Bills play like this vs the Bengals it’ll be a long game.

Stop with this dumb s%*+. They won, that’s all that matters. Some of you need to let games actually be played before you start whining and pouting about the following week

I seem to recall saying division games worry me, no matter what.  They gotta clean up their act, but that was a weird game all around.  I think it was a hard reality check.  Hopefully it shocks Josh into realizing he doesn't (and shouldn't) try and hero ball it the whole game.  McD and Dorsey really need to have a talk with him.  I still think Buffalo can beat anyone, but they need to settle down and play a disciplined game.  Josh keeps going for home runs, this team's gonna Casey their way out of the playoffs.

This is where the offense was different with Daboll.

Not at all. They did similar things. It’s Josh Allen. He goes for your throat.

The Bills hit an emotional wall today. I was expecting it at some point after the Hamlin incident. They were very lucky to win but I’ve witnessed the opposite happen to us so I won’t apologize for the victory.

 

On to the Divisional round. They need to refuel the emotions tank if at all possible.

To be fair this win against Miami is very satisfying knowing they felt they had a chance, only to ***** it away and send them home with a moral victory. 

 

Unfortunately for them moral victories don't count in the post season😂😂😂

Survive and advance all that matters by 1 or 50.

[Freak-O]

Josh needs to stop giving the ball away. Two interceptions and three fumbles today, was it? Sure, all of them weren’t his fault and all of them didn’t end up in Miami’s hands, but still not good enough. 
 

Third string QB or not, Thompson played quite well even though Waddle couldn’t catch anything today.

Don't know if this team can actually improve, which it needs to do, under this coaching staff.

We just won bc a ref called a first down on what clearly wasn’t. The bengals will kill us with that performance

I was hanging out at a friend's birthday today with the game on in the background.  One of the guests, a 420 enthusiast, complained that the game was going really long.  I checked my phone, and to my surprise he was correct.  This game lasted an eternity.  It was exhausting.  The miscues were infuriating.  The inability to run the clock late(r) in the game absolutely blew my mind (in a bad way).

 

Glad that the Bills won, of course, but this type of game is the type of game that I thought the team was well beyond at this point in this regime.

Beasley with 2 monster plays. All day the pass defense was terrible again. This was a 3rd string 7th round rookie QB. I wish there was a way Fraizer could get fired before the next game. This defense is going to cost us a real shot unless this guy gets it together 

[NewEra]

Survive and advance.  Every game is a new game.

For some reason, the refs really, really, really didn't want to call the Fins for delay of game.  They snapped the ball a full second after the clock showed zero NUMEROUS times.

 

Yeah, I was raging at the screen multiple times for that reason.

[TNBills]

Everything the Fins needed to be in that game they got and then some. They needed 3 turnovers, drops by our receivers, special teams plays, defensive TD. Who would have thought that all of those would have come through?

[Sandhill Mike]

Right now, we've got no consistent pass rush and a patchwork secondary.  I pray the coaches come up with a ball control offense next week, would help hide our defensive weaknesses.  I'd love to see some quick hitters to the backs and some slants.  Get Cook the ball in space... the kid has serious wheels.

[Big Turk]

That was an F performance for me. I don't care they won and looked good at times. They played arrogant and aggressive football early on trying to beat the Dolphins 55-3 instead of just comfortably beating them 28-10. 

 

I doubt we will see this again, I think the Bills will be far more restrained against the teams we will be playing from this point forward.

 

Not safe but just not I don't care I'm doing it anyway stupid

Phew!

 

On to the next.

 

My word we will need to play better though.

 

HAHAHA Boomer “I don’t think Josh Allen will be entirely happy with his play”

 

YOU THINK?

It’s partially the mechanics of the call. The ref sees zeros then looks to the ball. It can’t be instant. 

[Casey D]

We win!!!!

It was very frustrating. I get that the clock can get to zero and you can snap it, but they were snapping it well after 0 multiple times without getting flags. Plus, they used all their time outs preventing delay of game penalties too. Just insane.

[Coach Tuesday]

I’m glad Hamlin stayed home for this one.
