Bengals @ Bills - 2nd Half Game Thread - January 22, 2023 - NFL Divisional Round Playoffs

Why aren't they throwing deep passes now??  Too funny.

[Coach Tuesday]

This game exposed some terrible takes batted around here the past few weeks.

The offense has been disjointed since the break.  It had its moments and made some plays, but I'm not sure it's put together a complete game since the break

 

The moments were, for the most part, conjured up by Josh.

Romo with the fat chew in his cheek. Nantz about to lose it

Next year….

No super bowl favorites.  No Josh Allen mvp watch.  No Tuesday night Allen interviews with Kyle Brandt.  No locker room karaoke.  No 50 billion interviews with Pat McAfee.  No Von Miller podcast introspectives.

 

I love this team and always will.  But they were reading their own press clippings this year.  And this is the product.  The coaching has been terrible but there has been a lack of energy since kickoff 

I see it differently.  I think the media overhyped them.  They were a contender, along with KC, Cincy, Ravens, Chargers, Eagles, Cowboys.  I think they did a very impressive job staying competitive through many injuries. I do think that Bills overestimated McKenzie’s ability to play slot.

Remember when people were sayin the Bills were saving Hines on offense for the playoffs? Dorsey sucks just as much as Frazier. He is actually worse since Frazier has had to deal with injuries all year. 

Dorsey could easily be mistaken for Nate Hackett or Rico Dennison but for having JA at quarterback. 

[TheFunPolice]

Oh we were missing a couple lineman...

 

Didn't stop the Bengals

This game was over when Josh overthrew a wide open Diggs on the first series. Another touchdown he left on the field. 

Yes and it’s a one score game if Davis doesn’t drop essentially a fair catch

There will be plenty of talking heads picking Miami to win the division next year. You can count on that. 

They probably will. They outplayed us each game

Now Josh takes the easy completions.

Because the Bengals are playing off now. 

[Low Positive]

I hope some guys in orange end up in Buff General tonight.

Another disappointing game by Diggs,  can you imagine if we kept the puck and drafted Jefferson

It looked like he was wide open on our last shot to the endzone, instead Josh threw it to a covered Davis.  Not that it would have likely mattered...

[goldenboy81]

Embarrassing loss at home. Hearing the who dey just makes it worse

or NOT and say he did. Rubbing it in? Meh Im not a fan.

Well, he should play that as a soundtrack of his offseason and figure out how to unlock Unicorn Josh every week next season if he wants to win a SuperBowl

[RiotAct]

Think the NFL could make it happen?  Divisional Round, we’d stabd a chance, LETSGOOOOOOOOOO

[Barnaby Wilde]

And Josh goes out like a LOSER!

[phypon]

HA!!!!  Oy Vey!!

That doesn't excuse the offense's performance today though. Everything looked so disjointed. Run game was mediocre, pass protection bad, no quick passing game schemed open. Worst offensive performance of the entire season at the worst possible time.

Worst OL game all year imo. Worse than last week, and that was horrendous. At some point they have to realize that Josh TRULY needs guys who can legitimately block for him. He runs for his life week in and week out EVERY time he steps on the field. 

[HurlyBurly51]

and for good measure...PICK!
