thebandit27 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 not feeling great about this, titans coming off bye, they're at home, and seem to be playing better than people thought they would. more film out on how to attack bills defense, and limit TT. Bills lose 26-17 Not sure how they're playing better than people thought they would. They're 1-2, with a win over the worst team in football and a loss to the 1-3 Browns. They're allowing 25.7 points/game on defense ,which is 22nd in the NFL. They've fallen behind 14-0 in the 1st quarter of each of their two losses. Again, I'm not saying cake-walk win here; I'm simply saying that the idea that Tennessee is better than the supposed numbers tell is altogether misleading.
BuffaloMatt Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 This board is funny. After a week in which the Bills dominated the second half but shot themselves in the foot or else they'd be 3-1, suddenly Rex doesn't know how to use his defensive personnel, Roman's game plans are crappy, and the Bills will get shredded by a rookie QB and lose to one of the worst teams in the league. Got it. Great Post

A missed 2 point conversion after a well engineered last minute drive missed sending them into OT against the division leader. Mariotta early lead for ORoY after most pundits predicted best case it would take him years to adjust to NFL. We've played one more game and have one more win, big whoop.

By that same logic, Buffalo is a last minute TD + 2-point conversion from beating the defending Superbowl champions, and a penalty-meltdown away from beating the Giants. Sorry, but 1-2 with the lone win coming against the worst team in the NFL doesn't amount to being better than expected.

Acting like we're somehow superior to them is not justified That's the same "division leader" the Bills blew out on opening day, right? Sorry, not buying your logic. The Bills are a better team and should win this game handily, even down two of their best playmakers. Of course as we all know, "should" and "will" are very different things, and the Bills team that destroyed Indy and Miami, not the one who struggled against the Giants, needs to show up. I think they will. Bills 37 - 13

Big difference between a failed 2 point conversion only and a) a non-existent TD drive or b) a series of penalties throughout an entire game. Wow, that was a doozy of a post you dropped there.
YoloinOhio Posted October 9, 2015 Author Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) The Bills blow the doors off an opponent --> the opponent obviously sucks because they got annhilated so it was not impressive and an embarrassing win! Another team loses to same opponent --> they lost to the "division leader" and it was close at the end so it was obviously an impressive loss! Edited October 9, 2015 by YoloinOhio

Max997 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) Looking at this game you think there is no chance the Bills lose it and that has me concerned. Rex is forcing his system on the defense mainly the Dline and it just isn't working. Kyle Williams lining up at DE instead of clogging the middle is just stupid. Titans 17 Bills 13 Edited October 9, 2015 by Max997
thebandit27 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Misquote much ? No, he didn't. Misquote much? No, I didn't. Here, I'll help you out, since your memory appears to be failing: not feeling great about this, titans coming off bye, they're at home, and seem to be playing better than people thought they would. more film out on how to attack bills defense, and limit TT. Bills lose 26-17 "better than people thought they would" is the literal definition of "performing above expectations", which is what I said, right here: Sort of like saying that winning one game against the worst team in football is performing above expectations, right? #walkedintothatone If you're hoping to salvage your assertion by saying that losing by a failed 2-point conversion to an 0-2 team is somehow exceeding expectations, well, I don't think you'll find too many NFL coaches, players, or fans that would agree.

Rex is forcing his system on the defense mainly the Dline and it just isn't working. Kyle Williams lining up at DE instead of clogging the middle is just stupid. Titans 17 Bills 13 Good grief...how is it not working? They limited the Colts to 14, the Dolphins to 14, the 24 they allowed to the Giants came on (a) a short-field after a turnover, (b) a drive consisting of 3 back-breaking defensive penalties, and © one long play that happened on a busted tackle. That's not the system; that's execution...that isn't even a debate. So the "system isn't working" comments come down to the NE game.
