transplantbillsfan Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 I couldn't imagine watching this team and thinking Shady was the problem. It's not Shady. Playcalling and our OL are pretty big problems, though.

transplantbillsfan Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 If we can't effectively run the ball we will struggle on offense. I would sign Rod Streeter if healthy and promote brandon reilly. Tate was our best wr today which is all anyone needs to know. Not sure why Andre Holmes is on this team he is terrible. I would cut him now. And our best WR today dropped a nice pass over the middle on a critical 3rd down that would have put us in FG range. Instead, an all-too-familiar drop and no points.
JerseyBills Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Was that the holding call on Dawkins? Because if it was, that was a BS call. Yes! Replay clearly showed no hold. That's a hugeeeee play , unless he got the numbers wrong, total BS call , in a spot where a ref shouldn't have that much influence. I know it's just slow the game down but I wouldn't be opposed to penalty challenges. We had momentum on that drive and that call was just thr dagger

PromoTheRobot Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 I'm here to eat crow. Bengals were terrific on defense. Bills D did all it could. Not even using injuries as an excuse. Bengals were missing players too.

26CornerBlitz Posted October 8, 2017 Author Posted October 8, 2017 @JonScottTV #Bills offense once again failed to pull its weight during great defensive performance. @SalSports and I discuss http://spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/buffalo/bills/2017/10/08/green-s-big-game-rallies-bengals-over-bills-20-16-in-rain @MatthewFairburn Tre White had a tough day against A.J. Green, but Bills vets had his back after the game: http://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/index.ssf/2017/10/buffalo_bills_veterans_rally_around_tre_white_after_aj_greens_big_game.html Jordan Poyer said of Tre White: "He's one of the best corners in the league.":
Magox Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 So, this is a close one. Without offensive weapons, this is how we're going to lose all year. Couldn't make plays when we had so many turnovers. This kind of loss is on Beane. That's why it is a half tank. The defense failed us on the last two drives by Cincinnati. The supposed strength of our team got outmuscled by a weak Bengals offensive line. Emotionally and mentally they did not get up for the Bengals. That's how you get out played physically. That's on McDermott.
Mark Vader Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 As bad as this loss feels, image how worse it will feel if Deshaun Watson lights up KC tonight. McDermott may be forced to start Taylor the rest of the year to make sure they'll have a top five pick to right the wrong of not picking Watson (if he is the real deal as it appears so far). I will not feel bad at all. I've loved what I've seen from Tre'Davious White and I'm thrilled that we have 2 first round picks in next years draft.
thebandit27 Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Honestly this was basically what I expected Cincinnati is a pretty good team, and Buffalo was banged up & coming off a huge win. Hopefully we'll get healthier during the bye week and be able to re-focus against TB.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 9, 2017 Author Posted October 9, 2017 What they're saying: Bills lament missed opportunities in loss to Cincinnati Sean McDermott, Tyrod Taylor, Jordan Poyer, Brandon Tate and other discuss Sunday's loss and where the team is headed after the bye week. Top 3 things we learned from Bills-Bengals Buffalo's secondary continue to rack up takeaways, Nick O'Leary fills a void at tight end and Stephen Hauschka hits a career mark.
Mark Vader Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 It's not Shady. Playcalling and our OL are pretty big problems, though. Exactly. LeSean McCoy gives his all on game day. He is not an issue.
LABILLBACKER Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Still winless in games I've attended. Sorry guys That's it...we're cutting you off.
CanadianFan Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Oh good we are at the 'fire everyone' part of a loss. It's not fire everyone, but just recognizing credit where it's due. Yes it was nice they got 2 extra draft picks with the trades. But signing no one else, and not being able to land Maclin, is hurting us now. If we had sammy or Maclin, we'd have won either the Carolina or this one for sure. You mean how Bellicheat had his Patriots up to lose two home games already this year? You are going to take this year's 3-2 record to argue that Belichek is a bad coach? Look at his track record. His teams always beat up on losing teams after they beat big opponents. They don't have emotional let downs. We did here after we beat 2 super bowl contenders.
Just in Atlanta Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 From one extreme to the other: We go from a blow hard to this fluff. He didn't say one single thing of substance. Nothing. These press conference are a complete waste of time. McD's post game PC just finished. Dude says absolutely nothing. Maybe that is his prerogative, but then why have the PC in the first place?
HappyDays Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Look what a change in OC can do to an offense. Lynn did the same thing for us last year.
