If I'm not mistaken when we played Denver they were the #4 defense in the league and we ran all over them, 47 rushes for 244 yards. The Bills came out rushing in that game and stuck with it with 47 rushes to 25 passes! Singletary with 21 rushes, Gore with 15 rushes and the Bills O line played well allowing only one sack. This game it was like the Eagles game in that the Bills O line got manhandled most of the game. The Bills center, Morse stunk it up. Once the Ravens saw the Bills couldn't hit those deep passes they came after Allen blitzing over and over...meanwhile, where were the adjustments to help stop those blitzes? That Ravens pass rush could have been deterred by running more with short, quick passes. The Ravens had a top five defense and it was enabled more by the bad play calling. Like I said, find a way to make that Bills run game work from the start with Singletary who got 5.2 YPC avg, while Gore with 4 carries got a 1.5 YPC avg. Daboll did this same crap against the Browns with only 20 rushes vs 41 passes and Allen is not at the stage yet where he can carry the offense with his arm against a good defense. Different play calling and its a completely different outcome and game in my view.

I didn't see Jackson throwing 30 yard passes early in the game at all. I just watched Jared Goff overthrow a pass on SNF. It happens, so why go back to it over and over? When you have a young QB with a strong arm that you know will probably be over hyped for this game the very last thing you should do is ask him to make those deep throws at the start. Yes, he should have hit them and yes it would have changed the complexion of the entire game. He didn't and when he didn't it gave the Ravens the notion that he wasn't a threat to throw deep and thus the Ravens defense went into jailbreak mode in rushing Allen like crazy. It was a moronic way to start the game with a still very inexperienced QB. Allen might have sounded like this wasn't a big game but that wasn't the case at all. This game was the very biggest stage in Josh Allen's short career Look at his history in high school in Firebaugh California, or in college at Wyoming and he was never on that big a stage at any point, not like this game. This game he knew the pressure was on him and it showed. When the offense had success the previous three weeks with a run first offense with almost double the runs vs pass. Why do the opposite in passing more then running while putting all the pressure to win the game on the QB? I would take Ravens OC Greg Roman over Brian Daboll any day as the latter reverts to his stupid losing ways in some games. Run the damn ball and find a way to make it work and the rest will follow.

It was windy, I didn't see Lamar Jackson having his great game as usual. Did you see Jackson completing 30 yard passes downfield? Besides most QB's with a strong arm tend to overpower early throws. I can't tell you how many times I've seen QBs do this same thing...even Brady does this. My point was what worked for the offense in the last three game was to get that run game going and the QB with short quick throws to get him settled in and gaining confidence. Singletary finished the game with a 5.2 yard per carry average. How do you not run him more? Beasley and Singletary should have been targeted with shorter passes in the beginning of the game. From my view the Bills OC went away from what worked the previous three weeks.

Buffalo with 39 pass attempts vs 23 rush attempts is the opposite of what has worked with the Bills offense the last three weeks in which they ran more then they threw it, against Dallas, against Denver, against Miami. While I acknowledge that Allen missed some throws...but then his deep passing completion percentage has been one of the worst in the NFL this year. So, why ask the kid to throw deep at all. The Bills came out running and gave up on it far too soon. Is there a written law somewhere that says you MUST pass the ball on 3rd and 4? At this time of the season it looks like Gore's tank is empty and Singletary's tank is full. Motor with a 5.2 YPC avg and 17 rushes, 6 receptions wasn't utilized nearly enough to start the game. Six sacks on Allen and the Bills O line had no adjustment on those blitzes by the Ravens. The way to neutralize the opponents pass rush is to run more, wear them out so in the fourth they are gassed. This game loss is on Brian Daboll in my view. Just like against the Browns 41 pass attempts with 20 rush attempts Daboll loses sight of what the offense does best in running to set up the pass. I'm really hoping that Daboll gets hired as a HC for some team after the season is over.

Knox 61% catch percentage. Foster 33%. Sweeny 37%. Roberts 40% McKenzie is at 74.1

Hauschka... Mr money is back

took his eye off the ball

Aww knox!

Finally a good pass play call

This is exactly why I'm hoping Daboll gets a HC offer and if Lynn gets fired the Bills hire him.

I'd say more like 20 touches with at least 15 rushes. Take the ball out of Allen's hands and give give it to the RB

The Bills defense is playing at a championship level...offense not so much

This would have would have given the game an entirely different look

Should have been doing this from the start! Singletary in the flat, Beas all day

I dunno about him being a bum, but Feliciano did look better at center with Long at guard

They love it when Allen looks bad so they can feel good about disliking him to begin with

The Ravens D line is pushing the Bills line backwards...the Bills O line stinking it up! Can't hold a pass block. Can't run block. This is like the Eagles game all over again.

At least Daboll is calling quick outs now

Finally, Beasley! FIRST DOWN

I agree, and why the deep throws when Allen's deep pass has been off all season? Get Knox and Beasley into this game. This is Daboll falling on his face...

The Ravens pass rush doesn't work when you run the ball!!

THATS whats been needed!!!! Run the ball and take the pressure off the QB!

You again, with the throw first game plan! What has worked the last three wins was running the ball more and passing less. A balanced offense with the run game working so it all isn't on the QB.

Allen is still inexperienced and the game shouldn't be all on his shoulders to win it. Daboll needs to make the run game work which will settle down the QB and if you must pass, make it quick short outs, slants to help the QB gain confidence.

This is the old Daboll showing up with calling more passes and refusing to find ways to make the run game work...so the Ravens pin their ears back and go after Josh.
