Blaming the refs? What major calls did they miss without impacting the Bills on other calls to even it up?

 

They did get a couple of favorable calls - I thought that was PI in the endzone, and the offensive PI on Henry was kind of phantom.

 

But we had a couple of those go against us too. It was pretty even.

Josh flipped a switch back on in the 3rd quarter that had been off for several games, looking to hit several deep balls.  If Gabe catches his, we're talking about a 300 yard 4 TD game.

More then anything Gabe Davis and his inconsistency is driving me crazy. You can’t have a number 2 receiver drop passes right in his hands 

Josh looked a little frustrated with him which says a lot, he typically doesn’t frown at teammates. 

[Donuts and Doritos]

In the first half, my wife ran out the door yelling there's a bald eagle flying over the house. No one flinched from watching the game.

He was in for a few plays after. His only run was a 1 yard loss.

IMO Cook has earned a lot more time on the field.

We don't have a #2.  Gabe Davis is a #3 Wr

Might as well stop throwing to Davis, he is just not that good.

The PI on Elam was soft, too.  He was just trying to lessen the massive push off he received.  Like you said, the lousy officiating evened out.

Considering your sons think you are jinx, perhaps she was trying to distract you? 😁

Heat of the moment, you throw to who's open.  We definitely can't sink any more money into the guy though, even if he does show up in the playoffs.

I’m ready to turn the page to “Playoff Gabe Davis”, don’t blink.

3 catches on 10 targets is awful.  He's playing his way out of WR2 IMO.

[Nelius]

Schopp saying both Hill and Waddle got banged up today. 

[Process]

How did Allen look today? I was only able to watch like 10 minutes of the game and it was the drive he threw a pick. He looked real shaky that drive. Otherwise okay?

First and foremost it’s been a roller coaster of a week and it’s so great to see the progress Damar has made. Bills got the win and did what they needed.
 

Big contributions by Hines and Diggs. Would include Josh but the lack of situational awareness in the RZ has to stop. You can’t giveaway easy points.

 

I think Jones was sacked only once. This DL has to make an impact in the playoffs.

Not sure why it took Frazier so long to adjust defensively. 

 

T Jones with an inexcusable mistake and Gabe has to get more consistent. McKenzie was a non factor. Motor and the entire offense has to know about NE punching the ball. 

 
On to MIA! 

 

 

Taiwan has done this a couple of times this season. I can't remember which games,  but they were short, bouncing punts. Hines waving Bills off. But Jones walks up real close to the moving ball, like he's daring it to touch him.

Very shakey in the first half.  Settled down and made some great deep throws in the 2nd  half.

It's a huge concern heading into the playoffs. He's dropping passes, not dragging his 2nd foot by the sideline, having trouble separating in single coverage. I mean he isn't doing anything well right now and he's supposed to be our #2 target. Forget the tough catches, right now he's missing the easy ones. What the hell happened to him?

He got muscular. 

[daz28]

Gabes only 23.  Even if we used a late #1 on a WR, there's little chance he comes in and gets 900yds and 8TD's.  I'm definitely not giving up on him.

He's having brain farts at weird times; it's strange to see coming from a guy who is so perfectly in command of the offense more often than not.

He doesn't trust his OLine and is spending the first second of every play checking his protection and deciding whether and where to move to and I think it's messing with his processing and decision making.

Imo, off
