ToGoGo Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Taylor looks good despite the bad start to the game. We need to attack on both sides of the ball next week. Taylor did look good in the 2nd half. He was overthinking in the 1st half. Started using his feet in the 2nd. I think he did enough for us to win today.
Fixxxer Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 I didn't like the offensive gameplan going into this game. Unlike other games, we were too conservative and predictable on early downs. When we had to pass and convert the 1st down, TT threw the ball short of the 1st down marker. This was throughout the entire 1st half. Regarding TT's play, he was bad in this game. His accuracy was off on many passes. Penalties were a big problem, again. I know we sucked today by the refs suck so hard too at times. ST play was very poor, the Giants were all over our guys today. Defensively, I wish they could keep it single. It's like we try to outsmart ourselves. Keep it simple and be the "bully" you claim we are.
poblano Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) Why no one is calling on the dumb play in the fumble by Woods, he isn't going to score from the 30 Every detail counts in an NFL game Edited October 4, 2015 by poblano
Nihilarian Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 at least 7 first downs or more given to the Giants by penalties on Buffalo!! 17 penalties on Buffalo is just downright ridiculous!! I don't know what part of this game is more of an embarrassment? The penalties! Or the lack of a run game when this team was supposed to lead the NFL in rushing! Or the defensive scheme that is dropping elite highly paid pass rushers into pass coverage! Or perhaps the HC and his big mouth saying after the game he is proud of his team http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/10/04/rex-im-proud-of-how-bills-played-on-sunday/
Coach Tuesday Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Why no one is calling on the dumb play in the fumble by Woods, he isn't going to score from the 30 Because compared to the Rashad Jennings play where half the defense was just standing around, at least Robert Woods was trying to make a play. I'm far more concerned with his inability to separate than a fumble that occurred when he was trying to spark his team (after the whistle should've blown the play dead).
Bacchus44 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) The thing I noticed about the defensive line that I hated was they were NOT attacking the LOS. They seemed to be sitting back. Isn't the whole point of a Rex Ryan defense to attack the LOS and create mismatches? We are getting the worst of both worlds. We need to get this straightened out now. Agree. Good teams lose games. The Giants are not as bad as people tried to make them. We just need to keep improving because it's not how you start, it's how you finish. Taylor looks good despite the bad start to the game. We need to attack on both sides of the ball next week. Amen...well said. And with that said...while the poster Jeff was responding to mentioned that he didn't drink during the game, I also did not drink during the game, but am now treating myself to a Crown Royal Manhattan (or three). Think of it as...rethinking my game plan. Edited October 4, 2015 by Sabesfan71

That was one area going into game giants had an advantage on us. And it showed today
Boatdrinks Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 The defense struggled, but the offense lost this game. It was NOTHING LIKE the Patriots game. The Giants were held to 16 point for most of the game, but the Bills offense was stonewalled. Right. The D was pretty good today save the one horrible lapse on the low rent pass for a 51 yd TD. They also got lucky on a huge gainer that could have broken their back not for a penalty on NYG. By and large though, the ridiculously ineffective offense ( esp in the 1st half ) lost this game. A completed pass was a struggle and their best play of half might have been a NYG penalty. Defensively, bottom line is OBJ didn't come close to killing you, and that = a pretty good day vs Giants.

Even then, it was coming away with 0 on two red zone drives that ruined us. How is it possible to come away with 0 without a turnover? Just a disaster.
PortlandiaEast Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Or the lack of a run game when this team was supposed to lead the NFL in rushing! I think FOX showed a stat at the beginning of the game the the giants were #2 in the league at defending the run. Also our run game up to that point also included shady and sammy. While they weren't 100% they are still bodies that MUST be accounted for by the defense. Also, WAY WAY too many runs on first downs.
Fadingpain Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 In regards to the D line, I think Rex is way overscheming. THIS. The sign of Ryan being a good coach will be when he radically changes what he is doing and doesn't continue to force his philosophy on the players. He needs to modify his philosophy in relation to the players. He hasn't done that. Our offensive line is horrible, and Wood is a part of that. Our first pick next year in the draft must be a stud OL.
/dev/null Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 #17 Jim Schwartz where art thou? Never mind I just Googled that. He's got some consulting job with the officials. Hmmm, might that be related to the uptick in the Bills penalties this season? A little pay back at Rex? For the geniuses that think Watkins and Mcoy aren't valueable, watch the first half again. thanks but no. it was frustrating enough the first time
Prickly Pete Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 The Patriots were scoring practically every time they had the ball for the first 3 Quarters. The defense kept the score low for most of this game, (and the Giants had pretty good drive starts), but without anything out of the offense the game eventually got away.

True, but in classic Bills' fashion, when the team needed a big stop the D let them score a TD. It's been this same recipe for a decade now.
RevWarRifleman Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Did I call for Rex to be fired? Why don't you continue to "refrain" from any response at all? Maybe the thread will survive on its own sans your poignant input. At least its possible. It's amazing what some people read into #9, isn't it Bill. Kyle lining up at DE just about made me blow a gasket. And then Thigpen constantly catching it on the 8 and 9 yard line kinda trumped that. And of course there is 8 men in the box and we try to run--all damn game long. It was so grose we left with 8 minutes left. The same garbage that Rex did in NY he is doing here. He os a crap head coach. And your right ive always said Woods is a lousy center and well Urbik is a freakin turnstyle. Goodwin is still out with bruised ribs from the third, yes third pre season game and ive had enough of Sammys ****. Damn this team cant get it right. 8 men in the box & we try running it, again and again. Reminds me of the Jauron years.
plenzmd1 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 It's amazing what some people read into #9, isn't it Bill. just explain what"turning your back" means...s that not calling for Rex to be fired? Maybe i slow As i said, saw no mention of that last week
jeffismagic Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Just saw the Kyle Williams post game interview on the bills site. Bills let the crappy reffing get in their heads. Williams still fumiing about the refs without calling them out directly. He said Preston Brown penalty was nonsense as he was trying to get the football. Williams also implied that the Bills reputation has refs looking for anything and they can only get out of this by being "choir boys".
RevWarRifleman Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Does anyone besides me miss Jim Schwartz? What is up with the D linemen who led the league in pass rushing last year dropping into pass coverage? Tyrod Taylor was playing in his 4th NFL game as the starting QB, and I have to ask what happened to the Buffalo run game? You know, the run game that was supposed to lead the NFL in rushing with a run game play book bigger then any other run game play book in the history of the NFL? 24 rushes for 55 yards = a 2.4 yards per rush is embarrassing. then playing from behind Buffalo had to throw 48 times Rex Ryan is starting to look like the Bills *hired the wrong guy. No, you're not the only one. I was starting to ask friends about that after game 2. But, who knows, the season is still young yet.
CSBill Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 If Bradham can make a tackle on Jennings, we might have a different result from today's game. that was the play of the game . . . for all the wording reasons. he should have had him, and then the Giants are punting on 4th down The terrible play calls in the non-scoring red-zone trip (the 2nd one) are an admission of the one weakness of a 6 foot tall QB, they cannot hit the quick slants that you need in that territory—the bodies in front of them are just too big. So the solution is run him outside and hope you can free somebody up, but of course, that didn't happen. It won't go away—he is going to stay undersized, and in this circumstance, that is a big liability.
