Good perspective on how good we were last year

“Even with Josh Allen throwing more INTs than he should’ve, even though they didn’t have the running game they should’ve, even though they lost Von Miller to injury, they still went THIRTEEN and THREE!”

 

This doesn’t even include all the other significant injuries we had on top of all the adversity that we faced and dealt with. All this and still 13-3.

While it still ended in a way none of us wanted it to, I wonder if it came down to running out of gas or having a bad day than the Bengals being SOO much better of a team. While we were watching the game, my wife even said that she didn’t recognize the team that was out there, and before that game, we lost THREE games by a total of EIGHT points! Heck, we even beat KC (the SB Champs) in their house last year.

 

@Success - supports your point of how some let one game define who we were

 

@Aussie Joe and @Dukestreetking, the link is now working. Thanks for the heads up!

Forgot “secondary was decimated by injuries - White, Hyde, Poyer playing injured, Hamlin, Benford missed time and I think Jackson missed time(but could be wrong on that one.

Elam started and Jackson split time with him.  I don't recall if they platooned or if Elam got dinged.  I think Benford was inactive.

Marlowe started at safety and went out about halfway through the game.  Jaquan Johnson replaced him.

Poyer went out and was replaced by Cam Lewis. - about 1/5 of the game.

 

So for about 1/5 of the game our secondary was Tre White, Dane Jackson,  Taron Johnson, Jaquan Johnson, and Cam Lewis.

We were a great team, who circumstances caught up w/ and derailed.

 

We were just blowing teams away in the 1st couple of months, and clicking on all cylinders.  But man, so much happened over the course of the season. Every team has adversity, but it hit a limit.

 

And we just had a flat day against Cincy.  I think largely because of the things that had happened later in the season, but I get that opinions vary on that.  I don't buy the narrative that we're just some regular season team.  We have had very mixed results in the playoffs, but it's not like they haven't shown up for other playoff games.

When you reach the playoffs you are about as good as the last game you play IMO.

 

which means no teams are good except the Superbowl winner even if the winner is only good at winning by cheating.

And despite all of that there are still those here that would have Beane - McD & many others in the Bills franchise be fired 🤔 Go Figure .

There are more fans with CTE than players.

Bills are a great regular season team! 😇


Except, we’re not … All this talk about our regular season success, how good our defense is in the regular season…

 

How many 1 seeds?

 

How do we think the playoffs go if our path is BYE .. Jax at home .. KC at home, with Hyde back..?

 

It matters.

13 wins, 11 wins, 13 wins again…those aren’t collectively great regular seasons?

Takes like this are internet sensationalism at its finest (or lowest, however a persons wants to perceive it) 

 Ok, I'll bite. The Bills were out coached on both sides of the football vs Cinci/playoffs. Josh Allen played his worst game of the season. The Bills couldn't even get the right cleats on their feet in a home playoff game.  All when it mattered the most.

 

Is that better for you?

Do we look at the Eagles this way? How about no,and why is that?

 

The Eagles last game was competitive and not a blow out.

 

Does that help?
