I would say that the Bills win against Tennessee on the road was "close" to a signature win. We got some breaks and did face Mariotta, but that's a good football team. That was probably the key victory if you look at the Bills season in totality right now. 2

You know the refs will be on high alert after the national boning Dallas received yesterday. I feel like they will make a couple horrendous calls on Buffalo to wipe out big plays. And i am OK with penalties called that are legit. That was a week ago. I don't know about you, but life is short. McDermott has this team coached to live in the here and now. The Bills are like that quiet guy...don't f...with him.

One important thing that we have to remember about this Bills squad, is that they cannot afford to give a *****, and they show it. I mean, they epitomize the classic nameless and over achieving unit that we have tirelessly seen before. In this case though, I strongly sense a very personal and determined unit unconcerned with accolades. These are tough guys united and these mofo's watch each others back and want to win. 1

Great mouthfeel, but just on one side, on account of the stroke.” This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen, just marvelous 1 1

I doubt that they care less about the Cowboys. The Cowboys are another inflated team that has not faced a team like the Bills. The Bills are tight and play team football....I look for a lot of confusion and frustration from the Cowboys. Bills win. The Bills are better disciplined and tougher than the Cowboys in a way that works. The Bills are silent and methodical. I am very impressed with this Bills team. I will be impressed if they can win one of the next 4 games... 1

Too damn stubborn. The Bills remind me of one those faceless teams that have a face. They are going to win 11-12 games, and we will say how? I haven't seen an anything like it in awhile. The 88-89 team was predictable...this team remains an enigma. 1

The Bills are silent and methodical. I am very impressed with this Bills team. You are right in that the Bills are better disciplined but the Bills do lack some critical areas of talent whereas the Cowboys don't have the same massive talent deficiencies (although their roster does have some smaller issues.) I have my concerns about this team's ability to hang with better more talented teams. The lack of a dynamic receiver opposite Brown will be an issue against better defenses. The lack of a prime time pass rusher will be a a massive issue against elite offenses and I still don't trust the run defense. I also am not super trusting of Bojo and Haush either on special teams. I think by the time the Bills get through this 4 game stretch we will know a lot about this team and just where they stand as an NFL team and how much they have to improve to compete on a serious level. 2

I don"t have a clue how the Bills are 8-3 at this point. I do not want to be a a McDermott apologists, but he has a lot to do with this. This Bills team as a whole, has got to know that at certain times that they are over matched...yet they win. Tell you what, this team is close and they are playing for their lives.

And i am OK with penalties called that are legit. I saw on Get Up this morning how Belichick sent Riveron tape advising him of the "tripping" by Cowboys linemen. He reminded the officials of this before the game. So, it was called twice in the game even though it never happened. Makes me sick. 1

We have tickets for the game. Friday will be our family Thanksgiving dinner. This will be fun. I would love to see them win. They are playing better the past few weeks, yes the competition has not been strong but the progress the Bills have made is undeniable. McD must get them ready. Play fearless and smart. Don’t let the bright lights distract. A win against Dallas will provide the Bills with credibility and confidence. I think they can do it. Try to find the Pinto Kenny tailgate. They don't bring the car but Kenny is at every game. 1

Quite often, the Bills are over matched, but they have found themselves forced to really look at themselves and play a team game. I would take a band of resolute, determined. disciplined and tough players any day...my uncles always told me to be careful of the quiet guy.
Richard Noggin Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 2 hours ago, billsfan89 said: You are right in that the Bills are better disciplined I've seen a handful of these comments, that the Bills are somehow better disciplined than the Cowboys. Some quick and possibly reliable (?) internet research reveals this claim to be only partially true. https://www.footballdb.com/stats/penalties.html Buffalo has 85 (9th) recorded penalties for 669 yards (15th), while Dallas has 82 (14th) for 773 (5th). Buffalo is second-worst for false starts AND Offside, behind only Houston and Oakland, respectively. Boneheaded pre-snap stuff. Just brutal. Offensive holding and roughing the passer (to a lesser extent) are statistically issues as well. So Dallas has racked up more yards, and have a ton of penalties categorized as "other" (which I don't see an explanation of). But much cleaner offensive execution. Seems like a push, depending on what those "other" penalties (Dallas is 4th-worst and Buffalo is 4th-best here) are.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 19 hours ago, Giuseppe Tognarelli said: This could be a big game for the trajectory of the team going forward. To win the first of this gauntlet and prove that we can do well in big games I think would signal a turning point for the franchise. But we have to be realistic. We might not be there yet. The Cleveland loss was the turning point. Thats when McDermott told them to play Fearless and it turned the switch on for the players to play aggressive and not tight. Also made the coaches to go uptempo and blitz more.
CorkScrewHill Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 A couple of interesting tidbits 1) Buffalo's Defense only played 50 snaps on Sunday to Dallas Defense's 70 snaps .. this late in the year and with a short week you would think that may have an impact if we can keep our offense on the field. 2) This is an interesting article from CBS sports that details some of the game mismanagement for the Cowboys against New England. If we can get ahead early .. they could be looking over their shoulders and start making worse decisions. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/sorting-the-sunday-pile-week-12-cowboys-at-a-crossroads-with-jason-garrett-jerry-jones-situation/ 5
