Not to forget the efforts of his supporting cast - on that one drive before the half, Davis' 2 toe drag catches were briliiant. Combined with Diggs' usual 100+ yard game and key catches by the as-yet injured Beas and we have a winning combination. 1

Thanks for being a classy guest. The Colts are excellent and it seems like they have a very bright future. I’d put money on the Bills facing them in the playoffs again in the coming years. Feel free to stick around as long as you want. This remains a very active forum all offseason. One of the best — if not THE best — NFL message boards in existence. We can always use more good posters! 3 1

I have no problem playing that type of defense, but you have to be able to get off the field on 3rd down and/or create some negative plays/turnovers. We did none of that against Indy. They bled clock, we let them. They needed to score fast, we let them. No turnovers forced. No sacks. Barely any QB pressures. Now, some of this is our defense had a bad day. Some of it is Indy was a bad matchup for this defense. Some of it was Indy/Rivers executed at a high level for 90% of the game. This is spot on. This is basically our MO this year. Look at the AZ game. Look at NE game one. We basically executed this, went up early, and only blew it via the Hail Murray. Both those games were closer becuase of offensive woes. But if the offense is on or we can get a couple more big plays, we are winners. This is why we dont need to "stop the run" etc.. Key is always 3rd downs , turnovers, pressure..... Id add with this game, an added key will also be avoiding chunk gains...hail murray or LJ big runs Edited January 12, 2021 by RichRiderBills 1

Little worried/anxious about this one. Your Colts played a hell of a game btw. They had the perfect game plan and it worked well. They could have very well won that game. 1

Even when getting seemingly dominated, keep your cool, minimize mistakes, make critical plays on offense, great in-game coaching and pull off the close games" 2

Be curious what you thought about the 4th down pass. Everyone I have talked to so far would have kicked the FG. Your concerns about them disappearing were not founded. The Colts played an entire 60m game. A few bad breaks, a bad replay challenge, and a few missed passes was what separated your team from the W. 1
Success Posted January 12, 2021 Posted January 12, 2021 15 minutes ago, TylerD said: Good luck this weekend folks! I'll be cheering the Bills on, should be one hell of a game. Thanks for the good wishes. I've always pulled for the Colts (especially in the Manning/Brady days!). I watched the replay last night, and still can't believe the Bills pulled it out. In many ways, the Colts dominated that game. There are no real weaknesses that I can see on that team, and they have a lot of great young players. Bright future ahead, imo. And I think there has been way too much second-guessing of Reich. Fortune generally favors the bold, and he was bold - if those plays were executed, people would be praising his aggressiveness. That's just how the game is. He coached an excellent game and had that team ready to play. 5

The "connection" between Josh and his receivers is finally here this year (and hasn't really been in his first two years). Our WRs know what to do when Josh does this, or that. This was an earlier criticism I expressed about Davis (and it really wasn't fair to the rookie). To have WRs know where Josh wants them, or needs them, to be, when Josh improvises is simply poetry in motion. These WRs, including the rookie, are special to watch along with JA.

I also wonder, based on the comments made by those at the game how Security was all over them about mask wearing, but I don't see one bit of movement from them in this video. Everyone one of these idiots should have been kicked out and have their season tickets revoked. Just stupid! Appreciate the nice words. Why? Cuz it’s as common at Bills games as the SHOUT! song. I was hoping with less than 7k in the stands and ore than a year since ANYONE saw a Bills game live, maybe it wouldn’t happen. Especially given how rare the opportunity was.

Shut down Taylor and win the game. the communication on defense was the issue Saturday. Watch the cover1 videos. or maybe we can fire Frazier and/or McDermott right now.

Well he has been great all season really, but it was really on display in that playoff game. The way he worked that TO to make sure that fumble was reviewed was smart. They were not going to review it at all, or it certainly seemed that way. With time under 2 mins plays like that are supposed to be automatically reviewed. I don't know what the hell that officiating crew was thinking but when he used that TO he surely reminded them it needed to be reviewed. And returning (as they should have) the TO he used. He basically used it to his advantage to inform the officials to do their job. In any event that was just as bad a call as the b.s "INT" earlier in the season imo. 4 minutes ago, Chandler#81 said: Appreciate the nice words. Why?

DisplacedBillsFan Posted January 12, 2021 Posted January 12, 2021 I’m starting to feel blowout. Something like 34-17 Bills win.

However I could not disagree more with the bold. Was a horrible call and they have to be better, especially in the post season. That complete ***** up of a call, after reviewing it I might add, had the potential to turn the game completely around. They cannot and should not have blown calls that are that bad at any time during any game during the post season. Regular season either for that matter, but it's just way more crucial in post season obviously. It's just frustrating, with these playoff teams worked their asses off to get in the post season, with everything the players/coaches put into it to get their teams in position, that a b.s call that was complete hands down wrong has a very high potential to determine the outcome of a post season game.

SCBills Posted January 12, 2021 Posted January 12, 2021 Ravens fan on One Bills Live likes their chances due to the trenches. Certainly a valid hope if you're a Ravens fan. Gut check time for our DL & LB'ers. Milano, Edmunds, Oliver, Hughes, Addison... looking at you.
