Hollins was open by five yards and looking for the ball to come over his left inside shoulder as normal. The QB is supposed to loft the ball to his inside so he can track the ball without turning his back. To insist he meant to throw the ball to the sideline to require an over the shoulder adjustment and catch is nonsense. Simply an overthrow to the wrong shoulder by Josh. It happens.

I believe the coaches overly think their gameplan and once they decide this is the way were going to attack a certain team, that's it. We're too slow (stubborn ?) to adjust during the game. The defense I saw against Lamar was not good and the coaches did not respond. Look at how they played the 1st three games - what we saw against the Ravens was not the same team. Players the same - gameplan and strategy entirely different.

Looked like the Bills were playing a soft defense (modified prevent)? Never saw so few Bills around the ball. The Ravens were free to roam for yards before and after the catch (bend but not break)? Lots of single player tackle misses. I didn't see the aggressive multiple player tackles as in previous games. Maybe they were afraid of Lamar and conceded too much space. Overthinking on defense? Hope they can come up with a better gameplan next time.

Very simple - You chase a player down from behind then you grab him by the waist and bring him down without throwing your body weight on the back of his legs. So a hip drop tackle is when you grab a player's waist from behind and then swivel your body to put your total body weight on the back of his legs thus trapping his lower leg(s) between your body and the ground. Leads to serious lower leg injuries. Its very obvious to see and a good rule change.

The last game the defensive line made 0 tackles. With my eyes I see the same defensive line play over and over and never getting to Mahomes. Perhaps we needed someone to recognize the situation and try different things to help the line. More stunts, blitzes etc - anything to put more pressure on Mahomes and/or make a tackle. Time for a new defensive coordinator and to make McDermott function as Marv Levy who was a special teams guy.

The Bills did not want tp get into a shootout with Mahomes at any cost. They basically played prevent defense all game. Even Mahomes said the Bills played to prevent the long ball all game. So it appears the Bills were good with death by a 1000 cuts in willing to concede the running game in an effort to slow the Chiefs. It almost worked as we were in it at the end and showed some toughness at the very end. I think they did this in Tennessee as well. This is why the Chiefs ran wild and convert so may 3rd downs. But this has to be a morale killer to a proud defense, to give up so much yardage willingly and is it sustainable?

Unnamed sources have indicated that the average temperature in Hell is falling. There is an unprecedented frost warning in effect. Further details at a later date.

As he approached the kickoff, fans would yell "yooooooooooooooooooooo" and when he kicked the ball would yell "ho".. Fun times.

AWOL = Absent without official leave UA = Unauthorized absence Heard both terms during service. Not really sure of the difference. Did a tour of duty as a corrections officer in Camp Pendleton brig 1967

All penalties should include consideration as to whether it actually affected the play. If a penalty occurs on the opposite side of the field and has nothing to do with the play, the official should not throw a flag. The penalty is moot.

I think it means someone is stupid because of the stupid things they do. Sort of a self fulfilling prophecy.

Not impressed at all. Where's the fire? You gotta have some fire going, Naked and jumping on a burning table is the way to go.

Anybody considered that maybe the punt play was actually a screw up by the Pats special teams? Find it hard to believe he purposely left a gunner totally uncovered. Pictures I saw showed no Patriot within at least 20 yards, if not more.

Thought the refs decided to just let them play. I don't recall many stoppages of play for ticky tack fouls,. Don't recall any holding calls.

I think that scenario would drive the coaches crazy. OK when do I throw this one-time flag? If Reid had thrown it earlier in the game, then what? So I think they would probably keep it in their pocket until the last few minutes of a close game and probably never even use it. I've seen so many replays of passes where the db and receiver are hand fighting the whole time. More often than not receivers are giving a push on the db when running an out pattern. Like so many have said, pi (off or def) could be called on probably 90 percent of passes. I've watched football for over 50 years and played for 10 and still have no real answers for handling PI. Don't think you can review every one.

I'd like to see better playcalling on 1st and 2nd downs. Seems like we're consistently sending shady into the right side of the line on first down and usually on second down. You can almost predict every first down play. Run, run, pass was old school football. Need more play action, screens and passes to the running back to loosen up defenses. We also seem to play soft defense after getting the lead - need to be more aggressive after taking a lead.

Daboll the drive killer

I'm seeing a lot of hesitation. He seems to do a lot of stutter stepping with the ball instead of just going forward. One play yesterday in particular he broke into the secondary and just stopped, did his little dance and the defense easily caught up to him. Seemed like he just gave up on the play. Too much juking, probably looking for holes that aren't there.

Think its gonna be a Pats blowout. Not even close. However, if the Bills happen to somehow find themselves in the lead in the 4th quarter, its a guaranteed loss to the Pats. They'll totally collapse in the 4th if ahead by any margin.

I think Brady's gonna make our secondary look silly. Major blowout brewing. See a lot of garbage time for Anderson...

Exactly - did he complete that pass? No way to judge his accuracy based on this clip. all-22?

Allen is not good - don't like watching him play. Peterman is snake bitten and confidence has to be totally gone. We're only left with Anderson for this year. Need a QB or two for next year. So sad.

Don't really think they'll bench a healthy Allen over Peterson or Anderson. But, it seems to me, that Allen has regressed some since his first start when he looked more accurate.

Hope next year when they have all that money to spend and cap space, that they make good decisions and improve. But, based on their history, call me skeptical at best.

I care. Been following the Bills since 1960, am 74 years old and don't have that many years to wait for a great team years in the future, I want to enjoy and be hopeful every friggin year,
