But DeAndre Hopkins is a stud - what can you do? strangely enough i am not too riled up about the loss. Pay a corner who can cover him.

To lose like that at last second after comeback is the worst I've felt as a fan since forever To each his own, I suppose. I would rather see my Bills play a competitive football game where they're in it all the way against a good team and the D makes an outstanding play to give us a chance then the O goes down and gets 7 on a brilliant drive against outstanding defense. They made one more play. "Some days you da windshield, somedays you da bug". 3

We'll just go down and pick one from the "top corner" tree, shall we? Until that last play, Nuk had his 2nd lowest completion % for the season and was well under 100 yds. Beasley was outplaying him. He made a play on 3 of our best players. Give the man props. Could they have all played it better, Yeah. Is he the kind of guy who's gonna yap about it also yeah, which is vexing but who he is. ("Gracious" thy name ain't Hopkins.) He made the play so he's entitled to talk. How about this, pay a DE who finishes the play and a DT who hustles over quicker and Murray never gets the chance to set himself and throw it. 12 hours ago, RaoulDuke79 said: Can we implement a rule of no new threads until a few hours after the games are over?

Heels20X6 Posted November 16, 2020 Posted November 16, 2020 Can we talk about that 24 yard dart he threw to John Brown that was negated by yet another dumb penalty by the offense? Kid's a playmaker. He's Brett Favre 2.0 and he's gonna throw some unfortunate picks. But when the chips are down, and he gets the ball last, he's going to finish. 6
Da webster guy Posted November 16, 2020 Posted November 16, 2020 Bright side: We are 7-3 and control our down destiny down the stretch. We just lost on a freak catch by probably the surest handed receiver to ever play (Nuk had ZERO drops on a 115 catch season in 2018) Knox has more drops than that in warmups. Our offense did enough to win the game, including another awesome last minute touchdown drive. We will roll out of this bye week healthy and ready to pop the Chargers and Niners and be 9-3. 1
ghostwriter Posted November 16, 2020 Posted November 16, 2020 Well y’know, Allen isn’t even in his prime yet.. he’s been very good this year but we haven’t even really seen what he can do yet.. patience.. 1
Do The Reich Thing Posted November 16, 2020 Posted November 16, 2020 1 hour ago, Scott7975 said: Josh was so bad that he over came penalties galore, a terrible run game that Daboll kept calling putting them behind the sticks, and a dropped perfect setup to Singletary and threw what should have been the game winner. I agree he overcame some things, but he also was not sharp yesterday. The two picks were on him and we went 6 straight possessions in the second half that were absolute trash. I love Josh, but he’s not safe from critique when he’s off.
Buffalo_Stampede Posted November 16, 2020 Posted November 16, 2020 (edited) That was a big game. Good players on both teams. Josh had ups and downs but balled out IMO. I felt better about Josh after this game then any other game. This is the type of game that makes elite QB's. He'll have many more Hopefully. Tom Brady isn't a star QB because he dominated the Buffalo Bills for 20 years, if you get my point. Josh made plays and will be better after this game, even with losing. There are plays he wants back for sure but he showed he showed the moment wasn't too big. Edited November 16, 2020 by Buffalo_Stampede

Good luck paying for that DE/DT next year if the NFL doesn't increase the salary cap, so I guess it comes down to the draft. Edited November 16, 2020 by Julio Hopkins
Jerry Jabber Posted November 16, 2020 Posted November 16, 2020 Singletary’s drop on the screen pass, Dane Jackson’s injury, Bojorquez’s muffed punt, several players on defense tested positive for COVID19, a whole lot went wrong for the Bills. One or two of those things don’t happen and it’s possible the Bills come away with the win. The play Hopkins made was probably the highlight of the year for the NFL, it just sucks that it happened to be against the Bills. I’d rather that play happen in the regular season vice the playoffs.
DCofNC Posted November 16, 2020 Posted November 16, 2020 16 hours ago, Coach Tuesday said: And it’s partially because Gabe Davis is too passive a player. Doesn’t fight for the ball and doesn’t work the refs. He seems kind of easy to defend. Still a 4th round rookie, not sure exactly what you expected from him, but he’s played very well.

That was embarrassing I don't know how a Bills fan can watch that and not be riled up. What a joke. Well, some of us are football fans and we see a bigger picture. McDermott and Allen and others are right - it should not have come down to that last play.

Replacement players not stepping up. Old reliable players no so reliable anymore. We're giving up nearly 30 points every week. I've never liked Leslie but I think Clappy calls most of the shots and Murray made us look foolish today. If I told you the Bill's offense would score 70 points in these last 2 games you would say wow!!. Then I would tell you in those two same games the defense would give up 66 points you would say wow!!!.

Yesterday's game was the first in a LONGTIME, if not forever, that I felt like we were 90% likely to score a TD on our final possession. The options were basically Josh is either going to throw a TD or Pick. There was no way Josh was not completing a pass beyond the sticks unless the DB made a good play on the ball. Sucks that we lost but that is an amazing feeling to have for once.
