“Speak roughly to your little boy and beat him when he sneezes! he only does it to annoy, because he knows it teases!” ― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland No particular reason that came to my mind here.

Welcome to the NFL, Sauce. And oh, Boo Hoo. I think the truth is, when Sauce was the shiny new star, he got away with a lot of stuff. Well, the shine is worn down now and he's getting treated more in line with other DBs and called for more of the penalties he actually commits.

Crazy 2nd quarter. All our drives were short. 3 and out, 6 and out, 3 and out, 3 and out. Josh in fact completed 2 passes for 4 and 8 yards, but he was sacked twice for -7 and -9 yds, bookending a false start by Dion Part of it seems to be an attempt to open up a deeper passing game, resulting in a pick and an incompletion.

I'm not the defensive scheme guru that others here are, but how can you not, at least to some extent, leave the DE on an "island" as an initial run defender, in McDermott's scheme? (at least, not without leaving a giant hole somewhere else)? Of course, in McDermott's scheme, the LB and the safety should be reading and reacting correctly so the DE isn't the ONLY player in the way. But the DE has to be able to set the edge against the run. I thought Williams played better last year when he was filling in for Milano. Not that he wasn't still in the wrong place sometimes, just less of the time Perhaps we were hiding him better last year, between the DL rotation and Rapp/Hamlin instead of Rapp/Bishop?

Oh, burn

I've heard people say that "Week 1 is a liar" but I actually kind of feel like the first 4-5 weeks of the season are liars. So much depends upon which opponents a team has faced in those first few weeks. I mean, look at Green Bay. They came into tonight with a top-5 defense on 3rd down conversion, #3 rush defense, best defense in the league on points. They beat Detroit and Washington, both good teams. This was NOT the defense I expected to see based upon that record. And it wasn't the offense I expected to see based on Dallas defensive record. The Bills gave up ridiculous rush yards to the Ravens week 1. I think when things average out, our rush D isn't going to be bottom dwelling. We did better on 3rd downs, yeah - something like 31% conversion I was telling people that NO moved the ball on Seattle, they just got kicked into a pit they couldn't climb out of by their ST miscues. I would agree they've got a good start on their rebuild. Come away from this game with some pride - one thing I don't think we, as fans, take into account is to what extent the Bills have a target on them. Other teams and coaches do get fired up for their games with us now a days.

Um WAT? What Dallas NYG game were you watching? Wilson sucked. Whole GB team looks discombobulated. Indeed

I'm so sorry your daughter and your family are going through this. People don't realize what a serious disease eating disorders are. Best of wishes for getting her good treatment and keeping her in it. Oh, yeah, and eff off cheerleading, gymnastics, modeling, and anything else that gets girls to focus on being skeletally thin.

Hooo lordy, if you wanna see a frustrating defense check out Dallas Green Bay. Cheeseheads, that's Swiss Cheese. That was supposed to be the #1 D in the league going into this game. Yeah Dallas getting shredded too, but we knew they had problems.

Spags? He had his shot 2x. Rams 2009-2011 and Giants (interim) 2017 He took a 1-15 team (his 1st year) to 7-9 his 2nd year (missed playoffs by 1 game) then back to 2-14 his 3rd year. A lot went into that, but his huge mistake was, when Pat Shurmer left to become HC in Cleveland, he hired Josh McDaniels as OC, fresh off disaster as the Broncs HC Anyway, the story on him seems to be he's a brilliant DC who is over his head as a HC.

You know, it's entirely possible Lamar is injured in a way that would exacerbate if he's out there. I like our guy better, but it's really a bad look to put down another team's player like this. "he doesn't look all that hurt to me" LOL short of blood running down his face or a bone sticking out of his leg how can you possibly tell? https://www.nfl.com/news/ravens-qb-lamar-jackson-suffers-hamstring-injury-in-game-vs-chiefs This is a regular season game, and it's a long season.

Twitter. Buffalo Bills, Buffalo Bills PR, Sal Capaccio, Joe Buscaglia. Sal often breaks it first, seems like.

The Ravens historically have a tough, physical defense. This ain't that thing.

Goodness, I was hoping for a Game. But this is a Shambles. The Giants played KC tougher than this.

You know there's a fine line between a guy who tries to extend the play (because he's had good success with that) and a guy who doesn't when to throw it away? Our guy habitually steps that line as well.

?

Van Demark was a calculated risk to keep as our backup swing tackle last season. He started as strictly a LT, and the thought was he's improved enough to hold down the fort at RT. They may need to re-think that thought.

I told y'all guys the Saints moved the ball on Seattle. It was their ST miscues against the SeaSnakes that gave Seattle 21 points on a platter and put them deep in a hole in the 1Q, that and not being able to punch it in. Well, their ST came out hot, and they moved the ball on us. We just moved the ball on them better.

Dude. Josh had a pick on 3rd and 11 from the Buffalo 12 yard line. We would have been punting from our end zone. And did you see how aggressive NO punt coverage unit was being? Reid Ferguson had a false start and an offensive hold. He has 1 career offensive holds - back in 2017. He has two (2) false starts in his career, last one in 2022. Something was up there. We had a net punting average of 36 yds today. Josh's pass was intercepted on the 49 yd line and that's where it stayed. Essentially that pass was a punt, from a down and distance where actually punting might have been problematic today.

Agreed. Factually, there was one OH called on NO. But somehow, there were defensive holds on our DBs AND offensive PI/ offensive holding on our WR but nothing on NO? I don't know, it just seems a bit as though the refs were trying to keep NO in the game. Had family members who bet against the spread or something.

That must really have you hunched over

Come ON, Poe-Birds!

Felt sloppy, WAS sloppy. Yikes. But we got the win so. McDermott will not be happy with all the pre-snap penalties. 11 for 55 yds. Of those, 5 were pre-snap penalties. 3 false start penalties (Dawkins, Ferguson, Edwards) 1 illegal shift on Palmer Defensive too many men on field (OUCH) Of interest: Reid Ferguson, who is usually solid AF, was called for a false start once and for offensive holding once. Given that Johnson was actually hit and hurt while punting, I have to wonder if someone on the NO side was jumping the gun and not being flagged for it, and Ferguson was trying to protect his guy. The Defensive too many men on field is bad Lots to clean up.

Um, you have to ask who would have been better who was on the team at the time? Your turn
