Bills D in 2nd half reminded me of the Chargers game in 2018 where they got shredded in 1st half then figured it out...

If this defense is going to be good, everything is back on the table here for this season. To me winning with a pass heavy offense and Swiss cheese d,is not sustainable. I hope today was what the defense is going to be like going forward. That is something we can take week to week.

Yeah...the D got shredded in that game and also the first half of the game next week against the Chargers.

 

Maybe because Nate kept giving them the ball on our side of the 50....

The past three weeks, the bills have gotten dominated in losses twice, didn't score a TD against one of the worst teams in NFL history, and struggled to beat the jets winning by 8 (the lowest margin of victory by any team the jets have faced this season. All while be held to under 20 points in each game. 

 

There isn't much to be optimistic about after the game today. But it's a win, and we have another shot to get things turned around this week in a big he against the pats. 

 

Division games are sometimes tough regardless of records. Just go look back at some of the ugly games the Kelly era SB teams played against New England...wins are wins. That's all that counts at the end of the day whether it was by 1 point or 50.

I don't care where they got the ball, if you give up 26 first downs like they did it isn't going to be a good day.

You mean the Nate Peterman 5 pick game?

 

 

I think that they mean the second game of 2018(The Vontae Davis halftime retirement game), where the defense was respectable in the second half after a disasterous first half and week 1 against the Ravens.   After that they played pretty decent for the rest of that year.

“Figuring out” the worst offense in the NFL is not really anything to be proud of. 

 

Excellent second half.  They made the half time adjustments they supposedly cant figure out.  Second half was dedicated to the hater fan base.  Go Bills!

More than decent...the Chargers rolled up 28 points and 300 yards in the 1st half and the Bills held them to 3 points(off a turnover deep in Bills territory) and 49 yards in the 2nd half. And no it wasn't because the Chargers just decided to run the ball.

Hard to say if it was more the defense stepping up of the Jets regressing back to their typical level of inept offense  Regardless seems the Bills O goes up and down the field against the jets but always seem to struggle to get points.

Bills bad games against the Chargers just kind of all melt together...

This game was nothing to be proud of.  The amount of money we have sunk into this D and the results in the last 3 games is embarrassing.  Not to mention once again this is the 0-6 for Jets we are talking about.  If the D truly turned the corner we would not have seen Frank Gore look like a rookie running the ball today in the first half of this game today.  Sorry the D is still nowhere even close to being a shut down unit you need to go deep into the playoffs with.  

The wake up call will be next week against the Pats.  If we give them any life on offence then you know that our D is just a mirage.

You think it looks good one moment from a far away perspective but when you get up and close and really look it over it you realize it's just your mind playing tricks on you.

That is truly the way this D has looked and all year long, no matter what you do they can't fix it with the personal they have on the current roster.

So holding a team to 10 points and under 200 yards of offense is something to be embarrassed about? Good to know....guess we need to shut every team out.

Bills D turnaround was stunning in 2nd half and it revolved around bringing pressure...Tre White even came on a blitz up the middle once and they got the sack...

 

It reminded me of 2018 where the Bills D got shredded for 6 quarters by the Ravens and Chargers but then in the second half of the Charger game they completely shut them down.

 

Hoping the Bills figured something similar out because the Jets looked inept in the 2nd half...4 total yards, and 2 INTs and 1 first down. A bunch of sacks for us too as we finished with 6 in the game.

Also had numerous 3 and outs.

 

I would much rather have this D attack and get burnt a few times than sit back and let teams pick us apart. Hope they take notes and do this more often.

 

Suddenly the D Line looks pretty good as they made Darnold run for his life almost every dropback...maybe they can't get there with 4 but bring 5 and the D Line is making things happen..

 

So agree.  A passive defense is like playing not to lose.  In general that does not work unless you have a 21 point lead at the 2 minute warning.

Im getting real sick of these kinds of posts. Bills Defense adjusted and played well, and the best you can muster is some debbie downer troll post? Get a life

 

It's just a dose of reality.  The Jets suck!  The Bills defense did what they should have done today.

 

I'll be impressed if they can keep it going over these next few weeks.
