Playing in Buffalo really gets the opponents excited. They enjoy the atmosphere. Even Skylar Thompson said it was a dream since he was a little kid to play in the environment he was at yesterday. A team like Cinci will be fired up to play in Orchard Park and shut the fans up. Just hoping their O-line woes turn the tide towards Buffalo. So should we not be as loud as we can and throw them a curveball and be silent? I mean come on, playing in our stadium with our fans going absolutely crazy is tough. Doesn't matter where we play the Bengals just like the Bills will be fired up. To say it will fire the Bengals up more to play at high mark is a bad take imo. 1

A little more specificity please. In your opinion is Allen the only one who deals with dropped passes and wrong routes? I get it he’s our guy but he isn’t playing well right now. And the Diggs play was a clear incompletion. We didn’t get jobbed on anything that play. 1 3

Warriorspikes51 Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 The Bengals are scary. However, their performance last night makes me fear them a bit less. 1 3 1

The Bengals have scored over 30 points three times this year. It was against the Falcons, Steelers and Panthers. Looking at their roster, it seems like they should score 35 points at will, but for some reason they don’t. 7 1

Logic Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) There seem to be four equally loud and insistent camps of Bills fans right now, and none of them have it completely right. Camp 1: Any and all offensive struggles are Ken Dorsey's fault. He stinks. Camp 2: Any and all offensive struggles are Josh Allen's fault. He's too careless. Camp 3: Any and all offensive struggles are the fault of the receivers and the offensive line. Camp 3: Everything is fine. I love the Bills. If you criticize any aspect of their play or gameplan after a win, you're just being a Negative Nancy. Each of the camps is somewhat right, but it's not as simple as any of the three camps are saying. Some of the offensive struggles ARE due to occasionally unimaginative or disjointed play calling or play design by Ken Dorsey. Some of the offensive struggles ARE due to Josh Allen's wrecklessness or disregard for situational football. Some of the offensive struggles ARE due to dropped passes and blown protections. Some combination of adapting to a first year play caller's offense, Josh's impatience and fearlessness, and miscues by skill players and linemen are leading to stretches of ineffective offensive football. We can all see it. At times, it keeps inferior teams in games, when the Bills should realistically be blowing them out. Despite this, the Bills still ARE winning games. They've won eight straight. They're in the divisional round of the playoffs with a 14-3 record and the #2 offense and #2 defense in football. Dorsey and Allen and the skill players and linemen all deserve some share of the blame when things go poorly. Dorsey and Allen and the skill players and linemen all deserve some share of the credit when things go well. It IS okay to critique different aspects of the team AND still be happy they won and concede that they are, overall, very good at playing football. I am very happy that the Bills are so good and that they won a playoff game yesterday. I also think they'll need better performances by all of the above mentioned entities in order to win a Lombardi, and that in a game as complex as football, rarely are things as simple as many fans want to make it seem by picking their favorite scapegoat and assigning all blame to them. Enjoy the ride, celebrate the wins, critique what deserves to be critiqued. On to Cincinnati. Edited January 16, 2023 by Logic 5 1 1

Exactly, good or bad the guy leaves it all on the field and does pretty much anything you can ask for to win. Are the mistakes maddening at times, yes they are but I have faith when we need a play in the most dire of times 17 will make it. 2
Dr. Who Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 2 hours ago, peterpan said: I can’t see us winning this game. Bills have been playing poorly for the final 2/3 of the season. They are a good team so they win even tho they play poorly. And that Miami game - wow. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the Bills play a worse game and still win. Maybe a few losses this year would have woken this team up and they could have refocused? we will have to see an entirely different team take the field this week, or I think we lose big. Miami was dreadful and we were lucky to win. I was embarrassed to be wearing bills gear at a bar watching that Miami debacle. We play even a little like that v the bengals and it’ll be 50-13 You should have wore your Peter Pan gear. It was an odd game and Miami played like a team with nothing to lose. Bills heavily invested in the Dline. Even without Von, have to find a way to pressure Burrow behind a beat up Bengals oline. If Josh dials it back a bit and doesn't just try for kill shots and Dorsey remembers we can gain yards on the ground, it's certainly a game that can be won. 1 1

Johnnycage46 Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Interested to see how the Bengals O-line injuries turn out (specifically their right tackle who left the game last night). If the Bills can get a little pressure with the front 4 and get a little creative with selective blitzing, that could be a big key to the game. I think if the Bills stop (or at least significantly reduce) hurting themselves, this game should be there for the taking right down to the end. It's going to be stressful for sure. 1
Eastport bills Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Just the way it should be. If you want go all the way, beat the best. We earned home field and this is the time for the 12th man to show up. The crowd must put their imprint on this game. This will be our line in the sand game. Big game Gabe flipped the switch on Sunday and Beasley is back in the slot. Who knows maybe Micah might even show up. Let’s overwhelm that revamped Bengal O-line and place Joe Cool on his derrière.it’s as simple as this, if we play a clean game, without giveaways, no one beats us. 8 2 1
