Ask Charger fans how Rivers does in the biggest spots. Perennial choke artist. Expand The three passes to the sideline at the end of the game were atrocious. There was no actual effort or play design. Not sure if it’s on Rivers or Reich, but 3 plays in a row where you just sail the ball out of bounds, is unacceptable in the NFL. They needed 11 for a first down, and maybe 15-17 yards for a FG? The Bills Defense did a good job i suppose of defending the sidelines, but if you’re the QB, you’ve got to do something better than that. 1
JoshAllenReceipts Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 Rivers cost the Colts 14 points yesterday. Missed throw on 4th and Goal, missed throw on 3rd and 7 before the shanked FG. Had 1st and 10 at the Bills 46 yard line, needing just 10 more yards for FG range...and he doesn't move them any closer.

The Bills would have lost the game of not for a couple of wide open drops that would have put this team behind in the score. This defense needs to fix it's problems ASAP. Expand They sure weren't playing up to their capabilities at times it looked like they were confused as to what call to make . I saw Edmonds more than once looking very confused before the snap like he just didn't know what to call need to get that fixed or it will be a short play off run . 1

dma0034 Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 Everyone remember the 49ers game? Where Allen destroyed the 9ers because they got no pressure. That's exactly what happened in this game except Rivers isn't Allen. Bills #1 prioirity in the offseason will be a DE. No pressure at all on Rivers. If you blitz he does a quick release to a WR, if you don't blitz he has all day to throw. This entire game was the Colt's best unit (OLine) dominating the Bills worst unit (DLine). They controlled the clock because of it and limited Allen. Except for GB and NO I don't know if you see an OLine that dominant. The Browns probably have the best OLine remaining 1

Playoffs? Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 I posted in another thread, but probably more appropriate in this one: Some of you will hate this take... but I think our defense was ‘regaining its form’ in the late part of the season because of who we were playing. Look at the final several games where we won pretty convincingly... I wouldn’t call any of them offensive powerhouses: SF without their QB and Kittle, NE w/Cam and no one, Miami w/Tua, Pittsburgh w/injuries and sputtering offensive play, Denver.... Maybe a false sense of security. Our D did not fare well against strong offenses (even in wins): Tennessee, KC and Arizona beat us. Seattle hung 34 on us (thank you for that win, Josh). Rams were a questionable PI call from a comeback win after total defensive meltdown in second half. Good news is we’re finding ways to come out with wins! But in my opinion our defense needs some major help, mostly on the line, so we can stop having to put all of the pressure on Josh. The games continue to get tougher now. Go Bills! 2

Expand 1st and 10 at the Bills 46 yard line. Rivers needs 10 yards to get into FG range.

Expand we played some pretty bad offenses (Niners, Broncos, Fish, Pats) at end of season to make our D look better than they really are. I worry about our D. Running D is bad, lack of pass rush. No way we would be able to beat KC with the D that was out there yesterday.

Irish Dave Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) I'm 50; I went through the 90s teams and this win feels like the Bills AFC championship win against Denver. We won 10-7. Our amazing No Huddle was stopped all day and we only won because of a Defensive TD (Carlton Baily I think?). Just like then, I feel strangely unfulfilled about the win; probably because it was a win - and a win is a win; and all that; and it's playoff football and bla bla bla - but it was not a convincing win like we've had the past few weeks. If that FG goes in, and/or the 4th and goal is a TD, that's 10 points the Colts SHOULD have scored. The Defense had it's good and bad moments yes - but it was WHEN the bad moments happened that hurt. Right after we scored, we let THEM march down and score. Twice. Those are the drives where you really put teams away. You score and then you Stop them on the next drive; you don't let them answer. But we let them. Twice. We let them keep coming. Yes, of course there are reasons. My wife can't understand whey I'm not super happy about the win; and these are the reasons why! Because being totally honest, we got lucky a lot of the time. Edited January 10, 2021 by Irish Dave 1
