is to hold on to it. It is the point of the thread. The Bills don't seem to make those catches as often as other players.

And the Broncos Defense has been dominating and were at home and Mahomes & KC put up 34 points. Wilson had his best game of the season and at home. The Broncos have lost 8 one score games, they're snake bit. The Bills struggled mightily at home in a revenge game against another scrub QB. The Bills are 10-3. I'm happy with the record, not how they're winning games.

They don't need to be playing the Bills, but it is tough to watch opponents do it against them. Today was just terrible.

This team was the pre-season SB favourites. After two weeks, 17-0 seemed doable as the Bills punter was the loneliest player in football. A bad loss to Miami, but then even though they played bad, when push came to shove they beat Baltimore and then prior to the bye, really were the better team vs. KC. Since the bye and halftime vs. GB they've sputtered. Take a look at SF & Philly this week. KC took care of business on the road and Cincy controlled Cleveland. What did the Bills do? 5 straight punts vs. NYJ and then when they could have closed out the game looked lost. 10-3 and still in the drivers seat, but no one is excited right now, which may not be a terrible thing. How many times have us fans said "Next week"? Plenty here are very good at that!!!!!😉

We've made very few this year. None today.

"I love Buffalo for the December/January weather" Said no one.....

Both plays the ball was in both hands prior to the defenders. Both times they did not secure it. Neither was a 50/50 play, they didn't hold on to it. See my thread on this I put up yesterday. Prescient.

how about just making a contested catch. It was in both his hands (just like Brown) and neither made the play. Not every pass is perfect and sometimes the receiver needs to make a play.

Anyone watch Detroit & Minny. Damn I hate 700+ passing.....
