Singletary was Buffalo’s best player!

 

It’s great to have more balance.

 

Team has the ingredients to go on a huge run.

If Devin can continue to get a few more touches and plays like he has last couple games along with our DL front getting pressure like they did today, then we will be really hard to beat. Matt Ryan made completed some passes here and there but Bills D got pressure on a pretty consistent basis I thought

Josh's 2nd INT kinda looked like a miscommunication with Bease from what I could tell....however I have got to give that CB some love because that was one hell of a catch..

concern of mine.  Seem to be more miscommunication Ints this season

Look at you! Coming in here just to post something dumb. You should be proud!

Ugly ugly win. Get your hearts ready to be crushed. The only remedy is a superbowl victory.

Very half empty/half full situation.  I see it as we couldn’t throw the ball and we still absolutely steamrolled them

Good time for the running game to emerge. Hopefully Allen got his passing struggles out of his system.

Yes, the offense needs to be able to run the ball well when defenses or the weather stifle the passing game.

 

I have been consistent in saying that the RBs are not the biggest problem with the run game.  Singletary, Moss and Brenda are a good enough combination for a good offense.  The complaints abut Singletary’s and Moss’ speed is way overblown.  Maybe, with some commitment to the run game, the OL could be adequate at run blocking.

We are one Josh Allen slip from the #1 seed.

 

Or some dubious officiating in Tampa.

[Straight Hucklebuck]

Good enough for me, got the win and Allen is on his way to 700 yards rushing.

Thought Beasley was blocked and Josh didn't realise until it was too late.

 

The tipped picks were unfortunate; Prescott nearly had an INT just now but got away with it.

[PromoTheRobot]

Yep. Who knew how much this would cost us?

A loss to an NFC team has less impact than an AFC loss.

Or a terrible loss to a horrible Jags team or a weak effort week 1 against the Steelers…

Yeah because it looked like Bease slowed down and wasn't expecting it to come his way. That's what it seemed to me anyways....

[D. L. Hot-Flamethrower]

Serious question. Did the all the passes early setup the running success later, or was the defense overplaying the pass right from beginning and we should have been running instead of throwing every down?

[SoMAn]

Isn’t the first time since (1996?) since the previous years’ 4 finalists are in the playoffs? 
 

Thought # 2:

a game of inches. If Josh doesn’t lose his footing in final 4th down attempt in Tennessee, it’s very possible the Bills could’ve been sitting in the top spot in the AFC with final game at home with Jets.  Would’ve could’ve should’ve.

You have to attempt runs for it to emerge.

This win, a victory over the Jets sets up a home play off game against NE.   If the Browns beat Cincinnati next week this all changes.   I will savor this win and worry later.

Not gonna lie I would rather avoid the Cheaters altogether - not because I don't think we can beat them, but because I don't think I could take it if we don't

True - we have quite a few of onlys this year though. The blocked punt against the Steelers?

[RunTheBall]

Important W obviously

 

First time I’ve seen this team change their approach drastically mid game and it worked near perfectly. Loved the smash mouth football, loved that they are learning to win without Josh having a superstar day. That’s important this time of year but clearly we need good Josh in the playoffs to have success.

Oops. Looks like a couple of you had the same thoughts about Titans game, posting just before mine.

He still kinda had a superstar day on the ground though. 15 carries 81 yards 2 TD lol
