People sure love to overreact to one game.

 

Down 5 defensive starters

down our Center

3 muffed snaps - one costing us a field goal opportunity

out gained them 2:1

offense was literally crawling back to the sidelines after plays they were so tired

Allen missed one big throw this game, it cost them

Milano dropped Int

 

i mean guys Cmon… let’s calm down

How does any of that matter? The fact remains, the W was there for the taking, on more than one occasion. Great teams overcome adversity and find a way to win close games.

Umm, about 80% of the players cramped up. How did his dumb ass not have them prepared?? 

He started fluids after last game do you seriously think the coaching staff ignored the heat? They simply didn’t have enough humans to deal with 20+ play offensive drives. Some of these takes man…

Normally having only two doesn't kill you but i mean you could just feel early in the second half that this game was going to come down to the wire so I'm curious when we burned that first time out and was it really worth it?

After Moss's long run.  The oline was exhausted and we weren't gonna get the snap off in time.  Then we ended up missing the FG anyway on that drive

Did JA hurt his hand?

People are being unrealistic if he drops when he catches it it’s a 66 yard FG 

 

If we did get the spike off that's exactly what we're trying for. We're talking about not even getting the chance. I know he probably would have missed & that's not why we lost (looking @ you Gabe Davis dropped TD catch, Bass missed FG). But just imagine if Bass had hit from 66 yds. 🤔🙄😆

That still baffles me.  Pressure helps the rookies.  Frazier out thought himself, like is apt to do.

Frazier says it’s the head coach he doesn’t like to blitz

All they can do is give players fluids.  WTF you expect.  Miami players were cramping and dropping too and they are more acclimated and in the shade.  Give it a rest.

 

Bill Belichick too his team down to Miami 4 days before the game. Not one of his players had to be treated for cramping or dehydration. Just sayin

[Since1981]

Not coach fault on heat. Some calls. 

 our D was a shell after all men down.

Gee, one corner on field barely from practice squad Friday. 
On 3rd center.

Yeah, it sucks we couldn't close it out, but there were extenuating circumstances and it is only game no. 3 in a 17 game season.  If we continue to lose close games, then we can discuss it being a problem.

Tired of hearing excuses and the give them a pass it's only one game stuff.  They were in position to win on multiple occasions, no more excuses.  It's been the same story for the last few years.  Need to get over the hump.

So?  You think we lost this game because we didnt bring our broken ass injured players down 4 days early?

Will have to check out the long blog that is sure to be on Banged up Bills, but to my untrained eye it looked like his hand had cramped up as they were hydrating him and massaging his hand...

You never know with Allen as he take a lot of hits and Miami was giving him the business on the ground, but I don't think it was an injury

[Billever76]

Mckenzie only had to run obo

It's one thing to not blitz but entirely something else to only rush 3 on 3rd and 22.

But New England didn't have one issue with the heat. And it was hotter that day. Do some research clown.

He tried. He couldn't get there.

Research King over here completely ignoring the point of our already depleted roster

Not necessarily. But you can't explain how most of the Bills players cramped up. Some coaches know how to prepare.

They never drafted or picked up a runner. This has been their problem 3 year a plus. And 1 is a horrible down for the Bills. Most of this forum loved the Cook pick though. 

Ignoring the offensive line is the bigger issue. Taking Benford over Parham was a dumb move. Spencer brown has looked awful and Doyle was a waste too. Melvin Ingram isn’t awful but he destroyed us today all day.

Probably because they half assed it out there and were happy to just not get embarrassed and injured. Bills have become Miami's Super Bowl on the other hand.
