  1. Lately the worst outcome for the Bills is gaining 8 yards on 1st down and then thinking "No way we can't get a first down running the ball from here".....
  2. You play to your strengths plain & simple. Pass, pass, pass.... Maybe a scramble or two also. Throw in a screens and tosses to the Isaiah here & there too. If you look at the earlier game, they were thrown off there game, because of KC's running.Throw in not great weather too...
  3. And with good weather, the Bills can hang 45 on KC. KC's last 8 wins all under 6 points.
  4. To go three full seasons without a 300 yard game is unheard of in the NFL. Somehow Buffalo managed that. The only team not to do it this year were the Ravens.
  5. It was a joke, as some here seemed more obsessed that I continually opined that they couldn't throw for 300 yards (all of 2017-19). But yes I think they'll need to score on Sunday and pass for a lot of yards. What is incredible is how KC has been flirting every game with losing, yet keep pulling them out. Last 8 wins by 6 or less....
  6. I'm only worried about 300+ yards passing..... Didn't reach it in any of the those games.....😉
  7. Yes so the title of the thread was a little "overblown"..... Clickbait......😉 We have a QB & offense that I want to see playing in ideal conditions. A little wind & cooler weather okay.... Rain & high winds are an issue....
  8. Football was never meant to be played into late January. The NFL created that conundrum. And yes the more it is a passing game, the more weather affects it. Regular season, sure let weather have some effect, but don't want that for the Championship or a Superbowl.
  9. Why would anyone want to be comfortable watching a football game live???? The Bills are best when the weather is not a factor. As a Bills fan, damn right I want it in their favour Sunday.... And yep I want a return to 30+ points.... May need 40.....
  10. I see 40% and low winds, which seems fine. It's a weakness with most QB's (bad weather), however it really affects the Bills offence more at this point.
  11. Making an observation that is bared out by facts. The wind has affected Allen as it seemed so did the rain vs. Tenn & KC (yes slight injury too). I'd rather weather is not a factor (or excuse) on Sunday. Thought it was a significant factor vs. Baltimore. Looks okay Sunday.
  12. Bad games by the Bills (particularly Allen & the Offense) this year all were weather affected. 1. Tennessee - Rain & some wind 2. KC - Wind & Rain 3. NE Wind & scared to throw 4. Baltimore - High winds So yes looking at the weather will be a daily pre-occupation. https://www.wunderground.com/hourly/us/mo/kansas-city/date/2021-1-24 Only 6 more days....
  13. When you win by 14, I guess they don't care about the impactful plays or misses on your side......😉 On to the Chiefs.
  14. Agreed just pointing out things went both ways..... Wasn't a one way street, that I'm sure Raven's fans and many in the media are talking about.....
  15. Yep...... Pretty simple, but as said replaying game & I'm sure Raven's fans are using the first 4 as they lament their loss (and I've countered in 1,3 & 4) and then complaining the two times we didn't keep them pinned and it flipped field position. Oh & didn't even complain about Davis not catching a perfect pass from Allen for a TD.....😉
  16. I said of course the pick 6 was the play of the game and that was Lamar's fault. Josh's sack fumble was a great play by the Raven's and yes fortuitous that the Bills recovered. Yes the bad snaps are fumbles, but we saw what happened the week before when it happened to Pitt. The point was they recovered each one. I was just pointing out other plays that did also impact the game. Though I agree the Huntley scramble was not a big deal in the end, it could have been if on their next possession he does hit Brown on the 4th down. Just posting some thoughts.
  17. Yes completely taking away the threat (along with no flags thrown for holding or DPI). The first deep throw to Diggs was a definite hold.
  18. You throw a ball with an arc in that wind and there was almost no chance to control it. Huntley to Brown was the same thing. Also an interesting tweet was that Josh was 1-5 on his first 20+ yard throws, which was the most he missed all year. Can't tell me wind wasn't a huge factor in the passing game.
  19. Really??? More a response to those claiming Baltimore woulda/shoulda/coulda if 1, 2, 3 or 4 happened..... Obviously #2 was what ultimately decided the game, but I look at Bass missing one, the Diggs overthrow, 5 recovered fumbles and two plays at the Baltimore goal line that flipped field position that could have gone Buffalo's way. Yes I replay the game in my head.😉
  20. Just unloading, glad you read it and offered as usual your pithy response.....
  21. We always see this after a w/l and how "if only this happened" excuses. Yes I'm going to lay them out from my perspective Saturday. 1. Tucker hits the post twice - Bass misses one too early affected by the wind (later one the Bills were up 14). 2. Lamar pressured and can't complete to a wide open Brown and then 101 yard Pick 6 (too bad Lamar doesn't have Josh's arm strength). 3. Josh Fumble recovered by Bills (Ravens fumbled it 5X's! recovered them all). 4. Huntly overthrows Brown on 4th down and would have scored a TD (Allen overthrows Diggs on what would have been a TD too) 5. Buffalo plays lax defense & 2nd & 30 and allows an easy 12 yard gain & then 3rd down conversion (costs the Bills huge field position and eventually leads the the FG before HT). 6. Huntley's first play they allow a 20 yards scamper again lax on defense and then punt goes 56 yards flipping field position. So yes the pick 6 was the play of the game, but look at it closer & the Ravens actually got the better of those impactful plays.
  22. Sure..... Exactly how it appeared when he got up and almost fell flat on his face. I expect him to play but that was no pinched nerve....
  23. Yea and Davis a TD pass right in his arms.....
  24. The one issue I had was that Josh did try and throw long, which you just couldn't in that wind. The second pass of the game told you that, as Allen could have run but threw it long and no chance for a reception. As for Wright, it get's old, but at least he was tough on Lamar after the game, and was (w)right....
