Rubes

Twice in one night, though??

Same. He probably should go, though, for his own sake. He really needs to see the field more, and with Diggs, Brown, Beasley, and Davis here, he's just not getting the opportunities. I'd love to keep him, though.

Zimmer is the real hero on that play. How the heck did a defensive lineman get all the way down the field ahead of almost anyone else?

No kidding! He was like one of the first ones to celebrate in the end zone and I was like, “how did he get there so fast?”

I don't know about others, but there's no way I could watch a 3-hour Bills game confined to a car. I need to pace around like a crazy man jacked on amphetamines.

Great point. I'll admit I was torn about whether the Bills should have played or rested their starters against Miami, but in the end I think they did the right thing to eliminate their foe and stay sharp for the playoffs, even if it does risk injury.

Endorsed.

Bills win the Super Bowl and I’m getting that bastard tattooed on my shoulder.

Seeing a lot more folks picking the Ravens over the Bills this morning. I'm seeing very few favoring the Bills. Seems like the 'experts' are expecting it to be the one upset of the weekend. Hopefully we'll use that as some motivation.

Personally, I think the biggest factors in this game for the Bills are the two lines. If the offensive line can open some holes for RBs and keep pass rushers away from JA, we'll do fine on offense. If the defensive line can plug up holes and get pressure on LJ without letting him spring loose, we'll do fine on defense. Honestly, that should really be true for just about any game.

Nevertheless, they were able to rip off several very long runs, which were just as effective as long passes and helped lead to very quick scores. Expecting the Colts to pass neither slowed them from passing nor slowed them from running, and did nothing to slow them from scoring.

It's a good question, but if the Colts could score on us quickly in large part by running the ball. First drive, 75 yards, 49 on the ground. Second drive, 76 yards, 33 on the ground. Lamar could easily do at least that with his legs...

Still, as I said the bulk of the yards were gained on the ground by the Colts. That, combined with our chronic inability to cover any TE in the passing game, means teams can score as quickly on us as we can score on them.

On the other hand, our defense has shown time and again that they can do an excellent job of allowing other teams to score quickly. See Seahawks, Rams, and most definitely the Colts, whose two 4th Q scoring drives were 2:38 and 1:55 in length, even though the bulk of the yards were gained on the ground.

Hopefully not a white out...

I think it's gonna be the all-blues.

Me neither. Hopefully McD will be showing some film of it to get the boys fired up...

Wonder if we'll be seeing more McKenzie if that's the case...bet he's licking his chops...

Agree here. It's been a problem for years, but it has been magnified this season for some reason. There were so many games where I was wondering if the defense would ever do something to stop the throws to the TEs, because teams were just doing it over and over again and we had no response. We haven't really lost games because of it this year, but it's mostly because we had a strong offense to outscore others. I guess I just have to agree with others that it's a weakness of the scheme or something, like the deep out is a weakness of the Cover 2.

Great way to put it. I agree the motion of his arm made it look like he was throwing a touch pass, and then the ball just absolutely exploded off his hand like it was shot from a cannon. My jaw hit the floor on that one. Another thing to add about Diggs: the guy is a warrior. He has taken big hit after big hit going up for the ball, and he doesn't drop it, and he comes right back for the next play. He is one tough dude.

Opponent will have a short week...

Just showed it on CBS.

Still, it was Tannehill who threw the INT to lose the game, and Jackson who iced it in the clutch...

Fixed that for ya.

Honestly, I think yesterday's Colts team would have beaten either of these teams. I want Pittsburgh to win tonight almost just so I can watch Baltimore play KC. That would be a great game to watch.
