My god I do not want to be Jordan phillips in that locker room 

Why?  When is there ever accountability under mcdermott?  Siran Neal was equally as bad in this game and nothing will change.  Mcdermott will continue to put the same undisciplined idiots out there.

Josh had his fourth bad game in row. Stats say otherwise but tape will say different.

 

We scored 24 points and were a Godwin spin from being 4-4.

Honestly man troll elsewhere Allen was the best player on the field tonight

Michael Smith sounds horrible reading from a script.

Godwin was literally grabbed by the waist in the end zone 

Both teams players were bumping and there was heavy contact from both teams

[Old Coot]

This was a good but not great win.

 

The D played very well but I'm unsure how good the Bucs' O is.

 

The O played well in the first half and the opening drive of the 2d half. They played with passion.

But after the score they didn't do much after that. They could hev put the game away but did not.

 

Yet a win's a win. On to the next game.

Josh was anything but bad tonight.

 

Josh played well - no complaints here except Dorsey's baffling magic 8-ball playcalling.

Curious about the end of 3rd quarter. 2nd and 1 at Tampa 39. Clock running out, looked like Bills were trying to draw Bucs offside. But they snap the ball with 2 seconds on the clock. Josh gets sacked. Looks like half Bills offense didn't move. Why even snap it? Go to 4th quarter, you have 2 chances to pick up a first down, maybe extend the drive, kick a field goal, and eat more clock. Doesn't make sense.

McD's record on calling those defensive TO's on key plays is astoundingly bad. 

It appears he doesn't understand that the opposing team can simply call a different play!

I think the idea is that the opposing team can’t use the play (or at least the formation) they like best but have to go to plan B. Same as when this is done in basketball. The downside, IMO, is that it gives the offense time to think, whereas they would probably be scrambling otherwise. Based on the results, it doesn’t look like its made any difference but of course there’s no way to know for sure.

It runs as many seconds off the clock before the kick.  Once in a while a team does jump.

 

Someday they will snap the ball while the D is asleep, but you don't do that against the NFC Tampa team.

Dig it.

 

How'd it work out? Still nearly lost to another backbreaking last second play. Never should have come to that

Dorsey called an incredibly good game today.  Like very very good.

However that works in the hurry up fast paced offense, whenever we slowed down into the huddle offense, like at the goaline we struggled. Like on the 4th and goal play that made me want to slam my head through my keyboard.

324 air yards in a league with all around bad QB play. These same contrarian mouth breathers that think Josh is the problem will also pat Baker on the back when he loses and throws for 180

[davefan66]

Just got home from the game.

 

- A win is a win.

 

- Seems the refs inserted themselves too many times.  First quarter PI looked like a terrible call from where I sit.  Looking forward to the replay to see what really happened on all the ref calls.

 

- Let Josh run..and run…and run.

 

- Hurry up worked great.  Then….it seems they abandoned it?  Why??

 

-  Nice special teams plays tonight. Great punts.  Coverage.  Returns.

 

- Need a consistent rush.  Mayfield??

 

- Please. Please. Please. Stop the 4th down trying to get them Offside.  It. Doesn’t. Work.

 

- Lastly?  THAT WAS A SAFETY!

W is all that matters.  

 

5-3, and we looked elite for good portions of the game.  Obviously, we have to work on closing.  

 

But the W is all that matters.

I think that was all sugar Josh

He won’t…cincy can score on this defense quickly…the bucs basically conceded the game tonight with that long drive and we were like oookay lol. Literally everything went their way, balls bouncing off guys heads, balls getting tipped and caught/picked, boneheaded penalty by Jordan Phillips, and they still just couldn’t move the ball fast enough to win

We scored 24 points and were a Godwin spin from being 4-4. Bills still need to figure some things out.

You are crazy to think Allen had a bad game. The stats say otherwise because the reality is otherwise.

75% completion

325 yards passing

2 pass TDs

1 INT

8 YPA

107 passer rating

41 yards rushing

1 rushing TD (that was actually difficult, not a tush push)

 

That would be the best game of the year for like half the QBs in the NFL. He was handcuffed in the second half by coaching.

Two bad plays from Allen IMO.  One wasn’t very meaningful.  The rest of his was solid.

 

Three fourth downs in a row and all flukish.  That’s the only reason it was even close.

I've defended him for the past two years but his game management is suspect 

[The Wiz]

Really interested in knowing the snap count for Norman.  I didn't hear his name all night.
