Great Falcons zero shot. Everyone will be gushing about Pats...

No energy from the falcons

I do as well. Want to see replay which we won't get. It could be called every down.

Meaningless but that hold was so marginal

These flags...

I think Falcons have a good shot in this one. The away Thursday games are rough.

Everybody practiced for colts today. So much for that. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.stampedeblue.com/platform/amp/2021/11/18/22790019/colts-injury-report-five-key-colts-return-to-practice

Again, you think it's a bad matchup, articulate why. The above ain't so great. I think Colts are a good matchup for the Bills. They have a poor passing defense. We have one of the best. They have a poor passing offense. We have DBs who can cover. They have an immobile QB who makes goofs when pressured. Our D thrives on turnovers and pressure. Believe it or not Bills play the run well. Even last year we had a good record vs top 10 rush teams. I hate the Brown news though.

Damn that's a gut punch

I just realized we are 12-2 at home in past 2 years. Man, I don't see the Colts winning.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.si.com/nfl/colts/.amp/news/colts-bills-week-11-wednesday-injury-report Lots of good players DNP for colts. Missing Buckner, Fisher, and Leonard would be huge.

Yep let them matriculate ...the big key is not letting them on hitting chunk plays. Like Henry's big runs. We've given up some decent rushing yards in games we won. Our defense will then force turnovers, make big plays, eventually stall out drives, hunker down in RZ, or do their thing and our offense and ST is good enough to flip field position. We had some lousy field position that 2020 game.

Just rewatching the 2020 game and a few thoughts: We should be proud won this game. Some folks speak about this game like we got like lucky, but we were in a knife fight and stuck in there, and came out on top. Josh Allen too is remembered as playing bad when he was electric and made a ton of crazy plays. The Colts were motivated. This was the playoffs, this was Rivers last tour. He wanted it bad. Rivers release was ungodly quick. We got decent pressure and he was so wired in. This is an underrated game in the lore of this team. Bills fans should not talk about this like some strange embarrassing incident. We're tough. We hung in there and played tough the next week too.

I tip my hat that you may be right. We all saw Trent Edwards. Many thought he was a borderline MVP candidate 5 games into his 2nd year.

Mac is good. I predict he will trend downward this year, but long term he will be an excellent QB. Schedule gets rough, weather will get cold. Mac Jones has very little cold weather experience, and has never played anything like a 17 game schedule. He's going to have some melt down moments even though the offense does not put a ton on him. Only a dozen rookie QBs in NFL history have put their team in the playoffs. I think NE will pull this off, but it won't be pretty.

Most threads about a 6-4 team ever. In all seriousness, they are a bit over hyped. News flash, Pats are over hyped and exposed. I think the Falcons have a legit shot at the upset Thursday.

Offense rank here is "bogus" looks like this is total yards rank, and seeing as how Bills have played 1 less game, Colts have them by a hair in total yards. Bills avg 33 pts per game to Colts 26. Very shady ranking!

Going into last year's playoff game, I thought the Bills were a better football team by quite a bit. Our defense had really come along, and JA was on a streak. I thought the Bills D would get to Rivers, and that Colts would not be able to stop us. I thought Colts had to do too many things to beat us. Game was closer than I thought. I was wrong about a few things, but right about my overall prediction. Rivers and Colts online were a big area that kept them in the game. Rivers was old and slow afoot, but he was super quick release and wired tight. He was hard to hurry and pressure. That and Colts played physical up front on D. But in the end, Bills were too much on offense and on defense. The difference in this upcoming game is Wentz likely won't get the ball out and avoid pressure. The stats say he is getting sacked a lot more. With all things considered I see our defense still as this hurdle they will not 🚫 overcome. Not Wentz.

Has Mac Jones ever even played in the cold? More than 12 games in a season?

Me too, but I'm not as worried. We shut down the run we win easy.

Colts have given up 18 sacks already after giving up 21 ALL last year. Wentz is no Rivers. I don't think a game manager will beat us at home.

Peter Schraeger unwatchable this AM gushing over Pats. BTW for patsy fans penciling in the W Thursday night versus the Falcons .....not so fast...

Man clear fumble there. Refs terrible.

That damn hit was a fumble. Arm went up...

Let's also not go crazy they beat Brownies without Chubb and Hunt.
