  1. He's pretty much the best QB in the league when it comes to throwing with strong wind. Of course I'd prefer the wind to not be that big of a factor, but the silver lining is that Rudolph will be throwing in it as well.
  2. Damn I was really hoping after Douglas saying he was good to go that would indeed be the case.
  3. This play was absolutely infuriating. One of those plays that there's just no rational explanation as to why it was missed. Just straight up seems like a ref seeing it and being like "***** it, not calling it."
  4. Weather is very possibly a significant factor.
  5. The back to back aspect of it all absolutely blew my mind. He seriously stepped up.
  6. This is true and I don't disagree mostly. Considering the circumstances and the weather Buffalo is likely to get in the foreseeable future, there isn't any other QB I would want to have for my team more than I would want Allen. But nevertheless I'd prefer him playing in an ideal environment as much as possible. So who knows. The Great Lakes didn't even freeze this year so maybe we'll be looking at much more mild weather than years past. And yes, both teams do have to deal with the elements equally. I'd be less concerned about it if I was a little more confident in our ground game, but you are correct. There have been several recent examples where we finally exhibited a bully type attitude and drove down their throats. Here's hoping we see more of that this coming weekend.
  7. I am a bit worried about this and hope that the wind doesn't end up being that bad. Josh is Josh but given the choice to see him play in the elements vs a perfect weather controlled environment, I'll take the latter every time. A lot of people don't like to admit it, but there's really isn't such a thing as a cold weather team anymore. Our home field advantage is mostly negated when conditions get really bad, particularly against teams who are better build for power running than we are. Josh does seem to handle high wind better than a lot of other QBs, so that's definitely a bonus, but I'm not sure some of the amazing throws that were made last night would be made in the kind of conditions we might be looking at. I love outdoor football and I love the history of the Bills in the snow and the cold, but the reality is that those variables hurt us more than they help us. I very much hope that the design of the new stadium mitigates the weather factor like we have been told it will, otherwise situations like this will undoubtedly cost us late season wins in the future, and the dome conversation will become even more of a sore issue than it already is. I personally wish this team was playing in a dome with grass and Allen himself was on the architectural design board. At least we brought up Lenny to replace Murray. Watching him get significant carries in a nasty weather game would not be good for my health.
  8. We are 10 point favorites against the Steelers.
  9. Thrilled we got the win. Really cool to see the players who are always getting ripped to shreds step up to save the day. You can’t ask for much more than that. (Other than fewer interceptions)
  10. Pretty much the stuff of dreams to be honest. People written off as bums playing the part of hero. Really special.
  11. Wow I’m shaking. What a gutsy win. Great job of shaking off that first half. Really impressed.
  12. The redemption of Rapp.
  13. keep the clock going
  14. What is happening lol.
  15. Oh my god what a decision to make.
  16. That was incredible.
  17. How do you get delay of game there.
  18. Yeah that scared me.
