Dallas @ Buffalo Postgame Thread

[BillMafia716ix]

The Bills had two coordinators who couldn’t figure out that Josh Allen is a better QB with a running game behind him! It’s shame it took this long but I’m loving it!

Great complete dominating win,  our best complete win against a legit Super Bowl tender playing their best football.  Signature win of the year

[Georgia Bill]

Last week when we won I felt relieved that we got the win in a tight game and lived to fight another day.  This one is different - such a dominant performance against a top tier opponent has me thinking about more than just surviving our way into the playoffs.  If we can keep this up we will be a force to be reckoned with - and it really does feel like all the pieces are coming together at the right time.  I understand we have to play one game at a time but I'm certainly feeling way more optimistic now.  Go Bills!

Did Micah Parsons play today?

[DuckyBoys]

we blew out the Cowboys and Josh basically took the week off  Gotta be good for his psyche to have a run game to take the burden off having to carry the team

[Taro Nimbus]

So how will the media play this?  Is it more about what the Cowboys didnt do, or did they just have an emotional let down game.  We all know the Bills will get no credit for this beatdown.

It'll just be "what's wrong with Dallas" all week.... and that's fine.

We are a 59 yard field goal in the rain away from being 3-0 agains the gauntlet we all pointed to when the schedule came out.

 

I will be in Miami.   I think it’s going to mean something.

 

I think the Fin Fans are puckering up.   THIS game was the mental and emotional “cushion” they built into the NFL’s last four weeks.

There was clearly something wrong with Micah Parsons from the very beginning of the first series.

Minimal jump, no power, sucking wind 4 plays in; he wasn't right tonight.

OK, ice water time. Maybe because it’s nearly 2am here so tiredness is bringing me down slightly.

 

Excellent win today. But for all those calling out the fans who criticised McDermott and thought his time might be up - this is why. The potential of this team could be seen. As it is, the Bills are still in a dicey position heading into week sixteen. Results went against them but they’re relying on that because of poor calling and executing before the bye. The poor calling and executing which falls on the head coach.

 

Maybe they’re heating up at the right time. Maybe they cut a swathe through the AFC and make the Super Bowl. The only team I really fear is the 49ers (though the Bengals seem to be something of a nemesis). But there are three games to go of the regular season and, if they don’t make the play offs, or fail in a particularly Billsy way if they get there, I’m sure the pressure will return on McDermott.

 

Great win but far too soon to gloat or think all issues have been sorted. I think most of us thought the Bills were well on their way after week four.

I mean, it's funny, and a perfect comment, but just the fact that that was Josh Allen out there was exactly the reason why we were able to run the ball like that today.

 

True.

 

They were so focused on Allen that Dallas often missed his exchange with Cook and would bite on the misdirection flowing to Allen.

 

Cook does not need a lot of room to chew up yards and make a few guys miss.

If the bills win out, and Miami loses to Dallas or Baltimore and the bills, with both Miami and Buffalo finishing at 11-6, who wins the division? Would it be buffalo because they beat Miami twice?

Does Brady get HC interviews 

I mean depending on how far we go you never know, owners do crazy *****, he should realistically take an obvious locked in promotion to the true non interim OC here. He knows the team and coaching staff, knows the players, and it's Josh ***** Allen. If he does get the offer to skip the OC job I'd hope his experience being an OC before he was ready or in a bad situation would caution him to take his time to get the experience and wait for the right opportunity.

[KingBoots8]

Perfect game of taking what they give you. Passing in a bad weather game got limited results. How did we respond? Ran the ball down their damn throat. Then we occasionally pepper in a few passes to keep them honest. Absolutely imposed our will on both sides of the ball, and made one of the top MVP candidates look completely lost.

 

Celebrate  tonight. Tomorrow we prepare for a LAC team that got embarrassed and are looking to play hard for their interim coach. Don’t overlook a damn thing, and be prepared to do what we did tonight.

Yes we'd have the head to head.

Yes, if we both finish 11-6, we win the division due to the head to head tie beeaker.

Living in Dallas is going to be glorious this week. I get the Bills news on-line and Cowboys on local broadcast TV.  Ahhhhhh……

Dawkins just wanted to see how far Cook would get, defender was just along for the ride.

When a big strong O-Linemen gets a skinny fast guy on skates it's no contest.

 

Agreed on the Dawkins take. He is moving really good this season taking good angles, playing with strong hands, balance and leverage.

 

This whole OL has come together well. Protections, passing the right guy off, picking up stunts and blitzes, getting to the 2nd level and playing to the whistle. They are just working hard for each other as a cohesive group like I have not seen in years. They have always had some good players, but injuries and a few weak links have been enough to spoil those efforts.

 

Great to see the big guys get to shine in these games and get a little recognition.
