DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted September 12, 2019 Posted September 12, 2019 (edited) Morse: There's still 'a lot to improve on' after Week 1 win over Jets Morse on the offense's Week 1 performance against the Jets: "I think there's a lot to improve on, but I think every team is saying that after Week 1. It's exciting with the opportunity we have and the potential we have, but there's the few too many mistakes that put us in a rut early on. I feel like you can't be complacent with where we are, but we really love the group of guys we have, and we're proud to play with each other. That's an exciting thing to do. "In the first game of the season, defenses are throwing stuff at you that you haven't seen before. You're so amped up to play the game that by the second half, you kind of already hit a groove. That was hugely important, and I'd say that our performance in the second half was much better than in the first." Morse on Allen's performance in the win over the Jets: "The biggest thing was just his poise; the way he carried himself. The highs weren't too high and the lows weren't too low for Josh. When you come into the huddle and there's some parts of the game where stuff is not going well and momentum is not going your way, it's how you compose yourself. The way that Josh composed himself in the huddle was infectious. All great quarterbacks can do that. They come in the huddle and no matter what happens, they find a way. Even by them just relaying the player information, the way they do it, they way they handle themselves in there, it's infectious. I was extremely impressed with how he handled that, and he really did bring us along on that calm and collected second half." Edited September 12, 2019 by DaBillsFanSince1973 2

I think we can all agree that this is an important game to lose. Can we still go undefeated if we lose to an NFC team? I'd like a perfect season for once.

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted September 12, 2019 Posted September 12, 2019 PFT: Florio & Smith pick Bills........... Bills at Giants MDS’s take: Everyone is talking about Eli Manning and Daniel Jones, but the Giants’ defense is the reason they’re going to have an ugly season. The Bills should be able to move the ball effectively against them. MDS’s pick: Bills 30, Giants 17. Florio’s take: The Bills can start the season with a MetLife Stadium sweep. It helps that both teams who play there currently aren’t very good. Florio’s pick: Bills 20, Giants 17. 1

But as Bills fans, how comfortable are we at the start of the 4th quarter with... say... a 21 point lead? I've seen this team fall apart too much. It's a mistake when teams change their gameplans when they're ahead. Just ask the Falcons. Edited September 12, 2019 by transplantbillsfan

I tend to agree, but McDermott has gone into a shell pretty much every time the Bills have had a second half lead and I don't believe they've blown one yet, although there have been some close calls. With some teams, it seems to work...

With some teams, it seems to work... One thing that I'll way about McDermott is that I don't believe he's at all married to one approach. My feeling on going into a shell is that he does it when he believes that it's the best (or, in the case of the 2017 team, only) way to win a game. If he believes that the team needs to keep scoring or moving the ball, he'll do that too.
