Sal to Devin "Did you know you'd be as big a part of the game plan?" Devin: "No, just same approach; stay ready be ready..." Next reporter to Devin, very next question: "Did you know coming in you were going to be this big a part of the game plan?" 1

Not sure they can get there unless we see a more aggressive offense and defense. They haven't asked Allen to do a whole lot the past several games. I wonder if they just expect him to turn it on when the defense struggles again You realize that this is the first real year of the rebuild after clearing the salary cap mess. Making the playoffs under those circumstances is incredible. Just because you declare that we need to win in the post season this year does not diminish what a great job management has done with this team. Pump the breaks just a bit. 2 2 2

Possible... not probable or likely. The Bills are better than both the Browns and Steelers and it it is not close. That is not a guarantee they will win of course.

A 2 and 6 Browns team ? 4 hours ago, Beach said: question: when Knox caught the ball on 3rd down he landed on top of the defender, after he reached was he still short of a 1st down? this happened on the drive that ended in turn over on downs. Yeah, that was a bad spot

Beane and McD made the salary cap mess. Teams go from last to first or at least the playoffs all the time. Playoffs or bust this year. Allen alone will determine if Beane and McD are here in 2021 1 1

Allen alone will determine if Beane and McD are here in 2021 I respect your opinion but strongly disagree. They inherited many long term bad contracts and huge dead cap dollars. I agree that they did cause some issues with releasing some over priced players adding to the problem, but that had to be done. I don't see many last to first story lines this year. The 49er's are doing great, but they had a strong team last year.
davefan66 Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 If it was completed, the scramble by Josh and drop by Brown would have made the highlight reel for years to come. Good win. Have some up issues though. Need to fix the run defense now. It’s become a huge problem. 1

The salary cap mess was made by trading TT, Dareus, and Watkins which accelerated the dead money. McD had cap space to bring back Gilmore and chose not to. But he spent wisely on Hyde and Poyer. I tend to agree that a playoff season this year may even buy both contract extensions. Allen looks like he is at least a capable QB at this point. But if they go 5-11 and Allen regresses next year against a second place schedule they will be in the hot seat. 5 minutes ago, longtimebillsfan said: I respect your opinion but strongly disagree.

It's just a fact. It doesn’t matter now. They chose their path and forfeited the 2018 season. In the end if Allen is a franchise QB one bad season may be worth it.

Brown beat his guy so badly that a throw behind him was a pick 6 possibility. Allen needed a 90% fastball there not the full heater.

I laugh. 1
Elite Poster Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 So why did a bunch of fans leave at halftime? That was weird. I thought we LOVE the cold weather at the Ralph.
skibum Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 The Bills had control of the game the entire day, had no costly blunders, and didn't give up any touchdowns. NEXT. 1
Mango Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 5 hours ago, dakrider said: Another week where the Bills offense goes into a complete funk and then was able to correct it at the end. Singletary had a good day, but Josh Allen is the only thing making this lousy offense go. Swap out Haskins and Allen in this game and the Redskins win it. Haskins didn't play that bad but a couple big avoidable sacks and no real presence on the field imo. I thought that Haskins and Allen played similarly, and if we swapped defenses, the game would have flipped. 3
