Yeah, Daboll may have been a bit of Yin to Josh’s Yang… I’d like to see Dorsey do some different things more than Josh. Just don’t see the scheme things I saw with Daboll. Anyway, they just can’t turn the football over. If they clean that up they will be in the SuperBowl.

Have to agree on the design part- last time I thought that was probably the Rams game. Daboll is a superior OC

The Ravens play an aggressive style, and that is presumed “ better” by many fans.

He’s got a flight to Thailand to catch

Of course he’ll say that .. they just dismantled him. Imagine how he will look after the ‘Boys are destroyed by San Francisco

Right… He’s not going to be seeing those looks very much the rest of the playoffs. It’s more a Miami thing

I’ve said it for years : the NFL playoffs are just better when Tom Brady ain’t in ‘em

Week to week sounds a lot like they won’t be playing this Sunday

No Issue with taking a deep shot on 1st down with a lead. It was one on one and Brown was not “ covered”. He either lost the ball in the sun or it was a miscommunication. 17-3 at midfield I’m going for the Kill shot on first down. I’ve seen enough Jauron ball to last an eternity. The Bills have Josh Allen - of course they pass the ball.

Not a fan of Cheffers, would prefer Bill Vinovich out of that group.

The commercials themselves have become unbearable , for reasons probably best discussed on PPP. They are the reason we can watch for (mostly) free, but I’d be interested what the cost would be for a fully PPV business model with minimal if any commercial breaks.

The Bills don’t have the corners that BAL does. When ( if ) White is close to 100% they’ll be improved. They’re not built to play the Ravens style and would probably get burned quite a bit if they tried.

I think Harbaugh said he wanted Huntley to go low. Anyway that was an awful play call and not just because it didn’t work. It had zero chance of working and backfired in the worst way. They needed to spread the defense out of that was the call, no way to go over the top there. I wondered about the TO’s myself and thought it seemed like they were saving them to have a chance to run when they got closer. The goal was to score with little to no time left for CIN to get a quick FG attempt. It got sloppy at the end for sure but I think Harbaugh is a top coach and came very close to a big win vs a team with a superior QB on the road.

I think this is what it boils down to. They’re playing very good defense overall, but doing it short handed. They lack an elite rusher that can get home when a longer pass is required. If they rush 4 ( as they love to do) the QB has too much time; when they blitz the coverage is suspect and the ball comes out faster. It’s a personnel issue and one they probably can’t solve this postseason. Just have to play sound defense and realize that the occasional 3rd and long will get converted when an offense absolutely needs to make a play.

At least 2

Precisely. Any Bills fan crying foul if roles were reversed would be a fool. You are what your record says you are: the league doesn’t deal in what ifs.

Agree. More long drives would help- they worked last night, and more Josh running. Huntley was effective yesterday and darn near won the game with it before disaster turned things in favor of the Bengals , who appeared to be on their way to being knocked out on their home turf.

And it’s not even theirs … directly lifted from the Saints

I believe I saw that STH would be receiving an email.. not sure where I read it though.

Pretty much sums it up…

Maybe. Haven’t been able to find this exact breakdown but perhaps someone will. It’s the NFL so those stats have to exist somewhere. Would be interesting to see.

The Bills defense is very different from the Ravens but that doesn’t mean they can’t borrow a few concepts from what worked vs CIN last night. I don’t think it’s about stepping up as much as scheme and personnel.

Well, no they don’t. They should have won another game earlier and had an equal record to the Bills. That most likely would have been taken into account. They had 1 less win so no neutral site.

Chalk it up to other teams have NFL players and they make plays vs the Bills sometimes too, just not a lot of ‘em.

So overall ppg allowed and overall 3rd down defense aren’t that important to you, but some third and 10+ conversions are ?
