Billsfan1972 Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 Look at all the points scored. Pathetic. Since when does offense matter? Why is anyone interested in watching a glorified pinball game....... I'm sure McDermott could have coached both teams and the score would have been 12-9. Then we'd see some TV ratings!!!!!! 1

CodeMonkey Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 There is logic behind the sarcasm. The NFL is all about money. Most of their revenue comes from TV contracts. TV contracts go up and down depending upon ratings. Non hard core football fans will like a shootout like last night and not like 12-9 games. Do the math.
Billsfan1972 Posted October 15, 2018 Author Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) Just having fun to those who preach D, D, D and lament what's happening in the NFL. Oh and to those too that get all upset when I post asking for a 300 yard passing game...... 2 minutes ago, CodeMonkey said: There is logic behind the sarcasm. The NFL is all about money.

Yes tongue firmly planted in cheek.... no one is upset. we realize that offense is terrible, and would like to see significant improvement as well. i have no idea why you think you have the market in that opinion. the only difference is you're obnoxious about it. 1
zow2 Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 It sure helps to have quality QB play. But it's also cool to see coaches that are innovators, not flat out copy cats. Are the Bills progressive or do anything innovative? Maybe on defense they run some interesting schemes. But on offense we are running the same stuff as the league has been running in the 1980's.

PayDaBill$ Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) Yeah terrible the way each team put up half the points it took us to score in six games in one night Edited October 15, 2018 by PayDaBill$
CommonCents Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 It was garbage. The Pats were calling running plays from their own side of the field so they could run down the clock and kick and the fg. They had three timeouts, never used one of them IIRC. Playing defense is officially a joke. That same offense will drop 40 on a good Bills defense because the way the game is now.

I’m pretty sure most fans would give their left nut to see have an offense like NE OR KANSAS CITY

And basic like sweeps and all that can be added more. Baffling.
metzelaars_lives Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 It was a great game. But I just like any game where the outcome is in doubt throughout. I prefer a 24-21 game with great defense too but there is no denying that last night was an instant classic.

If they drop 40 on us, it will be because our defense will be exhausted from going back into the field again and again after another turnover or 3-and-out.

Damn, I wish I could smoke a doobie to help me decide if this is real or not. LOL. glorified pinball and no defense. The Colts Jets managed similar !!!
cba fan Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 KC D is NFL ex-lax. Can't stop ****. 3rd and 10 was a legit running play last night for Pats. Two INT's by Mahomes cost them a win.

Interesting when people show contempt for something they can't have and in this case it's a high powered offense.

Then we'd see some TV ratings!!!!!! the most interesting part is watching brady these days. they ask almost nothing of him in terms of ability. most of his throws were uncontested and under 10 yards. the longer throws were to college open WRs. scheme and personnel. the pats do it like no other.

I think they called one to set up the winning FG at the end gronk destroyed that man like he was 10 pounds of styrofoam
