Billsfan1972 Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 Monday the weather was not good & can agree it did have an affect. When you see rain on the camera, you know it will be a factor. Sunday weather looks fine and yes it is the Jets, but the Bills need to get back to 300 yards passing and establish a running game. Yes pretty obvious, but important after the prior two weeks & the Pats coming up. So yes I want the Bills to bury the Jets, but hope they score some points so the Offense needs to produce & move the ball. I did a quick review as I have just been so down on the Bills Offense 2017-19 and note the Bills averaged 18.4 points/game (28th, 30th & 24th in the league over the 3 years) & 310 yards of offense a game. For context the league averaged 22.6 points/game and Mahomes in his two seasons 2018/19 averaged 303 passing. It's time for Bills fans to expect top 10, not mediocrity. 2 1
CaptnCoke11 Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 Chiefs certainly has no issues racking up huge yardage on offense in the “bad” weather. 2

I am pretty sure they would love to put up 50 on the Bi Planes. But they only need to win by one so just play a solid all around game and don't force it.

BillsMafi$ Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 Yeah the whole “bad weather” bs don’t work. Brady would come in here and Carve buffalo time after time no matter what the weather was 2

Sure I can blame some on inaccuracy, some on drops, coaching, playcalling....... This is really an important week to score points & throw for 300+ yards (& Jets would need to wait 'til 2021 for the next meeting).
BillnutinHouston Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 Let's face it, defenses have learned that the way to play Allen is to sit in soft zones and make him be patient and give him no big plays. Daboll and Allen need an effective counter to that strategy. A solid running game would certainly help. 2
njbuff Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 It doesn't matter what the Bills do against the Jets. It matters what they do against good D's. And so far during McDermott's tenure as HC, time and again this offense gets shut down. Period. Good teams will simply have their safeties deep against this Bills offense and they have trouble moving the ball. It's been proven time and again what I have just said and why should any of us have any confidence whatsoever that this team can walk into KC, Pittsburgh, Tennessee or Baltimore and score more than 17 points in a playoff game?
Royale with Cheese Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 I'll be concerned for sure if Allen only throws for 290 yards even if he has 3 TD's. It's just not 300.... who you tryna fool with that 290 bull****? 1 7
Straight Hucklebuck Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 What does this Coaching staff do to address the putrid 3rd quarter?

SoCal Deek Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 None of this matters if our defense can’t get off the field. 2
teef Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 you're just going to keep getting these every time you needlessly mention a 300 yard game: 1

Seattle's defense is just as bad but they are 5-0. They have allowed two teams to throw for over 400, two more for 300 & only the Vikings were under 300 (and they were trying to protect a lead and have a balanced offense).
BillsFan692 Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 Does anything they do against the Jets even matter? I mean ill be cheering along for the W but its not like it will matter if we "look good" against the jets... On second thought, we should all just be praying for that outcome.

I enjoy QB's throwing for 300 yards. Makes for the most part fun games. This game I do think 300 has meaning coming off the 2 losses. You go and watch that McD, 17-13 barnburner.....

Allens problem wasn't the weather either, he was just inaccurate as he was in his first 2 seasons. thats nothing new, thats just who he is as a QB.
oldmanfan Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 The OP should not be allowed to post. He last year indicated he'd rather have the Bills lose so long as they passed for over 300 yards. If you actively advocate for the Bills to lose I would suggest your posting rights should be suspended. 1

I have said it plenty of times that watching the Bills was not particularly fun with the 30, 29 & 24th ranked offenses the past three year (and in the bottom half of the leaugue for 20 years). Knowing they couldn't/wouldn't throw for 300 with McD wanting to grind out 17-13 wins playing between the 20's and hoping his D would win a turnover battels was not a winning recipe and heck made for very boring football. Watch any other team with a .500 record those 3 season, and yes the Bills were a hard watch. I watch Football to get excited. I am a Bills fan and seldom watched a fun exciting football game 2017-19.
SoTier Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 I look at it this way. The Bills are not quite as good as most of us thought they were and got their butts handed to them twice in a row by two of the very best teams in the AFC. Not good, but not a disaster. However, the Jests are just the patsies they need to get back on track. They need to dominate the Jests on both sides of the ball. Allowing the Jests to make this game close, even though divisional games often tend to be close even when teams are mismatched, would raise red flags about the team IMO. Losing to them would be a disaster and an embarrassment. 1 1
