[YoloinOhio]

 

Bit of a gap there between 1 and 2!

Nice, Edmunds leading the D.  And while the Bills are 1st in Def scoring and 2nd in Off scoring, they’re actually 1st in Off yards per game and 2nd in Def yards per game.  Balanced dominance.

And that is despite them being so far ahead that they have been in soft prevent a lot. I'd say over half the yards Pittsburgh got don't happen if that game was close. But the Bills were content for Kenny Pickett to keep competing 8 yard passes down 20 plus points.. and we had our whole 2nd string D in vs Tennessee in the 4th Qrtr.

The Bills are also 6th in special teams DVOA.

We are one JA17 skipped pass to McKenzie in the endzone from being 6-0..  That was the play..

 

I say we blame McKenzie for that.

Cool part about this clip is that it shows just how important Edmunds and Taron Johnson are to this defense.

There are so many plays the Bills squandered during that game.  Davis not holding onto a TD thrown right in his hands in the endzone was another missed opportunity.  Bills left 24-30 points on the field that game easily.

...or Matt Milano dropping a sure pick-6. It really took a perfect storm of missed opportunity for them not to win that game.

We have great players to be sure on D, but the even bigger part is how well they all play together, fill their role to a T on every play and play within the structure of the defense.  Bills have the most disciplined, technically sound defense in the NFL.

Why were the games close? That's what you should be looking at.

 

They were close because the Bills didn't execute down in the Red Zone multiple times during the Dolphin and Chief games and nobody could catch the ball in the first half of the Raven game. Once they got rolling in that game they were pretty much unstoppable scoring on 4 of their last 5 possessions.

 

Bills are averaging 441 yards a game on offense, 30 more yards than the next closest team, the Lions who just got exposed by the Pats. Literally nobody is stopping them other than themselves.

 

The Bills have punted 7 times in 6 games with starters in the game. That's absurd.

But, his eye test ....

[Big Turk]

Since 2000, the only teams with a larger difference in yardage totals between 1st and 2nd place in offense has been the 2013 Broncos with Manning, the 2011 Saints with Brees, the 2007 Patriots with Brady and the 2001 and 2000 Greatest Show on Turf teams with the Rams. 

 

I would expect that gap over Detroit to grow as the season moves forward.

Bills number 1 in offensive and defensive DVOA, just beat the big kid on the block in their house (not to mention already having beaten the defending Super Bowl champs on the road), lead the league in point differential by far, and have the best QB in the league...

Who is saying this?  I don’t see anyone saying anything remotely close to this?  Anyone.  Sarcasm I suppose?

After Sunday's game, I'm not really hearing it much.

Leading up to it, I still heard/saw a decent amount of Bills/Allen doubt and people saying they weren't at the Chiefs' level and that Allen wasn't at Mahomes' level.

 

Sunday's game definitely seems to have shut most of them up. Except Nick Wright, but he's just a pro wrestling heel persona.

Ok.  I guess I missed some content. I watch pretty much everything bills related posted on YT-  the only thing I really saw was the generalization  “I don’t pick against Mahomes @ home”.  Can’t blame them for that.  I definitely didn’t see anyone say that the bills aren’t on the Chiefs level.  Nick wright was playing his part to rile up the masses. I don’t count him.  He’s an actor.

I think I had this video fresh in my mind.

Even before this week, the Bills were considered the best team by both fans and pundits (just not literally every fan and pundit).  We really can't play the disrespect card this season, not to mention the disrespect card is gay.

Yes, and that was obviously in reference to a debate about whether the Bills are an all-time great team (after playing three recent games that were tossups), not whether the Bills are an excellent team this year especially when healthy.  Why do you lie?

Fans in Denver have to be very frustrated, given that they have one of the best defenses in the league and got Mr Unlimited. Only to discover that Russ can't cook. 

 

Wilson has definitely taken Denver for a ride.

No, there are still fans on here that think the Bills can't beat the Chiefs in the playoffs.  Those same fans probably wont believe we will win the super bowl if we get there no matter who the opponent is.

and what percentage of the forum are those fans?  1%?  2%?

 

we have to stop getting frustrated that not literally every Bills fan, opposing fan, or pundit will bow down at the sight of our mighty Bills.

You called the eball a liar because he made a joke.  I pointed out you were wrong.

Milano is going to put the kibosh on these fools next go around. It’s like Joe Davola says… he’s kiboshed before and he will kibosh again.
