If we went Monday and lost they'd say we should have used our own facilities to recover ... but McChump is there and should know the team for the right call. And we were fairly healthy 

 

Monday would have been too soon; they needed a day to recover. They could have even used the facilities on Tuesday then flown out. But it never should have been later than Tuesday night, especially as the UK is ahead. If they took a flight at, say, 10pm, then would have landed around 9.30am Wednesday. Then they'd have to adjust accordingly, but at least they would have had four days to do it.

It's week to week, you look bad one week this team is awful, we look good one week it's superbowl baby!!!. Stay level headed and in the middle is my way of doing it. There are always negatives and positives every game but unfortunately not many here can see both. 

I think that's part of the problem for us fans.  The up and down see-saw team makes it hard to figure out who they really are.  At this point, a .600 team.

Dude. Again… They played in London before. Was at the game. Was brutal too… A loss to Jags also oddly enough playing the same way… Team did not show up until it was way too late. 


That was in 2015, the current coaching staff and group of players have collectively never played in London before.

If you don't understand the significance of one team being completely rested in a London game versus one team not I suggest you look at the stats when both teams are coming there to play versus their normal stats.


I mean we can cry about that if we want.

 

But we played like dogs on offence. You read your stats all you like. Our playcalling was ass. That’s not a result of tiredness.

See like, the team just isn't constructed in a way that will maximize the offense ... you have a defensive head coach and an inexperienced, unproven offensive coordinator trying to maximize an MVP-level talent in Josh Allen ... it just seems destined to fail.  Imagine Josh with a Shanahan, an Andy Reid, hell even Brian Daboll ... these sorts of garbage offensive games just wouldn't happen.  And that's ultimately on ownership.  Do you want to ***** win, or not?

It's not the loss.  Yes, the game was awful and the refs were some of the worst I have ever seen.  But it's not the loss.  That was always a possibility trying to play a professional football game on basically 1 night's sleep in 3 days.  The decision to leave so late in week was a terrible one.  Regardless, it's not about the loss.  We're going to lose games this season.

 

What this is about is the injuries.  And not just the injuries, but the major injuries to the most important players on the defense.  By the end of this game, we had 6 starters on defense out.  And for some of those players, it is going to be multiple weeks, if not the season. 

 

This is the real issue with this game.  Enjoy that extra international money, NFL.  Probably just cost us a chance to win anything this season.

You wanna bring Daboll back? After how the Giants look??

Bills had both starting CB out, one starting DE out and the other limited to 10 snaps, best LB out, and starting DTbout. 
 

That’s half the defense out, and arguably 5 of the top 7/8 defensive players out (White, Miller, Milano, Groot, Jones). 
 

I don’t blame Bills for flying over on Thursday night. I think that’s what many experts recommend. 
 

I do think it’s unfair to allow the Jags to have 2 consecutive games there
