Five called penalties on Atlanta; one on NE.

That was a hold? BS! You call a hold on 3rd and 9 to GUARANTEE that the first down is not made. Notice how garbage man Aikman made no comment on the replay clearing showing NO HOLD. It's getting harder and harder to watch the NFL. For the count: Four called penalties on the Falcons, one on the Pats.

I'm thinking the Bills D can handle the short passing game of the Pats.

Atlanta's defense at least looks interested in the game tonight which is a good sign.

Didn't Green Bay go on the road and beat a 7 - 0 Arizona team missing half a dozen key starters including BOTH their WR's and TE? Sure I would rather have Brown in the line up but if we can't at least split the next two games with him out we don't deserve to win the division.

And what impressed me the most about this game was that at the end of the 2nd quarter Allen threw a bad pick 6. He came out in the 3rd and led the Bills on a long TD drive. It was like the pick 6 only pissed him off. That told me that he had the Kelly/Elway/Farve QB gene.

Like you I am shocked at the number of people who say Allen played poorly in this game. We see this mostly on 2BD by some posters. As soon as I see a post claiming Allen didn't play all that well in the Colts game I dismiss that poster as a football illiterate who is simply trolling. The fact is that Allen played fantastic and that it was one of, if not the best, performance by a QB in the playoffs last season.

Second best - AFTER Jim Kelly.

That was a good catch though!

Agree, but all we need to do IMO is split with the Pats and then beat the Jets. Even if we drop an extra game we'll win the Division on the 2nd tie breaker (division record).

Why are we even arguing about strength of schedule? It's just a form of mental *****. The Bills and Patriots play twice, we'll know after those two games which is the better team.

I love this. It's hard to root for a team that's trying to buy a Super Bowl. Go Niners!

What a load of crap. Bills fans have been humbled for the last two decades. Hell, losing FOUR straight Super Bowls will humble a fan base and that's when we were playing great. Now that the Bills have real talent all over the roster with a stud franchise QB why shouldn't we be excited and optimistic about this team? IMO the sad sack posters are exhibiting clear signs of PTSS with the idea that the sky is about to fall in on the Bills because the Pats are playing good football. It's insane.

Do you think the Bills were extra motivated to beat Houston this year because they lost to them in the playoffs in 2019? Being motivated to beat KC was about way more then avenging a couple of losses. It was about becoming top dog in the AFC. The Chiefs had been to 3 straight AFC championship games and two straight Super Bowls and had beaten the Bills badly in the championship game. Being motivated to beat the Chiefs was more about claiming the top spot in the AFC then any type of personal grudge match. And what do you mean the Colts beat themselves last season? They didn't turn the ball over and didn't exactly have a lot of penalties. It was the Bills that blew 4th quarter leads of 14 & 10 points to make the game a nail biter at the end. The fact was that the Bills largely controlled the Colts stud RB holding him to 78 yards on 21 carries. And they did it without Star! In contrast the Colts couldn't handle the Bills stud QB who ran for 54 yards and one TD and completed 26 of 35 passes for 324 yards and two TD's.

I wouldn't be shocked if the Bills lost to the Colts. Indy is a solid team. My point is all the nervous Nellie's throwing out gloom & doom scenarios saying that a Bills loss would be expected. Given the circumstances no Bill's fan should be expecting the Colts to win. So while I wouldn't be shocked by a Bills loss I expect them to win. And I prefer people who look for reasons why the Bills will win then trying to dig up every reason why they will lose. Off the top of my head the Bills playing at home and facing a less dangerous QB then they did last year in Rivers are two very good reasons why I think they win this game.

The Bills were beaten TWICE by KC last year and in the Championship game were beaten badly by the Chiefs. That's a lot different then getting beat by 3 points in the playoffs.

Are you talking about all those dump off passes to Moss that Brady threw? Brady was never reluctant to launch it downfield. And for the record I like Jones and think he is doing the best of the rookie QB's this year. But we're a long way from knowing whether he's the best QB in his draft class. In some ways Jones reminds me of Baker Mayfield: came from an elite college program and hit the ground running. But after a fantastic rookie season Baker's progression leveled off and now it's doubtful the Browns see him as their franchise QB.

No it means that PFF has very little credibility. We already know Allen is a fantastic QB.

You state this as if matters in any way. PFF is a clown show at best.

You have to laugh at all the nervous Nellie's on 2BD for the Colts game. First, the idea that last years playoff loss will motivate the Colts in any special way is silly. BOTH teams will be motivated because this is a big game with playoff implications. Second, the idea that the Bills got lucky to beat the Colts in the playoffs last year is BS. Buffalo led 14 - 10 at half; 17 - 10 at the end of the 3rd quarter; 24 - 10 early in the 4th quarter and 27 - 17 midway through the 4th quarter. The Bills never trailed in the 2nd half. Third, Rivers played a great game against the Buffalo D last year in the playoffs. He threw for over 300 yards, two TD's and had no TO's. It would be a long shot for Wentz to play as ell as Rivers did. Fourth, I don't know whether to laugh or cry at Bills "fans" claiming that the Wentz game against Buffalo in 2019 will have anything to do with this upcoming game. Hell, Wentz has regressed as a QB since that game and Allen has gotten much better.

Last years playoff game will have zero impact on this game. Both Indy & the Bills should be motivated to win now that we're in the playoff hunt stretch. And I fear an accurate, patient QB like Rivers more then I do Wentz. Sure, it will be a tough game but I see the Bills taking it by 7 - 10 points.

There is a big difference between this O - line with Brown at Tackle and Williams at guard then with Williams at tackle and Ford at guard. .

On the 15 yard TD sweep by Breida watch Brown pancake the LB. It's impressive from both a physical and athletic standpoint.

Does anyone luck out in having their interceptions dropped as much Mahomes? That's two tonight.

All you need to unleash Allen and that WR group is a little time to throw the ball. Brown is playing great and Williams is a much better guard then tackle. And I'll say it - Brown was a home run pick in the 3rd round.
