This makes 13 seconds look like great game management.

Wow 3 weeks ago I thought the days of being an embarrassed Bills fan were in the rearview. I get it you can't win every game but this is pee wee league crap here.

Do the coaches practice how to lose? Seems like you couldn't find more ways to lose.

WTF

We gave the Vikings every chance to win that. Imagine if we didn't turn the ball over and played coverage on Jefferson.

How late was that flag?

someone step up ............

Just slap the ball away ........... stop trying to catch it.

I guess if the offense has lost all ability to close out games at least the defense shows up in the 4th.

Von has earned that paycheck all year long .............. he is a closer.

I'm sorry but I would have settled for run run run punt there ..............................

Nothing like the second half with a lead to lose your GD mind. We've done this 8 of the last 12 quarters. Run the ball, play defense and don't turn the damn ball over when you are up. I'm fine with throwing it all over when you are trying to score points, get ahead, two minute drill but for Pete's sake have some situational awareness.

I'm on board with Saffold. Davis has had some bright spots. MicKenzie was always a question mark for me. Knox has had off the field things going on. Oliver has had bright spots along with Espenesa (who is actually 3rd in sacks). I thought Saffold was going to be the next coming of Incognito. I real mauler who stood up well at the point of attack. Have not seen much from Saffold to be impressed with. Hoping the line plays into shape together as a unit.

Not sure how a link to a fantasy football stat site proves anything. What exactly proves your point? Mind you when you bring up a stat from the 8 games this season to say he can't do something there is most likely a career long history of him in fact being able to do it. It's well documented that he is both good at yards after contact and making tacklers miss.

By all means share some of those advanced metrics that say Singletary is the problem with the running game.

You don't run well 100 percent of the time that you don't run. More importantly you become predictable 100 percent of the time you don't run. Some teams it doesn't even matter. Teams with a good defense you get predictable and they keep it close and sometimes you get beat. This sounds like someone who has never seen him play a down. If you said he doesn't out run the secondary or he's not a home run back I'd kind of agree but Motor runs bigger than his size and is more elusive than most backs and there's plenty of numbers to back that up.

Even if we did have the best RB in the NFL what defense would care if he only got 8 carries a game?

Most people's point has nothing to do with the production of the running game and more to do with the predictability of our offense in general. Run whoever you want just try to mix it up more than two or 3 carries in the second half.

The upgrade to our running game that is needed is the amount of carries. Our OL makes mistakes in passing and running but last year and this year when we run the ball more we score more points. Our problem has never been the RB's and whatever problems our OL has they have both running and passing but from a defensive perspective if we just throw all the time we are easier to stop. We've shown in last season and this season. ps Just for the record I could care less if it's Cook or Motor just run the ball more.

I'm just messing with you now ................ still it's a big picture thing, not individual stats.

So yo are saying we have longer drives when we give him more carries ......................

You have to udnerstand that some things are a sum of their parts. The big picture. If week after week you see us scoring when they run Motor more than twice then it's recognizable that no matter what his stats are running the ball makes a difference.

We're 0 and 2 in the division. I don't like that even if we are still the to seed in the AFC.

Fist half of the GB game we had a running game. From then on we crumpled up that game plan and threw it in the trash and we've not scoring and we are turning the ball over. For the game Singletary had 8 carries and 6 of those were on our TD scoring drives. That means the rest of the game he had 2 carries and we scored 3 points.

No speed is not really true. That said I just saw Kupp run past the TB defense and he ran a slower 40 than Singletary. Singletary's speed is just fine for establishing a running game if we cared to do that.
