Since1981 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 YES! DOME caused it. I want one, Josh long ball could use one. Going out on a limb here.... I think maybe GM, HC, DC, OC, O and D played bad before the dome caused any of this 😕 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I didn’t read through all of the comments but here’s what I noticed as it relates to the weather yesterday: for some reason, either coaching or player on-field experience, the Bills seemed utterly unsure of their footing. Nobody was making cuts. On offense, our ball carriers, including Josh refused to stick their foot in the ground and go north south and our linemen were getting pushed straight back like tackling sleds. On defense our linemen were simply Bull rushing, seemingly afraid to attempt to bend around their offensive tackles. Again…I’m not sure why. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I like to be comfortable watching a game. Driving 4-5 hours, tailgating in may be less then ideal weather and then trudging too and from the stadium, I'm a wimp and would love to not then be shivering (or wearing multiple layers).

I think you’re misreading the point of this thread. Read my post above. There was something clearly odd about how the Bills played on that turf yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had a dome we would have won There's not surface or weather factor that would make our sorry DLine and OLine any better. Both teams had the same footing. We just got demolished by a better team with better coaches. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damar Hamlin in the locker room before the game?? 🤔 "Let's win this one for Damar!" So, nothing from that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with your observation.  It seemed to really affect only one team.  Bengals looked like they were cutting fine. Bills seemed to be on skates. I feel the bills really never played well all season of the elements were bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billieve420 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I am not in the camp that we would have won in a dome. Cincy clearly dominated us on both sides of the ball. However, I will say that the weather doesn't provide any advantage to this team. Bills are a finesse team that are just not physical enough. They play like a track team that would be better off playing in ideal conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, nothing from that? It appears not. If this was Hollywood it would have been enough to win us the SB. I think that they were likely to lose this game no matter how pumped they were as they were so poorly prepared with schemes and strategy by coaches on both sides of the ball. The snow made it worse but I think that the Bills in their current physical and mental state probably lose this game 9/10 times. The only way they might have been able to get a victory is if Burrow had been injured early on or if their coaches had actually cooked up something special in strategy, which sadly they appear to be completely incapable of doing!
