Astrojanitor Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 they have got to find a way to fix this defense during the bye. Simply can not keep giving up 400-500 yards and expect to win
Buffalo Barbarian Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Nuts Key to this team is winning the turnover numbers. Yep those ints killed us.
NastyMan Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 The D has been next to useless. No one person lost the game, the team playing like **** is going to lose the game No Fitz lost that game miss managed it in the first should have thrown it away and took the points and I am not mad about the last INT aggressive I liked it. I thought our D did a fine job minus the Pass Interference calls on Florance (2 on critical downs) the D played good for missing so many players. The bye week couldn't have come at a better time for us.
jrb2590 Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Everyone blaming the game on fitz, for good reason. But IMO florence was far and away the worst player on the field. Absolutely horrible performance
BillsVet Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Missing 3 defensive starters… Kyle Williams, Kelsay, Merriman. Try to keep it in perspective. NYG lost to Seattle in their home park last week and was without Chris Snee and Brandon Jacobs. This is the NFL, injuries happen, and Buffalo's not able to make plays when it matters as teams take away their strengths. It's deeper than having 1 good, one average, and one underwhelming starter out.
TheBrownBear Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 I love fitz, but his arm is weak and it showed today. It cost us the game. I don't think that was the case at all. He clearly tried to featherr those balls up there instead of just gunning them. They weren't long throws, or throws he can't make.
JOE IN HAMPTON ROADS Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Fitz n Gailey gave this one away today Gailey's refusal to run the ball killed them today Agreed Freddo should have gotten more snaps and maybe we would not have been in a forced throw situation late in the fourth. BUT . . . poor d had more to do with this loss. We need to use the bye to reeavaluate our D. We need much more from Darious and Merriman (not playing today I know).
phypon Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Missing 3 defensive starters… Kyle Williams, Kelsay, Merriman. Try to keep it in perspective. Down 3 starters the defense still gave up long drives and 27 points, not missing a beat from their normal MO. I'm pretty sure my perspective is just fine, thanks.
mrags Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 I blame the offensive playcalling on this game. Not so much throughout the game but when we were tied with less than 4 minutes left when we were in FG range. I'm completely suprised considering how Freddie was running earlier in the game. I'm completely suprised there wasn't a short pass play instead. Fitz threw a bad ball a few times today but they shouldn't have been in the position to lose. The defense gave rhe O an opportunity for the first time all day and the O blew it when it counted. Great, now I have to hear Loser Giant fans at work for the rest of my life because Chan Gailey can't run a god damned ball and kill the clock when it means the game. As if I didn't have any missed field goals to talk about for the last 20 something years. @SSHOLES!!!!!!!
Tcali Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Missing 3 defensive starters… Kyle Williams, Kelsay, Merriman. Try to keep it in perspective. I'll give you the Williams--dont think we missed the other two. Our D was actually slightly better than it has been(minus the big turnovers of course) Too bad because I think The Giants are the second worst team we have played.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 They probably should being giving Florence a test about now.
bladiebla Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Turnovers, Drayton and the refs ginving the Giants the TD that wasnt and not giving us the clear PI against Jackson was too much to over come. Hopefully we'll have everybody back after the bye week.
NewEra Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Missing 3 defensive starters… Kyle Williams, Kelsay, Merriman. Try to keep it in perspective. Defensively that hurt us, no doubt. Fitz hurt us today, no doubt. If he was on his game, we win today if he is somewhat good. He wasn't.
ganesh Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 No Fitz lost that game miss managed it in the first should have thrown it away and took the points and I am not mad about the last INT aggressive I liked it. I thought our D did a fine job minus the Pass Interference calls on Florance (2 on critical downs) the D played good for missing so many players. The bye week couldn't have come at a better time for us. Both his interceptions were grossly under thrown. Otherwise, they may have been a TD... Also, wish McKelvin had gone for the INT rather than batting it down. He was in a good position to make that play. His confidence level must be pretty low.
BuffaloBaumer Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Unnecessary post. Hey I love Fitz but that was just an idiotic throw with the game in their hands. If you are throwing that ball, you better damn well not underthrow it with the game on the line........
Buffalo Barbarian Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Hate this loss.... no takeaways and still a better team. Alot of mental mistakes. Giants are always tough, they were physical today, with out our big plays they dominate.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Defensively that hurt us, no doubt. Fitz hurt us today, no doubt. If he was on his game, we win today if he is somewhat good. He wasn't. Yep. Truth is, in a game this close, you can point at no less than a half dozen plays as the difference.
TheBrownBear Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Buffalo's not able to make plays when it matters as teams take away their strengths. you must have missed the ne, oak, and philly games?
Buffalo Barbarian Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 The Bills are fine. 10-6, playoffs. 12 - 4
