We don't have the mentality to win close games

Yes if the game was played at normal temperatures the bills trash these guys

 

We always have excuses, don't we? Like blaming the wind for losing at home to the Pats last year.

We left too many points on the field.   They came back to haunt us. 

1. Milano easy pic6 drop

2. Gabe TD drop

3. Josh misses Isaiah 

4.  Bass misses 

5.  Roten bad snap costs 3

27 points right there.

Putting it simple - when was the last time we won a close game?

if you want to hang your hat on that you do you UK homey. Im still not buying it. To criticize a game like this with hot takes is just weak JMO

[Ross Murdock]

Bottom line... Bills had PLENTY of chances.. Missed FG, Dolphins gave them the game... They didn't take it. Bills still can't win close games.. It's a problem.

Whats our record in blowout games?

 

So losing the close games is fine?

[SirAndrew]

We have valid excuses for that loss. Too many injuries, and a few coaching blunders, but I can’t accept the heat excuse. Miami played in the same weather.

All of that and Miami STILL needed a last second stop...

 

I have no real concerns...just get healthy and hopefully no more long term injuries.

In fairness, the Dolphins missed plays too.

Well did you see that same team play without the wind a few weeks later? 

[dgrochester55]

Injuries across the board, heat exhaustion, bad calls and still Buffalo almost pulled it off.  We will be fine, no one was really expecting an undefeated team were they?

The blowouts are great, but we can't win every game by more than one score.

Just not concerned, they'll be fine.

Are you kidding me? Down two starting CBs, down two starting S, down two starting rotational DL, down basically an entire offensive line and this is your take? 

 

You're right, no longer a super bowl contender because our backups couldn't win a close game. 

 

Turn in your fan card. What a joke.

With everything that happened the Fins should have won easily. They held on...barely.

It's not the losing, it's the way we lost.

 

OK, fair point, I'm probably over-reacting. Just had a **** day and this has topped it off.

The heat and injuries caught up to them this game. No need to overreact

 

Excuses...they still should have won that game... by 10

 

Until they can do it questions like this will be asked

It shouldn’t be free to just say whatever you want on the internet 

[Cray51]

What are we defining as close?  Rams game was tied at half, we dominated them in the second half.

 

you mean one score games?  Yea we’ve been 0-7 recently.  But this team will win plenty of games.

 

let’s stop overreacting
