The whole team (or a lot of it) went to the post Malone concert in Buffalo earlier this year - maybe he got the shirt there 

 

Oh, that’s cool.  But I’m still feeling it was probably a deliberate choice to wear it today both to the field and post-game.

 

 

Evidently the Denver OL found a sure-fire way to motivate Shaq Lawson

 

 

 

LOL at Reid Ferguson.  Nails it.

That’s honestly really odd. I was taken back by how disrespectful and Genuinely uninformed their media was.   

 

Lived in Denver for years and "taken aback" generally describes my reaction to that fan base. There are lots of sports media bubbles, but theirs is one of the weirdest I've experienced.

Yeah, this, any update?

 

I sit behind the Bills bench and saw Foster running along the sidelines after going down, so based on that it doesn't appear to be a major injury.

Just a fact, NY Jets are averaging 79.1 yards/game in rush defense that is good for #1 in the NFL.

In the modern NFL I’ll take a dominant pass D over run D any day.

I hope so.

 

While not a big contributor to the O he’s a big contributor as a gunner on ST. That’s lost on fans, I think, when discussing his season. If Duke wants to supplant Foster and be active he better start making contributions to ST.

Ask Denver if they wouldn't have enjoyed a decent Run D today. Or maybe the Bills were just that good? They did have the luxury of not having to worry about B. Allen carving them up.

One game sample size. Yeah, as the Bills D has shown, a suspect run D will occasionally cost you but you’re better off in the long run with a stout pass D.

Does anyone know what happened on that JA interception today? There was no replay of the play.
 

Bad read? Bad throw? Wind?

Looked like it just sailed on him or slipped out of his hand at the wrong launch point. Couldn’t have been a bad read as there wasn’t a Bills WR remotely near the pass. Fluke INT

Interesting. I just read an article post game on mile high report. The writer called the loss embarrassing and said the Vikings loss was to a dark horse Super Bowl team. He then called the Bills “ overrated” lol. Who the heck is overrating the Bills ? I’ve yet to see it by any major media source.

Don't know if it is one or the other, you need both. If you can shut down the run and force a team into being one-dimensional your pass defense reaps the benefits. It helps too if the offense can get up on them early to force a team into thinking pass only to catch-up.

 

When the Bills were sporting a great pass defense, but started to get gashed against the run it impacted our defense as a whole. Unable to get off the field, having to commit our safeties to the box, leaving our secondary exposed, poor field position for our offense if the D did get a stop with less offensive chances due to poor TOP.

 

If you can run on a team that has a high-powered offense you keep that offense cooling its heels on the sideline.

 

We can agree to disagree, but IMO I don't think a good run defense is a fad that has gone out of style.

Any time we looked bad as a defense the entire season we were being gashed in the run game.

John Brown is always good for a post game breakdown of a big play. Good or bad

Great now that he told all we are never going to complete another deep ball!

? “I bet I show you”

 

“First of all, they were talking junk,’’ said Lawson after he pulled on a sweatshirt reading “Buffalo vs. Everybody.’’

“That’s my thing, I talk junk. You can’t out-junk me. I like that stuff. To start the game, I think it was No. 60 (center Connor McGovern), he goes ‘I haven’t remembered you since college.’ I said, ‘I bet I show you.’ ’’

I bet Lawson’s comeback line was a lot more colorful than that. You don’t start a war of one-liners with Rodney Dangerfield and get “I bet I show you.’’

And this is what makes Frank Gore and this Bills team special:
