My favorite was the most textbook blatant block in the back I've ever seen on a punt return 10 feet in front of the ref that went uncalled. Even blatant special teams penalties (which they called at least 2 on the Bills) weren't getting called on the Eagles! It kept the game close when I feel like we really could have pulled away. I think the second false start on Kelce was BS, and the roughing the passer in OT was an Allen flop. But if the officiating was even from the start I don't think it would have gotten to that anyway.

Next year we have only 4 defensive lineman signed. Ed Oliver, Baby Groot, Von Miller and Kingsley Jonathan (lol). We will have no WR #2 (say what you will about Davis, he is a warm body in a roster slot). Hyde and Rapp will be gone. Poyer and Hamlin are cut candidates. Tre White will be a cut candidate. Elam can't get on the field. Dane Jackson is a UFA. We have no cap space, and don't even have warm bodies to fill holes. The entire defense is going to be Rapp-caliber signings to fill holes. It's a retool/rebuild year.

Wow, there really is a Simpson's clip for everything.

This is why INT% is an important stat and not just raw INT. If a dude is throwing 50 times and throws 1 INT. That is a 2% INT percentage. That's middle of the road for the NFL, not bad at all.

Allen is going to get 2nd team All Pro I bet. He will have the best volume stats by the end of the year.

Are we sure McDermott isn’t actually Herm Edwards in a disguise?

My bad, 4-1. 10-7 is about a coin flip to get in IMO. Praying for things to fall your way for the last wild card spot is pathetic though.

Allen shouldn’t have given up 30 points after halftime. That is his bad.

We can go 5-1 with our remaining loss to the Cowboys. I’m not holding my breath though. I don’t think we win that many games anyway.

Lol, I’m assuming you are being sarcastic? But just in case you aren’t, having your timeouts means you can throw to the middle of the field and possibly even underneath once. Changes how the defense needs to play you.

Allen and Diggs always seem to be on the same page. I can’t remember an INT or big negative play due to miscommunication between them. Davis and Allen are constantly not on the same page. Occam’s razor says Gabe is the problem.

I’m not even sure it would still be good against Lamar. Ravens changed their O dramatically.

Jags game the offense is finally clicking and the defense gives up the back breaker. Should have lost the Giants game the same way, just got lucky.

It’s more about the pattern. There is a reason McDermott continues to lose games like this across seasons.

Eagles scored 3 TDs just before that and marched down for the FG at the end of regulation. Anyone paying attention knew the defense was cooked.

To that point, if the Bills go into it thinking it was 4 down territory they could have picked up some of it on 3rd down and not gone for the dagger.

If you really think about it, the offense gave the team the game-winning go ahead score twice! The defense just had to make one stop and they couldn’t do it. Instead they give up nearly 40 points.

McDermott coaches not to lose. Leads to a lot of losing unfortunately.

Probably something for the guy that speared Diggs in the mask too. No call of course.

I will say that I think the refs really screwed us in the first half. However, maybe if we beat the Pats and Jets we could afford to lose on the road to an 8-1 team and the refs.

McDermott’s scheme doesn’t work when the game is on the line. Good offenses will absolutely take the underneath stuff and move down the field. If we don’t get a turnover in these situations (KC regular season win last year) then it’s a foregone conclusion basically. The defense has choked away so many games when all they need is one stop in the McDermott era it’s mind boggling. They must be #1 in that statistic if there is a way to track it.

Bills defense completely collapsed in the second half. 5 TDs and a FG in the second half and OT. In the pouring rain. Pathetic! I don’t care how injured they are. That is a sorry display.

If this 3rd down is incomplete, then it is an identical situation to the Hail Murray.

Defensive holding to extend the drive. You know it’s coming.

Come on defense! One last stop!
