Bengals were playing the correct offense for having a garbage o-line. Quick passes and power straight ahead running. The Bills have a similarly garbage o-line but instead go for slow developing runs and slow developing downfield passes. Guess who had more success?

It being his first year as an OC is the only reason I give him some leeway. It’s possible he could learn from his mistakes. I wouldn’t be heartbroken if he were replaced with a more veteran OC either.

McD is okay, but his coordinators stink. Frazier should be gone and Dorsey should be given some pointed criticism and some serious homework for this summer.

Jones was out and Phillips was playing with one arm. That was the big issue on the IOL. I agree that Oliver is too inconsistent to be worth a big extension if that’s what you meant.

Some of those players that were injured and were going to play a major role might not be the same anymore. Poyer, Hyde, White, Miller…all might be done or much less effective next year. Edmunds might be gone as well if he isn’t signed. Defense might look very different next year. Might be time for a new DC and soft reboot of the defense with some new blood.

Lol, I think you missed what happened in Tampa after they got rid of Dungy.

We had a lot of injuries on defense to be fair, and players on offense regressed.

#1. This shows how important the bye is. We could have faced the inferior Jaguars and a hobbled Mahomes at home. #2. Jordan Phillips and D. Jones being unavailable or limited killed the middle of our d-line today. #3. Defense just had too many injuries this year, reminds me of the Ravens last year. Hyde, Von Miller, Poyer gimpy all year, Tre White not 100%, Hamlin, Benford and Dane Jackson missed some time, Milano and Edmunds missed time (probably why we lost first Jets game), also the two DTs mentioned above. Other contenders were much healthier overall. #4. Our o-line stunk all year and it stunk in this game too. We had much better o-line play last year at the end of the year and in the playoffs. Brown regressed some, and Saffold must be much worse than Ike was. #5. The combination of Allen and Dorsey just didn’t seem to click. I know statistically they were similar to last year, but things just looked disjointed the second half of the season. #6. Gabe Davis dropped another big time important play, even though we shouldn’t be throwing bombs every 3rd and short. #7. If you were watching closely, you shouldn’t be too surprised about this outcome. Bills had a hard year for a lot of reasons and just didn’t have it. Our best chance was to get some bounced and squeak by, but just didn’t happen. #8. I’ve been paying too much attention to football, so maybe this is healthy.

Not that it matters, but his knee was down way short of the first down on that third down. Refs just wanna get out of here.

They aren’t calling it both ways

Scoring 10 in a playoff game won’t help his career

Couldn’t be more blatant

That felt like a set play too, not an Allen decision

Moronic call

Bills are getting killed on penalties, but the entire internet seems to believe they are trying to rig the game for the Bills because of that bobble catch TD overturn. Makes no sense.

Defense is Swiss cheese, almost doesn’t matter what the offense does

Can’t see the ball

Johnson stinks

Fades almost never work, hate that low percentage call

It doesn’t take much homework for the other D to know if they are heavy on one side and Gabe Davis is lined up behind the line it is a run to that side. Totally predictable.

Come on Dorsey, even I knew that run was going there.

After his defense gets shredded in the playoffs for the third year in a row I kind of doubt it

They do that for every team every year. All of the other divisional teams with potential home games sold championship game tickets. It only is bulletin board material because Mixon is dumb.

Yea, only one forced punt and missed a TD on all the other drives by a hair.

Offense is disappointing to me. We knew the defense were paper tigers. Only having 7 points in a half is bad.
